Nice way of thinking there I must say,that way we are not too disapointed if a game doesnt live up to expectations.
Experiences from AC, NG2 and NGS2...I learned from my misstakes. Even though it looks very good now, doesnt mean it will stay that way in gameplay and balance when its out.
So I go with caution and awareness, not throwing money on games I know I wont play 1-2+ months once I buy it or how it will turn out.

Ah well, we will see.

I kinda agree on that,I wish there was more reaction of the enemy when it strikes with the sword,but oh well they are polishing up the game still maybe it will be better at release.

Holy shit at the gamespot video, amazing stuff.
So much customization in terms of weapons and such and powers, also a very very nice hit detection really feels like you are attacking with a gigantic sword which is awesome.

But I cant stop wondering why some of the moves are from other games.

Wings (GOW), air fast spin slash (GOW), grapple (DMC4 Nero), windmill shuriken (NG series)...and more, some of the moves are ripped off from other games.
Even his scythe move were he throws it around him alot of times is from Ninja Blade, quite a shame they took various moves from various games like if they couldnt come up with any move of their own.

But you know, sure its dissapointing to see that, but what this game offer from art, music, indepth customization for items and weapons, exploration, I forgive them.

But anyways, the gamespot video wow'ed me, making it a bit more sure for a purchase.

Well the WS its more akin to the Boomerang in Zelda the grapple too its more like the hook in Zelda as for the spin slash yeah it reminds me of GoW.

I also like the fact that the grapple hook if the enemy its really big it makes you come close to them and if it is small it makes them come to you.

It looks nice the weapon switching too,it willmake the combat fun.

Here is a nice article in Kotaku.

Well which Zelda are you talking about because NG had the windmill shuriken ever since NES first game.

But anyways, I dont care, as long as its good, just like how Dead Space was from RE4 (but much better).

Ocarina but yeah I know NG has it since the first,what Im saying is that they said that the inspiration was Zelda and Metroid for the exploration and various games for the combat.

This video alone gave me a hint of what the combos in chains could look like, and it looks very nice.

Yes I saw that earlier and for some reason I forgot to put it in here.

It looks very awesome man and Im glad they put it some time in the combat part of the game.

If you see in the Ruin icon there is like 5 little red bars,I bet they are for a little speed boost just like Ocarina of Time and the carrots,a nice homage to the one of the games that inspired Darksiders.

Yeah Alimo, they should shut up, or atleast be professional when talking.

Ah well, video was about the combat for me and it did wow, only video that has done that for Darksiders interms of gameplay.

I think it is because that palyer used War more fast and more deadly combining weapons and stuff.

Looks amazing but I want to see some puzzle solving too and maybe some exploration.

Damn it is so awesome!

They have nailed every trailer down from awesome appropriate music, fantastic narrator, great dialogue and very good editing.

The more recent videos I see the more I am deciding to get it.

Well I need videos of the gameplay as usual, reading impressions doesnt do it for me.
The only thing I need to know with this game is that if there is any reason to play it again.

But the combat video and some of the recent videos is making me buy it for sure.

Ah speaking of replayability in I read in a interview that it will take more than one playthrough to achieve something the person doesnt say because of spoilers but I think he is hinting at a new game plus or more quests after the game its done.

I still dont know what he meant though.

First 10 minutes and it looks so awesome insane,the voice acting,the music,the scale,the combat all looks very insane and awesome,I cant wait anymore.

Be aware of spoilers though its not too much of it though so its kind of safe to watch it.

I shall watch it and give my opinion later on, thx.

Edit: okay I saw it, has a very comic book like look of it, very nice.

But they IMO, really fixed the hit detection and the weapona attacks. Each attack with that sword and how the enemies react to it has a powerful impact and a great sound for it as well, very very good.

One thing I enjoyed was how the obliteration techniques was so damn fluid, reminds me of Ninja Gaiden 2/S2 combat, even though some of them has a button over their head, it was quick and badass with no further QTEs to finish it.

I just hope this game doesnt have the GOW/Dantes Inferno syndrome with QTEs.
One button is enough to activate the attack but thats it.

Anyways, I am really leaning towards a buy on this one, love the concept and artstyle and the voices are just awesome and the music is just right with its epic orchestra with choir in the background to have that nice mood to it.
