The camera is desperate to stay behind Fury so when you back up too far Fury just disappears inside the camera and in a game where each hit is quite punishing you’ll die very quickly as you can’t see what’s happening. If you’re in a confined space or back up against a wall then the camera will fail to show you the action. The camera is atrocious and for many reasons. Primarily this is the fault of the camera. It’s an interesting take on the formula and isn’t out of place, unfortunately the execution is lacking. ![]() There is also no map like Dark Souls, but here it makes backtracking to check which areas can be explored more to be needlessly difficult. You also have an Estus Flask equivalent, a set number of healing items that replenish upon death but you also have a finite number of other items to use when required. Any items you collected will still be in your inventory and any completed puzzles will remain so, all enemies will respawn and you’ll drop all your Souls (currency and experience) at the place of your death to recollect. Secondly, if you die you return to the last portal you passed. As you level up you can take advantage of the weaker enemies somewhat, but stronger enemies should not be taken lightly and if you’re facing a group then you’ll need to be especially careful as they have a tendency to surround you. Enemies hit hard and despite having quite a few different combos at your disposal it’s in your best interest to wait for your opponent to attack, especially against bosses, before dodging and counter attacking. There is one major difference though, Darksiders III has been heavily influenced by the Dark Souls series. You can dodge, double jump and swim and will gain new weapons and abilities as the game progresses allowing you access to areas in the large, interconnected world that you couldn’t explore previously either for secrets or to continue your adventure. Fury wields a whip and can chain combos together, with the timing of your button presses changing which combo you get. Viewed from a third person perspective at first glance things seem similar to the the previous two games. ![]() As returning players already know there are many mysteries in the overall story to Darksiders so although Fury’s task is straight forward she will uncover more than she initially intended over the course of the game. ![]() She’s tasked with killing the Seven Deadly Sins who, along with angels and demons have taken over the Earth after the coming of the Apocalypse in the first game. Whilst the first two titles were very faithful Zelda clones the third entry takes a slightly different approach and goes Metroidvania.īased around the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the first two titles had you play as War and Death respectively, the third has you playing as Fury. The franchise (and THQ’s name) were bought up by Nordic Games and ex-members of Vigil Games (developers of the first two Darksiders games) formed Gunfire Games and have created Darksiders III.
