It’s no great secret that shooters are immensely popular, but the genre has morphed a bit since the early days of Halo and Medal of Honor. This is particularly true in the competitive scene, where games like ARC Raiders, which is much more focused on discovery, exploration, and stealth, manage to wipe the floor with traditional shooters like Call of Duty. This is a good thing: even if I don’t personally like extraction shooters as much as traditional ones, more diversity and experimentation within the online shooter scene makes for a more exciting, richer gaming landscape as a whole.
