I'd love to see a good triple-A game set during the Napoleonic Wars, perhaps with the War of 1812 included in maps and a separate campaign.

(action-[?])RPG where you start at max level and lose levels over the game, as you get more bloodied an bruised across the story. And obviusly story is paced such way that there’s no reasonable time for recovery that equates to return to max levels.

War of 1812 would be cool.

Crusades could also be cool.

If we go too far in this direction we'll end up with Far Cry Primal though.

Ass Creed 1 is probably the closest we're going to get. FPSs don't really work when you can't shoot anything because guns haven't been invented yet.

Chivalry does not count as "good."

Honestly though I was mostly just making a joke about the paradox of a "First Person Shooter" that doesn't involve any shooting.

There could be a game set during the korean war for a fun change in an FPS setting.

That way you get some WW2 with some changes.

Or just another Weird World War, like Wolfenstein. There is a funky setting called Konflikt 47 that would be good for that.

There are projectile weapons other than guns that have been used in warfare throughout history, y'know. ;) An archery-heavy FPS could be an interesting concept!

Yes, fun. He can stand away from all the action and shoot arrows instead of actually providing a decent fight scene.
