If you’ve played the first two Darksiders games, you’re aware that those games are heavily rooted in both Legend of Zelda and traditional RPG gameplay foundations, from character progression to puzzles and dungeon designs. Fury is a little cheeky, and she’s undoubtedly ruthless, but she’s a protagonist you can get behind.

While the plot itself is largely whatevs, the game is fully voice acted, and it’s done so in admirable fashion, with solid performances all around. You play as Fury in what can be considered a somewhat forgettable story where you have to hunt down and defeat the Seven Deadly Sins. And Darksiders III is most certainly that. So I don’t get too hung up on the whole “this game isn’t all that original” thing, because what I want, first and foremost, is a good game that’s fun to play. It’s derivative of Soulslikes and even Bayonetta (to a simplified degree), but that’s not necessarily a problem. The game offers up challenging combat, great action, and a fun world. I first played Darksiders III back in 2018 on PlayStation 4, and I had a lot of fun with it. But those not-so-great thoughts still aren’t enough to deter me from saying that I truly enjoy what Darksiders III is and what it does for the series, even on Switch. Some are a little less great, particularly regarding the Nintendo Switch version of the game.

The majority are good thoughts - great thoughts, even. I have a lot of thoughts on Darksiders III.
