Just Death Things™

- More or less just a compilation of all the moments in Darksiders II when Death has been a king of sass and sarcasm (that I could find footage of), and all the best action cutscenes. A pretty good showcase of his surface-level qualities. Includes a few NPC zingers as well. It's pretty much just a highlight reel that's more for myself than anything I guess, but hey, why not upload it?
- Hry
They somehow made a death character both edgy, cool and not cringy at the same time. He's so cool.
‘Cringe’ is your own inability to let go of your predetermined social norm bullshit. Basically if you ‘cringe’ at things like this then you’re an idiotic sheep with no imagination lmao
@bbluva20 as someone who is a big fan of this game I have to agree.
This game is almost cartoonishly on the nose with its fantasy but in all honesty that's why I like it, which is funny since that's probably the reason why you don't like it lmao
@@bbluva20 Cringe? Nay, you dont know whats is cringe my man, Death is the MF rider of death second to the charred council, that guys kill demigods for breakfast when you have that lvl of power you can be anything you want.
you are cringe too@@bbluva20
I think what stops death from being a totally cringe edgelord is the like, way he communicates
He can be blunt with his words, but at the same time he is so wierdly sassy, with a dark sense of humor to boot.
Other edgy characters are either like, murderhobos or stone walls or both
Death is written so human
Yeah he's edgy, but he can be humorous when he's in a....less bad...mood
I don't think he was ever really in a good mood and I don't blame him, id be moody if I kept ending up in places I don't really want to be meeting old faces I didn't want to meet that send me to do things they're too lazy to do.
Screw the second world, why did _I_ have to grab those stupid judges? Keep em on a tighter leash, idiot
It will forever be a CRIME this game and it's entire series didn't get their proper flowers.
This is one of my favorite games
@@bbluva20only retards and children use the term "mid"
@@bbluva20You're the kind of guy to kick a homeless orphan and tell then others have it worse...
Hidden jewels are always the best
Darksiders 3 was good. Maybe one day we'll get a 4th game that actually moves the timeline forwards from the end of 1 lol
What works so well for Death’s character is that he’s unapologetically blunt. If you ever heard the saying “Life is a beautiful lie, and Death is an ugly truth,” it fits perfectly.
But he can also be “gentle” like he is towards the Survivor in the Balial(?) DLC
Death: "And what makes you think i have a soul, old one?"
Ainard: "Isn't that what troubles you?"
Never in my years heard anyone give Death the biggest "fuck you" ever.
"Horseman... Do you ever doubt your future?"
"no."
*Chuckles* "Impossible"
- Death after he sees the potion jump up and down for the 100th time
"This is no place for a horse."
"i have to go alone"
@@zegolem3607"I hafta go alone 😔"
"I need more Wrath.."
"This is no place for a horse...
"
Who'd have thought Death would be such a helpful guy?
he actually needs to be the smart and nice guy, he's not only death himself, but the strongest among the horsemen as well as their leader, they respect him a lot. You know war's big arm? death was the one who cut off his arm after he was on an rampage
Death is and has never been an evil entity, he's an ANGEL remember????? One of Gods "first born"
@@megatron6713 Not an angel. Angels are their own thing in Heaven. Horsemen are the Nephilim, demon and angel hybrid.
@@KestalDoern I know I mean in the actual Bible
@@megatron6713 Yeah, actually the Bible differs the pale horseman and Azrael. So does this game as well.
I love this interpretation of Death. Dry, snarky, and ruthless. Yet, despite his demeanor and purpose, he's probably the Horseman with the most humanity to him. Portraying Death as an wandering ronin-like character is such a great choice. And making it clear that he values life more than anything really adds to his narrative function. Also, the first two Dark Souls give off a great Guiermo del Torro vibe similar to the Hellboy films. Such a shame the series never got its due.
I actually watch someone do a video on Death, how he was the most human and sought to preserve life rather than see its destruction. It was genuinely interesting and thought provoking.
@@Reige17 you have a link to the video?
