>Muzzle flash is a shitty meme
FEAR’s shotgun says hello, that thing that often gets praise while having zero muzzle flash so you’re more “right” and onto something than the person you’re talking to. Have another dumb webm.

>and the enemies outside of the standard zombies don't even flinch when shot. When you shoot a Z-Sec guy with a shotgun almost point blank and he does not even flinch, that is just.. Bad.
It's a matter of perspective. Strogg on Hard+ only show different pain textures, but them not getting staggered makes you realize how they're more in your face and thus more of a threat. Doom 3 enemies aren't as passive, though. They'll often react to big hits and have a "cooldown" mirroring Quake 1' somewhat.
For FEAR there's just tons of great feedback from the enemies and how they respond to the environment, like blasting a guy and having his blood fly on the ceiling after another ends up in a bloody broken window. It's so satisfying that you don't even notice the lame weapon textures and lack of shotgun muzzleflash.
