I really want to play a game where I can just listen to loud music and swing cool weapons around. I’ve never played a rhythm combat game but Metal Hellsinger looks fun but not sure it’s exactly my vibe, halp

Okay how did you get this pick of me 20 years ago?
Ultrakill. lol it’s insane
Doom eternal. It even comes with decent music you can listen too while killing hordes of demons
Overwatch 2 😖
Rimworld.
The perfect definition of chaos and “everything hates you”.
Elden Ring
And if I’m craving something even more chaotic, I play the Sims
Saints Row: The Third. Nothing like beating up cops with a huge dildo while running around in the most ridiculous outfit imaginable.
It’s been mentioned here already but OP you’re really looking for Doom Eternal. Big weapons, gory melee kills, amazing soundtrack, plus there’s a really surprising breadth of different outfits and a decent camera mode lol
Great game 10/10
You described devil may cry (favourite: devil may cry 5) and yakuza(favourites: infinite wealth and lost judgment) they’re comfort franchises and chaos too
warframe on endless missions ^^’
Cyberpunk 2077 (one you get past act 1)
Farcry 6
Gta online
Just Cause 2 or 3, or Call of Duty zombies usually.
Doom, it’s so fast paced, there no time to think !
Goat Simulator 3
Edit: I’m sorry, I didn’t read the post before commenting. I thought you were asking for games with nonsensical goofiness and a very “Watch the world burn under the heft of my hoof” vibe. I stand by what I said here in that context!
Broforce. All action movies known to humanity taken into one chaotic pixel-art shoot ’em all game. Not sure about the music though, I haven’t played it with sound. But it has the chaos part, everything constantly explodes, blood everywhere… It’s basically any Rambo movie (except the first one) as a videogame. And also for a game similar to Hellsinger, Brütal Legend, it’s a game where the main character, Eddie gets into a metal world after something from a stage fell on him (so, it’s basically an isekai, lol) and has to save the metal world from some bad guys that want to destroy metal. It has cool music, lots of famous bands and Jack Black voices Eddie and Ozzy Osborne voices Guardian Of Metal (he doesn’t have a big role in the game, but still, he’s there).
Devil May Cry (DMC [controversial opinion I know], Devil May Cry 5), Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, DOOM Eternal, Borderlands series, Bayonetta. Less horde combat, more platforming, but still fun flow and cool weapons – Alice: Madness Returns.
I started another playthrough of Dishonored this week. Forgot how nuts you can make it, and how much I love it haha.
Any ARPG where you mow down crowds of mobs with OP spells, e.g. Diablo III, Grim Dawn, 40K Inquisitor, etc. That said I don’t swing cool weapons around, I gravitate towards flashy spells — Meteor, Albrecht’s Aether Ray, Hand Flamer, etc.
Rhythm combat? Hi-Fi Rush, hands down! It’s so much fun, the music is great as well.
Most of my chaos games are really not combat based, though. I quite enjoy “Donut County”, where you gradually destroy a city through directing a little hole in the ground that gets larger the more you swallow, or “Say NO! More” that’s a very silly game about using NO in a very destructive manner!
Any of the Borderlands games. Pure chaos.
League of Legends.
Chaos on my teammates, my enemies and my friends’ mental stability. One of the reasons why I don’t play League with my friends, I feel so sorry for them HAHAHHAH.
Paint the Town Red
Helldivers 2
Ooh you might like Bullets Per Minute! I haven’t played it myself, but watching my spouse play, it sounds exactly what you’re looking for. Guns, cool music that matches your shooting, and it’s stupid fun.
Goat simulator. Octodad. Super hot. Helldiver’s 2. The sims 2. Rogue legacy. There’s more but in drawing a blank currently.
A Saint’s Row game
Vampire Survivors. Just pop in and create pixel-hell.
The Katamari games, especially the later levels. Happy, brightly coloured apocalypse with a jazzy soundtrack!
Unreal Tournament (1999). Later games never really captured the same sense of chaos and derangement of the original, especially with mods.
EDF! They’re so much fun and the perfect game to just zone out and shoot stuff.
Lately I have been enjoying OTXO for this, it’s a great successor to Hotline Miami with a kickass soundtrack. I also really like DOOM 2016 for its purely aggressive game flow.
Warframe. Higher end content is absolute insanity with explosions, particle effects, and wall-running-backflips at about a million miles an hour. Absolutely soothes my inner gremlin.
Warframe, you’ve got hundreds of different weapons and over 50 characters with different powers to choose from, with tons of different enemies and locations.
If you wanna kill stuff, that’s the game to do it
Chivalry 2 or any Battlefield
everything i play i turn into chaos 😭
Synthetik. It’s a roguelike tactical shooter and insanely fun once you get somewhat competent at the game. It takes some time to get into, but you can completely modify the difficulty depending on your preferences as well. The soundtrack is great, and the gunplay is amazing. Synthetik 2 is also great, but even more punishing than the first game.
Oh, and considering it’s a roguelike (that you can also play in co-op, but it might end your friendship with friendly fire) you don’t have to commit a lot of time to the game. Just play a round and be over it, or stay on that grind until you’ve beaten the final boss.
Stick Fight: The Game
How has no one mentioned Vampire Survivors?
Teardown! Just Cause 2! Red Faction: Guerrilla! I call them “fucking around” games lol.
Doom (2016) the music is *AMAZING!!!* and don’t even get me started on the demon killing
unironically fortnite even if i don’t like battle royales much bc it has a lot of silly stuff you can pull off: riding a rocket shot by your friend, running people over with cars, throwing people around, some probably wacky weapon or vehicle they add
Earth Defense Force
Saints row 3 and 4 are so delightfully over the top comedic chaos it’s very cathartic.
Noita. Nuff said! 😤
DOOM! So many mods out there for the classic games (and newer ones). Right now I love Doom Infinite; a mod that gives Doom 2 rouge-like elements like weaons with random quirks, power ups and abilities in levels, and one life per run!
