Long-dead beloved franchises are being revived thanks to feminist money. Meanwhile you're still stuck on /v/ and pirating games you'll never play anyway but you just want to hurt the developers.

>>383155360
>Do you guys think this will be at least decent?

Decent is the very definition of Darksiders. They're very solidly 7.5 games, and I don't think they'll mess with it too much.

I liked Darksiders a lot. It's the first game I ever got all trophies for, and I recently got the PC remake for like 3$ and it was just as good as I remember. Got all achievements for it there too.

Darksiders 2 is a strange beast. It kept a lot of what made the first good, but also added a bunch of stuff that doesn't really make it better. But ut doesn't really make it worst either. And I respect them for changing enough of the game to avoid being formulaic.

I hope the 3rd game does something similar. Keeps some stuff, changes other. Maybe go for a more stealth approach to differentiate Fury from her brothers. The gameplay video we've seen so far made it look like what you'd expect from Darksiders.

Don't see how it could be since they're SJWs now.

>>383156912
My only real complaint for Darksiders 1 is some of the areas went on for too long to "teach" you how to use items, like the bomb. I don't need like 15 bomb puzzles to prove I know how to use bombs to kill the boss.

IIRC Darksiders 2 alleviated some of that.

>>383155360
started out 3 brothers, what the fuck happened? r.i.p THQ

>>383157242
Or was it a boomerang or something? Whatever.

>>383156637
>who's making this? Didn't THQ went bankrupt?

No one bought Vigil Games when THQ went under because Darksiders 2 had just come out and Vigil had nothing in the production pipe. So they mostly split into two smaller studios.

One is called Airship Syndicate and is making an RPG called Battle Chasers: Nightwar. http://store.steampowered.com/app/451020 It looks pretty cool.

The other studio is called Gunfire Games and they're the ones making Darksiders 3. Both studios are in Austin, Texas I believe, and both are now being published by THQ Nordic, which isn't THQ at all, it's a small Austrian developer / publisher that used to be called Nordic Games which bought the rights to everything THQ that hadn't been bought already, including Darksiders. They then talked to the two Vigil off-shoots and both seemed to like them and they're all working together now.

There is nothing about feminism or progressivism involved here. The franchise was always planned to involve all the horsemen, and Fury was always a woman. And while they've changed her armor a bit, I think she looks more like her brothers now.

>>383156364
Out of 4 riders, 1 was told to be a female from the beginning.
They had 2 male protags and now they had to choose between male and female. There is nothing SJW about that SO FAR.

So I've got Darksiders and Darksiders Warmastered. Is Warmastered that much better or is it a touch up that actually makes the game worse?

>>383156912
>>383156996
I just wish darksiders 1 and 2 had a better check list for the items collected.

I'm trying to plat darksiders 2 but geting all the collectables is a pain in the ass, especially because i didn't have a checklist for it before starting the game so i'll have to backtrack the entire game.

>>383155360
>Do you guys think this will be at least decent?
The short game play the showed looked kinda bad. Combat complexity was maybe sub DS1, camera was a mess, environ was maybe OK, as it had some nice scale, but then quickly devolved to sewer level, graphics are OK, fury design/model looks pretty bad, boss fight looked boring, fury move set is meh, animations are obviously, r-r-right?, a work in progress.

The next trailer has to impress.

>>383157708
>>383157708

I found Darksiders 1 to be very easy to get all of the collectibles and achievements, with only one or two being missable.

Darksiders 2 is much harder to fully complete, and doesn't feel as rewarding to because of the randomized loot. Once you've gotten everything in DS1, you know you're as powerful as you can possibly be. In DS2, you might already be brokenly powerful without having tried if you got lucky.

>>383157581
All it did was touch up the graphics. Because of the style, the games still look great. I highly recommend you at least play the 1st.

>>383157983

The trailer they showed looked very much like an alpha build. I know the "But it's just an alpha" meme, but I can appreciate that they're actually showing what they have here and not some pre-baked shit trying to pass off as actual gameplay like Ubisoft always does.

>>383158131
>Once you've gotten everything in DS1, you know you're as powerful as you can possibly be. In DS2, you might already be brokenly powerful without having tried if you got lucky.

Only reason i'm being able to attempt the 100% run is because i got lucky and got a life steal scythes. Also some unique items you get level up with you on deathinitive mode.

>>383158131
So Warmastered will just make it look better? Alright, I'll give it a shot

>>383155360
i wanted to play as the one with guns more desu but this could be interesting too

i just hope they learned from DS2 and don't go for the open world meme too hard and don't have a bunch of shitty samey Diablo-like stuff

They made her look like her brothers. Well we can't really tell with Death, but War has high cheekbones, a pointed face and a large forehead. Death's Mask has the same style as War's face, and now Fury has a similar look.

I wonder what order they were born in.

>>383161828
We know Death is the eldest and War is the youngest out of the four.

>>383161371
That's exactly what is SJW about it. She was too sexy so they uglied her up so she wouldn't be attractive. Bet her whole personality is gonna be "bitch" too, because that's what SJWs think a strong woman is.

>Do you guys think this will be at least decent?
Not really from what they've showend
>What is your opinion on the previous darksiders games?
1 was decent, 2 improved the combat a lot but introduced a lot of mechanics that simply didn't work in that kind of game which ultimately made me drop it.
>What do you want to see in the third game?
No more leveling up, loot or climbing segments and a combat at least as good as 2's
Not holding my breath for it tho.

