the boomer shooter revival genre that the Doom Reboot saga started actually has a good amount of female protagonists.

In fact, it may be the only modern game genre where i can safely say the gender split is roughly half and half with games like Selaco, Ion Fury, Forgive me Father, Hedon, Nightmare Reaper, Project Warlock 1 and 2, Rise Of The Triad, Supplice, Zortch, Ghostware, Beyond Sunset, Viscerafest, The Citadel, Sprawl

There are genuinely so many boomer shooter female protagonist and you know what, and i say this with full confidence as i am very active within boomer shooter communities and follow boomer shooter youtubers like Civvie11 and GmanLives: NOBODY CARES.

Which is a hilarious fact in and of itself since the boomer shooter genre, more than any other videogame genre is DOMINATED by a male audience. And yet they do not care.

Selaco is one of the most beloved and best selling games of that entire genre and it stars a female protagonist that kicks all sorts of ass. And yet not a single outcry of “muh woke” from the community,

don’t know if it’s cos the boomer shooter genre has mostly grown and prospered in the indie scene so there’s less toxicity there or the fact that the devs of these games themselves are openly progressive or if the fanbase of these games is just naturally older therefore they don’t have the time nor patience to engage in culture wars but whatever it is, it’s a nice thing to see
