Do you even know what RPG means? If you had read my previous replies, then you would know that Tomb Raider is an Action Adventure game. It’s more comparable to a Zelda game than a Doom game.

Games can be more than one genre. If you read my replies, you’d understand that many action adventure games are also THIRD PERSON SHOOTERS. TLOU: Action adventure 3rd person shooter. Uncharted: Action adventure 3rd person shooter. Tomb Raider: Action adventure 3rd person shooter. Metroid Prime: Action adventure FIRST person shooter. Borderlands: First-Person Shooter Action RPG.

GTA is a racing game, because you have cars. Breath of the wild is a third person shooter, because you have a bow and can shooter. Is that where are at? Oh did I already mention that Breath of the Wild is a Jump’n Run too, because you can jump and run? As said, the shooting element of Tomb Raider is not what it makes to be a Tomb Raider. Therefore calling it a shooter is wrong. It is an Action Adventure. You totally ignore the context in what we are discussion:
3rd person shooter equivalent be to “Boomer Shooters”
And Tomb Raider is not that. The shooting element doesn’t matter for the genre it is in. Off course games can be categorized in one or more genres. But depending on the game, its not important for the genre.

You clearly misunderstood the question OP is asking. Doom is the granddaddy of “boomer shooters.” OP is asking what the granddaddy of TPS are, not what TPS games are similar to boomer shooters. 🤦♂️
