100% Achievement Review: A quick review based on my experience completing all the (available) achievements. [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45897386/] Feel free to follow my curator for more 100% reviews! (DLC REQUIRED FOR 100%) Title: Darksiders III Summary: Hack n slash adventure game Personal notes: The third in the Darksiders series, this time you play as Fury, the third horseman who is tasked with trying to hunt down the seven deadly sins. I quite enjoyed my experience with this game and think it is a solid addition to the Darksiders series. The world is beautiful as always and the story is pretty good. Graphics and combat* feel great and I think the Hollow mechanic was a really cool feature. One thing to keep in mind was that this was my first time playing this game compared to replaying the first two (Xbox and Pc). With this in mind, and I will try my best to not let nostalgia play a factor, I preferred the first two. Don't get me wrong I think this is a great game but It didn't grab me like the first two games did. Quite a few things were different, some good like the hollow mechanic I mentioned but some were bad. Like why do the first games have a map but this one doesn't? Not to mention the combat(*) when the game launched was all dark-souls esque before they released an updated mode that was more reminiscent of the original series. They also got rid of the Horse! I completely understand wanting to innovate, I just feel like they were trying to do too much and strayed a bit too far from the series roots that I personally loved growing up. Achievement wise this game is pretty similar to the other two. The hardest ones for me personally I listed below. They are mainly just grindy with the most challenging one being beat the game on Apocalyptic. All in all I think it is a really good game and I still enjoyed my time with it, It just fell a little short of my heightened expectations building off the previous games. If you have played the first two and enjoyed them I would recommend this one as well. Time it took to complete: 40hrs Most difficult achievement(s): - Death Incarnate (Complete the Game on APOCALYPTIC) - Proceed on your way to Armageddon (Complete the game on Armageddon (ng+) mode) - Keep it 100! (Reach level 100) Difficulty rating: ★★★★★★★☆☆☆ 7/10 Overall rating: ★★★★★★★☆☆☆ 7/10

Don't let the play time fool you. I played this game on my GOG Galaxy launcher for a very long time. My Review: Darksiders III gets a bad rep. But honestly, I think it's absolutely fantastic. Some people cry because it's a "souls-like" but the fact is that every single Darksiders game comes as a separate sub-genre. DS= Action/Adventure. DS2= Open World Looter. DS3= SoulsLIke. DSG= ARPG. But they are all hack n slash and they all are story driven. The gameplay is good, the combat is good, and honestly DS3 feels just as much like a Metroidvania as it does a soulslike. And it's very light on the "souls" inspiration. You can even choose "classic" setting for a more mainstream experience. Don't listen to the hate. Try it for yourself. It's absolutely worth the price. Tons of content. The voice acting can be cringe sometimes, but it's actually surprisingly good other times and even funny on occasion. I love the female Watcher too. Also, go to properties in your steam settings and type -dx12 into launch options to help with the optimization. Optimization in this game is it's main flaw, but mostly just loading in new areas. Generally it feels very smooth and runs at high frame rates with beautiful graphics.

I honestly don't think it's nearly as bad a game as people make it out to be. It's an OK Soulslike . Some of the boss fights are really good and i love that there are so many elemental modes. The DLC content really enhances the experience. I definitely think it's over-hated

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.
