What is the problem with a first-person-shooter game if one has to shoot one's way past Nazis, terrorists, ISIS, or drug cartels? Part of what makes the game so challenging is that you do not want to kill innocent people. You want to shoot the bad guy, and not innocent people. So if it is a Mossad agent facing Nazis with hostages...

The FBI trains agents to shoot decisively but cautiously. Its course (as I saw in a video years ago) intersperses an armed robbers with innocent people. If you have any conscience at all you feel  very bad about shooting a bank teller instead of a bank robber.  It is real-time, and real in size. It is not a video game; it is a walking game.
