Does anybody else feel that the fps market is overcrowed. I would love to see some more adventure games ,rpgs, horror, tpses, platformers and action games etc, but every developer is making fpses. Most of them aren't even good, or just complete rip-offs of eachother. So what is your opinion?

 

 I sort of agree. But it's the consumers fault, because FPSs sell.

Personally I think it's very annoying that so much resources are spent on just FPS games. I really like FPS and most of my all time favorites are FPS, but we simply don't need so many of them. Meanwhile those other genres you named hardly gets any games at all. No big budget adventure games are made, only a couple of horror games and not enuff W-RPGs.

I wish there was more first person RPGs made. The best genre, hands down.

 

I don't know why, but I aboslutely despise first person RPG's.

I don't mind shooters being the 'right now' genre. They're easy to pick up and learn, simple multiplayer and a blast to play with friends. While they're far from my favourite genre, I really enjoy that many of my friends are into the genre so that is often easy to get a game going.

As long as there are plenty of other games to choose from, I'm fine with it.
