Abstract: After six long years of uncertainty over getting a follow up or not, we return to the realm of Darksiders. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse continue their quest to save humanity and uncover the secrets of the Charred Council. As Darksiders allowed you...
Excellent, ever-unfolding level design, Satisfying traversal powers and it feels great switching between them on-the-fly, Enemy designs for the Seven Deadly Sins are inspired
Littered with performance issues, Camera control is a constant issue, especially in chaotic fights, Story feels inessential

One-on-one combat encounters in open areas offer engaging challenges, Inventive character designs stand out
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
