Darksiders 3 ... 3 Years Later

- Hey guys! I know its been a while, but there have been no new releases that have sparked my interest. So I decided to go back and play one of my favourite series; Darksiders 1 and 2. Which then led to me wanting to play number 3, which I hadn't played until recently. These are my thoughts on the game! I would love to hear what you think about it!
If you could leave a like and subscribe it would be very much appreciated! Also all criticism and feedback is welcome! So don't be shy to comment. Will also happily debate with you guys over aspects of the game and options people have about certain elements of the game.
As it stands I cant promise another game videos will be out soon. Because at the end of the day I play a lot of games and only some end up being reviewed.
I recently finished Darksiders 3 and enjoyed the entry despite its drastic design direction unlike its predecessors. It also helps that I'm also into the metroidvania and souls-like games, and despite the lack of zelda-like puzzles I come to love from the series, DS3 is still worth playing in my opinion. Would be neat to see DS4 utilizing a combination of the positives from the first 3 mainline titles to make something great.
Yeh well it uses metroidvania and souls elements and makes it a somewhat easier game to approach.100% agree, if they make 4 a mix of all the titles, I'm sure it would sell well.
I kinda like it's direction, although it took me halfway through the game and one replay to grow on me, because basically each game had a unique style. Zelda and God of War, Prince of Persia and now Dark Souls. if Darksiders 4 becomes like Bayonetta, I'm asking this franchise in marriage!
And hey, the DLC void area was definitive proof the creators LISTENED to the fans, because they kept the games identity while rescuing the previous's with heavy puzzle dungeon crawling and bosses that require some extra braincells to figure out.
I always imagine what Darksiders 3 would have been like if it was open world like DS2, and with the same combat. That would have been such a badass sequel.
I think the Franchise would still be around today tbh. Darksiders 2 was probably one of the best 3rd person action adventure rpg games ever made.
War and Death are on such a pinnacle for Me that I was confused after reading the reviews for Darksiders 3. But your review of this game has cleared My mind. I came across your review because I wanted to buy the Blades and Whip edition for this game as it has the Warmastered and Deathinitive Edition of the previous games. Thank you for the detailed review.
I'm glad my review was useful! Hopefully you love the games as much as I do!
I honestly think Darksiders 2 was the best of the installments... I didn't mind the open world, the loot, or any of that. It was just... enjoyable, Im not articulate enough to explain way, I just liked it best.
That's fair enough. I think it had everything the first game had and more! It was an extremely solid title 😁
One reason
You play as death
Amazing video, I am one of those who has played the Darksiders games several times, in my opinion this is an incredible video game, it tries to be different from its predecessors considering that it has a new protagonist and it had been 6 years since the launch of Darksiders II, this The game was made with a much lower budget than the previous ones, therefore I knew that perhaps the technical quality was going to be lower. Lastly, I am very grateful for this game because I really didn't think there was another Darksiders going and I still remember when I saw the trailer for Fury on IGN, I almost started to cry so I was going to play it and enjoy it even if it had been a game of cars or sports lol.
I didnt realise they had a smaller budget for this gam, but that would explain a lot of the missing features and the lack of quality in some areas. Its a shame this didnt get the same attention the previous two did. But still a fantastic game. Lets hope for a Docksiders 4, even though we already have Genesis
@@SlickGaming1 no genesis's is a side story this isn't the did say there commited to the darksider francise
I love the way her Abyssal armor looks.
It's a shame we didnt get more alternative outfits that change the look dramatically, like the Abyssal Armor
Its a shame how people just trashed this at release. It deserved better. Its not some masterpiece, but it definitely doesnt deserve 4/10 type scores. The small team did amazing things for what they had. If this same developer had AAA budget this would have been freaking incredible, but instead they still made a good game.
100% Agreed. I'd love a revival of the franchise, because all the Darksiders games were great
Darksiders 2 is still the best; the loot, the exploration, the combat, unbeatable.
I think there is not arguing with that 😅
@@SlickGaming1 yea wish the made another one like it :(
@@BenjiPrice502 Can only hope they make a number 4!
