War: *kills the destroyer* I'm the most bada$$ Fury: *captures the 7 sins* no, its obviously me Strife: *doing whatever strife does* you're both pronouncing my name wrong Death: *exists* Fanbase: it's death
22:00 After seeing this moment on my first playthrough, it made me realize that even though Death is..., and everyone immediately thinks that 'Dying = Pain" (and that's putting it lightly), But here, Once The guy asks Death to kill him, Death makes sure if he's 100% set on this, and after the guy tells him he is knowing he can't live on with guilt, Death gives him a swift, painless end. Death doesn't enjoy taking the lives of those who don't really deserve it or it's not yet time for them to go. It Humanizes him in a way
Hunter: Death as long as your here. Death: You wish to be taken now? Hunter: Yes please. Death: Very well. Now that's what you call looking Death in the eyes and finding peace! Death was so gracious and merciful.
I always appreciated how sincere Death was in that scene. Throughout the entire game, we see him absolutely slaughters everything and rightly so, but it's brutal to watch and partake in. But in this instance, he didn't argue, didn't plead his case, he respectfully turns round, accepted his duty and in one clean swing: instant death. No pain, no suffering, just peace. Death can be what causes you the most suffering, or what releases you from it.
Defeated an Archon of Heaven amped by one of the strongest Angelic weapons. Defeated Samael in single combat at the height of his power. Then destroyed the embodiment of Corruption itself. Yeah, Death is the GOAT.
The art style has honestly made it timeless. Compare it to other games from 2012. No comparison. It looks way better because it wasn't trying to emulate real life. This style of game could be made any year.
Yea it’s my favorite look I just wish they add a version of it for higher level play but it does make it more interesting playing the game at level 30 wearing 15 armor lol
2:25 you...... misjudge me...... COOLEST FUCKING LINE EVER!!!!! so subtly badass, not cheesy in your face kind of action hero one liner, just......the STRONGEST of quiet confidence
This was one of the best rpg/action games I played In a long time. Phenomenal voice acting, expansive gameplay, enchanting soundtrack and great story. I truly hope the final Darksiders game is on par with this one and that Death's voice actor returns.
Well to be fair DS3 is not a bad game it's just the fact that DS2 set the bar too high imo. And as much as I like War and Fury, Death is just way too awesome :)
True about death. Michael Wincott truly made death one of the best videogame characters I've ever experienced. As for DS3 and Fury, yes it does not compare to DS2. It was more like DS1, but it seemed rushed. The game seemed much shorter and it looked like it was meant to be more of a bridge between the games, other than it's own epic story. I liked Fury and all the characters, just wish they made it longer to flesh the characters out.
Have you ever played a game so good that it becomes a unit of comparison for every game you play afterwards? Darksiders 2 is that game for me! Everything about this game just screams fun! Puzzle platforming? Fun! Combat? Fun! Button mapping? FUN! Level Traversal so good that you forget there's a fast travel system? *FUN!!!* The only games to come close to it are the Transformers: War for/Fall of Cybertron games. Now on the other end of that spectrum, we have Dragon's Dogma. Now that's a story on it's own.
If it's as fun as fall of Cybertron, I might have to give it a try. The only other games I've found that fun are fallout new Vegas (Xbox 360 )and madness project Nexus (on steam ). Is this game for either of those two platforms?
Death cut that bell in half so hard that it was heated up from the raw kinetic force behind the slash. As in, visibly glowing with heat. Can someone explain how ungodly strong you’d have to be to *do that.*
Ah I remember when I beat the very first part of this game and thought that was the end… then turned up in the Underworld I think it was? Was so amazed at this game
That would be a remake. Because you can only improve the graphics much with a remaster. You would have to rebuild the game from the ground up to make it look the best in today's standards.
I gotta love just how much pure venom Death puts into his words towards Lilith. How guarded he is around her in comparison to others. Even when meeting strangers like Eidard, he's cautious but not completely on guard. With Lilith, that's a whole other story. His body language screams visibly uncomfortable and pissed at the same time. Especially when she touches him. Hell when Eidard barely touched him, the most Death did was practically scurry away from him. You can't tell me he didn't either, dude was quick to get out from under his hand. With Lilith, he clenches his fists the first time, then smacks her hand away the second time. But his body language does show how uncomfortable he actually is under that anger he's showing outwardly. He'd rather show fear around a stranger, than the woman who calls herself 'Mother'. If that isn't telling as hell I don't know what is. Aside from that moment that shows badassery and vulnerability, I loved watching Basileus get fucking wrecked. Just absolutely beat to shit. Deserved it for being a nuisance too. No wonder his King killed him. Can't say why he'd kill the other two beyond disobedience tho.
Darksiders 2 is also my favourite game, Death is my favourite Horsemen in the i can't forget this game and i will never forget it. Best Game ever that i've played in my life
Shame we rarely see these kind of stylized graphics these days, the way the textures are drawn makes the game ageless in my eyes. Like the WoW's revamped graphics or something like Allods but better. The recent League of Legends spinoff "Ruined King" also has this sort of appeal but I have yet to try it. The devs of this game also did the isometric spinoff prequel for this series.
I absolutely love darksiders 2 my all time favorite game I've beat it several times and I'm fixing to get it again and play it on my switch since I have one of those now
Man ur Scythe is very powerful i've been playing this game for 4-5 times but i had never get those powerful Scythe because i never start a new-continued game i.e play a new game with my weapons already powerful or a legendary Scythe
You know I never played the first game or the third and didn't get into this one straight away but I always loved how they went with that comic look, it's such a different idea than most games. Once I got into this one though I 100% it on apocalypse. Only issue I had with the game is that apocalypse is too easy for the hardest mode like way too easy. I felt like I was playing the game on easy on the hardest difficulty and that kind of ruined it as I enjoy the challenge and only play games on the hardest the first time. Comparing this to the recent god of war on the hardest and yeah god of war was harder but only for one thing the Valkyrie queen everything else was easy. It feels like now most games hardest difficulty is too easy. But yeah I actually enjoyed this game though, never did the dlc except the one with the ice dragon but good game.
Minus the near complete lack of empathy, this is how decided to be when I grew up: stupid buff, can do most things singlehandedly and can ride a horse. 2/3 so far
Death on a rocky piece of road: this is no place for a horse
Death on the back of a flying serpent: oh this is the perfect place for ride
Lol 😂
Giant serpents ain't got stones that can damage a horses hoof.

