Darksiders III

Once again, the Horsemen offer us a masterpiece. Darksiders III, even with all the fear and skepticism behind the game, has managed to become a superb hack ‘n’ slash. The personal journey of Fury against the Seven Deadly Sins is simply amazing, and everything is set towards the future for Strife to come and end this awesome epic.

Although Darksiders 3 is not a masterpiece like its predecessor, Gunfire Games have managed to create an almost fun and sometimes tough action-adventure game with reduced resources and well-sanctioned gameplay.

If Darksiders III spent a bit longer in development then it would have been almost on par with the previous games in the series. Its action is intense and the characters are phenomenal but the amount of glitches is definitely hard to ignore.

Darksiders 3 feels like coming home for fans, and combat is a blast - but it can be hard to appreciate the good when dealing with a laundry list of technical stumbles.

When viewed against the other two games in the series, Darksiders III is a disappointment. While I feel the gameplay is harder than it needs to be, I’m more concerned that the product seems half-broken in a lot of places. This is an upsetting follow-up to a great series and it deserves better.

If the idea was to get you into Fury's angry mindset, then job done - though in truth you more often feel like one of her lesser-known cousins, Boredom or Irritation. [Issue#328, p.112]

The game is a nightmare to play through, with an unlikable protagonist, a chugging frame rate, and a mountain of bugs. It’s completely and utterly broken, but even when it works (which is almost never), it amounts to nothing more than a below average hack-and-slash with some decent puzzles.

Junho de 2025 - Platinado - DIficuldade Dificil. A Cólera começa sendo uma personagem muito chata, é arrogante demais mas no final do jogo ela se conserta. a jogabilidade tira os elementos de rpg que tinham no segundo jogo com aquele tanto de equipamentos com cada um podendo ter varios tipos de atributos. Agora o maximo que voce faz é poder equipar uma runa em cada equipamento. Você tambem tem varias pedras que pedem ser usadas para receber um buff temporário. Agora voce tem um poder elemental que interagem com as fases porem podia ser uma coisa mais livre. Cada forma elemental tem um poder especial que gasta toda a mana ao invés de ter vários poderes igual nos outros jogos. O jogo so te uma sidequest de recuperar humanos invés das varias que tinham no segundo jogo. Sinto falta de algumas coisas que foram removidas como correr e escalar paredes e não ter mapa faz muita falta pois tem vários locais que você tem que voltar depois de conseguir um novo poder. Mas teve coisas boas também, Agora você pode se pendurar em qualquer beirada, tem pulo duplo que era uma coisa que fazia muita falta no jogo anterior, e tem um botão para correr. E foram removidas as partes do cavalo que eram muito chatas.

Its a solid title, not nearly as bad as some suggest. ITs got a decent story and fun combat that clicks when you click with it. The camera can be a bit wonky, as well as some of the platforming. The only other critique I have is with the overall level design. It doesn't match with the level of awesome character models. The evirons in contrast are much more samey and just not as well fleshed out.

Compared to the previous game this one really ****. I have played the first and the second game and I was really exicited for the third one, only to be dissapointed. The first things that is really annoying if the fact the there is no map for some reason and you are not able to navigate very properly in the game. The second thing that is bugging me is the fact that I am playing on normal mode, and out of nowhere I get hit 3 times and suddenly I am dead. I dont wanna imagine what is like on apocalypse mode. The other thing is that compared to the previous games the animation scenes in this one are bad and I am not sure why is that. The previous one got so much smooter animation and scenes making this one looks like it was made in a hurry. The dodging does not feel right as well and even though you are dodging you get hit somehow. Overall I do not recommend it and I wish I did not buy it.

Darksiders franchise suffers hardly from an identity crisis. It really dont know what it wants to be. Now it wants to copy souls like success, without knowing what made it successful in the first place. There is not much freedom of criativity in the combat or in customization, there are no builds in this. The game is super linear. Fury is super annoying. But there are some good things, it has good boss design, areas and enemies are actually creative. Overall, its clear that the reason for this is the low budget the game received. And unfortunately the game didnt sold well, now the hope for an ending for the franchis dont looks like its coming soon
