which (fps) games where the pistols aren't suck/forgettable?

[sleeps]

idk why devs give the player the pistol only for it to be forgettable once you got a rifle/shotgun. the only fps games that didn't do that is ultrakill. but i didn't really count revolver because i refer to normal pistol. pre re7 is not an fps but the pistol is my favorite arsenal in that game. i only played re2 and re4 and both are my favorite. and mgs3 has mk22 and m1911 and both are my favorite weapon in the game.

Why use a handgun when you can use rifles and shotguns?

Mobility, dual wielding, faster to reload.

Dual wielding is dumb with guns and no you don't reload them any faster either. Mobility isn't worth worse firepower, accuracy and effective range as well as usually a sub par rate of fire.

because pistol can be useful for certain situation. and it's not underpowered in real life

I can see that I a game where you are a stealth assasin or something, but in a game where rifles and shotguns are needed I don't see it....though I did use a handgun a lot in the 1st Metro game, but it was modified

In Metro you are kinda forced to use weapons and ammo you have at your disposal so it's normal in this context.

i'd like it that in certain tactical based shooter where you can't carry ammo more than a mag or two, pistol can be useful imo. i'm not sure if there are any game that did that

Some pistols with certain ammo where very effective with VATS and regained action points.

i gave up on System Shock because of the ♥♥♥♥ gun mechanics.
seriously, that far into the future and they can't design a gun that can fire more that five shots without breaking!?

wrench master race. and then in bioshock the case is different. the wrench is pretty much useless

[sleeps]

i feel like prey has balance the wrench for not too good and not bad either personally. your ammo is scarce so using wrench to kill those black headcrab is a viable option. deplete those ammo on those scary giant idk the name. and maybe those stupid electric zombie

I mean anything is good with Vats if you make your Fallout Build right.

System shock doesn't have weapon durability?

idk what vats means. although if i want to make a game, i want a five seven to be the best weapon. because the design is unique imo

Fallout Mechanic where you use weapons automatically with your AP bar, it was implemented to give that RPG turn by turn aspects to modern fallout games. You can target any ennemy body part with it too which you should anyways almost always aim the head in 90% of the time regardless.
