If you speed thru this game it’s 15 hours. But if you want to find everything the maps and areas are very large and I was quite surprised at how lengthy it is.
you probably dont care but if you are bored like me during the covid times then you can watch all of the latest series on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my brother for the last months =)
I'm playing it none stop...love the universe. I'm totally new to Darksiders series btw. It's a fantastic mix of exploring, hack'n'slck, puzzles and story. Controls are perfect for the Nintendo's sticks especially Strife, he is AWESOME!
Let's be honest, the resolution drops in handheld mode causes your character to turn in a lump of mud sliding across floors covered in mud half the time LOL
Darksiders wasmastered edition on the switch is one of the most enjoyable ports on the nintendo switch, it runs very smoothly and the game is so much fun
I don't know about the Switch version, but I played this on PC in the most "Diablo-ish" fashion (i.e. Mouse and Keyboard) and I thoroughly enjoyed it to the end to be honest.
Not crazy about the overhead camera angle but i enjoyed the first one on wii u (even though i never finished it). This is only $30 (cad) for physical copy... i think im going to pick it up anyway.
its the same version as for xbox one / played it on Series S and it looks awfull ( blurred and resolution its under 900p ). This is developer fault mostly
This port bummed me out. At this point I’m planning on waiting for a PC sale. The game is clearly fun but the frame rate was too bumpy for me and I don’t mind the top down angle but I found it was zoomed too far back for the low res in hand held mode.
Jose 'Juice' Gonzalez don’t buy it on switch some of the area in chapter 7 wasn’t lit up like the one in ps4. So dark and I couldn’t even find some gateways :( i shoulda bought for ps4
Yikes! With all the praise, I found the score to be too low here. An 8 would have been more accurate, especially if you consider it the best of the series. So far I'm loving it! Halfway through.
To me, it isn't worth the price on Switch... 40 bucks with a ridiculously low resolution and a framerate that has hiccups here and there... On PC looks magnificent, 60 fps, 1080p and costs 16 bucks... bloody hell, it could run also on a mid-range portable computer... Also on switch, the color palette doesn't fell right... i mean, it is a lot blurred and darker than on PC.
I agree, this game is too heavy for the switch, I was about to buy it but I was concerned with that, it was then when I realized this title is available on xbox game pass for pc subscription, so I paid 1 euro (first month) and I'm now enjoying it a lot! (Stonks!)
I want to get into the Darksiders games. It reminds me heavily of the classic God of War titles. I loved God of War until they turned it into whatever the hell it is now. I’m cautious on the switch tho. Ninja Gaiden Master collection is a downer. The first game is perfect but the 2nd & 3rd in the collection has some of the worst graphics I’ve ever seen on the switch. It’s a disappointment. I hear Darksiders 1 is great on the switch but I hear Darksiders 2 and Darksiders 3 have some issues. I’m one who if I get the first, I’ll also have to get the 2nd & 3rd. Does anyone know how good the Darksiders Trilogy is on the Switch at this point in time??? Darksiders Genesis does look cool for a side game for sure but the mainline ones look amazing. It sucks that the switch isn’t taken more seriously for people that only have a Switch and only play on the TV with the system docked. I still think Nintendo needs a console separate from their handheld. I love me some action games!!!!
Haven't played 1 but I have played 2 and 3 on Switch. 2 used to have an insane amount of issues but the frame rate is fine now and there are no longer any major bugs, but it freezes for a bit when it loads the next area and the audio has some issues. 3 is my favourite game of the series but I wouldn't recommend the switch version, it runs perfectly fine at first but eventually there are many fps issues and random freezes especially for the second half of the game.
Does this have a performance and quality mode? I say this because of the really good porting job of Darksiders Warmastered having those in the options menu. I kean they should patch it in if it doesn't have it. There is no reason not to have it
It's kinda how darksiders works the first one was a god of war game, the second was more of a zelda looter game and the third a souls/Bayonetta like game and this is hit with diablo style
I think they will bring them all together on the next title, which is supposed to be the continuation where the story has chronologically stopped, in the final of the first one.
This game is available on xbox game pass for pc, so if you have a decent pc gaming I would suggest to not buy it for switch and just get yourself a subscription for at least one month to play it, it will cost u much less for getting much better visual and performance
darksiders was my biggest regret for the PC with the PC unable to comprehend the crazy camera angles that the game insisted on and would end up staring at the floor or random unhelpful angle that causes me to rage quit. Why does this game exist . After previous incapable ports why pay for it
I want it for Switch because of nice laidback gaming but I know I will get it for PC instead because of: -framerate (I mean come on, an ARPG with 30 fps, really? Nobody wants that..) -overall performance -graphics (AA, sharp textures) Only Nintendo exclusives for me then on the Switch I guess so I am waiting one more month for my already preordered Animal Crossing :)
Be warned: Its another lazy Switch port where the devs didnt give a f.... about the size of the UI while playing in handheld mode. Its tiny as hell. For many not rly play- or readable.

