Darksiders II Deathinitive Edition - PC (Steam)

Peaak of the games alsso thiss is not like the frist game

Phenominal game, still really beautiful at max resolution, highly reccomended to play with a controller on pc just like any hack and slash or souls like.

This game might be great on a console . but definetely not on PC.
It is created for console and then really poorly ported to Windows.
I can't talk about the gameplay as I was not actually able to play it.
Window version is full of bugs, the interface info provided at start are misleading of missing and game halts all the time.
Everytime I open the inventory to check an item I can't go back to the game.
If you are considering to buy the windows version stay clear of it and try something else.

Absolutely love this game spent so much time playing, can easily loose track of time whilst playing in a good way, such great game play and amazing story telling. Graphics compliment the game brilliantly

Kinder was für ein Genuss … was für eine Wohltat! Darksiders 2 macht einfach Spaß, und zwar von der ersten Sekunde an, da die DVD im Laufwerk rotiert und euch auf die beschwerliche Reise des Todes mitnimmt. (…) Wir können euch nur einen Rat geben: Wer keinen Bock darauf hat „Tod zu sein“, der ist einfach selbst dran schuld! Darksiders 2 ist ein absoluter Pflichtkauf

I absolutely love this game and would recommend it to anyone.
This game's got:
++ An open world.
++ Absolutely beautiful scenery and stunning artwork.
++ A really good story.
++ Lots of entertaining (although not too difficult!) puzzles.
++ Loot... Loot everywhere!
++ Quite difficult game-modes (I admittedly can't play on Hard, yet I've played games all of my life)
++ A lot of "content", as in it takes time to finish it. at 6 hours in I'm at roughly 20-25% or so of the game. ( I've played at normal speed, not rushing through, nor being particularly slow)

The downsides of this game:
-- Keybinds are somewhat awkward due to being a "Console Port" (most of these can be changed though.)
-- 720p textures, as optimized for pre-next-gen consoles (only noticable if looking up-close... but proper HD resolution textures would've been great)
-- Menus are a bit awkward, again due to it being a console port I'd assume. (The keybinds made me delete my ~30% Gamesave by accident as the key to delete was for some stupid reason the Tab key, so beware alt-tabbers!)

Conclusion, 9/10 amazing game once you get used to the minor console port kinks and considering how cheap this game is now, a few years after release, there's absolutely no reason not to try it out!

As the game story somewhat related to the previous game, I would suggest play Darksiders first game before this one.
In Darksiders 2 you will play as one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Death.

Death, will try to clear his brother War’s name by restore humanity, where War is convicted by destroying it. The story line was interesting and in my opinion it could be better, but in general it’s fine. Even though the world in Darksiders 2 is way bigger than the previous game, but it wasn’t good since there is not that much to explore. I guess the reason is so the can add more side quests and give the game more hours. the game comes with new skill system, where you have two paths, but still can mix each path skill with another. You have Harbinger Tree (Warrior path) and Necromancer Tree (Spellcasting path).

I liked the fact they didn’t make it like the previous game where you can buy your skills, but sill I don’t think it should be that much of skills. War as in the previous game has only four skills and they were perfect as they suite its character, which is the opposite in this game, even though his name is Death, you won’t feel the meaning of his name, except his Reaper form. I fact that you get gold after slaying an enemy when it was a souls in the last game it’s really confusing, since you use them to purchases items from demon called Vulgrim, who mentioned that he have no use of gold in Darksiders 1 and asked for souls as currency. And since we playing with Death, the souls will suit it more.

Weapons system I really didn’t like, in this game they allowed you to use different varieties of weapon; such as, Hummer, Swords, maces and etc, beside Death main weapon Scythe. the problem is unlike the previous game where you can use only War’s sword (Chaoseater), and the more you kill the more Chaoseater become strong and upgraded. In Darksiders 2 the Scythes are not different than other weapons. All these extra thing killed the character, you barley can see him as death. Even his agility, the way he moves, walk on walls doesn’t suit Death. Which makes you wonder how are they gonna deliver Strife character (One of Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse).

The graphics isn’t bad at all, and I hope they won’t change it.

To sum up, the game was a big surprise where there is a huge difference between it and the previous one. Even though they fail to deliver Death character as it should be, you will mostly like and enjoy the fights and the character. the story was great and really interesting. I hope the make the next game more like the first one, more Action than RPG as it suit the story and the characters more.
