Call me cheap, but I hate EA and don’t want to give them any money on principle, but I’d like to try BF6 and see how it’s changed since the beta.

See, I was way more into the Halo era of shooters that you weren’t as much of a fan of. I’m sure the pendulum will swing back again, but it just hasn’t happened yet. Doom 2016, for instance, was a game I enjoyed, but I was absolutely not looking for more of it by the time I finished it. Metal: Hellsinger was a good twist on Doom’s formula and got me more interested in playing it than Eternal or Dark Ages did. But outside of that, I can’t say I’m too hungry for that kind of shooter. I’m more interested in Phantom Fury than Ion Fury.
Well, boomer shooters are going to wind down soon and I’m seeing more of the other types creeping in, like perilous warp, that have that slower pace to them. I imagine the pendulum, while never as soon as we would want, is coming sooner than you might expect.
I was overjoyed seeing a resurgence of fast paced shooters once doom 2016 dropped. And I think it follows that once the fast paced stuff runs its course, the next style to see a resurgence is going to be the halo-likes.
Yup, I think so, too. It was too important and influential, and there’s too much of a gap in the market, for that to not happen.