Only that it lacks in story. it has tons of lore, but the actual plot? death is just an errand boy for everyone. Fury has a better arc in her game imo.
@@Kramway99 Fury definitely has more character development than death. But I feel like death's story was more focused on world building and setting up the darksiders universe.
This is just the video I was looking for. I'm thinking about giving it another shot. I absolutely loved Darksiders 2 and was shocked with the way this game was. I needed an overview like this to give me an idea of what to expect. The combat was a big deal for me but I think I'll push through and try again
Glad the video was helpful.😁 I think this game is criminally underrated, but not quite good enough to compete with Darksiders 2.
This is a great video that I wish more reviewers would do. I don't want to know about some jaded gamers first impression; I want to know how the game holds up after all the (now mandatory) patches and dlc. You've sold me on a game I literally had no interest in playing simply because reviewers made the game seem like a downgrade from 2. So it isn't as much a downgrade as it is a change in gameplay/combat direction.
I'm glad you found the review helpful!!😁 I hope you find this game as enjoyable as I do!
Great review! Was looking to buy a new game and thought about this one on Steam. Loved Darksiders 2 to death and the combat change to something less arcade like is a turn off. Appreciate the video.
Thanks! Look this game is fantastic, with a great story. But yeh, if your not a fan of the more serious combat, as appose to the arcade combat from darksiders 2, I wouldn't recommend it. Still a stunning game. 😁
@@SlickGaming1 no this is more like the first darksider in every way they did that because the second game was really hated I rember alot people didn't like the RPG system bthey didn't like the combat and they didn't like the open world
Don't know why everybody seemingly are sh*tting on this game. I recently played it (as the first Darksiders game ever), and I consider it an hidden gem. Beautiful graphics (which everybody also seems to hate), silky smooth 60fps, decent combat (feels good to dodge at the right moment), decent platforming, decent puzzles, decent story telling (the story is better than the execution), backtracking in metroidvania style. On the downside the leveling system and weapon upgrades are too simple, and the camera only nearly works. The camera is really bad. And combat is also a bit too simple.
But overall a good experience, and I hope for a Darksiders 4
Have you played Darksiders 1 and 2? I think the reason people hate on it is because its a lot different to those two. But I 100% agree about what your saying about Darksiders 3!
@@SlickGaming1 No Never tried Darksiders I & II, don't know if I should try one of those next, or maybe try Dark Souls 3 or Bloodborn. Never played any souls games before
@@diligencehumility6971 tough choice! I'd say Darksiders! But that's my personal experience of the franchise! Probably one of my favourites
Silky smooth 60fps? what monster were you playing this game on. Game runs like crap on most consoles
@@klue1381 a laptop with RTX 2060
Can we also just talk about how the guy that is talking with the big red galaxy thing sounds exactly like Aurelion Sol, speaking of Asol. I hear you are an avid League of Legends player, would you ever consider doing a deep analytical review of that game. Great vid though keep it up 8D
this seems like a bit of a bait here Seb. But I doubt I will make a league of legends video anytime soon
I will say this. The betrayal of the Watcher was such a good parralell to Darksiders 1 and i am not expeecting a watcher in Darksiders 4 if they make one but if they do introduce a new Watcher and a new Darksiders i know what to expect of it.
I know I wasn't ready for it. But it's a great deception. I think its highly unlikely there will be another Darksiders, let alone another Watcher. As much as I'd love one to be.
Too tryhard opening.
And Jedi Fallen Order came a year AFTER Darksiders 3.
Jesus....
They made significant changes to each difficulty after the game was out for a while, I beat the game on the original hardest difficulty, you get a gold trophy for it, before any patches dropped.
I find it funny that Fury feels the weakest of the 3 Horsemen we played so far despite she has full access to her power from the begining lore wise because she was sent by the Charred Council. War was nerfed because he was punished and had much of his strength stripped from him and Death nerfed because he was going something not sanctioned by the Charred Council thus not having full access to his full power.
I do agree. However Fury had to slay the 7 sins, which the chard council said had required the 4 horseman last time. But you are right, she doesn't have anything restricting her power at the start, yet she is really weak. And build on it over the game.
