Gameplay
In Space Marine, the player engages enemies in both melee and at range from a third-person point of view. The player character, Demetrian Titus, has a regenerative force shield (i.e. the "Iron Halo") that can absorb initial damages but require certain cooldown before recovery. When his health) gets low, performing stun moves can allow Titus to trigger a quick time event known as "Execution" which results in an instant kill and regaining a portion of his health. Titus is accompanied by the characters Sidonus and Leandros for most of the game, though some missions are performed alone. The game features a "Fury" meter that, when filled up, grants rapid health regeneration and stronger melee attacks. This ability can later be upgraded with purity seals to improve its duration, the rate at which it recharges, and the effectiveness of ranged attacks (slow motion when zoomed, a faster fire rate and increased damage).
