  • You started by asking the definition of boomer shooter, which I responded to. Then you added the fact Doom 3 came out in 2005. Since your context was, “what’s the definition of a boomer shooter.” I responded to that.

    Maybe next time frame your question better to get the information you’re looking for?


  • A game is called a boomer shooter based on several criteria. Usually they’re first person. Does that mean a third person shooter can’t be a “boomer shooter”? No.

    Quake III is just one game that boomer shooters are based on. Doom (1993) is a game that boomer shooters are based on too. Neither one is a boomer shooter itself. A Boomer Shooter is a modern creation meant to replicate past play style, video style, and audio style too… It’s more than just “pixelated/voxelated…”

    “Active” is an adjective. You intentionally left out the active part (posts, comments). When you consider we’ve existed for less the month and have 45 posts in Boomer Shooter… That’s 1.5 posts per day, our first month in existence. That’s activity. That’s active. Your cynicism not withstanding Team Red has existed for almost two weeks… It’s growing faster than any of the other communities on this board… Because “activity.” Really, if you understand activity and what it looks like and how it scales… We might believe you know what you’re talking about… Might.

    Pull up a list of Lemmy instances with 100% uptime. That’s not a big list. Look for a location in the U.S. you find an even smaller list. And if your monolingual and speak English bestest… well, then you’re in the realm of a vary small list indeed.

    lemmy.ninja is second on that list for size AND speed of growth. Plus, where else are you going to find communities that teach you how to use the Fediverse to your advantage? Drop by and subscribe to the boomer shooter community… We all know they did it right in lo-fi…













  • My humble apologies for not remembering that my providing data for people to do their own research needed to meet with your approval. If it’s okay with you, I thought people would want a complete picture of a current recommendation with easy access to a review. But I sure look forward to your well written posts on the future since you seem to think you know so much on the subject.
