≠ Stands apart with third-person shooting, sandbox freedom and strong narrative focus, while skipping setting scifi

The shootdodge finally has weight behind it: bullets tear through cover, animations blend into terrain, and the last-stand mechanic keeps firefights tense. Some of the best gunfeel of its generation. It is also the most controlling — long unskippable cutscenes stitch between fights, and the linear corridors leave little room to approach an encounter your own way.
