FPS––“first person shooter”––games like the wildly popular Battlefield series, first launched in 2002 and comprise nearly 21% of all video game sales, the largest of any genre in an industry, generating more than $180 billion in revenue annually.
You’ve played one before. But have you ever tried to desert, abandon the fight mid battle? Well in Battlefield at least, desertion is not an option and the software upholds the rules without rest. In the perpetual Battlefield war, there is no place for peace, but there is fun. In How to Disappear, Total Refusal looks at the history of desertion from within a game where it is not an option.
