I quite enjoyed this one, Fury was the reason I was willing to try the Darksiders series in the first place. As to all the complaints of "the horse is dead", wow. Way to beat a dead horse. Also her love for her horse being the driving force for both her starting her journey in this game as well as when she joins with the other horsemen (Also, in case anyone missed it, her horse will come back because War effectively abused a cheat code for all of the Horsemen at the end of the first game , of which this is the second prequel to the bulk of that game). And, honestly, it was an interesting difference in gameplay. Rather than big open areas that you need your horse to manage getting anywhere, adventure is much more... adventure-y. Yeah. Anyway, I quite enjoyed it as much as the prior two games. Especially with the fun variety of elemental powers that Fury gets to use!

If you're a fan of Souls-like games, you should play this one Main Differences Between Darksiders III and Previous Games 1. Gameplay Style Darksiders I & II: More traditional hack-and-slash with light RPG elements. Open world with lots of loot and puzzles. Darksiders III: Leans more towards a "Souls-like" experience – slower, more deliberate combat, with dodging and timing being more important. 2. Combat Mechanics Darksiders I & II: Combo-heavy combat, with multiple weapons and flashy moves. Darksiders III: Simplified combat system focusing on dodges and counterattacks. Less weapon variety, but more emphasis on tactical fighting. 3. Character and Story Darksiders I: You play as War. Darksiders II: You play as Death. Darksiders III: You play as Fury, the third Horseman (or Horsewoman). Her personality is more aggressive and impatient compared to War and Death. 4. World Design Darksiders I & II: More open-world and exploratory, especially Darksiders II with its large maps and side quests. Darksiders III: Metroidvania-style world – interconnected areas that unlock with new abilities. More linear but interconnected, like Dark Souls. 5. Loot and RPG Elements Darksiders II: Heavy on loot, gear upgrades, and skill trees. Darksiders III: Minimal loot. Focus is on upgrading a few core weapons and abilities. More streamlined. 6.Checkpoint and Save System Darksiders I & II: Manual save points or frequent autosaves. Darksiders III: Uses Souls-like checkpoints (Serpent Holes) where you respawn after death, and enemies reset. 7. Puzzle Design Darksiders I & II: Focused more on Zelda-style dungeons, full of environmental puzzles. Darksiders III: Less puzzle-heavy. Puzzles exist but are simpler and fewer, with more focus on platforming and combat. 8. Mount Darksiders I & II : gave players an epic feeling of being a Horseman, thanks in part to their powerful mounts. Darksiders III : Fury doesn’t have a horse, which disappointed many fans, especially since she is also one of the Four Horsemen. 9.Tone and Atmosphere Darksiders III: Darker and more mature tone, with a stronger emphasis on atmosphere and mystery. Earlier games were more comic book-like and colorful.

I understand how most people consider DS3 to be the weakest in the series -and I agree-, however it is by no means a bad game. As a Darksiders fan, I can say that the third instalment is a fun experience and people should definitely play it if they like this universe. •No bugs or performance issues; •Fury is a charismatic protagonist that you'll grow attached to; •Gameplay and combat can be a bit lacking, but it's satisfying all the same; •This game is hard. You will die a lot and that can be frustrating.

I played through 1, 2, and the Genesis one and this is probably the least fun of them all. I would recommend playing it to get closure on the four horsemen saga. It is fun, don't get me wrong, it is just that the game mechanic that the play style centers on is dodging. When I am playing I feel like it is very punishing if I do not dodge every single attack coming at me. I am 45 and my reflexes are not what they used to be. Anyway, pick it up when it is on sale for under $5 and have fun with it.

it's a fine game although i dont like the souls like gameplay, the previous games in the franchise are amazing but this one strayed too far from its original formula
