Do you really like Darksiders 1&2? If you do then play this one, BUT you will probably not like it nearly as much. I was hesitant to play this game due to the mixed reception at launch, but i recently got back into the series and wanted to give it a go. The first few hours are not great. Its hard to tell if the game is going to be good and you kinda just have to push through until you get your second or third set of weapons (Hollows) for the game to start picking up. All the while you are going to be getting punched in the balls by the DarkSouls style combat. Its simply not that fun and doesnt meld well with the hack and slash style combat. Only at the very end of the game did I feel like the balance between Souls and Hack and Slash met at an enjoyable level, but even then it was probably still a hinderance. The puzzles are also not great. They arent terrible by any means, just uninspired for the most part. One puzzle was very good and i really enjoyed solving it, and as i entered the new path that opened in front of me... an enemy that was placed around a 90 degree corner double hit me with a sword throw and killed me outright. Couldnt even dodge since there are no invincibility frames on being hit. Enemies do too much damage, theres often too many enemies at one time and you have too few heals for it to be an enjoyable combat flow. The hack and slash combat however is quite good and late game very good. I found the character development for Fury to be the highlight of the game surprisingly. The late game backtracking and exploration was also surprisingly fun. This game could have been so much better

Darksiders 3 Is Better Than You Think I went into Darksiders III with low expectations because I didn’t enjoy Darksiders II… and came out genuinely surprised. This game is a souls-lite gem. If you’re someone who enjoys Souls combat but doesn’t want to deal with overwhelming systems or massive open-world chaos, this hits a really sweet spot. It’s focused, challenging, and respects your time. A lot of negative reviews come from older fans expecting Darksiders II again. They saw a souls-like shift and started complaining. To them, I’ll just say it straight, skill issue. The map design is where the game really hooked me. It’s not open-world, but an interconnected web of areas that loop back into each other in a really satisfying way. I usually don’t like metroidvania-style backtracking, but here it felt purposeful. Every time I unlocked a new Hollow power, I immediately remembered places I couldn’t reach before and actually wanted to go back. That curiosity kept pulling me forward. Exploration is backed by smart puzzle design. Each area has multiple puzzles that make you stop and think, and they never feel random. The mechanics are clean, and traversal stays simple even when the world itself is complex. The Hollow abilities (Flame, Storm, etc.) are a highlight. Each one changes both combat and movement in meaningful ways. Combat is slower and more deliberate compared to previous Darksiders games, but that’s exactly why it works. It rewards patience and awareness instead of button mashing. Now for the one thing that really annoyed me: Those Prince of Persia-style swing sections. The same button is used for attacking and grappling, which leads to moments where you accidentally attack mid-air and fall. It’s frustrating and easily the weakest part of the gameplay. And then there’s Fury. Fury absolutely carries the experience. Ruthless, powerful, and commanding presence throughout. Her character arc is surprisingly well done, and yeah, At your service, my queen. The story is structured, easy to follow without being hand-holdy, and ties nicely into the larger Darksiders universe. It left me actually interested in what comes next, especially with Darksiders 4 on the horizon. Overall: 9/10 If you like Souls-like combat but want something more focused and manageable, this is a lightweight goldmine. Highly recommended.

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