@@SlickGaming1 I think all of the Horsemen would be capable of doing the same, sending all 4 would just save time. The only Sin I see giving anyone trouble would be Wrath because he gets stronger if you fight him with anger. Death could probably kill Wrath because he seems to be the most composed of the 4, War would probably draw with Wrath like Fury did on her first encounter because he is known for going on berserker rampages.
@@anthonyroberts7486 I agree, I think that death and war could do it as well.
wow I love this video. I've never played Darksiders 3 yet but I will give it a shot
Glad to hear it!! Its a wonderful serious I think lost of people should try
You really should (if you can)
Have you?
When I first saw the game play trailers for this game I thought it looked liked crap.
This last month it was on Xbox game pass, so I thought I would give it a try.'
Wow. This is a really fun game. I can honestly say I think this is my favorite darksiders game yet, though I still have genesis to play.
Great game.
And yes, I would say this game is more souls like.
But it's easy souls. And I love that. The gameplay is addictive. I don't get bored, and the soulsborne games bore me after a while.
I was of the same opinion originally. But this is one of those games that once you've played it, you appreciate it a lot more!
The game looks awesome in Series X specially.
Damn it’s been 3 years
Makes me feel old! Hahah
I think the puzzles are okay. it for some reason fits with the more combat focus gameplay of the game. having those puzzles/platforming as a breather between the action. while in the previous games you certainly feel like the whole game is a puzzle with some combat gauntlet in between. I prefer this one better imo.
I agree for Darksiders 1 and 2, they both had a lot of puzzles and then had combat to break it up. But Darksiders 3 really lacks any sort of puzzles I feel.
In the comics I heard she was like a mage but in the game she doesn't do anything magic related
From a lore perspective this is a shame. I do like to imagine what Fury would be like if she was a mage/spellslinger in the game.
I never felt like a horseman of the apocalypse while playing ds3 that's my biggest issue. How does a horseman die to a grunt?
Can agree with this./ I was a little annoyed that the Horse died so easily. Surely they could come up with another reason for not letting us ride a horse.
There is little to NO game in which difficulty relates to more enemies. Difficulty in 98% of the cases IS you taking more damage and enemies dealing more. THAT IS HOW DIFFICULTY WORKS
Never played this darksider game that definitely come out getting it I love games where you could play games as female character

Thank you! 😀
Darksiders 2 is the best in the series 😍❤️
Can't disagree with that!
@@SlickGaming1 I've bought it too many times
@@SlickGaming1 I played the darksiders 2 Google app for the free Dlc😁
@@Mojavekight17 One for each console and pc?? 😂
@@SlickGaming1 2 Ps3 copies, 1 ps4 copy, 1 steam and the switch port 🤣
I played the first game. Gonna wait for a Series X fps boost to play the rest.
How did you find the first game? 🤔
The closest thing to a classic Zelda game for the Ps5 or Xbox. That and the great satisfying combat with simple mechanisms make this an amazing game. Cant wait to play the others when the fps boosts come.
You deserve more subscribers. I wish to see your take on DS Genesis if you have not done it already
Subscribed.
Thanks! 😁 I haven't played DS in so long. I didn't even realise the released it on DS 😮
@@SlickGaming1 lol, I apologize for the mistake. I meant Darksider genesis. The coop game of strife and war.
@@NexusGamingPR 🤦♂️ I feel stupid! 😂 I've actually been playing Darksiders Genesis over the last week. Its definitely a decent game. I love the story and lore.
Loved the review i agree with everything you said except for the story in my personal opinion i would have preferred Death to lead the horesmen because he showed his loyalty to his family by showing how far he went to save War but in any case i would still like to start playing the game👌
I think its hard to pick a leader amongst the horseman, they are all great leaders in their own way.
I actually hated the puzzles in darksiders 2, so i dont mind the lack of them.
why is that? do you like other puzzles in games? or is it Darksiders 2 specifically
@@SlickGaming1 idk it was just too much for me in darksiders 2, i dont mind puzzles in general, blasted through Darksiders 1, even got all achievements for it, loved it. I just felt that there was just to much of it in Darksiders 2, at least up to the point where i stopped playing. But my love for Darksiders kinda reignited, i think i will play through Darksiders 3 and then give Darksiders 2 another shot.
