Started playing the game on Friday and I really was afraid of the game being nearly the same as FC2. But as it appears I was wrong, totally wrong.
The game really is amazing in every single point (as for me). Stunning graphics, dense atmosphere and a deep and nice story line with authentical characters makes this game (for me) the best release in 2012.
Below some Screenshots I made during gameplay and uploaded on Picasa (1920*1080 DX11 all maxed out).
*** CONTAINS CHARACTER SPOILER ***
I agree on most of your points. I love the story and as you said, the characters feel like they would exist in the real world. Vaas has earned a place in my top 5 villains of all time. As a side note, Vass' voice actor, Michael Mando, is phenomenal. It's a crime against gamers that the only other game he did voice work in was Shaun White Skateboarding. I have two complaints about the game, however. For a game that's been described as "Skyrim with guns" there sure don't seem to be too many of them. Guns, i mean. Not Skyrims. That'd be silly. Also, while the character's look amazing and the character animations are top notch, I really don't think the environments look that fantastic. There are some things that look awesome, like the way leaves realistically glow from the light behind them but otherwise I'm a bit disappointed.
"Skyrim with guns" Never liked that definition. But I agree. There could be a little more guns implemented in the game. On the other hand I think it would be silly for Jason to be able to use every single gun type as a mere civilian. But hey. The only thing I use is the sniper and my knife^^.
I totally agree on Vaas character. He's just like, in his behaviour, Joker from Batman. Like Joker from the woods. Totally nuts, but knows what he wants.
In the end everyone has it's own opinion. Thanks for sharing
Started playing 2 days ago on PC due to Steam only "releasing" the game 4 days after the official THQ release. Note: I bought a hardcopy on 16th and couldn't play until 20th.
My first impressions after 2h of gameplay:
The atmosphere and the story are just brilliant and after 15 minutes I was just like: Oh my god! *insert spoiler here* Combined with the amazing soundtrack I was just like: WOW!
Due to the more agile character known as Death, the fighting, jumping, climbing etc. are more fluent and look amazing.
The only negativ thing about the game on PC are the graphics. Fortunately THQ already announed an improvement patch which includes additional graphics settings other than just resolution an V-Sync.
I'm really looking forward getting ahead in the story.
PS: for everyone who played Darksiders 1, this game is an absolutely must-have.
