Darksider II - PC Review

Hey Every Body I'm Gonna Give you guys a complete Review On DarkSiders II.Those who have played Darksiders have pretty  much the idea what Darksiders is all about If you haven't its highly recommended Hack n' Slash Action-Adventure  with a great artwork style visuals and gameplay.Lets see if DEATH is as much as Bad Ass like WAR....Lets Take a Look...........

Story....

Story in Darksiders II may seem pretty linear to you but don't get fooled as it goes deep and sinister.In game Death is set out on a journey to clear his brother War's name for bringing premature appocalypse and ending the kingdom of humans.the game Begins with Death reaching out for Crow Father for his unravelled secrets to find a way for reincarnating Humans and the secret lies with the Tree of Life.....But without giving away too much and spoiling the fun for fans and who it might intrigue Darksiders II Literally expands its horizon from original game as you Travels to Different Realms and uncover mysteries and conspiracies.

The Journey Begins Here

Gameplay....

This game is a classic Hack n' Slash action adventure with many RPG element like customizing armours and weapons and talismans which didn't featured in Original Game.Addition of RPG element really increases the replaybility of game giving tons of extra game hours by providing a great open world and dungeons.Its got a big and surprisingly well designed world which i personally didn't expected  as creating a huge game map without rehashing repetetive levels even the dungeons are well designed and identical.

Combat is top notch

                                              

                                           Combat in the game is beautifully designed  with great artistic textures(as expected) here you have two weapon slots Primary which is Scythe(it only features scythe as it is the identical weapon of death but you'll get plenty of options between different type of scythes) and Secondary weapon includes bucklers,arm blades,gauntlets,claws,hammers,maces,glaives & axes featuring heavy and slow type which you can combine to form Hell Blazing Combos(pun intended), Combat system really feels comfortable as you can perform lightening fast small attack or face off with slow but deadly smashes with heavy weapons where gamers can cook up plenty of strategies if you think this kick ass then don't even get me started on Death's magic abilities which costs wrath(similar as original Darksiders) but its much more fluid and and can be performed with physical attacks and give em the power of The Reaper in a perfect flow.In original game War was like a tank built to take heavy damages and block up attacks but Death is more agile and fast he can't block but have a pretty nice dodging system(as they say offence is the best defence) not only this Death also have a fare amount of gears & equipment like Redemption(His brother strife's gun) , Death grip (for covering more distances while wall running or climbing),soul splitter,Phase walker,Void Walker(just like Darksiders 1 where you can create portals to travel from one point to other),Death also has acrobatic skill like wall running,pillar climbing..etc.As its a versatile combat game it has certainly given a wide variety of enemies which can give you a pretty good challenge as the game is part RPG enemies can defined by their level  so players have to create some strategies while facing higher level enemies,Speaking of which Boss fights in the game seems splendid as there are wide varieties of different bosses and you just cant kill every boss with just facing up directly the tactics also comes into play for different bosses.The voice acting in game feels pretty good but nothing Phenomenal like Original game.
The also has a few bugs which might hinders the flow of game some times like while entering and exiting any conversation or the customization menu the game freezes for a few seconds its not a Buzz kill but it feels annoying at time.

Boss Fight with Basileus

Death has Many Acrobatic abilities

Visuals/Graphics....

Reaper form is Amazing

Visuals in the game have great artistic touch from Combat to Opening a door have an feel of great artwork and the Rider Himself(Death) has a keen work of texture and every detail feel in his armour set and weapon feel detailed Apart from great sense of artwork and representation ,the game lack the visuals blisstering your eyes nothing which will bring High End PC's to knees this game be easily played in a mid ranged pc's having a solid frames other than that i kinda missed dynamic cut scenes which was one of the highlight of the original game , if you ignore it then game has to offer variety of both artistic and detailed environment and characters.

Final Words.....

I personally loved the game its a polished game with  beautiful textures engaging story and a top notch gameplay and combat it could easily be said it is one of the Best Hack n' Slash  game i've ever played apart from a few minor bugs it is a must buy game For both RPG fans and Hardcore action loving gamers.

Just like Death Every Game has Pros & Cons

 Pros-Beautiful textures and artworks,Addictive gameplay with top notch combat and intensive story

Cons-Minor bugs may be annoying at times,it lacks the Dynamic and dramatic cut scenes or conversations, nothing dynamic on visuals 


From my Side it Goes   8.5/10
