Review: Excellent Game and Really Cheap to Boot - For a game I've never heard of, it really impressed me. Beginning was a little rough, particularly the areas before the first couple of bosses. There are decent sized dungeons you must navigate before fighting any boss, and some of the puzzles seemed a little weird and sometimes unnecessary and the backtracking made me nod in disapproval a few times, but the story wasn't bad and the characters are very believable in their roles and I really liked how the main character interacted with everybody, so I persevered. After the first couple bosses though, I got used to these little quirks and the game became really quite enjoyable. In terms of graphics, top notch. The characters and voice acting were also top tier. Music is great and so is the atmosphere. Story starts off alright, but by the end it's so ridiculously amazing it makes you want to know what happens next. Gameplay is really good too, though I'd suggest going through this game on the easiest setting during your first playthrough. Many enemies have patterns that you need to know if you don't want to be dying and the bosses need to be killed in specific ways that I normally died the first time I went up against them, simply because I'd figure out the patter and my health would be too low to take the inevitable hit or two before I could finish them off properly. Also there's plenty of things to upgrade and skills to get and it was nice for me to have a bit of leeway where I could make more mistakes and figure out more of how the game worked before I tried a more difficult setting. But you start off relatively weak going up against relatively weak enemies, but as you progress through the game your character becomes more and more capable until he starts to feel OP as heck. But that doesn't meant the game isn't challenging and you won't still die if you're not careful, even on the easiest setting. No, it just means you can start facing the really difficult enemies that you can only defeat with a ridiculously overpowered character. Now there are some bad points of the game I should bring up. When I first started playing this game, I felt like I was playing a hack and slash game where I could just turn my brain off and mow through enemies. But no, the game makes you think, makes you do puzzles, collect items and do really specific things. It makes you think, "why am I doing this? Just give me the boss and let me kill it!" But, as stated earlier, by after the second boss, it doesn't feel as bad, and you start getting used to this. War begins to feel unstoppable. Enemy or obstacle, it doesn't matter, nothing can prevent War's wrath. You feel less and less limited in the best ways possible. This is a game that only gets better the farther in you get. And the best part is, this game only cost me like $10. Thank you Vigil Games for this excellent game at this excellent price, I look forward to getting Darksiders 2.

Awesome game

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great game - difficulty advice
*by E***Y on January 14, 2010*

There has been a lot written about Darksiders in terms of it plagiarism of other games and also it's difficulty settings, control scheme and combat. I'm about 1/4 of the way through and so whilst not a complete review I wanted to share thoughts on those 4 issues. Other games - I have never played God of War (I know) but I guess that there is some similarity in the sword, scythe etc and the combo button mashing with an instant kill option (circle) once you've beaten the enemies up enough, but so what? There is very little originality in games these days as a lot has been tried in some shape or another. If it works, go with it. It also "borrows" from Zelda in that there are dungeons and puzzles but in my experience they are a lot more adult that the Zelda games with more fighting involved a long the way. Personally I think there is a good balance so far and it's the sort of game that pushes you along - you want to see what's next. Difficulty - I am 39 and play games, but not all the time so I normally play on normal. However a review I read said that the game gets easier when you get all your kit and power ups etc so I chose Apolyptic difficulty. For me, this is fine. It's a challenge, but not so I'm chucking the controller around. There have been sections so far where I've failed a few times and had to retry or go back and fine life shards to boost my health, but I've done it and feel more satisfied for doing so. If you want to rush through the game choose normal, for a decent challenge but certainly not impossible, crank it up to Apolyptic. Controls - Darksiders gives you lots of weapons, combos, gear etc that I think makes it interesting and fun. So far, a new piece of kit should be used in combat, it's not just for one specific purpose, which again makes it interesting. Getting to use most of the gear is straight forward but some things are a bit complex. You'll get there but you'll need to practice a bit (e.g. assign the crossblade to R2, press R3 to enter aim mode, hold L2 to tag enemies and R2 to fire....). Overall its' fine but there's more than 1 button to press. Combat - Most combat is button mashing but the game varies how many and how challenging the opponents are. Some enemies require constant dashing in and a few strikes before retreating away or you will suffer (probably more so on Apolyptic) and the mini-bosses / bosses require a bit more thought. Final thoughts - I bought Bayonetta and Darksiders at the same time and so far I found the first hour or so of Bayonetta to be very irritating (story, cutscenes etc) and whilst I will definitely go back to it and will no doubt love it I am most likely to play through Darksiders first. It has a great blend of action, exploration and puzzles that keeps me coming back for more. Overall, highly recommended and I hope that Vigil is successful and is able to make more games like this in future.
