Some of the best FPS games are live service games but it's because they're great games at their core. Plenty of companies are focusing on making live service games instead of games so good that they become live services.

I loved the first Division game. It had a great community, great gunplay, and prior to the crafting nerf(s) a really good loot/crafting feedback loop. But it could have just as easily been made as a local co-op or self-hosted game. I have yet to encounter a game that can only exist as a live service game, unlike e.g. Eve Online which can only exist as an MMO.
