I'm gonna be honest, this is the first time in my entire life that I've ever seen the term "extraction shooter" and I don't even really know what it means let alone why it would be a bad thing
it's probably not The Worst Option For Me Personally (that would be an mmo or something like that, that i have zero to negative interest in) but a good example of an extraction shooter would be Escape From Tarkov.
Players drop into a shared space, obtain loot, and try to get out without dying/losing that loot. If you die on a run, you lose everything. If you make it out ("extract"), you keep everything, and that's held persistently. You could think about it sort of like "what if L4D was competitive".
It's a novel idea, I don't even hate it as a genre, but it feels so bland and blatantly Service Game-y that it feels gross for Marathon. Not thrilled!
It successfully extracted my fleeting enthusiasm for a new Marathon game and made me say "shoot".
we are seeing levels of over that were thought impossible even ten years ago
