well gameplay wise, scripted scene is a how they wanted it and forces us to follow but the continuation of the storyline is kinda ok for me.its just another brainless shooter game, not the best but at least its cheap
This is the best example of what shooter has become.
If you gonna divide everything down to its more fundamental features, then, its gonna be more confusing. Spec Ops The Line is also similar to most MMS with its ultra scripted gameplay but the game plays in 3rd person, so what does that mean then? So, its no longer a shooter?
Saints Row 4 still predominantly a shooter, because you still shoot people most of the time. Or abduct them. Or make them dance. Or inflate them. Or buttsecks them.
Spec Ops the line is a very linear 3rd person cover shooter.
Though I think he meant that SR4 primarily isn't fixed into just shooting things, as you can melee and drive all kind of vehicles and do other things possible rather than just pointing and shooting.
A shooter is a game where you can't do anything else but shoot. The primary objective of the game is to shoot thru the game.
