Shooter games are just not engaging

Far Cry 2 sucked stuff, it was fun f or a little bit but most of the fun just consisted of running over wild animals in buggies. There were the same 3 side missions that you did the same thing for every single time.

Doom3 sucked ass with that stuffty lighting gimmick. Duke Nukem Forever still isn't the same classic Duke Nukem 3d and Wolfenstein 2012 is a piece of stuff.
I'll take my shooter with absolutely no story over the shooter with a story.

I like playing a game like that to every once in a while, that's why I liked Mercenaries so much because it was literally run around being invincible and nuke the stuff out of everyone. But when every single shooter is like that, what fun is there? It doesn't need to have a good story, it just needs to be engaging and more then just take cover and shoot.

I play (and actually ENJOY playing) COD, TF2, Blockland, and Minecraft. I am an intelligent person compared to your idiotic stereotypes.
Stop being an starfish, and actually take the time to think before making a post like that.

Rage for no reason. I didn't stereotype all cod players, so stop with this 'playing the victim' bullstuff.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution was extremely good when it came to making an engaging experience. On the normal or higher difficulties, you really had to think about how to about a situation, because you couldn't just go guns blazing into a room. You had barely any ammo and dying was easy. You would really have to think about how you would want to approach a situation.
And the original Deus Ex was even better about this, you would get absolutely wrecked unless you VERY carefully plotted out how to get past the security of an area, or how to manage to isolate guards and pick them off one by one.

TF2 is so loving balanced. It's fantastic.
