That was actually bretty cool from their part.Most companies give you a discount at best for the upgrade if you have the original

nope, gotta head to work in half an hour, fuck me

THQ Nordic seem pretty based lately.

Is this remaster good, is there a comparison with the original version? Hope this is not shit like all those other remasters lately.

Is it just the same game with better graphics or did they actually improve the gameplay in some way?

from the store page

Support for up to 4k video output resolution

Doubled all the texture resolutions

Re-rendered all cutscenes in high quality

Rendering improvements and rework

Better shadow rendering quality

Post processing effects

Optimized framerate

Wide Variety of Graphic Options (FOV, Postprocessing effects, Anti-Aliasing, Texture Filtering, Windowed/Fullscreen, etc.)

Steam Trading Cards

Native Steam Controller Support

Yeah I just saw that and it seems pretty nice, but the Bioshock and Batman Remasters probably talked their page up too, yet screenshot comparisons showed the art style and lighting completely fucked.

Are there any side by side comparison images or videos?

I am installing right now anyways, always nice to find a free game in your library.

>21 gigs

Fuck, original is just under 10, this is over double the size. Gonna take me 8 hours to install according to steam.

should I finish skyward sword or play this instead

skyward

I hated the original. I'm not going to play the same shitty game with slightly prettier graphics.

Had -zero- idea that this had come out. Have Deathfinitive Edition too. Gonna be a fun weekend.

I originally played this on the 360. I got the pc version in a humble bundle I think and replaying it on pc at a decent resolution has been on my to do list for a long time now. This is a nice suprise I didn't even know it was in the works.

But I still have too many damn games to play

i bought it in PS4 two weeks ago , now got it for free ... fuck me.

I'm playing it now, just beat Tiamat.

So far the only issues I could find is that the music during cutscenes is inexplicably low and it doesn't save my keyboard when I quit.

Other than that it's pretty good

Basically this without the hating part. I'm just not interested in playing through a whole game again just because it received a major patch that faggots call a "remaster", free or not

God I hated that boss battle

It's not as bad as I remembered it

For some reason the sandworm sticks out in my mind as really annoying

Does this mean they'll be picking up the series again?

>40-100 fps on a fucking RX480.
>Fags with 950s locking 60.

We got cucked this time.
i hope they fix it.

are these games worth getting?

Yeah they're pretty fun if flawed hack n' slash/puzzle/action-adventure games.

Right now they're on sale for 9 euros where I live, which is a pretty good deal for 40 hours worth of combined content

Only if this sells well

I have the deathnitive edition, csn I get this one to check it out?

Playing this now. What do I think of it?

Considering getting this on XBOX ONE I just have one question: can I invert the Y axis on the rail shooting segment this time around?

Yep. Darksiders 2 was released just before the "all games are open world now" fase, but it's good enough for a sequel, and it improves on a lot of aspects. It's repetitive though, a lot of fetchquesting but the style and story more thank make up for it.
Darksiders is a fun Zelda clone, one of the better ones.
They're like playing 90's Dark Horse comics, if that makes any sense.

This is no place for a horse.

Yup, lubing up my ass for a DS3 announcement soon

>like playing 90's Dark Horse comics
Exactly this, and dark horse used to be awesome back then (just think of Witchblade & Darkness)

Will it be Pestilence or Famine next?

Well, I mean, it's 2016, so Fury is a given, what with the current "STRONG WOMYN PROTAGONIST" trend. Pic related. I'm ok with this. Fury is bae.

Either that or back to War.

Or back to War, w/ other horsemen playable in co-op dungeons.

Or maybe something GTAVish.

Why are people saying this game is like Zelda? It's literally nothing like it.

I just finished this game, FUCK

How about you play past the first 10 minutes of the game

I've been playing for 3 hours and I stand by what I said, now are you going to elaborate as to what is so similar about them?

youtube.com/watch?v=Y83QR4RW1bc

The remaster looks pretty good. I just hope the PC port is good and not horrible like with all recent PC ports of remasters.

The port is just fine, I have no complaints so far.

Thanks for posting this. I got this game years back in a humble bundle and was always curious about it, but once I found out it was a Zelda clone I was immediately put off.

LoZ is a trash tier series with 0 good games in it. Maybe Darksiders will actually be good.

They already have considering they've all but confirmed it. We just don't know WHO is exactly working on the game because Nordic, or THQ Nordic these days, gets studios to develop games.

>free HD updates for previous owners
>Darksiders 3 apparently n the works
>even Battle Chasers is getting a game

Life is good.

It's a Zelda game with a less manly protagonist
>Someone tells you to get the three McGuffins
>Travel to dungeon
>Complete puzzles and fight enemies within the dungeon to get to the dungeon item
>Fight mini boss to get item
>Complete puzzles and fight enemies within the dungeon to get to the boss
>Defeat boss with the dungeon item
>Repeat a few more times
>Bring McGuffins to the temple of time
>Enter second half of the game where you'll be doing more of the same

Is the Harvester in Warmastered?

Not sure why they keep remastering older shit, but no complaints here. I don't know when or how I got Titan Quest, but I noticed I had the Anniversary Edition recently in my library and have been playing it.

I have Darksiders Warmastered Edition, but not Darksiders II Deathinitive edition.

Why is this?

They're building a good reputation, I imagine. And re-selling them on current consoles.

It has the exact same game design as TLOZ.

>overworld connecting to a bunch of elaborate dungeons
>dungeons consist of puzzle solving, combat, and a big bossfight at the end
>you acquire a new gadget in every dungeon giving you new abilities to progress
>gadgets like the hookshot and the boomerang

It changes some parts of this design by having a more freeform style of combat like god of war instead of the z-targetting combat of Zelda, the third person shooter sections, and the star fox like section, but Darksiders is largely made using the Zelda formula. You even acquire new hear... I mean skulls after you beat a boss.

