GaminGuardian - Alberto Morales Palencia - Spanishĭarksiders III is a breath of fresh air in the Darksiders franchise. Fury might not have the charisma of the previous knigtht, War and Death, but overall the adventure boasts a very good pace, alternating discreetly challenging fights and satisfying puzzles.

The Games Machine - Danilo Dellafrana - Italianĭarksiders III is a nice game, as well as a perfect sequel to a series that seemed lost in the maelstrom generated by THQ's bankruptcy. The stellar game world, intriguing story, and slick gameplay make it one worth checking out even if you're not a fan of the series. The personal journey of Fury against the Seven Deadly Sins is simply amazing, and everything is set towards the future for Strife to come and end this awesome epic.Īll in all, Darksiders 3 is a stunning return to a franchise that we'd love to see more of. Darksiders III, even with all the fear and skepticism behind the game, has managed to become a superb hack ‘n' slash. Once again, the Horsemen offer us a masterpiece. There are a few qualms here and there, like its technical issues, and at the end of the day I wish it offered more enemy variety, but even when considering those problems, the game is a blast.ĭarksiders III is a stunning achievement, bringing the once-dead series back to life with aplomb. Darksiders III is a pale, tiny, twisted shadow of the series. One of the most backwards sequels I've ever seen. Instead, it exists as an earnest reminder of how games played eight years ago, and that’s enough for me.ĭarksiders is my thing I adore it. It never does anything spectacular, nor does it offer many new ideas. Often, it fully gets away with not being the beneficiary of big, fat THQbucks, as its predecessors enjoyed, but sometimes its (presumably) slightly more humble THQ Nordic budget is more apparent.ĭarksiders 3 is a nostalgic trip, reminding me of games I loved when I was younger.

It’s a slight affair all-told, the character/weapon upgrade system drably functional, much of the combat and environments routine, the plot generously described as forgettable. Of course, there are those technical issues that they need to shore up.ĭarksiders' schlocky action makes a welcome return, though it's not enough to shake the feeling you've played this before - and better. At times, it does have freakishly good combat, and at times, it is actually interesting to explore, and at times, there's a puzzle or two that were at least slightly fun. I think for many, the situation is gonna split down the middle: those who loved the intricate design of the past games dungeons and locations, and those who wanted a more open environment. If you're a fan of Darksiders games, make no mistake there's fanservice here, there's tons of it, and some tried and trued Darksiders action, but as a fan, you might also notice the change in the game design mixed with the occasional lackluster level design as well, which honestly, especially after recently playing the remastered editions, leaves a bit to be desired. After both THQ and subsequently Vigil Games went defunct, key members of Vigil went on to found Gunfire Games and developed Darksiders III, under THQ Nordicĭespite the issues with the combat, I would say, for me, this is a 'Wait for a sale' maybe for 50% off, and many are probably gonna say wait for a deep, deep sale. The first two Darksiders games were developed by Vigil Games under then-publisher THQ.
