Fucking hell, the way Airship Syndicate is looking with how they made Wayfinder makes me want them to handle Darksiders 4, and remake Darksiders 1,2,3. Maybe even make a Dragon Age like or Final Fantasy 7 remake like of gameplay for a future Battle Chasers ge would be nice.

My biggest problem with this game is exploration and quests. Dungeons are fun solving the first time you visit, but on revisits it's pain to go through them. Especially when you hunt for quest things like stones or pages or whatever trinkets you need to find. I had similar problem with first Darksiders, but there at least you can find treasure maps and closer to the end you can use legendary enchantment to easily find everything you missed. I really wish second game had something similar since NG+ carries on your progress and resets every side quest which means whatever reward you missed on first playthrough is missed permanently and on hardest difficulty for NG+ you need every single stat increase you can get. I guess I'm not a fan of RPG element as well. Loot system is nice, but this means you will not have any kind of memorable items to look for. Possessed weapons pretty much kills any satisfaction of getting unique weapons. With armor you will most likely try to get abyssal set and some talismans with resistances to cover all your needs. Leveling system is also makes you think you get stronger, but it's only applies to early game as enemies keep leveling with you, so you constantly need to upgrade gear and level you possessed weapons to make fights feasible. In terms of story, characters and combat I like everything. With this game Death is my favorite horse rider to play as. Combat mechanics are great and feels smooth to use. I really wish this game was refined a little more for a better experience.

Definitely a ton of zelda inspiration in the dungeons

I was too young when i played this for the first time i think i played maybe 6 hours total and gave it up but i picked up the deathinotive edition and im EXCITED but i have a question. How do i know when i have/will be entering a dungeon?

Who's here cos of ps5 upgrade? Bought this on ps4 ages ago, and never got around to playing it. Now with this free uograde, gives me a reason to dive in. Thanks for your take!

Like those kind of reviews. Reminds of reviews from small RUclipsrs from the late 2000s and early 2010s. I only played the first Darksiders (two times through) and had a blast. Never gave the second one a chance because the level design and dialogue wheels put me off. Now I got it on Switch 12 years later after its original release and appreciate it more than I did when it came out. What I liked about the first Darksiders is that the levels were connected to interactive corridors that either had arena fights or puzzles and platforming to proceed. In Darksiders 2 there is too much empty space that doesn't fit the gameplay at all but what I heard is that it becomes increasingly smaller and more linear after the first and second world.

Normally I don't hate on the effort of people to make constructive content, but I can't help but feel this review is not as good as it could be if more time was given to analysing and internalizing.

Game is great! Playing as Death was an awesome experience

I replayed this recently and wanted to make the abyssal armor work so I did a crit build and now my critical chance is 99% and critical damage is 300% if damage numbers are on it crashes my game because of the amount of damage I do

how does this guy use super mario and not zelda as a comparision😂

I think this game regardless of the given ratings was almost perfect !! I rate it 8.8

I would take a guess at the Death meets War fight for the "OMG that music" Michael Wincott is maybe best known for Top Dollar in The Crow.

yeah i have darksiders two just not deathinitive

Im playing it now on 360. I tried to play it several times over the years and my data would be corrupted. Im finally attempting again, im about 30% in and i love it so far. Definitely a toptier "b-list" game alomgside castlevania lords of shadow (my absolute favorite 360 game).

Darksiders 2 is a great game, if you haven't, you should play Darksiders 1, both are great games, I can't really remember which one I enjoyed more but Death in any media is like oxygen to me, I just need it. Never played the 3rd and 4th ones, but from what I heard, they weren't that great.

I am no my 5 play through right now love this game only game that brings back the want to play games right now

Loved the review! Must say tho, as an Assassin's Creed fan since 2007, thinking of someone only discovering Jesper Kyd so recently and not in AC2 sounds crazy lol

Love this series but ill have to say the favorites in order are DS2, DS3 then DS1, DS2 the pace is awesome then when you get to earth its total chaos . Im replaying it and yes there are some bugs that are annoying but luckily hasn't crashed yet during the Crucible, that would really suck if trying to do all 100 levels in one go and it crashes at 99. Wish they would make a 4th with Strife not that Genesis crap if i wanted to play Diablo i'd play Diablo but the ONLY thing i find weird about this series is Wicked K i feel he's just out of place and does not belong in Darksiders universe. This series is perfect regardless of some flaws, i suggest anyone who disagees then play 2014 Lords of the Fallen then come back to this series you'll know how good this is, LOTF 2014 was garbage in comparsion

Amazing game

Does anyone know of any other modern game that has a weapon system close to the possessed weapon system in this game?