@@The-Creeper69 It's a video titled Darksiders 2: The Beauty of Death
I remember the first time I played this game and Death entered the Crowfather hall. I thought, if they screw his voice, I am uninstalling this and don't wanna see it.
And when he spoke it couldn't be a better voice for him! His character is so well made that it's almost real!
yeah his voice is such a f badass thing. Matches his personality.
Michael Wincott has a great voice. He’s a great actor too, but underutilized.
Too bad we never got to hear him again in Darksiders 3.
You know, that's a great point. A voice can easily make or break a character
@@videopolice432 It was such a disappointment.
7:28 "How many times would you have me kill him?"
I love this line so much. There's something so apathetic and above-it-all in the way Death says it. Like, this is the Maker's greatest and most powerful creation in a very long time, and is Death angry because it's being brought back to life mere seconds after he destroyed it? Or maybe he's worried about the potential destruction this thing could bring upon this land? Nope, he's just... mildly annoyed. It's like he's saying: "Oh come on,man! I JUST cleaned this mess up. Can we keep this shit fixed for one fucking moment?" 😂
Death, while being the most feared being in all of creation, strongest among the horsemen and their leader, having an harsh tongue, is still the most helpful and heartful knight
''Death... You are not so cold as you would have us believe.'' - Oran
''Well, keep that to yourself, old one.'' - Death
I thought war was the leader
@@markusallen6818 Nope, he definitely isn't. It becomes especially clear in The Abomination Vault.
@@TheStraightestWhitest my bad
I love how unapologetically DONE with everyone's shit they made death. Fits him perfectly, ngl.
I kinda remember one scene with the Chancellor which was one of my favourite quotes:
Chancellor: Oh my Apologies, Horseman, but The Lord of Bones only speaks to those who are important in this realm
Death: Then you must rarely see him Chancellor
Literally replaying the game rn, you're spot on
The lord of bones only sees those who are important in his relm
Isn't he like a whole 1/4th of what's keeping you in business
I haven't played the game but I've played the other two I'm just waiting for the second one to come on special because I'm broke.
But that was a sick burn that I'm looking forward to 🔥😂
"No.
Not alone"
I only ever played Darksiders 2, but fucking hell this line is so good.
Dang, you peaked early. Played the best one first
That's not to say Darksiders 1, 3 & Genesis aren't good but yes, Darksiders 2 is the best one
I recommend playing it. War has some badass lines throughout the game and his VA is really good
This line sound even better in the first game
15:08 Death HAS HAD ENOUGH BS.
"Horseman, do you ever doubt your future?"
"No."
BWAH- He's so blunt, I love it!
Gotta love death's snark
PA/
I always thought a crowfather round two fight would be awesome. He very clearly tricked death into killing him, which leads me to believe he was holding back.
Crowfather: either way I win
I don't think he tricked him; I think he was just completely out of his mind due to the Amulet. He certainly didn't look to me like he wanted to die before Death impaled him. Of course if he had been using magic instead of trying to out-fight Death, the battle would likely have been significantly longer.
6:49 I love
Death's little squint here.
He M A D
I like how in the spanish version, when crowfather say, "you wont pass will i live" death instead of "so be it" says "then die"
Based af honestly
PAUL RANGER ,YUO, FDE,24,💯🇨🇦😎✨✌️👏🖖🙌😀🤙
Death was such an unapologetic character. He literally said what every player wanted to say during fetch quests.
A dish?!
You want me to fetch you a dish!??
Between all 3 games ive always had a soft spot for this ones art style
21:46 That's amazing voice acting.
Man, watching this reminds me how badass Darksiders 2 was.
And that Guardian boss still gives me chills.
3:32 I laughed so hard here!
Every time
one of the very few times i've looked back on a game from my childhood and it actually looks just as good as i remember, amazing
Stylized graphics really helps games like these age well.
