I figure this game should have a discussion thread, although I'm guessing most of the discussion already happens on Miiverse. Every time I boot this game up and lose a couple of hours messing around in the dungeons, fighting off some colourful variants of skeletons and ghouls in the land of the dead, I feel compelled to post a new drawing to Miiverse and see what others are saying. Current discussion seems to be around what should be made of the people who worked on this game. Should they be hired by Nintendo to, er, "enhance" the Zelda series with their experience? Should they be As for the game itself, it's almost as good as Zelda, but I find that it a lot more evident in the Darksiders formula that for the most part you'll find Death finding something for one guy, so that you can get the second of three things that lets you continue the fetch-quest for another guy. At least the combat is fun, and the levelling up feels rewarding in all the things you can do to upgrade your skills and equipment. URL to share (right click and copy)

Darksiders II is definitely my favorite single player Wii U retail game. The comparisons I read of it being similar to Zelda have been rather spot on. The mix of action, adventure, and puzzle make for a very well balanced experience, to be sure. The music is rather good, as is the voice work, and while the graphics are very nice, there are some major tearing or frame rate issues to be found (rather consistently, and throughout). It isn't enough of a problem to be a major distraction, but it is a problem all the same, and one that should not exist. I've currently given up on the game, despite liking it as a whole, as I'm stuck fighting some ridiculously ginormous bad guy, and the camera angles just aren't cooperating well with my patience level. Hopefully I'll get back into it soon, as there's a lot to like. |