How many hours until you finished it mate?
Imagine if god of war an darksiders combined series

I’m playing it on Nintendo Switch, it’s amazing, too bad Darksiders 3 was never released on it. I played 1 & 2 on Xbox 360.
When will it be release? And how much dude?
It was released, you can buy from here:
www.nintendo.com/games/detail/darksiders-genesis-switch/?
How about on handheld? Is it blurry?
It’s fine, I play handheld most of the time
Darksiders wasmastered edition on the switch is one of the most enjoyable ports on the nintendo switch, it runs very smoothly and the game is so much fun
Love these reviews! Great sense of humour and rock solid reviews. Thank you guys and keep up the good work!

Nice!
Love Diablo 3 on console. Defo gonna pick this up with Minecraft Dungeons when that comes out and replay Diablo 3. All on Switch on the go
I have it on PS4 and playing it with my wife, it’s really fun!
3:20 I like that I can see your battery dying.

Its only 10gb. If it's 15+ gb maybe good
Saw this game for just 35 dollars today. Guess I'll be returning to the store after this review. Thanks for the review, keep up the good work.
@CJ P. yeah, stupid of him to not just wait 2 years to just save 19 dollars
@CJ P. I got it for 12
Can you make a full video of waffling? thx bye.
And pancaking
I'll get the maple syrup!
ehhhhhhhhhhhhhlowdereloveLEEwaaaaffle
The frame rate is meh, but I don't mind. I bought this the other night and have been enjoying it. It's still really fun
Is it easy to play online co op with a friend on switch?

Peter Han I bought it day one 😭
Gave it to my nephew
Jose 'Juice' Gonzalez: Oh nigha stop complaining geesh!!!!
This game is available on xbox game pass for PC
The 3rd leviathan core is impossible to get on the switch.
I think this part is broken.
😂😂😂
So Diablo meets old school GoW
Does it have a good Grundy endgame like diablo
My dude.. I bought the game the second it was released
I want Alex to narrate my life
Camera is too far away.
I have just bought it and I have noticed that it has been censored (no blood), or at least the intro has been censored.
Buy right now 🥳 - amazing action game IMHO!
Yikes! With all the praise, I found the score to be too low here. An 8 would have been more accurate, especially if you consider it the best of the series. So far I'm loving it! Halfway through.
They mention in the written version of this review that it would in fact be an 8 if it didn't have the performance issues.

Essentially a better Diablo than what Blizzard is making at the moment.
I wanna play this but I want to beat darksiders 2 and 3 first. Darksiders 1 is pretty good.

Kevin Vo it doesn’t. But that would be a welcomed addition...
I dont see a picture just audio
Edit: after clicking another video and returning, it worked 😳
I never realised that whole darksiders series is on switch, i only played the 1st game on steam. why the genesis become gameplay with bird eye view ?
It's kinda how darksiders works the first one was a god of war game, the second was more of a zelda looter game and the third a souls/Bayonetta like game and this is hit with diablo style
really wanted to like this game, but on switch its just too blurry...feels very bad to me. maybe my worst visual graphics game
Do you have the game?
@@rhovenom04 yep
I bought it.
Gameplay: 9.5 / 10
Story: 6.5 / 10
The ending is so confusing ... It's my opinion BTW.
Darksiders 1 to 3 ending also 😜
If you gave this game story a 6, I have a feeling you are kinda lost on it.
When is Darksiders SNES coming out?
Crappy and blurred and so small.. waste of money... stupid game... diablo is way more better. Dont buy this game... you r warned.
You said hitherto
So did you.
@@nintendolife 🤣
I thought you could play as all the horsemen from the darksiders 1-3 and strife?
Nope. Or at least not yet. They said they aren't opposed to putting Fury and Death in the game, but depends on fans reactions (and sales, obviously.)
I think they will bring them all together on the next title, which is supposed to be the continuation where the story has chronologically stopped, in the final of the first one.
Actually, I thought it was the perfect amount of waffling...
Damn, I kinda wish I could write game reviews, in the hopes that some day Alex (at Nintendo Life here) would read my words [heart eyes emoji]

It’s a great game! Lot of fun! Also.....Nintendo Life is at 400,000 subscribers...whoa.... 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤪🤪🤪✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻
Helloooo thereee lovelyyy peeople❤️
imagine watching this on a switch...

Cool story dude

It's adjustable in the options.
Diablo wannabe
Looks empty
Awesome game.
Graphics are poor for this game
early
Good or Identical graphics ? these look awful compared to pc version. look at those awful awful textures.
