Darksiders is the very definition of rock-solid. It's derivative, nothing it does is particularly memorable - but what it does, it does with flying colours, and with a consistency throughout that many higher-class games cannot match. Meat-and-potatoes gaming at its absolute best. Now I only hope the Steam version is gonna be free from all the performance issues and bugs that messed up DS II: Deathinitive Edition.
" - but what it does, it does with flying colours," Yeah, sucks.
Thats why imo these remasters are pure trash, like wheres the new installments? No amount of remasters will ever fill that hole. The game is great, why charge console all over again vs free on pc liikely make a new game, re-layout the maps, add more mobs ffs "DO something" - heck even flip horizontal screen radically changes the feel of a game.
My point - they cba making decent gsmes anymore so they lazily remaster old games that had some 'meat' and waste valuable dev-time rather than a tiny bit of effort to change and improve it.
TAPETRVETVBE I got the Warmastered edition for free since I already owned the original one.
TAPETRVETVBE I run the game at a solid 60 at max settings with v-sync, but for some reason there's occasional drops to around 10 fps at completely random intervals. Doesn't ruin the experience though.
I like War's voice, it's like he is perpetually holding it in and can never find a bathroom.
the same guy voiced illidan and yasuo ^^ i love the voice XD sounds soo epic XD but imo fits those to alittle bit better :P
Gaara
what is difference between warmastered and the other versions?
.::Let's Play::. Better graphics and better fps
i love how gruff his voice comes across, not to mention he is a finominal voice actor. he's got his hands in so many games. that says something about him.
Who else is here because they're debating about 2 bucks on PS4? lmao
Balta Bueno same
Dude same lol
Meee meee wonderful meee
Balta Bueno lmao. Same
Me.
Your reviews are fucking fantastic. Much better than IGN/Gamespot
IGN is pure Emotional BS pared with Entertainment Tonight style of reporting. Man I miss GameTrailers even though they were sell-outs to some some big names but they still had character compared to IGN.
Sharp 07 Very true.
i love how he actually puts everything in it's category. and not just well you know since the graphics suck, we are going to stop the review at that. that is pretty much every reviewer out there, like *cough* ign *cough*. but he actually talks about combat and sound and graphics separately like their own entity.
like how ig graphics are not cutting edge. other portions of the game can make up for it, good story great controls, awesome sound.
like the chilling soundtrack from darksiders 2. when going up the elevator to fight the crow father, was like omfg that's chilling and yet very sweet.
he has one problem though imo, talks wayyy to fast
Who's here for Epic making it free?
Me
You are hands down my favorite reviewer. I mean you approach every game with the respect it deserves. I wish you the best because you're the kind of person the industry needs. #Respect
thanks
Weird how they remastered the second game first
ya agreed
Second game was more of a downgrade than a remaster (at least on PC).
That is odd.
This is the only one I played but... YES I LOVE IT!
Darksiders 2 was only a few years old at the time as well. It's the better game from what I've heard, maybe that's why?
ACG í
Can't wait to play through this again. I absolutely love both Darksiders games and I really hope we eventually get another in the series.
enjoy
CReaper210 agree. I loved this game so fucking much
. DS2 is also a masterpiece cant wait to buy them
CReaper210 the game is beyond epic. one of those games that are just solid in every area gameplay, graphics, level desgn, fun factor. I hope somehow a 3rd one is made also.
FanGamesOnline.com hope no more they just announced darksiders 3 and we'll play as fury can't wait
bet you're having a good day lol
now this is what I want from a reviewer and a RUclipsr. Professional, interesting and well made. Good on you.
thanks
This game was one of the few games that reminded me of the good old days of Soul Reaver which i loved.
It's actually free on PC for people who already own the original game.
yep, just saw it pop up in my steam library. just like the remaster of titan quest or the director's cut of DE:HR if you had all DLC
getting for free what console players have to pay for is one of the reasons why they call it "PC master race"
I just noticed that. Good look.
i got it for like 4 dollars
your reviews are amazing and soothing
thanks
His voice is chill and uplifting.
Darksiders is basically just a really metal Zelda game.
Remaster is only $20?? Wow, that's a happy surprise.
