Why can't single player first person shooters just be fun anymore?

I don't care about crafting and upgrading, I just want to kill some shit without unnecessary distractions, open world is boring.

pic related along with Wolfenstein The New Order does it right but I don't see any more upcoming games like this.

Without good multiplayer these games are a play once and never play again. Since BF1 cod and overwatch dominate the multiplayer scene it is hard for these titles to take off. People want replay ability in modern games.
>>
>>378657689
Except that game has upgrading
>>
>>378659289
way too much upgrading
>>
>>378657689
Try titanfall 2 the campaign is decent.
>>
>>378659578
waiting for crack
>>
neither of those games did it right based on your criteria
nudoom was fun for 20 bucks at least
>>
>>378659289
except that it's very minimalistic, I meant upgrading things like in Far Cry games
>>
>>378657689
I wanted to recommend you Call of Juarez: Gunslinger because its a good singleplayer shooter, but it too has upgrade mechanics. I can't even recall a shooter released within the last few years that didn't feature a mechanic like that. Serious Sam 3 maybe?

At this point it feels like upgrades and crafting have mostly replaced mastering mechanics and becoming skillful in shooters.
>>
>>378657689
because multiplayer with crafting tacked on is what sells and people want to make money

poorfag, buy the game on a key seller if you have to, it's a good campaign. How the fuck are you going to complain about the quality of games when you're not putting any money into the system for developers to use to make their games better?
>>
>>378661554
OP is a fag, don't question the stupidity.
>>
>>378661554
Because I'm a poorfag NEET, my PC is already getting old and I'm trying my best to save some cash to buy a new GPU. Buying games would be a total waste for me.
>>
>>378659578
i would buy titanfall 2 if it was on steam and not origin

>pic related
was the first DOOM game I didn't finish and aborted mid-campaign.
I finished all other DOOM games multiple times on all difficulty levels, including the master piece Doom3 (with DLC).

Pirate a GPU. Oh wait, this you won't do, you niggerfaggot. kys asap

>>378663578
Doom3 is better than Half-Life 2.

>>378662165

I bet $100,000 you didn't finish Nightmare on any of them with the exception of Doom 3.
>>
>>378664181
That's not saying much.
>>
>>378657689
Just play DOOM. There's thousands of mods and a still highly active modding community.
>>
>>378664536
I mean the original of course, not 2016.
>>
>>378664191
That would be me.

Why oh why did I do something like that, what was in my mind?

When DOOM came out, it didn't offer the Nightmare difficulty level. That was patched in later.

t. DOOM player in 1993

"Why won't devs make good single player shooter campaigns any more?"
>pirates one of the only recent games with a good fps campaign

Hmm, I wonder why publishers are forcing multiplayer and dlc into every game.
>>
>>378664691
PC is a multiplayer-only platform.
>>
>>378664181
objectively wrong
>>
>>378659289
arcade mode doesn't
