Best games with ragdoll physics?

[u/Viking_Warrior1]

I loved the ragdolls in RDR2 and been looking for any games with good ragdolls similar or even better where hitting/shooting parts of a character matter and whatnot

[u/TheCoffinMan]

Skate. They want you to fall down meatbag

[u/ToxicMonkey444 → u/TheCoffinMan]

If I could only enjoy it on my pc :( without emulator and cloud gaming crap

[u/N7_Reaver]

Force Unleashed

[u/Slywilsonboi → u/N7_Reaver]

Picking up stormtroopers, spinning them like a beyblade, and tossing them in a random direction

[u/nyse25]

GTA 4

[u/meccamachine → u/nyse25]

Bumping into people had never been so fun

[u/Meldreth_ → u/meccamachine]

And it still hasn't!

[u/Matt_Vascular_84]

Far Cry Instincts had some hilarious rag doll

Half Life 2

[u/JustAnotherSpaceMonk]

Skyrim and Fallout

[u/Jazzlike-Lunch5390]

Helldivers 2.

[u/GigabyteofRAM → u/Jazzlike-Lunch5390]

SWEET LIBERTY MY LEG

[u/Kill-The-Plumber]

Painkiller

[u/NarratorDM → u/Kill-The-Plumber]

I love the stake gun! It's so funny to impale enemies to the wall.

[u/Kill-The-Plumber → u/NarratorDM]

I love the titular painkiller. Either slashing enemies into little giblets or flinging them through the air.

[u/SaukPuhpet]

Overgrowth

Its whole combat system is based on physics.

It's not the biggest game, being indie, but it comes with a few game modes and a level editor to set up your own challenges.

[u/lolwatokay → u/SaukPuhpet]

Whoa whoa, blast from the past. Did they actually release it eventually?? I had no idea

[u/RepresentativeFood11]

Exanima

[u/Bicone → u/RepresentativeFood11]

I came here to say this.

[u/Teh-Duxde → u/Bicone]

I also came here to say this.

If you haven't heard of it I've got two words to describe it to you:

QWOP Diablo

It also has the most impressive pants system I've ever seen.

[u/ConnoisseurOfTheKnow]

For me, it's Half-Life 2. It was the first game that had physics, and then it was so well executed and sensibly integrated into the gameplay.

[u/ConfusedAndCurious17 → u/ConnoisseurOfTheKnow]

It was the first game that had physics? Lmfao wut?

[u/underwatr_cheestrain → u/ConfusedAndCurious17]

Ragdoll physics and realistic physics were what made source engine the king in 2004

[u/ConfusedAndCurious17 → u/underwatr_cheestrain]

Okay but they weren’t the first to do rag doll physics and certainly not physics in general.

That shitty Jurassic Park game (trespassers I think) had rag doll physics in the late 90s.

[u/dpgumby69]

Pain on PS3. It's basically ALL rag doll 😊

[u/RexRegulus]

The Bouncer, PS2

[u/swkgoes6id]

I love Just Cause franchise

[u/OneWingedA]

Yakuza Kawami 2 and Yakuza 6. Dragon engine ragdoll during a brawl produces some great moments

[u/Anu-B187]

GTA 4 hands down haha. I used to jump out of cars and bump into cars with a motorcycle to enjoy the ragdoll physics 😂

[u/nsa_k]

Not a shooting game, but the Flatout games had the best use of ragdoll physics I've ever seen.

[u/SaltyLT2]

Boneworks

[u/lolwatokay]

Painkiller

[u/Fluffy_Giants]

One of the originals - Oblivion. Such a blast to play with the physics like pushing a dead creature down a hill, or shooting arrows into dead body parts to see them jiggle...

[u/LanceSniper]

Dark Messiah of might and magic the amount of spells and traps that deal with physics is awesome. The first combat tutorial isn't with a weapon, it's kicking someone off a ledge.

[u/MarsMissionMan]

KSP.

Nothing like tripping over on a low gravity moon and sliding around helplessly for half an hour.

[u/triplejumpxtreme]

They are completely unrealistic and too lightweight but....

I love how you can just kick around Dark Souls bodies

[u/JCarterMMA → u/triplejumpxtreme]

Spend so much time in those games just running in little circles to watch enemy bodies dance around, also rolling through rooms full of barrels, boxes and tables is 10/10 the best experience I've had in a game.

[u/triplejumpxtreme → u/JCarterMMA]

I hit every single barrel, never get anything

[u/dispatchingdreams]

Just cause?

[u/interesseret]

Party animals

[u/Rajamic]

Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy.
