  • 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
  • Too easy to get lost in the world

  • Reliant on mechanics lifted from other titles
  • 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

  • Abstract:  Darksiders 3 is a game that straddles the line between two different ideas, never fully committing to either.It wants to be a modern action-adventure where you explore a dense world, using a variety of abilities and tools to solve puzzles and search for h...

  • 2Well it's not often that I can say this but Darksiders III is a must own for any gamer on the PS2. Just kidding! This game screams at all that is bad with rushed or incomplete video games on next gen consoles.This title actually made me angry playing it...

  • "Disappointed" is the right word, I think. Again, Darksiders III isn't bad per se. It simply feels unnecessary. I don't mind that the game is structured like an adventure from the Xbox 360 era, nor its short length, nor its hammy characters. Those are all...

  • Abstract:  Irregardless of the quality of the game itself, it's genuinely thrilling to live in the timeline where Darksiders 3 actually managed to make it onto shelves.As that first title screen faded into focus, I found myself struck by a sense of improbability. Im...

  • Darksiders 3 is a stripped-down, fundamentals-focused continuation of the franchise that'll likely appease fans looking for another one of those games - if only barely. It's fun and challenging in the right spots but it fails to modernise and move the fra...

  • Abstract:  Over the course of playing Darksiders III, my feelings toward it have evolved from disappointment to anger, acceptance, and finally appreciation. Disappointment that it is a slimmer and far less varied game than Darksiders II. Anger on account of the game...

  Published: 2018-11-26, review by: eurogamer.net

  • Abstract:  There's something of the palate cleanser to the faithful hack and slash game. When elsewhere the worlds are getting bigger, the narratives more urgent and the collectables more numerous, games such as Darksiders generally have only one goal: hitting monst...

  • The Darksiders style is in full force, Combat is smooth and satisfying
  • Framerate frequently stutters and dips, Blurry textures and frequent pop-in, Puzzles can rely on frustration more than intuition
  • Darksiders 3 feels like coming home for fans, and combat is a blast - but it can be hard to appreciate the good when dealing with a laundry list of technical stumbles...