I love Darksiders 1 because of the gameplay honestly it's my favorite
I love Darksiders 2 because I like death's character not a big fan of the loot stuff and it did feel like a lot of busy work
And with three story arc seems pretty cool go from weak asshole to strong Warrior to simplify it
That's one way of putting it! Have you played Darksiders Genisis?
@@SlickGaming1 I honestly haven't made up my mind yet, I think I'm going to buy 3 and beat that before deciding.
@@spectacularpoopfly8464 Well that would be the way to go I think!
She does not feel that powerful because the enhancements are needed to build her strength of course
Agreed. By the end of the game, you feel pretty unstoppable.
DS3 had 1/10 of the budget DS2 had, so all the blaming you do devs not doing this or that is kinda funny.
You wanna button mash and not think? Level up panalopy of champions, put balanced obscurus in your whip, press Z and have fun. DS2 experience, almost unlimited Havoc form.
I'm fully aware of the situation behind the sense. A lot of my arguments and issues with games are there for arguments sake. But in saying this , lots of games build of the foundation of the previous one. For example Darksiders 2 did just that.
Around 50% of the video is a direct comparison with Darksiders 2 and how many of its features are not present in 3. One thing that was not even mentioned however is that this game was developed with nearly HALF of the budget that Darksiders 2 had and probably lower than Darksiders 1. Having execute animations, extra dungeons with puzzles for example is all extra dev that costs money. Also, am not trying to be picky, but you are also complaining about things that are tight to the game balance - for example, imagine the hammer with the storm hollow enchant for chaining damage. You will clear a room with 1 perfect dodge.
I think the decided to simply take a different direction with the game. Its the same thing as Darksiders being compared to Darksiders 2. Just because its different doesn't mean its bad. A lot of my criticism is for just the sake of criticism. I think my suggestion of the weapons being usable with any element, is something that would obviously need to be tested and balanced.
i like darksiders 3 i liked fury as a character.
I love her character ark. Her development over the story is really fun and satisfying to see.
While I have mixed opinions about this game, it may be a good game but if I ever complain about something is lack of horse riding which if it was in the game everything would’ve been forgiven. Another reason why I got mixed opinions is the fact that fury is depicted as a mage(and you can read that in google and the game’s description on ps store) and since I was expecting that before playing ds3 she doesn’t feel like a mage now I know she has arcane damage but if the devs wanted to make you feel like she’s a mage they could’ve just give some spells to cast with its own magic meter and make her a balance between melee and magic but sadly in the darksiders boardgame her arsenal feels more interesting wrath wise. There’s even a reddit page where you can read people’s disapointment about that but I wonder if her gameplay will change in the ds5 or the sequel to genesis but anyway at 5:03 what mod did you use for fury? she looks better than she does in base game.
I think the use of furies horseman would be really nice. Obviously they would need to change the world a little more to implement it. I never knew that. I would have been cool to see her as a sorcerer/mage. Because if that's true, your 100% right! they should have a mana system of sorts with actual separate abilities.
Also the mods of her more Lore accurate outfit I believe: www.nexusmods.com/darksiders3/mods/4
I find it funny that Death played more like mage with his necromancer abilities than Fury does even though she is suppose to be a mage.
@@anthonyroberts7486 yeah and even in one part of death’s door and some parts in the book he feels like a mage but fury while she’s officially depicted like one feels more like a whipcracker first and foremost even in the comics and the book like couldn’t they just make her cast spells and what’s worse is that the writers couldn’t make up their minds about it unlike strife who’s said to be a gunslinger and even feels like one already. Anyway feel free to say something like this on reddit or twitter.
@@anthonyroberts7486 I think that's because Fury doesn't really have any extra abilities, apart from well timed dodges and traversal mechanics.
A level of skill to the combat? Have you played the last game with death???
