That's because you suck ass at games. I find Counterstrike appealing for the same exact reason I find fighting games appealing, its even designed similarly right down to the short rounds, and the emphasis on labbing and study, the primary difference being the presence of tactical cooperation. If you don't like a "sub-genre" then its simply because either
1) Something is wrong on your end (likely)
or
2) There is simply no game in that genre that has action gameplay as satisfying as other genres
Action games all have similar appeal. Calling DMC a "character action game" is wrong because every other game cloned from it is complete ass and it would be more productive to compare those games to action games as a whole rather than squabbling in a tiny echo chamber.
Like look at that patriciantv guy that does 10 hour long videos on elder scrolls games. He doesn't know they're all shit because he only compared them to other elder scrolls games, but has made a career out of spreading ignorance.
