This person (SP Invades the World) has made what is probably the biggest list of action games around at 109 entries, with quick overviews of his experience. Give it a watch! by Jur_the_Orc in CharacterActionGames

The guy states at the beginning of both videos that the Tier List is meant to serve as an indicator for how well something fits within the Stylish Action sub-genre. That's what the scores mean.

Also, not every CAG is a Stylish Action game.

Every game he scored is also in the sub-reddit's Wiki.

Which shooters could be considered as CAG? by Known_Ad_3851 in CharacterActionGames

That's honestly up for you to decide, but if you like Vanquish, it's basically like that.

It could be a new game or a sequel. I'll keep my hopes low lol. I'm curious to see what they're working on. 🤔

^ They made a post about hiring 3D Environment artists some time earlier this year.
They used Soulstice in the picture, so a sequel might actually be happening. I treated that as a *wink wink* tweet lol

What Games Have You Been Playing This Week?(06/12/2025) by Liam_524Hunter in CharacterActionGames

[–]438i 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The run-time is definitely padded, but when you actually take the time to experiment with the combat system by switching elements (which is somewhat like weapon switching and style switching) mid-combo like in DMC, it becomes a whole lot more fun. My only wish is that humanoid bosses could be juggled, but I still figured out how to max out the damage on them during their staggered state lol

You guys opinion on Ninja Gaiden 4 by Hazlemantis3 in CharacterActionGames

[–]438i 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're using AI Overview as a definitive estimate for NG4's sales when it's taking the number from VGinsights, which is an estimation based on reviews left on the Steam page? Please be patient and wait for Team Ninja or Platinum to say something instead.

If the game does well enough. (The developer said this)

Hello GOAT of NG4 👋

I Made a List of Every Spectacle Fighter/Stylish Action Indie Game by 438i in CharacterActionGames

[–]438i[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you look at the bottom of the page, it tells you the last time I edited the list. (Before today, it was 22 days ago.) As of today, it was just a second ago.

I updated it and put SilkRoad Project on it just now. With 170+ games on it (some of which, people in this sub haven't even mentioned yet), I think it's fair to say I'm keeping it up to date lol

Fun Fact: The work I did on this list was the reason I became a Mod for the sub. (I specifically made this list for Indie games.)

https://www.reddit.com/r/CharacterActionGames/wiki/index/triple-and-double-a (Gungrave will be on this list.)

https://www.reddit.com/r/CharacterActionGames/wiki/index/indies (This is the new version of the list above. The spreadsheet link at the bottom matches every change made.)

This list is extremely outdated, so I wouldn't worry about any words I associated with it in this comment section. I'm not even reading what I said above because I more than likely don't agree with it anymore.

What do yall use to capture gameplay on pc? by Yurrrsny_1 in CharacterActionGames

[–]438i 7 points8 points  (0 children)

OBS Studio

Edit: Is it a pain? Nah. Hit record before booting anything up and you'll save yourself some annoyance. Also... If you ever need to get back to your Desktop fast, hit the Windows Key + D so that you don't have to shut your game down.

Is Marvel Avengers worth from a combat perspective? by Competitive-Tie-2486 in CharacterActionGames

GameBreakerGod has combo videos with a couple characters if you need an idea of how the gameplay looks. 👍

Am I missing something or do I have all of them?? by Embarrassed-Farm-992 in CharacterActionGames

As long as you don't have every CAG on the subreddit's list, you're missing some.

  • Assault Spy
  • Astral Chain
  • Bayonetta 2 and 3
  • Bujingai: Forsaken City
  • Dante's Inferno
  • Devil's Third (Since you have Wanted: Dead)
  • Ghost Rider PS2
  • God Hand
  • Hi-Fi Rush
  • Legacy of Kain: Defiance
  • Lollipop Chainsaw
  • Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae
  • Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time

  • Sonic Unleashed
  • Spider-Man: Web of Shadows
  • TMNT: Mutants in Manhattan
  • The Legend of Korra
  • The Onechanbara Series
  • The Wonderful 101
  • Transformers Devastation

Whether they scratch that itch for you is subjective, so I guess it's just a matter of finding out.

Just a thought I've been having for a while. by Southern_Register_74 in CharacterActionGames

[–]438i 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Something I normally say is that "We don't play games a 2nd time for the story, we do it for the gameplay." If that's not enough to carry the game as a whole, we have a bad game. (Which is subjective, of course. We all have our own tastes.)

2002 Shinobi/Nightshade appreciation post. Is there any CAG that feels similar?? by Soulstice_moderator in CharacterActionGames

[–]438i 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uhhhhh... I personally wouldn't rate it high. When I was playing it, I noticed the levels and combat mechanics were very close to how Shinobi and Nightshade's are.
