For me it’s first person puzzle games. I can think of maybe a dozen off the top of my head that came out in the last decade. I especially enjoy when they’re open world. The ability to just quit a puzzle that’s stumped you and go try something else for a little bit is incredibly refreshing.
Ah, yeah, PvP shooters. Gotcha. Those aren’t really my domain, unfortunately, I don’t have a ton of recommendations there. Overwatch was pretty good for a while, but wasn’t really an arena shooter, and now can’t be recommended.
Anybody else remember the game Sauerbraten? Or was that all just a fever dream I was having round 2012?
you can actually still find like 4-5 people playing sauer at most times lol, but its only insta ctf. still a great time to load into every now and then if there are enough people on of course
I would also like some class based hero shooters that aren’t Blizzard or Paladins TBH. I enjoy being the healer/support more than getting kills (though shooting stuff is also fun) and Valorant or Apex don’t quite scratch that itch
