What do you think younger gamers are missing about Wolfenstein?

preview

I've been replaying some of the newer Wolfenstein games and it's honestly made me wonder why the series doesn't seem to stick with younger gamers the way some other FPS franchises did like doom, Titanfall, etc have.

Maybe I'm wrong and I'm just in the wrong corners of the internet, but I rarely see people my age talking about Wolfenstein compared to Fallout, Doom, Halo, etc. For those of you who've been fans for a while, why do you think that is?

Is it the alternate history angle? The fact that it's single-player? The long gap between games? Youngblood? Something else?

I know battle-royale games and co-op/multiplayer games seem to be more top of mind for younger gamers but at the end of the day wolfenstein is still a shooter, and a pretty good one at that. They can't ONLY be playing Fortnite, right?

And what do you think Wolfenstein does better than people give it credit for, that the younger generation would like? For me it's the story, and how complex BJ is and even just a different view of the Nazi's but that's just me.

Genuinely curious because the more time I spend revisiting these games, the more surprised I am that they don't get talked about more!!!
