    Idk why everyone hates Darksiders III, but for me it's a very good game. Switch version is also pretty solid, graphics are ok and fps is stable

Thanks to the brute fights with the normal and larger enemies and also the atmospheric staging will convince many fans and newcomers. The storyline is decent and gets you pleasantly through the title. Although some elements in the game take some getting used to, you'll get used to it after a while and get along well with it. In addition, many expansions are included in the new version for the Nintendo console. If you can handle a few minor flaws in the game's balance, Darksiders 3 is a really entertaining game on the Nintendo Switch.… Expand

    The Darksiders latest entry has finally meandered its way to Switch to join its brothers, and the results in this case are more mixed than its predecessors. Carrying on the story as the third of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, this time around you’ll be taking on the role of Fury, adding a little distinction for being the lone female of the bunch.

Carrying on the story as the third of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, this time around you’ll be taking on the role of Fury, adding a little distinction for being the lone female of the bunch. More agile than her brother War from the original in the series, and having a different flow of combat from her brother Death in the sequel, traversal using her whip to swing around and more technique-driven combat are what drives this entry. Unfortunately, also moreso than its predecessors, this iteration feels like it is pushing the limitations of the Switch a bit harder, showing some cracks visually and in terms of performance at times, though if you’re game they’re not so bad that they can’t be worked with. While I do appreciate the level design, feeling absolutely full of nooks and crannies to distract yourself with some exploration, the lack of a map is also both odd and, at times, aggravating as it is easy to get lost and burn time simply moving around. It’s a bit of an uneven entry, but for fans of the series it should at least prove to be a good enough time, assuming you don’t have the opportunity to enjoy it on another platform.

    Darksiders 3 is a game with no personality in combination with mediocre gameplay and mechanics, a definitely forgettable experience. Along with the poor gaming experience, the Nintendo Switch version makes several graphical concessions that don't reflect on good performance.

    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. But honestly, the game is so shallow that that’s really what you need to know about it. Darksiders III is fun in small bursts, but also very shallow, and the more of it you play, the shallower it feels.

    This version could certainly benefit from some additional content, but most of all its technical performance falls below the expected threshold, with frustrating moments becoming too frequent as the screen gets more populated. While it's commendable that the game's entire content was transported to the Nintendo Switch, its execution ends up harming the overall gameplay experience.