You skipped one of the best death's quotes "you'll find me strong enough samael"
I was moreso lumping in all the snark moments rather than Every Single Moment I Like. If I put in Everything like that it would be an hour long or more
@@Violyte64 i know brother 😅
It was one of my favorite scenes
Nice video and good job👍👏 i forgot to say that
7:28 Me after beating the final boss and the game breaks.
“Horseman do you ever doubt your future?”
“No.”
Literal specter of death drops out of the sky:
"This seems like a bad omen"
"Give me the demon key and it will be our little, secret ?" Probably the funniest Death line
This is the guy who play Top Dollar from The Crow.
Michael Wincott.
Tell me not the maker shaman was fine as hell😂😂😂😂
Was mommy before mommy became a thing 😂😂😂
@@damiongist2158 ngl she fueled my fetish when i was an innocent lad 💀
Can you all get a room pls?
@@graveslayer9666 as long as it's with that waifu maker 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
2:39
Why does my man low-key sound like hes trying to rizz her up
Of all the Makers to rizz up, it'd definitely be her.
They call me pup or lad, but I got my own name” Karn”
Pup it is then 😂😂😂
Who knew the reaper is such a savage
He doesn’t Just slay with his scythes (though they do help quite a bit)
I did.......read the fucking bible
Plot twist: Absolon caused the coronavirus.
lmao
Who is absolon?
And the Charred Council decreed that everyone should stay indoors to flatten the curve.
@@ryanmarcum9044 but war misinterpreted the information
The final boss
I’ve played through this game probably 6 times. I love this series. I wish they would make more
They did make 3 and Genesis.
@@KashKey- if I’ve played the second one 6 times and I said I love the SERIES one might imply that I’ve already played all 4 games and am referring to additional games passed Genesis. Using your brain is hard
@@KingOfCreampies Look I didn't know one of my favorite games of all time got a sequel for years, I was just trying to be helpful. No need to be an ass.
I don't know why Lilith having jiggle physics made me snort
"you will not pass as long as I live"
>Fights against THE DEATH itself
"i'm not here to put you out of your misery."
two seconds later
death kills the crow father
well hey
he did say "not yet"
and he waited two whole seconds
Misery not mystery
@@megatron6713 right I didnt notice at the time thanks for correcting it
15:00 laughed when I first saw this
I remember my dad once saw the cutscenes probably thinking it was a series. I was a kid at the time but it's still funny to me. The memories
What can I say about this character? Literally I have no words but for sure I am in love ❤ with DEATH. I have played many games but I never found myself such excited as I was while playing with this HORSEMAN. At times he is calm as well as Savage too. Wanna play more with DEATH in upcoming DARKSIDERS series. Please make it happen.
Well, He's the leader, as He told war once as He cut off his arm, He needs to give the exemple and discipline
Been so long since I played this game, forgot how sick it was
"Do you ever doubt your future?"
"No."
Chad
4:42 😊
Aww, I was hoping to see the line where Death tells the Chancelor he must rarely see the Lord of Bones. The rest is amazing though.
How can this guy be more edgier then his own blades?
That is so cinematically well done 16:07
Nothing felt more relatable than Death saying "How many times will you have me kill it" when the Guardian was getting revived by Eideard. I also noticed the graphics seem a little... odd. Is this the old version before the Deathinitive edition?
It might be, this video seems to be a collection of different saves. Saw some steam and Playstation achievements
I love how he grows to genuinely love the Makers, in his own way.
I always like the ways that War and Death always take out their enemies.
Michael Wincott. Best choice to voice Death. 👌
I think it's great that he's associated with crows when you realise what the actor whose played death has been in the past
ngl, i really love the voice actor for Death, he just sounds like how you would expect death to sound like
I wish Michael Wincott was in more roles.
Why does Death have such a sexy voice!?!🥵🥵🥵
As a treat for anyone who buys the game
Snide, snarky, snippy. Death is all these things
2:34 but he can also be polite and formal
By far, the best horsemen
Death is strongest one on the horsmen
He Works While You Talk 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
3:39 "Youre different than the others, less pleasant on the eyes for one"
"the other pleasant on the eyes" in question: 2:33
Inspite of the line at 02:39, it seems the character Death in Darksiders is just a name, not the actual personification of death.