Just bought the whole bundle for £9 ha
If only square learned from this with ffxii zodiac age $50 for that :/
I bought it for 2 $ on G2A
is this 100% same game as the first like same missions and all?
Firdavs Masaidov obviously
Darksiders is a AAA Title. A Great game that can be challenging, i'd say the normal difficulty is the easy here but maybe its just me. You play as WAR, one of the 4 horsemen of the Apocalypse.
The Art and graphics are great, especially if you like gears of war. You can chain combos on your enemies with moves that you buy with the souls you collect. Think of this game as a Gothic Zelda game (no joke) : you get items and equipment that help you get to new places and dungeons and advance the story.
I highly recommend this game even in 2016
On PC the original edition goes up to 1920*1080 and you'll get 60 fps since the game is 6 years old but the art direction helps keeping it from looking old.
I hear it also works only with a geniune xbox360 (maybe xboxone) controller so do some digging to see if it will work with your controller.
Even on console the game is great, if you have a ps3 or a xbox360 go buy it if you never played it, it's badass and must be dirt cheap now.
It takes a lot of ideas from AAA games, but it definitely isn't one. It doesn't have anywhere near the polish of a Zelda or God of War.
It's more of a AA game, THQ baby!
Enneagram 4w5 stfu holy fuck
"Nothing is over the top."
*War turns into a flaming demon
PC version still has unpatched performance issues. I get microstutter and fps dips even with a 8700K and a GTX 1080. The game sometimes doesn't recognize my Xbox one and Xbox 360 controller. Other than that, the game is very solid.
More gamers need to give this series a chance darksiders 2 is one of the best under rated games of last gen
DARKSIDERS IS NOT UNDERRATED, IT’S AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Dilwale cricket, I couldn’t agree more.
Omni Watch I am getting a feeling that you have no idea what "underrated" means based on your response.

Always did love Darksiders , I think it lost a little something with the open world in 2 but I still liked it.
28OntheRise it made the collectibles very tedious to get since they don't give you anyway to check what you have and what you're missing from the areas you visit in the second game
At this point I just want a debut CGI trailer for Darksiders 3. I'm hoping for PSX, or VGA 2016.
blackmanwithcomputer Just released a trailer for Darksiders 3
Just released a trailer for Darksiders 3
This game is a love letter to zelda of the golden age on N64 and soul reaver. And totally pulls it off in every way it can. I loved this game on ps3 and love it as much on ps4,its not worlds different but its smoother and smoother on ps4 and I've never hit any dips in fps myself.
LOL!!!! Duuude! I love your reviews, not only are they extremely informative, but they also openly display your obvious commitment and very hard work to bring us all this meticulous info; watching your vids is really as entertaining as actually playing the games! Your friggin HILARIOUS!!! Thank you for doing this so well. I wish some game developers would take as much personal interest and devotion when designing games; On that note, I felt that the team who designed the Darksiders games really did just that- Darksiders I & II felt to me (Old PS3 versions)- in spite of obvious mechanical issues that they really cared about the characters, the story and the epic feel of the game. Somebody LOVED those old school "Dungeon Crawlers" and brought them to VIVID life in the Darksiders games... I TRULY hope a 3rd is coming.
thanks phil
props for covering this under-the-radar remaster job such detail. I'll have to pick this up as I b fever finish the original.
you bet
$20 right now for the "Darksiders Fury Collection" (both Darksiders 1 and 2 together). In celebration of their announcement of Darksiders 3! Get it while the sale lasts!
Your reviews are hands down the best I've seen on RUclips. Thank you for all the hard work you put into them - it really shows.
thanks
Such an underrated series. Watching this video gave me the shills... so much nostalgia. Loved this game
i played the original and remember having a great time. the game is solid
agreed
This was an awesome review. The 12 minutes flew by and I loved the extensive detail. It was well organized, funny, smart, and informative. I can't wait to check out more of your content, great work.
hey great video as always.Can't help but wonder you never did a review for modern warfare remastered.Why?
have to play it to review it
Looks like they put more detail in this over part 2 remaster?
Haljordan4life kinda how in the Nathan Drake collection, the original Uncharted is completely rebuilt while 2 and 3 are barely changed.
