Hello.
The past few months Ive been almost exclusively playing fantasy and survival games, so much so that I need a break from them.
Looking for single player FPS recommendations with controller support from the last decade. A good story is preferred.
Games Ive played:
Warframe (dont ask. The lore is okay-ish. I stayed for friends).
Titanfall 2. (PEAK)
Apex Legends (Briefly. The sweatiness and timed lore turned me off).
Doom 2016 (Dropped this, sadly. Gunplay and parkour was AWESOME, but the whole devil worship thing really turned me off).
Dying Light 1. (Okay Story. Awesome fighting. Never played 2 because of the whole controversy with the story director. EDIT: Story writer, not director)
The Metro Series. 1, 2 and Exodus. (Slightly weak lore. Still alot of fun).
Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated.
This should be the top answer for anyone asking for FPS recommendations.
Also there’s no need to justify playing Warframe. It’s fun as hell. Also, you do realize in DOOM that you’re killing the demons and devil worshippers, right? And what controversy with the director for DL2? I played both Dying Light games but the first one is way better anyway.
Yeah, wtf, asking for story yet missing the point in Doom which has the simplest story of them all: demons are bad and you need to kill them to save humanity.
I can’t really help with the topic since I don’t care for story in my shooty-shooty boom booms and prefer to get into action as soon as possible and keep at it, but I guess the Far Cry series has some story in it. Maybe skip the first one since controller support might be iffy. Also Crysis, don’t know about the latter ones but first one is great until a certain point after which it’s okay.
I should have been clearer. Simple story (aka Doom) is more than okay. (I specially loved its beginning. Fuck why Im shooting. I just want to shoot).
Its just the whole atmosphere of the cult that creeped me out wayyy too much. Then came the holo where you someone is being live sacrificed while the crazy head scientist looked on, and I just had to drop it then. Couldnt play anymore.
Tldr: The atmosphere of the cult was a bit too much for me to handle.
And the line for Metro about taking points off for weak lore rubs me the wrong way. Like I’m not necessarily a fan of the Metro series, but I understand why others are.
Like damn, I didn’t realize the recommendations had to be cinematic masterpieces too.

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it’s price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don’t meet the system requirements, or just haven’t had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
