Darksiders II Deathinitive Edition - Nintendo Switch

THQ is doing an awesome job with porting these great titles over. Darksiders 1 for the Switch was a good port, but I'll admit that some of the control were lacking just a little. Mostly the aiming for that matter. However Darksiders 2 is great all the way around. It looks fantastic, it runs very well, the controls feel good and the action and story are pretty solid. Very happy I picked this up. Definitely worth $30, even though it's been out for many years now. If you see it, get it!

Got it to complete the Darksiders collection of games. Good graphics. Nice story. Gameplay very straight forward.

Cards on the table: I love the first Darksiders. It's a great zelda-inspired game that elevates the combat to something closer to God of War or Devil May Cry. It isn't without its flaws, but given the noticeably-smaller budget than games in its class, it does a bangup job. As for Darksiders II, the scope has increased compared to the first game. This (mostly) leads to a bigger, better world with a lot of interesting things in it. My only major gripe was the hamfisted inclusion of a loot system. It needlessly slows the game down without adding anything of substance or value. Without the gear system, this would be a top-tier game worthy of recommendation to basically anyone. As it stands, it's an interesting continuation of the franchise for anyone who played the first one, assuming they can tolerate the loot.

I use my switch in portable mode 90%+ of the time. There are some games I worry about on the small form factor screen, but Darksiders II works well. This game series is one of my favorites. The game is very narrative driven, with RPG components, a dark theme and art assets based upon the work and design by comic artist Joe Mad. If you’re looking for something that played like Ocarina of Time, or the Soul Reaver series as a narrative driven action RPG with lite leveling and upgrade components, give this series a try. They look great on the Switch and I’m glad to have bought them again and being able to play them on the go.

I initially played Darksiders 2 on Wii U back around the launch of Wii U. Back then, I thought the game looked great despite having less foliage then the 360 and PS3 versions, I thought it played great, and I thought ran well enough. However, the Wii U version missed most of the DLC. The Switch version has all of the DLC, looks better across the board, and has a much more stable framerate. While the Switch version isn't as good as the remastered version other platforms, it's hands down better then all of the non remastered versions. And, because it's on Switch, you can play it portably which is a big deal for me. I highly recommend it.

Loved this on the wii u. Now on the Switch I can take it on the go. Tho be prepared when playing off TV - game stats/item/etc menu fonts are small!!!
