What game has the best 3rd person armed combat
-
my cousins chris and donnie told me that the new god of war has the best combat system ever. i said no way
i hold that ocarina of time z-targeting iron knuckle style combat is the best i remember playing
-
For a slower more methodical style I'd say Bloodbourne or Dark Souls 3 are my favourite. For a faster style Bayonetta 1 on one of the harder difficulties is hard to beat.
-
I'd go as far to say that God of War 2018 isn't the best in the series and the combat only gets good once you are close to being entirely upgraded - THEN it becomes something very high quality.
Shooters:
- SOCOM II
- The Last of Us
- Max Payne 1-3
- Resident Evil 4, 5
Action:
- Bloodborne
- Dark Souls III
- God of War III
- Vanquish
- Okami
- Nier Automata (yeah yeah but I loved the combat)
-
I'd personally give it to Devil May Cry 4. The depth and speed of combat are things I have not experienced before or since. Well maybe Metal Gear Rising gives it a run for it's money. I love that parry system.
-
I would put God of War (2018) and Bloodborne up there, both are pretty reliant on their respective weapons (especially God of War) and the weapons are certainly very well done in both games. Bloodborne is more methodical and a bit slower, but the feeling of every impact and kills is way better in God of War for me.
-
Vanquish
-
Lord of the Rings: Return of the King
I will never stop pushing for this game.
-
I will say that the parry system works well but the infinite blocking kinda keeps it away from the absolute top tier but I think its one of the best brawler games I've ever played.
-
@dipset I just want people to love it like I do haha. It's an irrational love, but one that has lasted for 15 years now.
-
Max Payne easily.
-
Bloodborne, Vanquish, and DmC Devil May Cry are some of my faves.
-
Loved the Batman Arkham games don't @ me.
-
Bayonetta and Wonderful 101
Shooter wise. Gears of war 3
-
Condemned: Criminal Origins. Not necessarily in the combat itself, but how the enemies react to it. Not to mention the AI will sometimes hide from you, which I guess could technically be considered a combat mechanic.
-
@capnbobamous condemned a 3rd person game huh
-
No one's said Ninja Gaiden Black yet, so I'll say Ninja Gaiden Black.
-
Hack n Slash:
Devil May Cry 3
Bayonetta 1 & 2
Metal Gear Rising
God HandTPS:
Vanqiush
Gungrave
Stranglehold
Max Payne
-
@david-berishaj Oh hahahah. I guess I totally forgot about the criteria when i wrote that. My bad.
-
Katamari Damacy: it's technically combat, since you're killing everyone you roll up when you shoot them into space to "become stars"
Look at that maniacal psychopath and his murderball of living (for the moment) victims!

@tokyoslim let's be reasonable here
