Personally, the whole “boomer” tag isn’t something in my vernacular. There are certain words I don’t really get, but you can see from the description above, where you might fit based on the year you were born. Me? I’m just a little bit young to be a “Baby Boomer” and like much more where I’m fitting: Generation X.
Do you keep up with all the genre tags on Steam? If not, there is a new one with a curious title: “Boomer Shooter” on Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/tags/en/Boomer%20Shooter/)
Steam’s latest genre tag has given the boomer shooter some newfound validation since, for years, the title has been a little controversial around online forums, mainly because Doom and other 1980s shooters were more likely played by Generation X. But I guess the “OK, boomer” meme makes the term easily understandable. How about Doomer Shooter?
