Stranglehold was good but had too many "kill X enemies to open a door" moments.

Fuck I hate how third person shooters have become today.
It's nothing but cover based

Can we just have a thread about third person shooters without cover mechanics?

Stranglehold had a cover mechanic but a pillar could only take like 3 bullets before disintegrating.

You fucking idiot, Stranglehold had a cover mechanic. There's nothing wrong with a cover mechanic as long as the combat isn't built around that. Since you couldn't even remember Stranglehold had one, we'll use that as an example of cover done right. It wasn't the focus of combat; combat was fast paced and almost arcadey, and cover was there if you needed it. Nine times out of ten I was running and gunning.

Binary Domain did cover right too by being another arcadey shooter with cover there when you need it. And you couldn't stay in cover for long because the AI was great.

Gears of War and ME2/3 are cover shooters done poorly. The game is built around chest high walls and the combat is tailored for cover.

BS. Gears is the goat cover shooter.

What's actually wrong with that? Don't just say "chest high walls", what's specifically wrong with that?
>>
>>275523585
It has multiplayer too. Too bad no one plays it anymore.

I fucking loved Stranglehold. I remember when the demo came out I replayed the first mission a couple times just to shoot while sliding on those food carts.
Granted, the novelty wears off later but it's a seriously underrated game. Not perfect by any means, but does not deserve being forgotten like it is.
