So i played darksiders 1 and it was pretty good but ill be honest i was not super impressed with it . i recently got darksiders 2. and the graphics are fantastic i have no complaint about the gameplay great for rpg fans . you can lever your guy up and now you are able to pick items up such as secondary weapons and new pieces of armor making your guy even better new moves. i would say if your debating on it this is a game worth owning for sure don't miss out on this great game

I was hesitant about this game before buying it because the first Darksiders didn't have the replay value I was hoping for. This game, however, changes all of that. There are more areas to explore, weapons to obtain, and hidden bosses that the first game didn't have so you can go back and play it again if you overlooked them. The combat is fluid, the variety of moves is great and you just feel like a badass. The story is awesome like I expected and the art style makes everything look great. So far, I'm about 18 hours in and I don't think it's gonna end very soon. It briefly summarizes the events of the first game, so it's not necessary to play the first one, but the characters, story and gameplay of the first are worth looking into. Darksiders 2 definitely worth my time and money and I'm sure many who try it will agree.

Is one of the games that have the character of grief. Death is an important figure and powerful and the most beautiful story and will wait for the third part, as we waited for the second.Beautiful phrase heard (for my brother ......)

I pre-ordered Darksiders II and got it when it first came out. The differing puzzles were kind of hard to figure out but when i did figure it out, i would tell myself: "Sneaky sneaky, Vigil!" Some of the quests are time-consuming though. the Dead Council quest took forever to complete especially with the Judicator's Tomb. But Vigil did make sure that you were well rewarded.
Death's combo's are downright brutal and the bosses have a differing fight rather than just hack/slash/shoot them to death and if you didn't do it right, you'd be hurting.
For not playing Darksiders 1, I felt like I actually had a clue on what was going on and on the loading screens, rather than waiting for the game to load, it would tell a sort of tale on what happened in the main plot-line which made the load time seem a whole-lot shorter.

I bought this game with the understanding it would be better than the first darksiders, and after beating it was disappointed. The game glitched in acrobatic situations, making it difficult to progress. The puzzles were repetitive, and often to easy. The leveling system only had ONE good factor, and that was use of possessed weapons. What really got to me however was the lack of an ending with closure. I didn't expect it to conclude the first game, but there was just no grandness to it. Overall the second darksiders didn't stack up to its predecessor, and had almost no replay value.

The original Darksiders was fantastic. It took some of the best parts of a lot of great games and seamlessly weaved a new gaming experience from it. Darksiders II builds upon that foundation to deliver one of my favorite gaming experiences. Definitely pick up Darksiders II (and the original if you have missed out on it!).

For all the hype generated around the release of this game, I'm utterly shocked by the amount of glitches and pit falls that THQ was somehow unable to fix before their release date. I'm actually interested to know if anyone has actually beaten this game. Not due to the difficulty level like Dark Souls, but due to the programming blunders that make it absolutely impossible to progress through the game. For instance, on two separate play throughs (15 and 8 hours respectively) odd happenings prevented me from continuing farther in the game. On the first attempt, a NPC who normally responded to the talk button by performing an action was no longer able to be interacted with. As a result I couldn't be thrown to some ledge where a blatantly obvious switch for the door in front of me was. On the second attempt I was concluding a puzzle that involved a glowing ball. Upon throwing the ball across the room, it landed on a rock and despite the fact that it rolled off the rock, the ball was still rock height and floating ridiculously in the air. At this point I was no longer able to interact with the ball and furthermore was unable to finish the puzzle. On both occasions, previous save files were loaded to try and beat the glitches. This proved ineffective after numerous attempts. I would consider myself an avid gamer and as it turned out there was absolutely no other option than to start a new game. To be quite frank I am tired of starting a new game in Darksiders 2, which is a shame because the controls, graphics, and storyline are all intriguing and satisfying. All in all, this game is fabulous, but is majorly handicapped by serious malfunctions that make it nearly impossible to play and ultimately enjoy. My advice, wait until you can buy this game used for 17.99 or perhaps, wait until a confirmed patch has come out that fixes the brutal bugs. Just for the record, I was playing on XBOX 360 and I honestly have no idea if this review holds true for Darksiders 2 on other platforms. Good luck.

darksiders 2 fixes most of its problems that it faced on draksiders 1, but does have its annouying glitchs, but it doesnt damage the overall worth of its self. fighting is fun and easy, and upgradeing on the skill tree is easy but worth while, darksiders has always been all abought over the top action, and brain twisting puzzles, and thankfully darksiders 2 delievers on all my hopes. graphics are good, but when zoomed in graphics are blurry and undetailed, but for the most part they get the job done right! music fits the mood, and sound effects crash and slash till your speakers want to die, but thats a very good thing. For the most part draksiders delievers on all my hopes, wants, and needs. the entire time i played darksiders 2, i was on the edge of my seat, and thats another thing, darksider 2 is LONG!!! (I know thats what she sayed) but still it will take many many hours to 100% beat darksiders 2!

I would recommend this game to anyone that even thought about playing the first one!! its sooo much better than the first. it has a much more in depth story than the first one; it has more of a zelda feel than the first one did which personally love, with the way the gear system and the leveling system is it gives it an amazing replay value in my opinion... i would recommend to anyone it is amazing.
