Hi, my name is Nik and today i am reviewing:
Darksiders is a action-adventure similar to God of War and Devil May Cry.
You play as War, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. War was tricked in to braking the law, of the Charred Council and for that his powers are taken away. So now he is seeking revenge.
But the Council don't let you go free, they send The Watcher with you. He is to help you, if need be and to insure your loyalty to the Council.
When i first started playing Darksiders, i was not impressed. The enemies where weak, the combos where really easy to do and it was generally boring. But after the first hour, or so, when i got new combos, new weapons, when the enemies got stronger, i really started to enjoy it.
No matter what you do the gameplay is very fluid, your combos link nicely together, with no lag, or any other problems.
Graphicly the game is beautiful, with interesting enemy models and good environment design.
The PC port is fairly good and the game is equally enjoyable on keyboard + mouse and a controller.
But the game has some big problems. First too many puzzles and they are not good, it feels like they put them, just to make the game longer, but it gets very frustrating at times. And even worst are the water puzzles, because swimming is very, very boring.
To top it all of Darksiders is a very enjoyable action-adventure, with solid combat and a interesting story. But it doesn't know its strengths, so there are too many bad puzzles.
I hope you liked my review of Darksiders.
If you did, please, comment and share with your friends.
Have a nice day.