great to see people who still appreciate darksiders 2
Always will
I too played that game around 2021.
Always
Death is one of my favorite characters of all time
First time i played it was in 2013/14 and i came back to it like couple days ago and i couldn't be happier with my choice
Enemies: Constantly spewing empty threats
Death: I AM DEATH! I AM INEVITABLE!
Reminds me of a Line in a story; "I AM death, hence im absolute."
"YOU WILL DIE HERE!"
**the dryest of chuckles** "We both know that isn't true."
22:00
After seeing this moment on my first playthrough, it made me realize that even though Death is..., and everyone immediately thinks that 'Dying = Pain" (and that's putting it lightly),

All without his "rightful power" as some characters put it
I don’t care how old this game was, Darksiders 2 is one of my favorite video games of all time.
Mine too
Yes
Same opinion

@@TheStraightestWhitest Dishonored
I like how you use death's comic armor
I prefer the abyssal over anything, war looked so f*cking cool in that armor in darksiders 1
How can you get it ?
Yea it’s my favorite look I just wish they add a version of it for higher level play but it does make it more interesting playing the game at level 30 wearing 15 armor lol
Where you got the armour?
I still trying to collect it

COOLEST FUCKING LINE EVER!!!!!

"What is you function"
"I am Death"

Yes I hope so as well
i wanna hear “I NEED MORE WRATH”
Death's voice actor is a must.
@@RenegadeVile YES! Would not be the same without Michael wincott
@@cyklonus1It was Sam Witwer in 3.
"If its madness then who better to show me the way?"
One thing I like the most is death's sarcasm 😂. Being a death bringer but can spit out jokes.
Death was by far the BEST horseman and character in the entire series. I had such high hopes for fury but she and her game in general was a let down.
Well to be fair DS3 is not a bad game it's just the fact that DS2 set the bar too high imo. And as much as I like War and Fury, Death is just way too awesome :)

I am looking forward for strife...he is basically the cayde-6/deadpool of the darksiders universe
@@cyklonus1 Bruh you know na the budget was small
"Death being badass"
**Proceeds to put basically the entire game, or actually the entire franchise**
A horseman does not simply *ring* a bell
Have you ever played a game so good that it becomes a unit of comparison for every game you play afterwards? Darksiders 2 is that game for me! Everything about this game just screams fun!
Puzzle platforming? Fun!

Tbf the fast travel was pointless as the maps were that small anyway.

