Levelling up takes an increasing amount of souls, a level will reward you with 1 attribute point which can be used to increase your Health, Strength or Arcana damage. Items come in forms of healing or buffs, increasing your damage, defence or ability gauges. As you defeat enemies you gain souls, which you spend on consumable items, levelling up or enhancements to your weaponry. There are only 2 choices in the game that really make any difference, making replays rather pointless, though some may want to play through once or twice to see those outcomes, or merely look up a video.Īfter the backlash of the insane RPG jump and loot-hoarder mentality of Darksiders 2, D3 throws away the concept of random items and gear, shifting to more of a Darksiders 1 approach to gameplay and progression. Like the previous games, there are plenty of collectables and side-paths to take, from items that increase your power to little objects that unlock achievements. The main story will last you around 15 hours, but that will change drastically based on which of the 4 difficulties you choose and your general aptitude with combat and puzzles. Along the way Fury will also struggle with an internal conflict, as she figures out that not everyone has to die, sometimes talking can be beneficial. While War and Death do their own thing, uncovering the conspiracy and cleaning War’s slate with the council. While D3 mostly follows the same plot of the other games, Fury has a more structured approach as she is taken a direct order from the council to detain the 7 sins. The Lord of Hollows will also act as our quartermaster, giving us new weapons and abilities as we progress. Along the way, we will meet up with Vulgrim who once again acts as our store and levelling up merchant. Moving between familiar locales, water dungeons, because we always need water dungeons, crypts and more Fury will make use of both her athletic talents and that of her whip mastery.
Heeding the call of the Charred Council, 3 open-maw godlike beings who command the horsemen, Fury sets off to earth to take down the 7 sins. Though the timeline of D3 is somewhat behind the others, as events do lead up to the previous games, being set around the time of War’s 100-year imprisonment. If you have played Darksiders 1 or 2 you will know plenty of the story, as they run alongside one another, so it is no surprise when War tells Fury that they were set up. As the only horsemen to actually do their job, Fury is tasked with dealing with the 7 sins that are let loose on earth due to the early-apocalypse started by her brother War.
DARKSIDERS III SWITCH BACK TO FLAME HOLLOW JUMP SERIES
The series never really hit the big time, being mostly a niche franchise, but with fan uproar and well-received reviews the games have continued on.ĭarksiders 3 sees you take on the role of Fury, a woman with a temper which some may relate to a female Kratos. Following the tale of the 4 horsemen, Darksiders set up a dark apocalypse-now world, with each instalment focusing on each of the riders as they work parallel to one another. Darksiders 3 rises from the ashes of its franchise, with the original developer THQ suffering some troubles, being broken off into THQ Nordic and other companies, it was quite the possibility we would never see the series continue.
