minus-squareUruanna@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoThe term boomer shooter has been around for a couple decades to designate shooters from the '90s like Doom, it’s not a “now” thing. The genre has stayed popular and a shooter doesn’t need to be from the '90s to be a boomer shooter, either.