>but not Darksiders II Deathinitive edition
You need to have ALL the DLC or season pass for DS2 in order to qualify for free Deathfinitive Edition.

games runs like ass on my AMD card
Disappointing cause i was really hyped

>playing games older than two years

I'm getting solid 60 FPS on high on my old-ass HD 5750
this could have something to do with drivers, because I last updated them over two years ago since it's now considered a "legacy card"

I wish they would just replace the old version of the game in my library instead of giving me two.

I can't even remove it from my account manually because my original purchase is tied to the second version.

Just hide it.

literally dungeons with items needed to solve the puzzles in said dungeon and kill the boss to move forward

>Sonyggers that desperate for PS4 games they buy anything they can without thinking or researching

Why are you not playing Bloodborne for the 1856th time user?

Why did 2 had to do this fucking dumb MMORPG equipment shit. I don't want to waste time comparing swords because one might have +.02 anus muscle strength.

Damn son, you sound triggered as fuck.

Then don't. The game's still action-adventure, not an RPG.

You got it for free because you own the game, numbnuts.

I don't get it, everyone and their mother already had this game. It's been at 1€ on every sale, in humble bundles etc.
Who the fuck would make a remaster and give it free to everyone

hol up I thought they went bankrupt

What's going on?

Why is the Orcs Must Die character on this picture? What game?

Possibly implementing the new features was so simple that even potentially meager sales were enough to justify the expense. Possibly it's an attempt to gauge consumer interest in the franchise. Possibly it was just a bad decision.

Nordic Games bought the Darksiders IP (among others) when THQ went under, and rebranded themselves as THQ Nordic.

Yeah, I saw the post describing the new features, it's literally just "copy pasted a block of code to add bloom and ENB shaders, enabled some options and uncompressed the textures"

Could just have been a patch really, but still pretty cool

does this actually work?? ds2 deathinitive was abandoned

I might replay it.
Darksiders 1 is my favorite Zelda game since Majora's Mask.
Darksiders 2 is donkey dick though.

Your fucking mom is donkey dick. DS2 is better than 1 in every possible way.

What? DS2 deathfinitive has been out for over a year

yes it came out and still has huge bugs to this day. nordic abandoned support for it a month later, the latest patch (november 2015) was a beta patch that barely fixes anything was left in beta.

I loved the desert levels.
Especially the part with he big gun. Should have had that for more parts in the game.

ah ok, never seen any

Nice detail. Very nice.

>CA

fucking hell, is there an at least an option to turn it off?

What bugs?

War is a relatable character with an A+ voice actor.
Death is a cuck.

Adding Diablo style loot drops to the game did nothing for me.

There's no chromatic aberration in my screenshot?

yes there is. there's blue fringing on the left side wall, under the arches right above the minimap, and the arches in background. its applied around the periphery of the frame along with vignetting.

Ahhhh, don't remind me that there isn't a third let alone fourth game.

As silly as these edgy Zelda clones with cruahzy elements were, I kinda liked the lore and artstyle.

Supposedly Nordic is working on the third as we speak

To be fair, Darksiders is hideously ugly to begin with so there's not much to ruin in that area.

It's not chromatic aberration, dummy. There's no sign of red anywhere there.

zoom in on the leftmost part of the screenshot.

Those are just the colors of the textures. Grasping at straws much?

I want a Famine one so bad.
Imagine literally starving enemies to death in seconds during battle.
Pestilence would be more of a shooter I guess.

>the video folder alone is 10 GB
why would you even

no, there is clearly blue on the left and red on the right. shit game 0/10 will remove from account

>What bugs?
Go watch a speedrun of the game.

its there dude

it's almost 2017
this doesn't look like ds2 deathinitive

It's DS1, user linked the wrong webm.
you are retarded.

I bought it on PS4. The audio is horribly desynced in cutscences on the regular PS4. Kind of pisses me off.

Why is that bad? It's not game breaking. No one will ever figure out how to do that without prior knowledge.

How did they figure it out then?

>you are retarded
Is he? Cause that's full blown CA.

By deliberately trying to break the game.

7th gen third person games all have issues with audio mixing for some reason.

How is he retarded? I don't think CA is what you think it is.

What are you talking about nigger, the other horsemen are Strife (a dual wielding shooter whose guns from DS1&2 belong) and Fury (a waifu with a whip)

>you are retarded.
No u

All these graphical updates would be enough to get me to replay a game I gave a shit about.

Which Darksiders isn't. One 100% is enough for me, famalam.

Why are the biblical horsemen seen as conquest, war, famine and death? Here are the actual verses :

>I watched as the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals. Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, “Come and see!” I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest. ( Revelation 6:1-2)
>When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come and see!” Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make men slay each other. To him was given a large sword. ( Revelation 6:3-4)
>When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see!” I looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, “A quart of wheat for a day’s wages, and three quarts of barley for a day’s wages, and do not damage the oil and the wine!” (Revelation 6:5-6)
>When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, “Come and see!” I looked and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine, and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth. (Revelation 6:7-8)

The first two are indeed conquest and war, the third one has a balance and talks about wages. Looks more like the jew rider to me.
And it's Death and Hades (they) who are refered as famine and pestilence (plague). So I have no idea where the "3rd rider is famine" and "1rst is pestilence" comes from.

first one is conquest, obvious
second is war, obvious
fourth is death(and hades), he's literally named

only the third is up to debate
