What open-world games on Steam have satisfying movement, like Arkham Knight or Spider-Man? (lemmy.world)

I want to grapple, glide, wall run, etc around a big open world. What are some games you think are fun for that?

I picked up Sunset Overdrive on a sale, and the rail grinding is fine I guess, but it's just not clicking with me.

Oh yeah, I remember seeing that one, but I never got around to trying it. Sort of a grimdark/knockoff Venom version of Infamous, yeah?

I believe it has a direct lineage from a game based on The Hulk called Ultimate Destruction, and you can feel that. You're super jumping, gliding, and sort of like Venom, consuming people to pose as them. There are missions with a stealth element, but other times you're throwing tanks at helicopters. Holding the run button will have you effortlessly doing cartwheels off the tops of cars and wall running straight up skyscrapers.

Oh damn, it's descended from Hulk UD? I loved that game, definitely one that was on my mind for this type of game. I'll certainly be checking this one out then.
