What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
- The story is just amazing IMO, you're a horseman, you're one of the 4 horsemen who serve as the law, balance and order between Hell, Heaven and Earth.
Basically what makes Darksiders so good is the gameplay.
Art style is maybe the thing i liked the most - it's cartoon-like, uses lots of color, has all these little details like ash floating mid-air, and spider webs hanging out of windows.
Sound design is great!
- Controls: -Being a console port, this game was clearly designed to be played using a gamepad rather than the mouse and keyboard.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 3 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
