Because there’s not really much to the story of Darksiders II as you’re mostly running around doing chores for random overlords, demons, giants, etc. But, um, it didn’t register as a proper defeat because he never pulled the land to him… So I had to restart the game until, on the fifth time fighting him, he died in the right spot and I could proceed.Īnother glitch occurred as I was rounding up Judicator, one of the three Lords of the Dead Court you have to win over and blahblahblah that’s not really important. The other two times, he didn’t pull the land to him, so I kept fighting him in the same way and figured, “OK, this is it!” That was until he kept falling into the lava and eventually died, which I thought was great because it saved me some health potions. Two out of the four times I fought him, Samael brought the land closer to him, but he then beat the living shit out of me because he suddenly became terribly overpowered. The thing is, that last portion of the fight didn’t always go as planned. Whether you’re quick to hit the action button or not, he then destroys the bridge and pulls part of the level close to him, which brings you to the next part of the battle.Upon attacking Samael, he’s supposed to throw you back onto the bridge, where you have to hit an action button before he hits you.At a certain point the fight, you can cross a bridge to attack Samael as he sits in his throne.You’re telling me I’m the only person who had to repeat the second-to-last boss fight five times because of a glitch that kept happening? For those who want to know, I had to keep fighting the Samael character because of an extremely annoying glitch that happened like this: It’s ridiculous to think that this title got through all of the appropriate testing stages without certain things being fixed. Although Nordic Games picked up the torch that same year, it doesn’t seem like anything has been done to repair what is a very, very broken game.Īlright, maybe I’m exaggerating by calling it “very, very broken,” but I dealt with headaches that I don’t think any gamers should have to experience when playing the final version of a fucking product. And I didn’t even get the game until this past December (2014)! You would think that there would be some patches or something put into effect to fix the issues within the game.īut you’d be wrong-probably of issues with its first publisher, THQ, which closed its doors in 2013. The game was released three months later (in 2012) on the Wii U compared to the PS3 and Xbox 360 and it still arrived with plenty of bugs. However, that’s also why I was so enraged by Darksiders II. That being said, I’ve strayed from buying games like that on release day because I’ve learned a lesson from all the bullshit others have dealt with. Now, I have to make something clear: the bugs and glitches I experienced in Darksiders II probably weren’t as bad as those experienced by day-one adopters of, say, Assassins Creed Unity. It may not be up there with, say, the anger I felt when I ripped off the packaging of Battle of Olympus as a youngster, but there’s a certain rage that I felt playing Darksiders II that I’m having trouble getting over. I put “likely only” in parenthesis because even though I enjoyed playing it quite a lot, it’s also one of the most frustrating gaming experiences I’ve had in my lifetime. Well, it turns out that Teddy was right, as I thoroughly enjoyed my 20-hour (or so) initial (and likely only) playthrough of the second Darksiders. Also, I have to give a shout out to Teddy Taylor for hipping me to the existence of Darksiders II, which he said I’d enjoy based on my love for the Legend of Zelda series because the gameplay is somewhat similar. But as it turns out, I don’t really need to play the predecessor anyway, so I’m fine with having skipped over it. I went into playing the second Darksiders without playing the first, mostly because I didn’t have any access to the first game (it’s not available on the modern consoles I own, being the PS4 and Wii U).
