Review: Darksiders Warmastered (Nintendo Switch) | Digitally Downloaded

Review by Harvard L.:

"If Darksiders on its original release was intended to be an entirely straight-faced rendition of the biblical apocalypse, I still can’t help but feel like it’s a tongue-in-cheek joke in 2019. The game’s grimdark setting takes a walk on the absurd side – with hulking stone golems, blood fountains, outrageous finisher moves and schlocky dialogue that will surely rouse a chuckle. It’s dated for sure – it was developed by an in-house studio of the old THQ (not the same company as THQ Nordic), if you remember back to those days – but its robust gameplay mechanics have stood the test of time better than you’d expect."
