I move through fairly linear levels while using melee attacks and explosive abilities to deal with groups of enemies. The fighting is fast and aggressive, so I am usually more interested in keeping the attack going than carefully planning every move. I liked the feeling of charging into a group and cutting through enemies, especially when I can combine my normal attacks with abilities to clear out a difficult section.
