I see a lot of people saying this game is a cheap Dark Souls ripoff, but in actuality, they should be making the comparison to Bloodborne... I've played every Souls game from Demon's Souls to DS3 plus Bloodborne to their completion, and combat-wise, it's closest to Bloodborne because of the speed of play, agility and lack of defense... that being said, I'm actually finding the game very enjoyable... visuals, tone, combat, music, story, it's all really good... I'm not letting all the hate surrounding it color my opinion and am playing it for what it is... Yes, it's very different from the previous two Darksiders games (both of which I've also played through to completion) and I'm totally fine with it taking a different direction, because this game's pacing and gameplay fit the personality of Fury, so to me, it makes sense... I actually hope for the fourth horseman's game will again mix up the formula to keep me on my toes
And I'm NOT saying this plays just like Bloodborne... merely saying that's really the best game in the Souls lineup to compare it to
But... with all that, the game still isn't perfect... there's the camera issues, dodging issues and mobs attacking you from off camera so you don't even know they're about to attack, but these should all be things that can be addressed with patches
There IS a good game here that for most people will be a good purchase once a sale hits and the patches are in, but there's also a good game here for people who want in now... no regrets here at all
Still a Gunfire Games fan ;)
