  • Camera control is a constant issue
  • Especially in chaotic fights

  • Enemies are very frustrating to fight in mobs
  • A relatively linear interconnected world
  • Battles are fought against a frustrating camera and lock-on system just as much as any enemies
  • The generic and drab environments aren't enticing to explore
  • Progression is simplistic and devolves combat into repetition
  • Platforming and puzzles are dull a

  • Narrative is poorly executed
  • Puzzles don't kick in heavily until final act
  • Technical issues abound
  • Missing a lot of what makes Darksiders great
  • Some puzzles are needlessly obfuscating or simply insanely restrictive in the time given
  • Bugs can often occur on any prolonged session on the PC
  • Most areas are fairly bland and uninteresting
  • Checkpoints are horribly placed
  • Traversal controls can occasionally be janky
  • We lost the great RPG elements of Darksiders II
  • Difficulty level is all over the damned place
  • Slowest. Healing. Animation. In. Any. Game. Ever

  • Darksiders III is a fun game with an engaging combat system that can be very satisfying, particularly thanks to the dodge and counterattack system in place. All of this is surrounded by a surprisingly compelling storyline with interesting characters. Ther...

  • Abstract:  First, let's talk about how exciting it is to have a new Darksiders game at all. After Vigil and THQ were shut down/sold off I had very little hope for a continuation of this niche but exciting series. The first Darksiders introduced War as the first of t...

  • The straightforward simplicity of Darksiders III is a refreshing change of pace after exploring so many dense open-world games. That simplicity doesn't refer to the combat or boss battles, though, which are complex and almost startlingly unforgiving. Its...

  • All in all, would I recommend Keepers of the Void? If you enjoyed Darksiders III, I would, and if you do not own the game yet but expect you will enjoy it, then again I would recommend this DLC for it. The gameplay is fun, with interesting puzzles, some c...

  • Does Darksiders III earn my recommendation? Yes but with the sizeable qualification that you should expect it to be very challenging and at times feel unbalanced, even on the difficulty named Balanced. In terms of difficulty, this does not feel like a dir...
