Its fast and mashy combat is certainly more than decent (and much heavier on dodging this time around), but it can get both repetitive, but mostly surprisingly cheap, with many enemies being able to deal annoyingly large amounts of damage just because the dodge move occasionally didn't work when needed, with death sending you way back to slowly return into the fray on foot. So, it all boils down to this: is Darksiders III a fun action title? Weeeeell… yes and no.
In other words, shut of your brain, enjoy the cheesy/cool plot, and start slaying, since all this talk about the escaped Seven Deadly Sins and whatnot is nothing more than the excuse players need to start killing big bad monsters. Of course, this just the dressing on top of all the hacking and slashing.
Is it a good story? Well, on one hand it's just another fantasy tale about demons vs angels, and the humans who are once again caught up in the conflict, but on the other hand it's also better than what came before, mainly because of Fury, who aside from being an enjoyably arrogant and war hungry gal, she has an actual character ark *gasp* with the twists and turns of the plot being a bit harder to guess this time around. After following the slightly parallel adventures of War and Death, the threequel follows the lady of the group the warrioress known as Fury, whose story is - sadly - one more parallel one. Darksiders revolves around the endless war between Heaven and Hell, with players taking the role of the Angel and Demon hybrids known as the Nephilim - more specifically, the only survivors of their race: the Four Horsemen.
