#THQ NORDIC DARKSIDERS III CODE#
THQ Nordic provided us with a Darksiders III code for review purposes. Darksiders III is fun in small bursts, but also very shallow, and the more of it you play, the shallower it feels. Dear Darksiders fans, Just want to share our press announcement of today - if you want to stay up-to-date, please make sure to put Darksiders III on your wishlist here on Steam: Vienna, Austria, May 2, 2017. But honestly, the game is so shallow that that’s really what you need to know about it. I realize this review can basically be boiled down to “I liked Darksiders III, and here’s several paragraphs on why it wasn’t that good” - and even I see the contradiction.

If the game was insanely fun, that may not be an issue, but as I said above, there’s a lot of mindless hacking and slashing here, so adding more of it isn’t a huge mark in the plus column. Darksiders III is very stingy about letting you pick up wherever you last left off, and it’s not always clear when the game has saved your progress, or when you’ll come back to it and discover you’ve lost about fifteen minutes. The other big annoyance is the few-and-far-between save points. I would have thought those two traits were mutually exclusive, but apparently not. Consequently, the game simultaneously feels very linear (since it’s always funneling you towards your next point) and very confusing (since many of the locations tend to look pretty uniform, it’s easy to wind up backtracking unintentionally). First and foremost, there’s no map of any kind in its place, there’s a compass pointing above you in the general direction you have to go. They were the publishers of Darksiders II Deathinitive Edition (2015). Darksiders III is an action-adventure game with. The game is scheduled for release on Novemfor Microsoft Windows PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. It is a sequel to Darksiders II and the third entry in the Darksiders series. The game also isn’t helped by some questionable design choices. THQ Nordic GmbH (formerly Nordic Games GmbH) is an Austrian video game publisher. Darksiders III is an upcoming hack and slash action-adventure video game being developed by American studio Gunfire Games and will be published by THQ Nordic. Fury is fun to play as smaller chunks, which is how I ended up playing Darksiders III, but it also makes it feel like a bit of a slog at times. But at the same time, a half-dozen or so God of War games later, that well is pretty much dry. To be fair, the original God of War games showed you can get a fair amount of mileage from a character whose sole trait is unrelenting anger. And that’s literally all there is to her. Gunfire was the studio who worked on last years release of Darksiders III, a title that THQ said it was incredibly happy with sales-wise following the games launch. The main character is one of the four horse(wom)en of the apocalypse, Fury, and as you can probably guess, her defining trait is that she’s angry all the time. Austin, TX/USA, July 9th, 2018: THQ Nordic today announced that hack-n-slash action-adventure Darksiders III, currently in development at Gunfire Games.

In the case of Darksiders III, by contrast, it means that I liked it because it provided some moderately fun hack & slash gameplay - but there’s very little chance it’ll stand out in my memory years from now as a classic of the genre.Ī big part of this is because of what my colleague Tyler noted about the game back when it first came out on PS4 and Xbox One: it’s very one-note. In the case of the first Darksiders, I liked it because it was a near-perfect blend of God of War and Legend of Zelda that I still remember fondly. That said, in this case “enjoy” encompasses a wide range of responses. That was the case with the first Darksiders, it was the case with the second, and, now that Darksiders III has arrived on the Switch, it’s the case for the third game as well.

Now let's see some games.Three games into the Darksiders series (or four, if you want to count Genesis, which I can’t say that I do), I’ve noticed a pattern: I start playing the game, I’m indifferent to it at best, then I come back to it later and enjoy it. And they've got the support of Korean game publisher Smilegate, which infused the company with a $100-million-dollar investment.

And finally, veterans of The Last of Us, Destiny, God of War, and other big AAA franchises have banded together to form a new game development company, That's No Moon Studios. Well, hopefully most of those units aren't going to scalpers. That's great news, and also partly explains why they're so hard to find: every unit made is sold.

And speaking of PlayStation and Xbox, both companies have been posting record sales for their hardware in recent months. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville, and Tennis World Tour 2.
