That's a dumb thing to say when if anything it's stories and context that does that, and not gameplay. (yeah I know you're very likely trolling) When I say context (not sure if that's the right term but whatever), what I mean is for example in Doom, you may feel like a badass because you're exterminating demons from hell by the hundreds. The gameplay is very satisfying, but I don't see how it would make you feel empowered. Similarly, in Wolfenstein you may feel like a badass because you're slaying Nazis, and at the end, you even kill Hitler. Not to forget that gameplay design defines what your character can do, not story (story justifies it or explains it, but does not dictate nor determine it).
