For me, the best combat is combat that gives a good weight to the weapons, and a strong variety. My favorites with these qualifiers are:
>Dark Souls
>Monster Hunter
>Bloodborne

Best sword fighting I ever played was in the first Gothic, but I haven't played Souls games so...
Best shooting definitely S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

Yes, unironically. I liked those melee/shooting mechanics the most.

Red orchestra 2 has one of the finest and most realistic shooting mechanics I've played so far, maybe arma 3 as well but I don't like that game

>>390078727
I don't know. I mean, objectively you're probably right but I just always felt stalker shooting better than other games. I don't even really understand what is wrong about it - to me it feels like what shooting in a game should be. I'm not /k/ and have never shot a gun so I might be wrong and this shit might as well be unrealistic as fuck, but I always thought stalker shooting just feels like real shooting
>>
>>390078292
>the first Gothic
That's a really fun game, but combat is definitely its weakest aspect, so your taste is certainly unorthodox.

As for me, it's Twilight Princess. The weight, speed and sheer diversity of tools and attacks you can use makes it a really fun game to dispatch enemies. It also highlights a big weakpoint in the game, which is that it's so piss easy that you'll never have to use anything beyond 1-2 different moves to kill pretty much everything the game has to offer, with the sole exception of the last few rooms of the Cave of Ordeals.

MGO2 is pretty high on the list for me.

Depends wholly on what "good combat" is to you. Variety of mechanics? Smoothness of animations? Allowance for many play styles? Technologically advanced AI? Good control schemes?

There are tons of factors that have an impact on how combat in a game feels. My vote right now goes to Nioh, but even that is only one style of combat. I could say Diablo 2 has good combat as well simply because it feels great to fight and kill things with your various builds. There's too many varieties to determine what is "best" desu

I can assure you it's nothing like real gun shooting. Guns have almost zero recoil and really weird accuracy, even if you low crouch they're way too un-accurate. That said, it's still a fun game

basically you need good integration with the whole gameplay systems, the enemy AI and variety, and most of all, give freedom of expression to the player but also good animations that convey the necessary weight of a weapon/action I am not even touching 2d games

I'm not going to try and make a claim about "best", but I feel like Nioh should be put forward as an honorable mention. Even if the enemy variety is pretty thin and the level design isn't as imaginitive as Souls/Bloodborne, the combat is still really fluid and offers pretty good depth and variety within the weapons it offers.

I really enjoy Skyrim's simple combat. I dunno, just feels way more immersive than MMORPG combat.

Not sure if EVE Online counts but I like combat there too.

Wait wait I actually take that back

I think Okami wins for most unique combat, and it's fast paced, awesome, and smooth as a loli's bum.

It also has the system rewarding no damage and high speed takedowns, magic system is amazing and seamless, music choreographs, counter system. Fucking god tier.

Nioh has much better combat than souls
>>
>>390088868
the number of moves is irrelevant
all you need is 1 light, 1 strong, 1 running and make them all chainable into each other

everything else is filler crap for illusion of "depth"
and bloodborne is a fine example of that

Fighting games.
For singleplayer games, then DMC easily--especially 3 and 4.
>>
>>390075030
Guilty Gear in general, especially Accent Core.
DMC4(3 with a mod)
I rather DaS over Bloodborne but the latter has better combat.
Quake.
Mount & Blade.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R
F.E.A.R

Off the top of my head.

Not really that floaty. Only seems so because of the player in the webm makes it look easy to stay in the air so long.
>>
games like for honor and chivalry aside

i would say oblivion. why? because it was the best combat system in an open world game. no finishing moves or spinning around like a spinning top.
>>
>>390091735
i like when hits matter
i take a hit, i get knocked out, have to find a window for heal or die
i land a hit, enemy does the same

not just mash mash mash, slice slice slice, something messy happens on the screen, my character does 28203690 attacks while im watching the boss healthbar slowly go down
>>
>>390075030
Guild wars 1. No contest.
>>
>>390091978
You have absolutely no idea how DMC4 works on harder difficulties.
They are bullet sponges and that's hardly mashing.

>>390091939
Oblivion's combat is ass.
>>
>ITT: boring opinions from guys who know jackshit about combat

bloodborne or dota2
>>
Super Mario 64 Online as long as you aren't some kind of FGC pleb
>>
>>390092094
i have to admit i never played dmc, but for the exact same reasoning

what i like: press a button - do 1 hit, with perceivable wind up and recovery animations, long enough for it to feel like a commitment. From various cuhrazee games' webms that i saw, it looks like the character does its own thing, it feels cheap and arcadey
>>
>>390092456
jesus christ dude, why the fuck are you trying to talk about something you obviously know nothing about.
>>
Nioh without a doubt.
>>
>>390092959
im just saying why i like what i like and why i don't like what i don't like

im not shitting on dmc by any means, it's probably a great game, considering how popular and successful it were
>>
>>390093096
but everything in that webm is 1 button = 1 attack, all with perceivable wind ups and recoveries. just because its a faster paced game doesnt make it any less true. also healing is heavily limited. more so than soulsbornes or MH, so every move is a commitment and just mashing will get you nowhere.
>>
>>390075030
Halo series is still pretty damn good with environment based gameplay.
wish more shooters had environmental gameplay.