Darksiders is a great game, I hope this is a sign they're making a third one, I was devastated when THQ went under because I loved the franchise. I don't think the games are perfect, but the combat and puzzle gameplay is amazing, need to work on pacing and story a bit though.
Atleast this is a sign that they still care about the franchise. So hopefully this will sell enough so they can make Darksiders 3
The game is perfect the way it is.Darksiders is a masterpiece
leandromafe Wish granted. DS3 announced for 2018
lol, I know. I'm ecstatic!! Can't wait to play it. Just hope they don't rush it out the gate like andromeda
First time ever watching your reviews. I've always stuck with the basic IGN, GT Trailers reviews but I was really impressed with the amount of detail you provided on this review. You got my subscription just on the fact that you played the game all the way through for the review which is extremely rare. Is that a standard for you?
thanks sir. And yes this is the standard but always trying to get better
Literally the ONLY place I come for reviews old and new. Debating this for a very long time and need a filler game right now and it’s £8.99. Sold and downloading now. Nice
I just beat the game the other day on Xbox Game Pass and the puzzles were a TRUE pain in the ass, yet the end battle and the end scenes were well worth it. I'm now doing Darksiders 2 and while it looks good, I'm not really happy with the battle system as you can't block (unless it comes later in the game because I'm not that far in yet.)
Darksiders 1 and 2 bundle is on sale for 20 dollars on ps4, I instantly snagged em! I've never had the chance to play Darksiders 1 and I only played a little bit of 2. I didn't realize it had 4k support on ps4 pro, so that's a plus.
Great game, RIP THQ
they are back yooo! :D or nordic games changed the name to thq nordic or something similare ^^
Does that also mean there is hope for a Darksiders 3? That would be sweet
Trashware yes i hope so, my First thought was That The reason they remastered darksiders 1 was to give people The possibility to play both games before they release The third 😃😃😃
keerthan kumar THQ Nordic said that they have like 20 games to make, so, with some luck, Darksiders 3 is one of them.
Bed Intruder Yeh i realy hope Soo 😃😃
DS1 was (and is still) in my top 5 favorite games of ALL time. So when DS2 was announced I was giddy as can be. Then I found out you play as Death not War....Sad....Then I played the game and realized all of the charm from the first game had been lost in the second game. So I was very sad all in all. thank goodness I get to relive one of my favorite games with beautiful graphics! Please go buy the game everyone!
Heejin Cider How was the charm lost?
dude. your reviews are a breath of fresh air. you are critical yet fair. and you see the veiws of first time players and long time fans, keep up the amazing work! also the side jokes on the voice actors was perfect. Lol metal gear series would love you to poke fun at them while giving them complements hahahaha.
"it's vital for a game to be played all the way through for it to be reviewed" fucking A man that's why you're the goat.
I got it for 3.99dls and the Darksiders 2 for 5.99dls on play store a few weeks ago. I will started to play it today =)
5:40 You forgot to mention that there are 2 distinct blade sounds, so you can know your timing for delayed combos I think that good attention
As always a very informed and great review. Very underated series. Loved these games. Hope we get a third soon
thanks
Jamie Baxter wouldn't famine just be a sick guy coughing all over the place?
Maaan I really don't need more games but this is only 16 on amazon.
Jonathan Connor That's how they get ya!
i guess i gotta buy it, it's 2 bucks on steam
Jonathan Connor got it from game stop preowned with elite pro membership for $15.19
Jonathan Connor ha! 1.99 on sale PS
Jonathan Connor right now you can get both remastered games on PS4 for just over $16
I appreciate this review. I feel Darksiders never really got the recognition it deserved and this remastered edition, done well, could help the series down the road.
thanks
Thanks for the review, sounds like a decent remaster :)
you bet
just got the darksiders franchise for £4.50 on steam its got darksiders, darksiders warmasterd edition and darksiders 2 with the soundtrack. its on sale till 27-08-18
And it'll probably sell "meh" and bye, bye Horsemen. Hate unfinished stories.
Isendure Same
Isendure They are still working on Darksiders 3.
+Battle Royale
Who is? The studio that made the first two got closed down.
Nordic games bought the IP and they hired a lot of former Vigil employees.
Chen Xie
Thanks for the info.
