    I personally uphold three main categories of FPSes:

    • twitch shooters/boomer shooter - Wolfenstein, Doom, Quake, Ultrakill
    • story-oriented shooters - Half-Life, Deus Ex, Strife
    • tactical shooters - Counter Strike, Call of Duty, Battlefield

    Subcategories are tactical shooters with a story (Halo, Titanfall), hero shooters (essentially just faster tactical shooters, like Overwatch), rougelike shooters (there’s like a game that originated them, forgot its name), etc.
