Linear, action hidden gems like The Red Star?

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I am playing Lords of the Fallen right now. It attracted me by being a soulslike, but I am finding it to be much more linear than most which, while disappointing for me, might make it something worth your time. It's way easier than other souls likes, and has a kind of "comic book death metal" feel to its aesthetic and story (reminds me of Darksider but less exaggeration) and makes you feel powerful rather than weak.
I'm familiar with Lords of the Fallen, but I don't enjoy souls-like combat. I'm a big fan of old school death metal though (Autopsy, Brutality, Immolation… etc.) so I'll check it out to see what that is about. Thanks!