Awesome! Can't wait to pick this up! The Darksiders franchise along with Bayonetta and Vanquish were the cream of the crop when it came to action games last generation. So the opportunity to play this in a remaster for PS4 will be a welcome edition to my game library. Now if we could just get Darksiders 3!!! Sigh. Lol. Another awesome review as always man. Keep it up! This has become me and my friends go to channel for reviews!!
thanks sir!
darksiders 1 was my fav action game on the old gen, definitely gonna get this for my ps4 pro
I Love this series, but I hate that whenever a company remasters a game on XB1 they don't allow the last gen original become backwards compatible, forcing us to buy it a second time or rely on aging hardware. (Gears of War 1/ultimate edition excluded)
I know now what was bothering me the entire time I was watching the video. War and Illidan of warcraft share the same voice actor. It's weird to me to have the voice of the tall, slender demon elf in this bulky mass of iron.
Really well-done review none the less.
ah yes that is true
I am a huge Fanboy of this and the second game. They have always been at the tops of list, even though I am mainly an FPS and Racing game player. This has got to be one of the most thought out and well done reviews I have ever seen. Never seeing one of your reviews before I can only hope they are as well done.
I got the notification that I got this for free on pc since I already had it on Steam. What's interesting is that this is a new, separate game download rather than a game update.
The best review page on RUclips handsdown.
I just cant stand how the lock on system works but man if it weren't for that, it would masterpiecial! Yeah I made that word up.
I'm so happy that I finally got the Darksiders collection pack, so worth the wait
This review just made me a Subscriber. Thanks for the kick Ass Review!
thanks Jason
Bro you don't review Civ 6?
Just wanted to update PS4 owners. There was just a patch earlier today... so hopefully they fixed the PS4 cutscene sync issues (people are having voice over sync issues in the cutscenes on PS4) and the frame rate issues Karak mentioned. If I try it soon I will update this post to let you guys know if it fixed the issues or not... if anyone else tried first please reply and let us know.
EDIT: I can confirm now that they did indeed fix the sync issue!!
Yeah, this one really popped out the womb unexpectedly. I had no idea it was in the works. I looked in my library and saw it there. I guess it was given to me free because I own the original. Thanks Nordic!
agreed
Good in depth video bro, better than a lot of the mainstream reviews (ign, gamespot etc)
Damn it, I wish Darksiders 2 didn't crash so often on my ps4.
might give this a try, good review
Thank you I was looking all over for a review of this and look a reviewer who I love reviewing it.
One of my favorite games ever. Easily in my top 5 if not 3. Day one buy
Luving your reviews. Did u ever find out if the PS4 version had the same FPS issues?
Now $1.99 until 5/22/18 on PS4
i played the original. Didn't realize they improved it that much with the Warmastered edition. Will play again.
After a couple hours of gameplay i felt like i was playing Zelda mixed with God Of War... and I love it.
Played it a second time after a while on hardest mode. It was great! I hope they are going to make a whole serie aout of these, cause Darksiders 2 was also very cool to play and much different than the first one. (Besides there are a view more apocalyptic riders then War and Death, and i really want to play as those too.)
Ya me to
I'm just really glad the remasters were enough to warrant DarkSiders 3. Lets hope it's good and not a sad attempt to get some cash from a niche market.
I just found your channel. Keep up the great work. Think you can add a co-op category to your reviews?
If a game has coop it just ends up in gameplay
I enjoyed the first 2 Darksiders. I keep hoping someone will pick up the license now that THQ is history.
Adrian Channelle You do realise that Nordic Games has the licence?How else would the remastered version show up if no one had the licence
What do you mean you enjoyed the first 2 Darksiders?, there are only 2 games, series is dead unfortunately.
Is it just me, but darksiders 3 (my first playing it now) has that Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver vibe. Is this series comparable to that franchise?
Another fantastic video! Thanks! Picking up my game today! 😍
thanks
It's not Darksiders, it's Puzzlesiders with tons of filler unneeded battles and unfair bosses, due to the fucking fact that nobody has the audacity to explain what the hell are you supposed to do. This game starts as a great adventure, turning into a grind and ultimately a chore to play.
So glad this is coming out on Switch too.
Great review! Love this game (favorite of all time!!).
