What happened to good destruction-physics focused games?
Maybe too old of a game, you'd have to run it on an emulator, but anyone remember Treadmarks, the tank racing/killing game? That was lots of destruction physics.

if you're only getting it on console, check the mod packs out sometime! they're free DLC so console players can enjoy the modding scene from Steam

Besiege is great. Its fun and really accessable even on potato hardware. Its also nice because they are small bite style levels. You can really easily pop in and out.

VOID/Breaker has good destruction physics! It's an integral part of the combat.

Great call, I'm already a huge 7DTD fan though I'm disappointed in the direction that the devs seem to be taking the game (more linear progression, less open world survival)

Another good one is Instruments of Destruction. The dev was lead tech designer on Redfaction: Guerilla. It takes a similar approach to making structures have satisfying interior detail.

How about Teardown? It got voxel physics where you can break anything in the game

Please post your source. After them killing Deus Ex 3 I have no reason to think they are seriously about anything

Noita is part pixel physics part programming simulator. The tutorial involves fighting your way downwards to the final boss, while the rest of the game involves destroying the environment in every other direction until you're stronger than the sun.

I think it's because modern games have high quality assets that would be harder to explode and interact with the rest of the world. Also maybe it doesn't fit in the world, something like battlefield 6 works cause it's a new map every time but it doesn't seem to fit in an RPG

Guerilla wasn't even half as good as the first one destruction wise (as in: almost everything).
But yeah I agree. It would be so awesome to include this more again. Yes, there are games several games mentioned but it's not really the same. Too bad.
Same for voxel games BTW.
