They seemed to describe something other than regular, even old FPSs. If anything, these are the last tags in tneir library.

Video games are a medium of artistic expression. My favorites have something insightful to say with their story, force you to reconsider basic mechanics in new ways, make me laugh, and have proper conclusions. I don’t want to be distracted with goals outside the canon of the world I’m trying to lose myself in.

That's why I went about old RPGs.

I don't feel their message is well-coordinated. My first thought was that they played Elisium and Baldurs Gate 3, and then wrote that they want more games like that.