It's a take on the Horseman, Death, from Christian mythos
The horseman of death is the personification of Death in the bible (Even if this Death is a nephilim is still the horseman).
There is no Grim Reaper in the bible, that's an ambiguous entinty that takes inspiration from Thanatos the greek god of death and Mictlacihuatl an aztec goddess who watches over the death (Known today as "La santa muerte" by some mexican folk). And maybe takes inspiration from Abbadon aswell (The Abbadon from the bible, not the one in this franchise)
@@reptahv1954 what about Azrael?
@@WaldoTheWombat Azrael is the angel of death, yes. But his rol is more of a guardian of the dead in the heavens (His name translate as "The one whom God helps"), he clearly is one of the inspirations to the people to create the Grim reaper aswell, but is not it.
My point is tha the Grim reaper is an entity that doesn't belong to any mythos, is just a more modern conglomeration of different beliefs.
@@WaldoTheWombat Most of the angel and demon Darksiders characters are based on angels and demons who are actually named and exist in biblical mythos. Azrael is known as the angel of death, both in Darksiders and in real life biblical lore.
21:18 DENIED!!!!!!
All i can say is this,
Justice for the judicator😂
12:10 Lord of bones: how dare you crush that skull that I’ve been staring at for 5000 years without me telling you to!
That was his favorite skull
12:50 How I felt after beating this boss
19:30 Secret my ass, people would hella blame Samael if a whole race revived
I love how ridiculously patient they are with him.
I mean he IS death itself
Death is a wonderful character, despite his name. He does whatever he pleases for the sake of the Balance, most importantly he cares for his brother. He has no evidence War didn't caused the Apocalypse, he just believes he's innocent.
Thank you for uploading this
Death is a good guy acting as a bad one. And thats how they made him an excellent character.
Even with his mathernal (yes, mathernal) instincts when he interacts with Pup
One of my all time fave games, I had so much fun playing this.
Its a damn shame this series didn't take off
i cant be the only one that thinks death's weapon is awesome
Darksiders 2 will remain my favorite games of all time.
Do you ever doubt you future..?
No...
this is the best darksiders
i forgot games are allowed to have good animations
Darksiders 2 was so good. Loved Death's voice. It fits him perfectly. He's a super edge lord but it doesn't cross into cringe territory imo and enhances the story as his character softens over the course of the game
1 of my all time favorite character 😃
i still listen to the guardian fight soundtract to this day. amazing game
the darksiders series is so good
Death is edgy enough to be cool and entertaining, but not so much that he becomes unbearable. A great balance, honestly.
This game was a staple of my childhood
I hope one day this series gets looked back on...
Note: Straight up #1 game on my lists of games.
Someone should’ve shown death some videos of black friday stampedes or our political systems. He wouldn’t be in such a hurry to resurrect humanity after that.
I feel like I should go back and play these after all
Asked my what does she think death looks like and she said that this is what most people say death looks like
I helped you once horseman look at me now how i course that day how i course you!!!
You will not pass while i live!!!
My secrets but not yours!!
The crowfather is the best after death!!!
No, Dust is best after Death!
holy shit the voice actors are going insane
Good thing this games probably getting another one for the series
I'm like "Oh cool, love Darksiders 2, the voice actor for Death is fantastic and has some great lines" and then I realise that probably 60% of the views on this video are from people who want to fuck Death.
And none of them are wrong!
I love this game so much
This was one of my most favorite games ever and I miss it and thanks to this video I'm going to try completing the 3rd game with fury dunno bout new game but still lmao
This makes me want to go redownload the remaster lol
Darksiders 2 will always remain as one of my favorite games of all time and its sad that the 3rd ruined the series
How did it ruin it?
@@cybercase_7807 it felt shallow, like I could see what they were trying to do but it didn't feel right, if that makes sense
My Fav darksider game!
