I've always sucked at FPSs and this holds true to today. Well, okay, I was decent at Perfect Dark if I recall, but mostly I'm abysmal. Doom was no exception. With games like that and Duke Nukem, I pretty much always just put on cheat codes and tore my way through aliens. I watch in awe of people who do speedruns of Quake and the like. How do they do that?? My ex got me Wolfenstein New Order a couple Christmases ago, but it's predictably collecting dust. You're not gonna draw me in! I'll quit while I'm behind, specifically at the starting line, too shy to even put a toe ahead.
I know I mentioned Alien: Isolation in another post. That's an exception to the rule. I managed to stumble my way through that game, but it wasn't easy. Most of the gameplay is solving puzzles and being stealthy, so that helped. I didn't have to humiliate myself by screaming and firing a spray of bullets on three different walls without once hitting an enemy. At least, not every 10 seconds, like in a normal shooter.
