Looking for a good, not too difficult, single player FPS that gets right into the action without too many story requirements, and is a lot of fun, and is not Borderlands (because I have played them all). EDIT: Forgot to mention I am looking for PS4, XBOX One X, or XBOX Series X. Thanks!
The 2016 DOOM fits these requirements. DOOM Eternal is pretty decent, but honestly I feel like it’s actually a step down from the 2016 release. They added a lot of new mechanics that you have to juggle, and a bunch of plot (euch, gross), and is overall not as good of an experience. 2016 also has a better soundtrack, IMO. BFG Division is one of the best songs ever produced, even outside of game soundtracks.
If you want something a little more unique, I could also recommend SUPERHOT.
Basically, if an FPS puts its name in all caps, it’s probably gonna be a banger. Caps-locking the title of your game requires a certain amount of confidence, I feel.

Ultrakill
Deep Rock Galactic

Half life games are on sale right now. If hl1s graphics are too dated for you black mesa is a remake of the first game that is fantastic.
FEAR 1 is also goated
Half Life is great and all. But both games have insanely long intros.
All the “doom-clones”, or boomer shooters (which I hate that title).
Some not named in the comments - Serious Sam 4, Painkiller, Blood.

Trepang² is pretty fun, kinda a mix of Crysis and FEAR
playing Superhot rn and its pretty great
But it’s only for VR, correct?
It was originally for pancake screens so if you don’t own a VR headset you can still play it. Just buy the correct version though 😁
I’ve been looking and can’t seem to find a copy anywhere.
Its on Steam

Dusk. Ultrakill.

Titanfall 2. Not massively long, but worth every penny. The story is engaging and satisfying, and the action is inventive and fast paced throughout.
And BT is bestest boi forever.
I really enjoyed F.E.A.R.
Trepang² get it meow
Wolfenstein
