Surprised you skipped over Goldeneye 007. While the control scheme hasn't aged well (to no fault of its own), the design philosophy behind the game is excellent. There's more to do than just shoot, and I can only think of one or two levels where getting lost is even a possibility. A lot of people sleep on it now because as kids they played it for the multiplayer, but the single player is the main reason to go back to it today. Also, Half-Life 2 addressed all of your issues. Probably one of the best flowing games, never mind FPS titles, ever.

This is a really weird video. It feels like you're taking a common and popular feature (mazes and similar exploration based challenges), and treating it as some archaic relic of technical requirements that needs to be abandoned? They're a key aspect of the kind of dungeon crawling fantasy games that many early games, and in particular, Doom, were inspired by - you are an adventurer deep in a hostile and uncharted environment, surrounded by enemies, and must find your way through to the boss. Hell, this is even where the whole concept of the "boss fight" comes from, they're supposed to be the guy in charge of the "dungeon"! The Goblin King or the Lich or the Rebel Leader. You certainly don't need every FPS to have maze elements, but remember that the 90s also had ridiculously popular first person games like Myst, which was the best selling game of all time for a while and was nothing *but* the kinds of mazes and puzzles that you're deriding here. You might not enjoy exploration based challenges, but it's certainly not some archaic technical relic that developers only used because they didn't know any better.

I actually think Doom 2016 is way more maze-like than the original 90s Doom. I was playing 2016 recently and was totally stumped on where to go (still am lol), then pull up the map and basically went "uh... wat." I maybe got lost sometimes in original Doom but I think 2016 is worse. It looks good at least!

It may be a longshot, but what if fps games use strategy combat to lessen the pace and give a breather for all the hardcore action you like? So you shoot lots of enemies down, lots of fun and then new enemies show up that can be killed, but in another way. Maybe using the terrain, sneaking, hitting specific parts, or they are invulnerable to your normal weapons and you have to find different ways of defeat. Fast action + slow/tense action = fun... hopefully

Yep, can agree. Spending 5 to 10 minutes looking for a single keycard sure is fun. Half-Life 1 did this type of advancement well though, without the keycards.

Considering how in most FPSs you’re supposed to be spinning around 360 degrees a thousand times each second I think your probably just bad mate lol

I got lost on that exact same level in Doom 2016.

I regularly watch horror movies at night and nothing has sent shivers down my spine like that close up of Ronald McDonald.

Did we play different HALOs? Because the HALO I played was one of the most linear games I've ever experienced.

To me, the maze-like level design in shooters is more fun because it makes the action you encounter later more satisfying, like getting rewarded with a boss fight after completing a complex Zelda dungeon. It's far better than Call of Duty's linear gameplay.

Far Cry is a great example of this. It came out as an open fps game and set the precedent for future fps games. Though it was mostly limited to ubisoft in general, so many fps games either fall into cinematic fps games, arena fps games, or open world fps games. Not to mention Battle Royale games. The issue now isn't that we lack choice, but that hardly anything feels new or engaging because there's only so much you can do with an fps game on a controller. The most revolutionary ideas as of late derive from VR games like boneworks and Alyx.

Keycard design hasn't been in rogue since the 1990s. Most designers don't use them, instead it's a module based narrative with usually no more then three separate paths and no backtracking. That's most modern design in FPS. Granted the FPS genre is so varied, with incredible differentiation when compared to the 2000s conventions barely apply anymore. And for the first time since the 1990s the majority of games aren't FPS's and games are taking more risks with an immense amount of genres particularly from Indie devs but still this design ethos is still considered one of the most common if incredibly flawed and some would consider horrible.

Goldeneye 64 might be overrated at this point, but it was an amazing experience for me at the time and definitely helped evolve FPSes, especially for consoles.

@wantspizzadaily1316

I was surprised he didn't fit Goldeneye into his story somewhere

Golden Eye wishes to speak to you.

Funnily when you were discussing full 3D leading to new paradigms I was thinking about GoldenEye/Perfect Dark with open areas, clear missions, few mazes. Metroid Prime with a focus on platforming, and while there is backtracking it’s usually to use a new tool rather than just because of one keycard door (though Prime 2 got keycardy with its dark and light beam doors). And I thought about Dishonored where there’s much more to do than just shoot, but you can still just shoot, and again has GoldenEye-ish missions. But maybe they’re the “sub-genres” you briefly mentioned? Though I’d argue that framing is tautological - if the “core” genre is based on Doom and inherits its features, while things that stray too far are sub-genres, then it’s not surprising that the “core” genre (in your construction) didn’t change much.

I find that fps at least for my tastes works best as an adative, or a framework. For example prey 2016 is one of my favorite games and is definelty not focused on the core fps side of things but just uses it as a framework, and its not jusy fps's but shooters in general. another one of my favorites is resident evil 2 remake. I love the moment to moment game play shooters can bring to the table but with added elements like prey 2016 and resident evil 2 remake do. Thats why i think that games like doom eternal are in a tricky spot because if your just looking at moment to moment gameplay to be the thing that carries the game then it makes things a lot harder to inovate on and change up compared to other genres like platforming, or shooters why add in other elements like story. Btw really enjoyed the video, the main channel stuff and these second channel videos are probably my favorite content on this site currently, whith your editing style and writing and just the topics in general its alot more different than what others are doing which seem to be the same recycled ideas but with new topics. But you seem to have complety changed that, when i first saw your video on pc gaming i was like, "oh great another person whos just going to restate the already said things about pc gaming". But then i watched it and was pleasantly suprised with the new things you brought to the table about the subject, amd youve been doing it consistently with every video. As someone who has been watching since the main channel was uploading history stuff like the ford videos and the wright brothers, Keep up what your doing.

lol this was literally why I stopped playing the first title of new doom, I got sick of walking in circles.

