bearly anyone who's a boomer is playing these games or probs has ever played them short of seeing their kids boot it up. if anything these would be gen x shooters. People don't seem to even know wtf a boomer is. boomer for gen z seems to = anyone over 40 lmao.

Technically, they’re all millennial shooters, because the entire genre was only invented in the 90s and mostly played by teenagers.

In fact, boomers started a whole episode of “satanic panic” about them after it turned out that the Columbine shooters loved to play DOOM.
