Death can remind maybe to often to Raziel, from Legacy of Kain, but that's not too much of a bad thing. Compared with the previous one, this game adds some kind of RPG only in the choice of dialogue order (or to skip it altogether), optional quests, items and a greater ability tree. For what is worth, anyway, it's an action game as good as Darksiders. Death is a bit less charismatic than War, but the change of pace between War's hard blocks and Death's quick dodges changes the way of play. It requires practice to dodge because you cannot chain more than two, and if timed poorly bosses are going to be tough. Through the game you sympathize with Death's feeling as an errand boy, grown tired of some people and smiling when Death so it says. Just like the end of the one, so satisfactory, there are some boss battles ended in that kind of tired-of-you already, with Death doing a cinematic final far more satisfactory that any QTE or red-life-bar going to zero. Overall, is a good game I like playing, with a lot of spatial puzzles to be solved.

This game is worth every penny. If you liked the first title, you will love Darksiders 2. The main difference is in my opinion that you have a greater "skilling" part. Nearly every defeated enemy drops an item which sometimes better than the one you already have (eg. boots or a weapon). The action is as good as in the first Darksiders. I would buy it again.

After playing Darksiders 1 (and really loved this game and War character) I really anticipated to play this title for a long time. The game play is pretty much the same as the first title, which makes the learning curve of the game pretty easy. The voice acting of the different characters you'll meet in the game is great and the scenery is outstanding. The characters visual on the other hand could use an extra polish. The combat mechanism is easy to use what makes the fights scenes so much fun. This title differ from the first title in the way you can upgrade Death character and using this skills in battle. Overall it's a great game for all of the Hack & Slash lovers out there.

Darksiders 2 is a very good RPG, full of surprises...

Great Darksiders II

Darksiders II is an excellent game. If you played Darksiders I, add depth (or death), fluid animation, loot and inspired level design, enhanced with superb graphics and you have an idea of what is Darksiders II. I liked the first game, I love the second.

Some draggy bits but overall it's very good.

Darksiders II is a very good game.

Darksiders II is a really really good game. Better than part 1!

Darksiders is one of those games that are left on the sidelines at their output to pursue other noble titles. At the time of the first chapter with War I found the game and playing it quite by accident. I discovered a fantastic universe and excellent playability. I enjoyed the game from start to finish without a break and looked forward to its sequel. Darksiders 2 does not betray the expectations. Starting up where the previous adventure we will get in the shoes of Death to travel the long road to redemption. Although the game has a few framerate problems, this does not affect the gameplay. The new title is with pleasure and lets you play as well as revive the classic gameplay of Darksiders, add several solutions during gameplay and corrects some minor imperfections. The game can be considered as a dark Zelda (and all Nintendo fans know what I'm talking about when it comes to gameplay of Zelda). Many skills and customizations can be used during the adventure. Quests and many secrets lengthen your day to save humanity and free your brother. The game is recommended for anyone looking for an adventure that's long-lived and deeply satisfying.
