Haydn Dalton, lead designer on Darksiders 2 at developer Vigil Games, has some interesting ideas for Darksiders 3 – if THQ decides to greenlight a sequel. If Darksiders 2 is successful, Dalton told VideoGamer, it's unlikely THQ would have Vigil shift development to another franchise.
Alex & Mike talk Biomutant, a game from Experiment 101/THQ Nordiq you likely have not heard of. While the AAA side of the industry tends to homogenization and imitative, cinematic presentation, “AA” games remain creative and innovative in 2021. Drawing on inspirations as varied as Dark Souls, third person shooters & kung fu cinema, Biomutant is Ratchet & Clank on acid, developed by a team of 20 people.

"Vigil Games may not be around anymore but their 2 Darksiders games really raised the bar for 3D action adventure games. Let's take a look at both titles' gameplay and worlds and see which one emerges victorious." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
Darksiders 1 is a complete game but it’s obvious with Darksiders 2 they ran out of budget after the Ice world and the game just becomes a poorly paced mess.
Please people buy this game.
First one was good but I waited till it wasnt full price.
Hate to burst your bubble THQ. Despite the heavy marketing, I very much doubt you'll hit the 4 million target. It's not the PS2 era anymore.
4 million is a lot to ask, even for a multiplat game. There are few games that reach it, and they have very heavy marketing well in advance. It doesn't look good for Darksiders 3, which is a shame since I love the first game and am getting the second one day one.
I'll help you Vigil by buying this game :D.