Darcksiders 2 combat is a lot easier then Darksiders 3 combat in my opinion
This game could’ve been awesome if not forced into being a souls-like. Souls-likes about tailor crafted enemy design and animations yet none are present here.
They knew how to make an action rpg filler with puzzles and should’ve just done that. It’s a good game but a terrible souls-like and overalş quality is affected by it.
Played it 2 times but I have no desire to play it but Darksider 2, despite it’s flaws makes me want to play it at least once a year.
Couldn't agree more. They need to have continue the success of Darksiders 2, rather than hop on the souls like hype that was dominating the industry at the time. It would have been something new.
Normally when I post a comment replying to reviews I would usually give a counter argument to why I disagree. But for this I won't. I will just tell what I think of Darksiders 3 as a game. Personally I loved it alot. I didn't really care about the changes game to to game as long as it feels like a Dark Siders game if that makes sense. Which is does it me atleast. As far as RPG mechanics I don't care either way. I was more intrigued in the combat side of things then rpg elements. Once I had gotten to end game I just stuck to the spear mostly since the special attack scales with intelligence. But the game did frustrate me at times. A few enemies like the hammer wielding skeletons and the angels dealing very high damage with litte time to react especially when mixed in with smaller mobs. But the game overall was very fun and I was surprised how well they handled Fury's character growth. In conclusion was this game a Masterpiece? No
Does it deserve the criticism it gets from reviews? Thats subjective really.
Do I love this game? Absolutely 100% outside of a few bugs on release and few nitpicks I have Personally. Darksiders 3 is my favorite game in the series so far and I can't wait to see what they do with the offical 4th entry. ^_^ Great review and it was interesting to hear your point of view.
I 100% agree with you! I think no matter what the change from Darksiders 2 to 3, it still feels like it belongs in the universe. I like that they change up[ the gameplay each iteration, it makes it feel fresh and each entry feel unique. I'm also excited for Darksiders 4, if we ever get it.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the review. 😁
@@SlickGaming1 Your welcome. Sorry for the poor grammar and spelling errors. English isn't my first language so I am what I know and Google translate. Its comes out weird sometime.
@@K-popQueenSoo-Ah No problem, I'm a bit lazy when it comes to English anyways 😅😂
Nice for you I think Darksiders 2 the best game in series but I as well love Darksiders and Darksiders 3 and can't wait to see what will Darksiders 4
You forgot the worst part of DS3, the crystals based boost.
In DS2 you can assign the potions to a shortcuts and use without distracction from the combat, is perfect . In DS3 you have 12 in a rotary selector that takes a long time to circle to find an item and they use the same image and painted the same color increasing the time to ID. Meanwhile you only have fracctions of a second to react to the enemy or you will die. Is crap, the biggest downgrade of a mechanic in a game series I ever experience.
:( Dang that suuucks.. thanks for the info! Was thinking about purchasing tbis next month but nah, too many turn offs. The first two are great enough untill a 4th. Hopefully.
From memory there was a button you could use to quickly swap that to a healing potion. I believe it was down on the D-pad. But again it doesn't solve the issue, because there are varying strengths on the healing items, so quickly swapping to one, doesn't guarantee its the one you want.
you say they made for the previous games but they didn't make them for the previous games, its a different studio
It's a bit of a messy development for the franchise. So Darksiders 1 and 2 were developed by Vigil Games and published by THQ Nordic. However Vigil Games split, I can't remember why they did, and a lot of their team went to work for Gunfire games who also helped develop Darksiders 2. Obviously THQ wanted a third Darksiders game so they asked Gunfire games to make it. Hopefully that isn't to confusing.
If you r interested in learning more I'd recommend watching the documentary on them: czcams.com/video/G4i3_-AxhkI/video.html
between 6:44 to 7.14..... sums it up perfectly and is why this game flopped and they killed my childhood did anyone even complain about the combat in darksiders !!!!???? everyone even praised it for being zelda/devil may cry/god of war recipe for badassery looking forward to watching all your vids love it :)
Thanks! I'm Glad you enjoyed the video. It's a shame that the series might not get the conclusion it deserved.
