Yes, gaming ‘journalists’ have reignited the violence in video games narrative as a continuation to last year’s Call of Duty shenanigans, but my escapist fantasies don’t comprise of me throwing flowers at angry demons. If I really want something more narrative-focused, I would go and play some RPGs. All that explanation for why you wouldn’t find games like Cyberpunk 2077, Dying Light 2 etc in this list aside, I couldn’t find a single article on the internet that comprised of FPS games that were primarily focused on the shooting aspect. Hence I made a list for people like me who are searching for such games."