It's an EPIC Game. One of the best that was ever created
This game is pure epicness. The soundtrack and how death was portrayed along with the combat was and still is one of the best games I ever saw.
Death cut that bell in half so hard that it was heated up from the raw kinetic force behind the slash.
As in, visibly glowing with heat.
Can someone explain how ungodly strong you’d have to be to *do that.*
And how that wasn’t even Death at his Strongest
For a person who is supposed to be very sad and melancholy he has a surprising amount of rage
i truly love death and war
this is scary out of context

Sundowner in a nutshel

One of the best game i played in my life
Death is such a great character
Ironically Death was the only Horsemen to have his horse from the beginning of his game all the way to its end
20:14 I mean…….FUCK DEATH IS BY FAAAR THE BEST PROTAGONIST EVER IN ANYTHING dear god he knows all his enemies threats are empty……so badass
A whole 30 minutes of my favorite horsemen thanks
Im still in love with Death looks ..he looks so good
Love how genuine these clips are. The first is a dead ringer
He is always a badass, even when he saves things on his way he has absolutely no time for.
Ah I remember when I beat the very first part of this game and thought that was the end… then turned up in the Underworld I think it was? Was so amazed at this game
He will always be my favorite horseman of the four this guy is just bads on every level
One of the best damn games I ever played
Absolutely
Imagine a Remastered with todays Graphics…
How sick would this have been?
That would be a remake. Because you can only improve the graphics much with a remaster. You would have to rebuild the game from the ground up to make it look the best in today's standards.
I think the remaster looks great today. Graphics are temporary. Art direction is forever.
Super under-appreciated game. One of my favorites of all time.
The king of the dead sounds like megatron lol
Same VA
One of them, at least.
one of the underrated game of all time.
i think for this compilation we just need a whole gameplay walkthrough
Im a simple man...I see Death or darksiders 2 and I click.
I gotta love just how much pure venom Death puts into his words towards Lilith. How guarded he is around her in comparison to others. Even when meeting strangers like Eidard, he's cautious but not completely on guard. With Lilith, that's a whole other story. His body language screams visibly uncomfortable and pissed at the same time. Especially when she touches him.
Hell when Eidard barely touched him, the most Death did was practically scurry away from him. You can't tell me he didn't either, dude was quick to get out from under his hand. With Lilith, he clenches his fists the first time, then smacks her hand away the second time. But his body language does show how uncomfortable he actually is under that anger he's showing outwardly. He'd rather show fear around a stranger, than the woman who calls herself 'Mother'. If that isn't telling as hell I don't know what is.
Aside from that moment that shows badassery and vulnerability, I loved watching Basileus get fucking wrecked. Just absolutely beat to shit. Deserved it for being a nuisance too. No wonder his King killed him. Can't say why he'd kill the other two beyond disobedience tho.
i will pay to remake this game.

There is a remake on ps4 unless you mean a brand new one with ps5 graphics

That it is
War and Death are so sick. Fury annoyed me until later in the game when she chilled the fuck out a bit. Can't wait to see Strife.
@@jcmee91 right there with you the new darksiders going to be boss
And this is guy who played main antagonist for the 1994 movie the Crow.
Michael Wincott
To this day he still looks badass
I honestly believe Death is the strongest horsemen
THIS type of gameplay is how I wish the Battle Chasers game would have been. I can't wait for Darksiders 4.
All that is left is for strife to have is own game
We may have to settle with Genesis for his game
The upside down wings of demons show that they are truly the opposites of angels
Could they fly with it?

@@Son.D.Lollipop i have a question for you
@@richardch.4356 what’s that
now going off the graphic novel of darksiders and the history would you believe that death can kill samael on his own !?

I absolutely love darksiders 2 my all time favorite game I've beat it several times and I'm fixing to get it again and play it on my switch since I have one of those now
This is by far my favourite game of all time. 🤍
I hope they can get Michael to come back to play Death in DS 4.
No man,nay no nephililm has given less shits or delivered more badass lines and scenes then DEATH it’s self with a mission
this video could be a full game video, always badass
One of the most underrated game
Death being a badass while being locked in 3fps:
This was such a great game. All 3 are amazing, but death is just the coolest 😎
I really hope the next game is better than the last 2.
Well
Um…
That's what you expect from the leader of the Horsemen.
The names of the four horses that the horsemen ride.
War & Ruin
Death & Despair
Fury & Rampage
One brings another, but what about Strife?
Maybe conquest
Strife & Mayhem
@@marcianoscott6218wasn’t it mayhem?
