You started by asking the definition of boomer shooter, which I responded to. Then you added the fact Doom 3 came out in 2005. Since your context was, “what’s the definition of a boomer shooter.” I responded to that.
Maybe next time frame your question better to get the information you’re looking for?
A game is called a boomer shooter based on several criteria. Usually they’re first person. Does that mean a third person shooter can’t be a “boomer shooter”? No.
Quake III is just one game that boomer shooters are based on. Doom (1993) is a game that boomer shooters are based on too. Neither one is a boomer shooter itself. A Boomer Shooter is a modern creation meant to replicate past play style, video style, and audio style too… It’s more than just “pixelated/voxelated…”
Warhammer 40k Boltgun
I’m providing a best guess on that. I may be wrong. Who knows maybe it’ll be “xtxt” or xt^2 pronounced “extasy.”
Each one of the graphics in the article is linked to a demo of a boomer shooter with a female protagonist. I even mention a few in the article. I talk about female leads, and then apply them to boomer shooters. I didn’t think it would be that unusual…
Nope, regret to inform you it was written by a human. Was this commented by an AI? Nah, who am I kidding… if an AI wrote the comment, it would have known to capitalize AI…
We whole heartedly support blasphemy!
This definitely gives you one.
As I haven’t seen the Steam Store page for BoltGun switch from Unsupported to Playable I would assume that is what was meant.
This is answered in the comments.
I created a process to remove the bot accounts from my database without crashing my site. I have tested and it looks like all functions are working. If you need help because you suddenly have thousands more accounts than you would suspect ask me for the procedure. I’ll gladly provide it.
I was able to identify bot accounts by looking at creation times. They accounts are grouped by “batches” where the account creation times are within seconds of each other. That’s not typically going to happen with random humans creating accounts.
Could you please create a middle ground between the nuclear option (banning sites) and the whack a mole option of banning users. It would be effective to be able to ban communities (at least temporarily) during bot spam attacks while you wait for admins to police up their site. Could there also be a way for admins to notify other admins that their site is spamming garbage so that admins know that their board is the cause of a problem and what that problem is?
