How come no one plays innocent, light hearted games anymore? :x

The first game I got was Goldeneye on the N64. :P I've pretty much always played shooters.No wonder. Then we shall never be on the same gaming page and that makes me sad. :( Are there any games you know of that would be shooter-lite, like not so bad for a chicken like me?
I really enjoyed Mirrors Edge, and games like Oblivion or Freelancer (from 2003 :P) I used to have the most fun just wandering around exploring things (even though there was combat). TF2 (Team Fortress 2) is a shooter, but it's a casual shooter with a lot of light hearted humour thrown in. The Portal games are great also. the main reason I don't play those casual "innocent" games is because they usually require thinking or something like that and I just want to jump into a game and kill stuff. :P Most of my games are shooters though.I'm sure I HAVE played some innocent games, they are just not coming to mind. The only one I can think of is Poker Night at the Inventory.
If you know any games that I can get on Steam, let me know and i'll check them out. :)
So to recap: Mirrors Edge and Portal are first person, but light on combat. TF2 has cartoon-gore and is light hearted (but still violent I guess). Oblivion you can just wander around towns and cities and the countryside and not actually fight anything, but there's not much else to do outside of combat.