Let me sum this up
Too much darksouls too little Darksiders
Was a shame to not include everything from darksiders 2
Why is there a delay before healing when enemies don’t relent?! Why am I getting 2 shot on the 3/5th difficulty?! Why is the first game so much better, I haven’t gotten this mad at a game in so long. This ones so unfair and broken
Lower the difficulty.
It's meant to be a lot more challenging. It took a dark souls approach, so the game is a lot more challenging.
@@Maverick.D. I've come to realize it also runs like dogshit on PS4, the constant frame drops and loads are ridiculous. just gonna wait til i can play on pc
6:55
To be fair, God of War did it and it turned out to be a hit
You do know this games budget is far lower than 2 right darksider 2 was A triple A game this is a AA game
I didn't know that. 😯
@@SlickGaming1 even the first game was AAA but as you know THQ whent under and machine games is a AA studio with old darksider Devs
Also as you can see they are getting better the proof is in remnants from the ashes
This game need to be updated on PS5
would run smoother, and look even better! I wouldn't complain 😮
"Enhancements are redundant and do not effect how a fight will play out". Wrong sir! I will argue that enhancements are the whole point in building your character and what adds that extra layer that the combat needs
I think the stats don't change enough. While they do help a playstyle out, I think they don't make enough of a difference
@@SlickGaming1 what would have made a difference if you make one yourself?
i much rather the button mashy kill frenzy gameplay for this series what's hilarious is that making it souls-like made the game a generic action game because now everything is a souls game...they should have stuck to their guns just like devil may cry did and that's why dmc fans have remained so dedicated and loyal even emo dante kept the familiar fast past action, what thq did was cowardly
Agreed. unfortunately they must have seen the money other Souls-like games were making, and thought they could do the same. unfortunately costing them their player base.
This game is so fun and beautiful. Challenging! Looks amazing on the Series X! And it is often on discount.
Such a great looking game! Have you played any of the previous games?

@@arturom628 Hopefully you enjoy them just as much!
You told me to strap in but i havea strap on does this matter?
This might be a slight issue 😅
still my favorite darksiders game
I don't think I'd be able to choose between this and D2! It's to close for me
The soulsborne games get wayyyyy too much credit for the shoddy job that they do. The hitboxes and hurtboxes are atrocious. The game design is unpolished to the point that it becomes game breaking. The lead characters have no personality, the so called lore is in the weapons and items which just seems like cost cutting to Me. Recycled game models and maps to the extent that every next game looks the same. Yep. I said it. FromSoftware games are shit
I do agree that the souls series gets a lot of credit, but despite its chunkiness, it was the first of that super hardcore game style to really reach a wider audience, it was the breakthrough, much like hollow knight for 2D platformers. That's why the game gets so much credit.
Can you do a prototype review
Haven't played any of them! So I might do.
Kinda like God of War ..old school fun.
Agreed! Definitely lots of fun!
DS fans are weird ones. Some of them will crucify 3 for trying some new things, while 2 is VASTLY different from DS1. I think its humorous when a games fandom behaves like this, selective memories in gaming fans is a funny trait. Also no offence but i wont give you credit for playing this game till you play it as intended, without the EZ mode dodge spam enabled, that youre playing with.
I agree with you about the fans that hate 3, it doesn't make sense at all 🤔 I'm glad they tried to freshen up the series, and I mean visually I much prefer 3 to the cartoonish/stylized graphics of 1 and 2. But I cant complain at all about the visuals of 1 and 2 either.
In terms of your point about darksiders 1 and 2 being vastly different, I agree to an extent, I think that Darksiders 2 added and built on everything that was in darksiders 1, the only thing was, now there's a RPG inventory system with abilities and mechanics. That's why I feel some people don't notice a difference, because the gameplay doesn't change dramatically. Just more features are added.
Also i assume you mean reckoning? when your talking about the dodge spam. In which I did beat the game on in my second playthrough 😁
Yeah personally me love all games of Darksiders series I prefer though Darksiders 2 over Darksiders 1 and 3 they like 7/10 for me and Darksiders 2 8/10 can't wait for Darksiders 4
@@godofdeath8785 I can agree with that. Darksiders 2 was definitely the best game in the series so far. Lets hope 4 is coming sometime soon.
