  Oh, they’re definitely better, no question. But by that definition, wouldn’t that make them Boom Shooters?

    Na, because the newer shooters still go boom. But boomer shooters are just boomer. And everybody’s waiting for the coming of the boomest shooter.

      We’ve already seen the boomest shooter. Our savior hath already come and gone and left us behind to witness his passing. His name was Ultrakill.

      I would love to see that take place, so sign me up for the Church of the Boomest Shooter. My only real concern is where do we go from boomest?

        Helldivers 2 wins. You get to drop orbital strikes, launch ICBM nukes, call in cluster munitions, etc.

        That’s the neat part, we don’t. Can’t have the messiah coming for real. Otherwise you get splinter religions.

        Now I feel like playing Messiah.
