| MorgZ said: A good FPS is hard to match from an excitement point of view imo. Developers are also starting to add more elements to FPS (e.g. FPS-RPG hybrid). First Person is also a very good way of positioning a character within a world and allowing them to interact with things. My main concern is that because FPS are so popular there are a lot of mediocre ones. I think people will eventually start to get put off by poor quality titles but there will always be a market for a new COD4 / Bioshock / Resistance2 / Gears2. |
rpg elements in shooters is nothing really new, if i think back i can think of deus ex that had rpg elements 8 years ago and a few others too (system shock is over 10 years nearly 15 years ago).
edit: just looked it up and saw system shock 1 was 1994, so i guess rpg elements in fps are nearly as old as the fps genre