The first two are great, absolutely love em.

This one still looks good, although Im wary of how it will turn out after the IP changing hands.

Im sure it will at least be good, just by the fact that the style of gameplay alone is something we dont get much of on PC.

>>383156769
The fuck are you babbling about? I just asked because I liked both Darksiders, played the second on WiiU and then bought both of them on a Steam sale. And I thought 3 would never happen when THQ went bankrupt.

>because square high cheekbones faces correlate to extreme ugliness right?

Actually traditionally it correlates to being evil, or untrustworthy. Thats why villains have high cheekbones almost always.

First game was great, one of the best Zelda games.
Darksiders 2 was kinda weak. It was entertaining enough, but they switched their main inspiration from Zelda to Diablo trying to meet them both half-way and ended up with rather unfocused mess without a hope in hell for consistent difficulty curve. Story had pretty much nothing to do with the first game. And finally it just felt lazy in too many aspects, particularly how often you were sent to get three X, and to get each X you had to get three Y. Still there was enough good in it, particularly when it came to visual design.
Wonder what they're going to do with third game.

>>383161371

Her in-game model looks better but yeah, she should be at least as attractive as Uriel was in the first two games. I hope they tighten it up by release.

I also don't love that she just wears pants. She doesn't have to have her cheeks out like in Mad's art but she looks a bit too "Warrior" right now. Without the pants it looked more mystical. If they were going to cover her up, they should have gone with lighter armor and more flowing clothing to get across the "mage" aspect of her character.

>>383162009
Wow, he looked like absolute shit.

>>383162009
>>383163809

Yup, though part of me wished it was an unlockable skin, just for some variation.

>>383161972
And I want to say Fury and Strife are twins, at least that's what the wiki said

>>383155360

>first one is a great stomp with well balanced and mostly well designed game balance
>second goes deep off the loot'em up genre and feels a lot more lacking in focus

Not mention DS2 is such a fucking arse game technically, having deleted and reverted my save tons of times, last time it having the audacity to corrupt my save after i instantly died to one of the optional bosses that was actually way past my level, and then kindly give me the option to start from the very beginning again :^)

DS1 only crashed once, and only after half a day of constant running

I get where you're coming from

I just really hoped she would've been sexier as depicted in the first concept art. Right now she is uglier then Lilith(although she is a succubus) or the angel girl from 1.
So far everyone is handsome or hot and would fit any punk rock bands but she just feels out of place as the sole ugly person right now

>>383156493
>>383156461
>>383157542

They altereed her original design, you stupid fucks who keep saying "Shes always been a woman".

Yeah we know, too bad they went back and changed her face to be mannish and covered her body up.

>>383164242

I still can't decide how I feel about DS2. I mean, I enjoyed it a lot and the combat is significantly more satisfying for me but I've replayed the first game three or four times but I haven't been able to replay DS2 once. I always get to the Land of the Dead and stop shortly after.

it is because darksiders 2 went for the open wolrd meme and the game feels a lot more boring when going trough the areas.

They added a bunch of shit that didn't really improve the game, it just stretched it out.

>>383164765

The game pulls it off so well

Her hair looks like cotton candy in the game

>>383155360
I hope there's at least 1 slut armor.

The first two were pretty good so I'd expect this one to at least be decent. Shame about the shitty main character though.

they should stick with the same formula as one or at least don't stray away too much. i'd rather be mildly disappointed than completely because they wanted to make the next best thing. keep it simple.

>>383161371
Imagine how good the game would have been if they had used the original design.

But no, gotta feminist it up to appeal to fat cunts who want to suck the life and fun out of games.

warmastered has serious audio issues with cutscenes, like the voices are super quiet and offsync, someone said if you replace the cutscene files with those from the original game the audio will be fine, but the cutscenes will be lower resolution, i havent tried it though

I played the original and half the sequel before my PC died. I was so starved for games I thought anything was great.

Turns out I was being a delusional faggot. For such a massive store, Steam is a pile of shit.

I'd say the original's a 7/10 and the sequel's a 5 or 6 based on what I played. Commendable that they tried new shit, though. I also love Death as a character. It's just the gameplay that felt lacking. I'm talking real review scores, not game journalist faggotry. I'm saying Darksiders II is average or a bit above.

then he builds a revolver for you. he also fixes the Armageddon blade.

Did they make any confirmation on when the events of the game are taking place? 2 if I remember correctly was between War's initial deployment to Earth and his exilement.

Good answer.
My favorite thing about Death besides the snark and dryness is that while he might not be as straight up powerful as War, he and the other horseman are still more than capable of wiping the floor with whatever attacks them.

I have absolutely no faith in this project.

>>383167898
>while he might not be as straight up powerful as War
???
In terms of gameplay he pants on head retarded and way stronger than War. Not to mention much better with magic.

>>383168429
I love Death, but War had like 9 health bars at full power, and he could pick up cars and throw them like footballs
Not saying Death is weak, none if the horsemen are, but I think Death even states in the comics or the novel that War is the strongest of them.

But you're right about the magic.

I really want them to get done with Fury so we can finally have a gunslinger MC.

>>383168870
Death got his name because he was the most unstoppable of all the four in battle. Maybe War has stronger peak performance, but Death killed the most Nephilim and personally murdered Absalom who was the ruler of their entire race, so overall he's stronger.
