some people have complained that Boomer Shooters are reaching over saturation

In almost any other circumstance I'd agree, but the formula is so well understood by the people making these games that even with as many of them as there are, almost every single one of them is good, meaning there's none of that usual sifting through garbage that typically comes when a genre gets too popular for its own good. When I try to think of a 'bad' boomer shooter from the last five years, there basically isn't one - there's just ones that aren't as good as the others. If I pick up a random boomer shooter, I'm basically guaranteed at least a few hours of solid fun no matter how 'bad' a choice I made.

Based on that, I don't think the boomer shooter renaissance is ending any time soon, and that's fine with me. I've been playing Doom for 30 fucking years. I am never going to tire of this genre.
