I, like most guys in their late 30's, played a ton of shooters in the late 90's early 00's.

The last one I tried was Metro Last Light, and I couldn't finish it, it was a chore. I did like Deux Ex: Mankind Divided, and in the past couple years played and enjoyed Fallout 3, New Vegas, and 4. Still, none of those are really shooters, even though shooting is a core mechanic.

I'm not saying their direction is the best -- going more Deux Ex probably would have been more my speed -- but I do understand that they felt the need to change up the formula.
