  • Thanks for understanding, most arguments I see on the internet only escalate further, and I appreciate the calm discussion and the compliments

    Looking back on your post history, I do see that people are being too harsh on you. It sucks that people immediately jump to the worst possible interpretation.

    I hope that you don’t get discouraged by these comments, and only look to the genuine discussions for ways of improvement


  • Whoa calm down, While I was a bit harsh, I definitely didn’t mean any hostilities you might have picked up from this.

    Genre names are just names of the genres. They have no bearing on the actual quality of the games that they categorize. There are good games in poorly named genres and bad games in aptly named genres.

    I was just sharing my thoughts on what the industry calls them and wondering what other people thought about them

    I haven’t ever seen a gaming community so happy about closable doors.

    Jokes aside all the hands ons have lowered my weariness about Payday 3 quite a bit. It seems to be backing away from some of the RPG elements PD2 has slowly accrued over the years in favor of being a more tightly designed tactical horde shooter. It’ll be hard going back to only 8 heists for $50, but history’ll probably repeat itself and we’ll be back at 16 or so heists in a mega pack for ~$20

    Still remember, no preorders.

    Boomer shooter isn’t the worst genre name ever, in fact I think it fits the genre quite well. There are certainly a lot of things going boom in a typical boomer shooter, and the baby boomers are only one generation off of the “proper” generation, so it represents its age.

    Certainly better than the -likes, do you guys really want the “doom-likes” term to resurface?
