Can you give auggeations to try for preferably indie single player campaign FPS that does not have creatures or aliens, or takes place in space?

I'm not into the Doom games because of the martian creatures, or Halo games due to seeimnfly a space theme. I tried Half Life 2 since people demand a Half Life 3, and after 45 minutes I lost all interest in Half Life. Is there an indie version of Medal Of Honor?

I do not play online multiplayer at all, and no third person games of any kind.

Full scale warfare games is what I am best at playing. That's why I never ever logon to online multiplayer, because the bulk of people have no understanding of strategic positioning and outline plays of who does what in a specific situation.

Essentially, it seems online players don't understand losing a battle to win the war. For example, if an enemy is in your sights, check if it's better to let them pass unharmed so your position is not compromised by a third person seeing where that shot came from if not fully covered.

If that's the kind of game you like, then I feel like online is the only kind that does it justice. Games like "Squad" or "Arma" try for that level of strategy and realism.

For online, no, I don't find people as a collective whole are well versed enough in miltary strategies ti fully utilize online gameplay for what it could be. I don't play games so I can win and beat everybody, I play games for entertainment to enjoy some relaxation time.

I get the impression that there ar people online who truly believe that if they win in something like deathmatch that they are better person then everybody else. That strikes me as a hollow empty existance to any sense of validity from playing video games. I do know that 100% of game cbeaters and hackers are miserable losers who have nothing going for them outside in the real world so that cheat at video games on the internet to win to try to feel like they're not a total waste of empty space.

I tried Arma 3 compaign, the graphics wrecked for me and the horrible attempt at voice acting.
