I’m looking for action hidden gems, preferably scripted and linear—no open world or procuderal generation (roguelike, roguelike-like, or roguelite)
Some of my “usual suspects” favorites are Bayonetta, The Wonderful 101, Viewtiful Joe, God Hand, and Ninja Gaiden II. On the shmup/twin-stick shooter side: Crimzon Clover, Ketsui, and Assault Android Cactus+.
I also love Catherine, so I wouldn’t mind some puzzle thrown in there.
As nonlinear as I can go: The Deadly Tower of Monsters.
Maybe Sifu? It’s a first person martial arts game. I haven’t played much but it seems tight. In the beginning you can do the hallway scene from old boy which is always fun.
I for some reason just remembered about Shadow Complex . It’s a side scroller metroidvania. From the 360 era it was fun. More stealth than action. I’m not into metroidvanias but I enjoyed it because it wasn’t overwhelming.
