Thoughts on Finishing Moves?

I don't get it. How does being killed by a finisher feel different from just being shot? I really don't get why it could be "infuriating". Does it remind you that you were caught so alone that the opponent has time to flex some muscles and still live to tell the tale? XD

It's a funny addition to the game, not very useful, just some flair, like sprays or emotes in other games. On the hand, sometimes finisher is still practically useful - while it takes more time, it locks the victim in place (so > punching), it's much more quiet than shooting (so maybe less info given to 3rd party) and it saves bullets, if that's a problem. Rare situations, but small things like that make the game feel just a little bit more varied.
