Run-through
Death as the name suggests is your main playable character, and he is a bad-ass mother fucker. His job is to deal with death all around him and he takes no shit from any of the games NPC's who constantly need his help. Darksiders 2 takes the player on multiple quests and tasks set by other main characters who are lazy or incompetent. Darksiders 2 has a rich and enchanting world to explore that comes with epic music unlike the first Darksiders.
Diablo, The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Tactics Ogre and more can all be name-dropped when talking about Darksiders II, which borrows heavily from them and others, but once again it’s all done in such a way that it never feels heavy-handed or obvious.
Death begins his journey on an epic crusade to erase the crime his brother, War, is being charged with: breaking the seals and unleashing the apocalypse on humanity. Death naturally has to reverse these crimes and prove his brother War innocent.
A Bonus of Darksiders 2 is the promise of Death's stead Despair, and yes your stead is available at a quick press of a button.
Difficulty
The game’s pacing is handled well and at a decent length, and I never once felt like my hand was being held. Turning the difficulty up to Apocalyptic and switching off Tutorial notes leaves the
^Inventory of Death
experience just that - a challenging and engaging foray into
a world of acrobatic plat-forming, challenging puzzles and visceral combat.
Main features:
Great new world to explore, Visceral Combat, Currency and Loot System is Simple and Delicious, The Voice of Michael Wincott as Death was a great choice, all this and a Deeply Rewarding Narrative!
Rating:
9.5/ 10 Carrots for RPG lovers!