Sorry i know this video is 3 years old but i just want to say i love you voice and voice acting i like you seem to be actually enjoying the game instead of constantly complaining its to slow or to much plot like other lets players you are both funny and soothing i hope you keep going x

If Im not wrong, the music could be from the Makers' realm

Don’t listen to this retard he knows nothing

Has this guy ever played Mario before? What would possibly make this game like Mario? Stfu

Super Mario game? This guy needs to stfu it’s like Zelda. It’s basically Zelda with upgrades and leveling up nothing about it is anything like Mario

happy to own 1&2. I love 2, but sometimes the puzzles did get frustrating (Only towards the end for me) but it is indeed a solid 8 for me. I prefer the first games inclusion of puzzles. I think it had a more fair amount.

Darksiders 1 is still peak for me. Darksiders 2 was great if slow. Darksiders 3 was fine but I'm not into the combat or respawning enemies.

Darksiders 2 is a forgotten masterpiece. The amount of epicness in this game is insane. The visual style, character and environment designs, voice acting, story, dialogues and that incredible soundtrack!! It has fantastic atmosphere, it constantly surprises and never looses its grip and it has so many absolutely epic moments. There is just no other game like it. And you play as Death! Its the only game where even such thing as opening a door is epic. Sure its not perfect, but I love this game so much.

I love this game to death!!! I have explored this so much over the years that I know every single location of all collectibles... No what I play I keep returning back to it

Yes, I can name the soundtracks you played. I do listen them from time to time though so its not like I did not heard them since 2012 =) Regarding game reception it was made during the era when plenty of very good games were made, and economy crisis was happening. Plenty of really good games lost money or barely break even back then. Video games take a lot of time and money to make, couple of years after 2012 there was a huge, HUGE drop in games quality. And publishers forced developers to add microtransactions and lootbox casinos everywhere. Not to mention that Darksiders 2 had a lot of issues so it was not like an absolute masterpiece. Combat had many issues. Dungeon crawling gets a bit too repetitive (1-st and especially 2nd worlds are too long). The way plot unfolds is more like "hero on a quest" kind of plot rather than more intensive story one which not everybody liked. And it was very different from Darksiders 1 (which is not the bad thing by its own but pushed many fans of the original game away). I guess you can say that we were spoiled by the "golden age" of video games that was late 2000-th - early 2010th.

Don't forget how everything is a beautiful open world with amazing places

This is one of the best games ever made

it's the guardian ost XD

12:50 The Guardian . Another amazing one is Corruption ,especially the second part you hear outside the Tree of Life .

Just finished, it was much fun

Thanks for letting me know, I'll give it a try

Just as a note, Darksiders 2's metascore is actually way higher than 72. 72 is the score of the latest "remake", which is criticised for not fixing any bugs and making some things worse. Darksiders 2 is an amazing game and it is one of my favourites. I keep saying in my friend groups every time I have the chance, but the new god of war series have so much inspiration from this game which no one admits.

My favorite part of the game was when you got to lvl 18 or something, a vendor would sell a weapon with health on damage perk which you can only once and put it onto a possessed weapon.

Bro u forgot the possessed wepon glich that all fans love The music - the Guardian in forge lands In a way death is the cause for corruption having a champion

If it's brown flush it down

OK seriously, why every review of this game skips the additional campaigns?

Ahahaha never mentioned soul arbiter s maze

You are totally correct with the "youtube criticism". Nice to watch this review.

I'm still playing Darksiders 2 as of today. I wish that they could do a remake of the game ( or at least a remaster ) . I love everything : the characters, the artistic direction, the interconnected open world, the gameplay. Plus at 9:25, do that golden environnement ( Lostlight ) reminds you of something ? For sure, in that unknown game dropped in 2022, there's that location called Leyndell, very similar.

I love the crucible, but I also usually does it after finishing the story

Lemme guess the music you were talking about. The Guardian Boss fight?

Dark Siders two was very good, but the game is empty, and when you are trying to sell a game to a billion people it cant be empty

The bugs ruin the game selling it

Favorite game of all time. Been telling my friends since it came out, and nobody cared :[

Darksiders 2 is actually on the list of highest budget games with a budget of 50 million dollars. Now, that includes marketing, but it's still on the list.