"Mazes, Puzzles, Keycards, & Switches" sounds like a different kind of game altogether...

Yeah that's exactly why I got disinterested in most shooters that came out in the past 15 years or so... I used to love FPS games, they were my favorite genre for most of the late 90's and early 2000's. I thought I was just impatient and bored with this type of game design after playing dozens of similar games but now thanks to you I know I'm not the only one. Anyway, I wish you good luck with this new channel!

I can totally identify with this video. I always lose my directions as well in FPS games - there are so many interesting games out there that I am simply not able to play 🙈

I’m stuck in the damn foundry to. The struggle is real.

A "key card hunt" is no problem for a perfectionist like me.

Kinda funny that you didn't mention Crysis...It had no keycard BS. You had a large mission map that was essentially about getting from point A to point B and even when playing on Delta difficulty with no HUD it's not hard to find your way. Okay, there *are* buttons, but most are actually optional and none are hidden or hard to find. The only level with pathfinding issues is the Zero-G level and that's *on purpose* it's not a maze, it's just disorienting because you navigate a 3d space and the combat forces you to spin around constantly. As frustrating as the level is, I still think it's great level design. The latter part of the game is another topic though :)

I agree with this, especially Doom 2, I don't mind a bit of exploration, but gets pretty ridiculous in Doom 2.

Kind of a hot take. I agree i got lost sometimes in the original doom games. Because it was new level design in a genre that was in its infancy. Alot of stuff was still being figured out. However newer retro/boomer shooters that are well designed i feel have learned from this. I never once got lost in doom 2016 or other games like Dusk, and Amid evil. Similar level designs with key hunting and shit, but made 100x better and more intuitive.

Tells you something about the hype around the DOOM reboot, I didn't even realize it had multiplayer!

Other than in doom 2, it's pretty rare that I have trouble with mazelike level design. I haven't finished doom 2 because of that. I got more than halfway through Sunlust on hey, not too rough, so encounter difficulty was definitely not the problem.

The complaints only applies to old shooters pre 2000, Halo doesn't have this issue. Most games have instant action like fighting games or even platformers, it never was a gradual build-up except for RPG.

Also its just you for not check the map at all even map checking did existed in FPS since 90s. Imo the biggest flaw in FPS was nothing but overused mechanic in every single new title that the developer just launch from Sprint button in other games like Halo to ADS on every single weapon not just Sniper Rifle, which i honestly dont feel any problem at all, but its just made the most favorite FPS looks either off from their previous title as a whole franchise concept in general, not forgeting the nerf of fast paced to go slower as well

When video games were first being created, puzzle games were some of the first created, and they had wonky systems, many of which revolved around collecting items, then using them together, or on an item, because that’s easy to code. Those systems were carried into FPSs, but in a more, brain dead version. They went from being impossibly cryptic, to basically random.. (Also it’s a super easy way to pad out a game’s playtime, which is still done today (looking at you Anthem!))

Borderlands 3 devs really thought "why don't we turn the main hub of the game into a fucking multilevel maze"

I really like the music in these videos, I know that he posts a lot of it on his SoundCloud but it seems not all of it. Anyone know where the rest is?

Overall, I agree with the general premise of this video. Single player FPS isn't even really a genre by itself, it's just a gameplay mechanic/perspective. Presuming that non-stop shooting would get monotonous, it's clear that FPSes need another layer added to be intriguing, whether that's a story, fetch quest, puzzles, or something completely different. But since they're mostly just a delivery system for online multiplayer now, you don't see the sort of creativity you might see in other genres that need a captivating single player experience. And if you change it a lot, then are they even "shooters" anymore? I'm thinking of games like Thief.

So... how long till we start complaining about platforming challenges being in every fps?

I feel like I'm missing something here. The "flaw" you're talking about seems highly subjective. And yes, I know everything is pretty much subjective, there are some things a lot of people will agree on and be a little less subjective, like wanting the shooting in a game to not feel like your hitting paper targets. A lot of people will prefer games that let you navigate and explore the level and some won't care that it's the most basic premise presented. In fact, some might prefer an unpretentious set up of "need a thing to get past the locked thing, kill everything in between." I also don't see how it's specifically an FPS problem, if it even is a problem (which I don't think it is). Finding a key and working your way through a maze can be applied to classic Resident Evil games and other survival horror, Metroidvania's, Zelda dungeons, Souls games, etc.

I don't understand your gripes, it sounds more like you just don't like the genre on itself

Alternative solution: Just play the original Battlefront II instead

you had a problem with THAT doom 2016 level?? wow lol

So youre saying the next gen in fps content is buttons and keycard simulators
