Not that impressive on a technical level but I'm a sucker for cel-shading so it looks good in my eyes.

Ghoul4826d ago

dude sorry to say that but this aint no cellshading at all.
cell shading is zelda spiritt tracks, fat princess etc.

cell shading is a shading based on its geometry bounderies and colored flat around the edges in clusters.

this is just a dc and marvel like render style, no cellshading at all

SasanovaS19874826d ago

screenshots cannot do justice to this type of graphic deisgn. its the fluidity and color that will ultimately define how good this game looks, and i have no doubt in my mind it will be a beautiful game to look at.

TheMutator4826d ago

is me or look worst than the first?

Ghoul4826d ago

with worse your saying that the first looked bad, but it didnt.

actually i liked the first in both in terms of style and story, and if i have enough free sparetime im pretty sure ill play the second too.

The graphics certainly look worse than the first. Seems they have taken the "cartoony" approach in the graphics department. I'm not a fan of that :(

This is why I don't buy video games anymore. I have a huge Steam backlog and developers are gracious enough to offer their products for free. Fortnite is free, Darkness is free, lots of good free games. Thanks Humble

masterfox2243d ago

Nice thanks for the heads up.

I had a blast with the 1st one. It was perfect. The 2nd not that much, was pretty forgettable tbh and the cell shading, although beautiful, was not my kind of tea

That said, if they make a 3rd one they should make it a bit closer to the original's...vibe and looks.

kevnb2373d ago

Its not even made by the same team, I hate when publishers do that.

veicht2372d ago

I still enjoyed 2, it still kept some of the neat things from the first one. Having said that, the first is considerably better, I'd rather the 3rd (somehow) end up being made by machine games which seems to be where a fair amount of the darkness/butchers bay devs ended up.

chris2352373d ago

are we talking switch ports again or why is another lastGen game in the headlines?

ctrlxthroat2373d ago

I'm still hoping for a pc rerelease of the original.

Venoxn4g2372d ago

I personally enjoyed this one more than first game (even though I think first one is good too)

The Darkness: A Greek tragedy for the video game age - G4@Syfygames

Matt Ferguson from G4@Syfygames writes "When I think of tragic love stories and star-crossed lovers, I can't recall a more heart-wrenching example than Jackie Estacado and Jenny Romano from The Darkness. What begins as a romantic story between two people from very different worlds ends abruptly in a horrific tragedy, drawing many parallels from the works of Classical Greek tragedians and epic poets."

I agree! That was a great game with well played characters.

Kallisti3007d ago

Still own a copy of both of them. The Darkness III on PS4/PC/XONE would be awesome.
