Hello, I'm interested into some good casula shooter's that work on linux. My only requirement is that they shouldn't EVER have to use an external launcher like ea ( have bf3 on steam and the ea launcher just doesn't wanna work ).

I played games like splitgate, halo infinite and battlebit remastered

What is a casual shooter? As opposed to... a serious shooter?

I guess as in a shooter for "casual gamers" as opposed to players that spend 10 hours a day to play CS or CoD online (or whatever is popular atm)

Yup, so probably more Doom or Serious Sam and less Arma.

Okay I can definitely see how Arma is intricate. But if Halo is considered a casual shooter then CoD single player campaign would be casual too right?

Yeah, I'd assume so.

It's also a continuous variable, not categorical.

Some shooters are more casual than others.

@sic_semper_tyrannis @gigachad What about good old #UrbanTerror ?

I'm not sure if people still plays, but I used to have a lot of good fun back in the days 😀