@@SlickGaming1 yeah hope bit wait for Darksiders 4
To me Darksiders 3 felt a lot closer to the first one that Darksiders 2 ever did 🤷♀️
Comparing this dork souls trash fire to darksiders 2 is insulting to the masterpiece that is Death's adventure. Darksiders 3 screwed up in EVERY SINGLE ASPECT aside from the art direction. And even the art direction as awesome as it is, was held back by the idiot developer that decided to make the game's settings on Earth and having it be a fucking dork souls bootleg. This game is an embarrassment. And honestly, from what I've played of darksiders genesis, while it wasn't glitching up the arse, it doesn't fair much better.
I won't disagree that Darksiders 2 is a masterpiece of a game. I think its a must play for anyone who's a fan of the genre. But in saying that, I think they wanted to try something new with Darksiders 3. I mean Darksiders 2 changed more dramatically from Darksiders 1 than Darksiders 3 I'd argue. It's clear that it didn't work, but I still think that Darksiders 3 is a solid title at the very least. Lets Hope we get the 4th some time soon.

Recently played it again, it's still an unnecessary game
Let's agree that the gameplay is terrible and world design was from a bygone era
In terms of the narrative, It really didn't utilise on the epic scale darksiders 1 and 2 built. Everyone's unlikable and the whole story felt meaningless even tho they tried their hardest to act like it was important.
Even tho darksiders genesis was forgettable, it didnt pretend to be something important to the grand scheme of things.
The thing is, I can't agree with the gameplay being terrible. Sure its not dark souls quality, but its a solid and at the very least fun system. It might get a little stale towards the end of your playthrough, but that's really it.
The story is not as grand or interesting as Darksiders 1 and 2, but it does a hell of a lot of World building. Which for new players, doesn't mean much, but for returning players of the franchise, is at least something top enjoy.

How a darksider should be is like how darksider genesis's is u don't mean the top down view I mean how the game work's it's open and can't be explored chest has meaning. Darksider was never ment to be a loot game it was supposed to be a games where you find an item that only that specific hourseman can use. Not once did I feel death had any special item's that special to him and the weapons he is all the other hourseman weapons he for some reason could pick up Strife weapons witch devalues Strife own special weapons.
This is what I didn't like they made Darksider an RPG instead of an Hack and slash
@@SlickGaming1 I don't think it's a bad game but they put too much in the game
@@EmperorDxD I personally like the massive world, sure it was a little empty, but everything was justified, in my opinion.
I think your right about the weapons. They don't feel very specific to death, because they just drop on the ground. However I think the items used in puzzles feel somewhat death specific. They are used in his journey alone, the only similarity is the hook ability.
@@SlickGaming1 darksider was never a open world game it was about the housemen and there specific ability
Welll. The game offers more than this review does. 2 thumbs downn. Booo. I Booo you Booooo!
Which is?
Man this game upgrade system bis just like the first game did you play the first darksider this game is more like that because if you didn't know everyone hated the second game it was a whole thing no one liked darksider 2
Darksiders 3 is such a dumbsterfire. I got the game at launch to support the devs and only got to play it for the first time in 2020. Omg what a shitfest it was, in my 3 hours played had 20 crashes to desktop and a bug where my hp changed to zero while adding attributes to hp. I did pick it up again this week to see the story and by far this is the weakest game in the darksiders series.
Really? I think you might have gotten all my bugs and crashes 😅 Because I barely had any in my time playing the game. I think they diversified the game to much from 1 and 2 and that's what let it down.
@@SlickGaming1 yeah, it was wild. I did love Darksiders Genesis tho. It was a breath of fresh air and it was made by the guys who made battle chasers nightwar, loved that game to death even played it a second time which i rarely do.
@@Setorrs They also made Ruined King, which is a league game. I would recommend if it interests you at all!
@@SlickGaming1 i know about the game but i don't really like league nor played the game for more than 5 games. I did recommend the game to some of my friends that like league.
