This is why I’m so glad the game has been re-released for current gen systems, because it’s given me time and perspective to realize that Darksiders II isn’t anywhere near as bad as I first thought it was.įor one thing, even if the pan flute-heavy score in the first area is a little grating, it’s not nearly as bad as I remember it being. I played it for a short time, didn’t like it at all, and traded it in. As I remember it, the very, very early stages of the game put me off, with the rolling green hills and flute-heavy score giving me far too much of a Lord of the Rings vibe. I got it back when it first came out on PS3 in 2012, and I made the mistake of playing it immediately after finishing the first Darksiders. The first time I played Darksiders II, I hated it.
