This is great because running away and shooting from afar is very much the lower-skill pathway. Wanted: Dead has much more of a focus on melee than ranged combat.įirearms in Wanted: Dead is very much a secondary option, as with the game’s challenge, you’ll have to learn to fight all these enemies close-up. If you try to rely on firearms to kill enemies in Wanted: Dead, you will be punished. In the second half, with how the levels were designed, there was little reason to break out a melee weapon.

In Devil’s Third, you could rely on firearms for pretty much the whole game. The major improvement here is the heightened focus and importance of melee combat. The hybrid slasher/shooter gameplay is very much an expansion and revision of what was seen in Devil’s Third. The story and characters have a very small amount of meat to them, but in a title like this, the gameplay is where the actual course meal’s at. Most of her screen time is in the unlockable cooking video segments, which came out before the game did. Stefanie Joosten, who was Quiet in Metal Gear Solid V, plays the Gunsmith, and she’s fun but doesn’t get much to do.

The most entertaining of the side characters is the angry police captain whose straight out of an 80s action B-movie. The entire unit of characters isn’t all that memorable and deep.
