I doubt it, but we'll see.

People are into stories now, some FPS games have good stories, but not all. It's mostly RPG nowadays that takes a huge slice of the cake. Plus a lot of play on their phones, and you can't really play FPS games on a phone, a mouse and a keyboard is absolutely necessary for that.

yeaaah fps games on mobile feels.. sucky, playing such a genre with a touch screen feels wrong in many ways. a mouse and keyboard just feels like the right way to play an fps game

IDK where things stand regarding VR and FPS games... maybe it'll gap the bridge, make them popular again.
