![]() I would approach a doorway or turn a corner and the game would freeze for about 5+ seconds. This would occur before boss fights and other big moments in the game. Oddly enough, some of the same issues appear in Darksiders III along with a few new ones.ĭarksiders III, at least on the switch has some odd freezing issues which I’m assuming are load pauses. The question I now ask is who was requesting all these changes? Darksiders and Darksiders II were by no means god’s gift to the genre, but in my opinion, their faults were not in the gameplay department, rather the bugs and hiccups spread throughout. This is another new mode that if enabled then your save will be deleted on death. I eventually did create a new save with classic controls and turned off nightmare mode which I completely forgot about. ![]() I found this extremely disappointing since I had already put in a good amount of time in my current save and really wasn’t looking forward to starting over. Upon doing some research, I discovered that this can be changed back to “classic” mode but you will have to start a new game as it cannot be changed in an existing save. This was definitely not the Darksiders that I remember and I have to admit it was a bit of a letdown. Unfortunately, by default, this is not possible and I found myself dying way too many times than I care to share. Like Fury, I’m impatient and enjoy making quick work of my foes. I am absolutely horrible at the “Soul” style of gameplay. Instead, we have a Dark Souls approach in which every attack needs to be strategically planned out or else you will be greeted to an early demise, and that’s what happened to me in abundance. This was nothing like its predecessors and no longer using the hack & slash combat system. As we know, there are no new internal enhancements besides the 64GB storage upgrade so the only game impacting change is the screen and if you own an OLED TV, you know it does wonders with color and brightness.Īs I mentioned, this is my first time playing Darksiders III and I instantly noticed something different about the gameplay. Shades, shadows, and light reflections really stand out compared to the original LCD switch screen. This screen’s brightness makes all these dreary dilapidated environments pop. So, this is where the new 7 inch OLED screen comes into play. The streets are filled with abandoned vehicles along with random items still on fire. Buildings are half blown out and barely standing. Visually post-apocalypse earth looks how one would imagine. Just like Darksiders and Darksiders II, the story is entertaining and will keep you interested in seeing how all this will play out. She will also need to save humans who have survived and bring them to a place called Haven. Fury’s adventure doesn’t just have her brutally destroying a variety of demons. Her job is to hunt down and re-capture the seven Deadly Sins who have escaped imprisonment and are somewhere on the post-apocalypse earth. She’s bored, impatient, and thrilled her time to shine has finally arrived. ![]() At least 90% of my gaming on the Switch is in handheld mode and I wanted to experience this horrid creature-infested world on the new vibrant OLED screen.ĭarksiders III tells the tale of Fury, a member of the four horsemen of the apocalypse. This is why I held off on reviewing this game until my Nintendo Switch OLED arrived. So here we are in 2021 and Darksiders III has been ported to my preferred portable gaming device. ![]() For whatever reason, I never picked up Darksiders III. The story was unique, and the combat was satisfying with creative level design. When thinking about some of my favorite hack & slash adventure games of last-gen, Darksiders and Darksiders II pop up in my head. ![]()