I listened to it all this time Karak :D
lol
people tells me to wait for the wii u version, darksiders 2 on wiiu was really different for me, the 2nd screen really did make a difference on the game experience (mostly because the map)
It would be good if this game was a bit like Diablo3, where you can play with other players, and run dungeons for better gear, etc. What I loved about this game is the look of the hero, weapons, and skills' animations.
ya for sure
I got the whole franchise for $5 on steam
BULL FUCKINGGGG SHIT
Great video but do you know if the devs have mentioned any bug fixes? Mainly because I recently tried to replay the original on PC and got screwed by a game breaking bug in the first dungeon.
no its not released yet
Wow thanks for the quick response.
I just noticed that this was on my steam library for free.
Weird as most vid games companies are seriously cynical nowadays. Like a nod back to the old days :D
I bought the game on PS3 and PC. Guess I have to get it for PS4. All for a hope that DS3 happens. Excellent review. I always Darksiders is the like the true Zelda sequel we wanted :)
I really like the darksiders games, really want a third one. Great review.
me to and thanks
I believe the Darksiders franchise was gobbled up by Nordic Games after THQ went belly-up. Considering that NG already announced working on a new "Nexus" game, I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually got to work on a new Darksiders. So there's still hope...
Great review. Though my favorite voice work in this one is definitely Samael. Maybe it's just the dialogue but the guy who did it should be praised as I felt it was unique.
another great review...that joke about Prototype 2 was hilarious!!
and a bit sad
Karak, I'd like to thank you for adding an amazing, affordable Christmas present to my list!
you bet
underrated classic
Both of these games are just great. They're some of the best action games you can play and the downside of being on the last gen was that its great art style couldn't come out as well as it should have given the low resolution. Great to see both games have now been given the remaster treatment. Also kudos for the brilliant and aptly named titles of each game. Warmastered? Deathinitive? Genius.
Reminds me of how much I enjoyed this game. Extra points for not mentioning God of War like every other review when it first came out.
lol thanks
thank u so much for ALL early reviews. Coz of your reviews got many games! and never regret it. U doing amazing job!
you bet
NICE REVIEW got question , people that have game already on steam will they get upgred for free ?
Great review as always! Have a great Thanksgiving! (I'm thankful for your reviews :) )
I bought the collection in the last steam sale so I'm not buying it again but I have to say. On the pc there aren't many games like this. At 20$ it is a buy for sure.
And if you like it, theres a 2nd game allready remastered for about the same price.
Pros for me are : comic book like graphics and great design, Action combat and puzzles. Must buy if you like Prince of persia, God of war or Devil May Cry.
Darksiders is an ok game that gets better and better the longer you play it. Lovely art design, awesome combat mechanics, really cool exploration and puzzle sequences (though the tower at the end of the game, oh my god)
And cool hidden boss fight and really hard to find end-game armor.
i only had to watch this review to decide that iam subscribing.
keep up the good work.
thanks
GIVE US DARKSIDERS 3 ALREADY!
Well...
Maybe this is a sampler just like the DS2 one... Ok... After getting every all of them for every platform and 3 resin statues I'll happily add this one to the collection.
Love this universe and characters.
Gameplay might be a bit improveable.
I just want the story to be continued with a part 3,4 and well... Whatever comes after that :)
Naming the explicit platform on which you reviewed the game, would be greatly apreciated BTW.
lol
Sorry dude, i know my english is not the best hahaha, i hope you got what i meant... if not i apreciate your lol anyway.
No problem sir
Xbox one.
+RB Gamer
Yeap, that's what i thought...
I bought Darksiders 2 a few months back for around £3 and absolutely loved it. This actually looks even better. The move sets and weapons look off the scale!
Can't wait to get heavily involved in this ruckus...after I complete Arkham Knight, a game I swore I'd never buy on principal, but got seduced by the £5 price tag on CDKeys yesterday.
So many games to lose oneself in right now.
Great review as per always Karak.
enjoy
If you haven't played it already DmC (the latest one) is also really worth a look, especially if you like brawlers/complex combat
I finished on every level except the hardest one. Loved it.
having missed the game originally i'm gonna check this out thanks for the video
This game has the best Menu i ever seen in a video game. Extremely well designed.
