I think Death's executions are a clear example of his mastery of his powers. While War and Fury only use their Transformations as a last resort, Death had mastered quickly switching to his Reaper Form in order to swiftly gain the advantage.
I think it shows a clear difference in the personalities of the Horseman. War seems to kill in a way that's quick and effective to get what he needs quickly, with a tad of brutality, but Death always seems to kill in an almost artistic way. Like fatalities from MK. He makes sure they suffer.
@@kin4386 it’s his scythes. The way they Designed his primary weapon is close to if not perfect. So versatile quick and lethal. They can transform from her twin Sickles, to a full on double bladed scythe, to even using them as a boomerang. Plus death Utilizes His Primary weapon not only with such grace but with lethal purpose. Utilizing their power and his experience/ skill to their fullest. He is the most terrifying and lethal or the four horsemen and damn well he’s not afraid to show why. From throwing his scythes around like a boomerang or sawblades, to using them like a daggers or hooks to set up stylish and brutal executions that maximizes the amount of agony and pain that he deals to his foe the inevitable promise he Follows to whoever dumb enough to challenge him.
Calming yes, Supermassive Mother of all Constructs trying to squash you with an enormous hammer, or shoot homing mines on your ass. Very calm indeed! Such lovely scenery :P
Kinda sad though at the same time since Absalom wasn't really a "bad guy". He got corrupted because he felt so betrayed by Death, his own brethren. Death did the right thing though since the last bit of corruption would've surely taken Death as his host if he took the hand.
I cannot stress enough that I love all of these, they're all super satisfying and the range from masterful artistry to disrespectful brutality in how Death takes down his enemies is just. Chef's kiss. I especially love that they establish right away with the whole interaction with Crowfather in the beginning and the way he kills him, that this is not just a reskin of the same guy we played as in the first game. This guy is unhinged and merciless, honor be damned. But. 5:12. I could talk about this one in particular forever. Something about the choice to have Death in his ultimate form forego the use of weapons or magic and just *beat a lord of the dead into the fucking ground with his bare hands.* There is SO MUCH ABOUT THAT I LOVE. It is so BARBARIC and UNNECESSARY and DISRESPECTFUL and BRUTAL and it says so much about Death as a person that he does that to a guy whose only crime was talking a bit of shit on him and wasting a couple hours of his time. I just eat it up.
It's not as simple as the Lord being disrespectful. Death is tired of all the runaround he's been given, trying to save his brother, War. It hits its peak with the Scribe; "Where. Is. *The* *Key?* *WHERE* *IS* *IT?"* But this was our first big clue.
+Leo [STF1] Ahh ok. I suppose having 90% execution chance would make it pretty easy to do in one go. I don't hardly even remember doing any in my playthrough. It's like rare when you're given the chance in a normal playthrough.
@@silvey640 Agreed. Honestly I think the conter attack strategic style combat would suit war more. With Fury I wanted to see some carnage lots of splash, the more hp you lose the more damage and atack speed you gain kind of thing, she is fury after all. If you were to class them in simple terms I always saw War as a warrior, Death as a Rogue/assasin, Strife as a Ranger and Fury as a Berserker.
They should release an enhanced edition of Darksiders 3 with some tweaks, including the additions of these beautifully animated executions (on bosses too). Oh and Darksiders 4 with Strife
@@BlorbHunter it is pretty funny, I had to analyse it twice before I realised exactly what it was. It would be pretty funny, because this big menacing Reaper form would have these tiny little legs to carry his ominous form.
I don´t know the exact name anymore, but I upgraded the scythes to get the highest possibility for an execution. I think the scythes got arount 90% chances of an execution^^
Darksiders 2 gibt's oft genug bei Steam im Angebot, da könntest du dir den Season Pass (also die beiden anderen DLCs + ne Rüstung, die es sonst nirgends gibt) holen. Wären dann je nach Angebot um die 4-6€. Sie sind zwar nicht super lang aber doch gut gemacht und nicht einfach so dahingerotzt. Mir haben sie jedenfalls alle 3 gefallen.
I don't mind, go ahead 👍 I would however appreciate being mentioned in the description of your edit with a link to this original video 👍 Apart from that feel free to use footage from this video 💪
bro even I got one question for you...there's a scythe which has glowing green dot lights on it( almost like demon renders but has green lights ) and has a small bat's wing in the tip of it...it's not shown in this video but I'm sick of finding it's name...if you know, please help me🙏🙏🙏
Yes, you can. But you will have to mention me in the description with a link to this video. Aaaand at last a video response with the final video to this video would be nice^^
starwars i love this video but i have 2 things to say 1: i cant get finishers ;c my scythes one shot everything, so does my hammer xD and 2: what was that giant flame thing that fell into the lava!? i have not seen it and how do i get to it?
I maybe could tell you what you want to know. Can you give me the time these things appeared in the video? It has been years since I played Darksider 2 :D
Since this comment is two years old, you maybe know this by now, but if not, here are your answers. The giant flame "bird" is Bheithir, one of the side quest bosses, you have to slay for Thane. After getting the deathgrip, you must go to this little mini-dungeon between the main-overworld and the Lost Temple (you know, the mini-dungeon, where you first ride a construct.) There you have to go to the lowest floor, where you see a giant cave with only a small plattform in the middle with Bheithir flying around it. Access it with the death grip and wait for the boss to fly over, to start the fight. And the crown of the dead is a quest item you get by defeating the Soul Arbiter, who hides in a ten floor-deep labyrinth with fights in any room, so you have to need some patience (and a guide, if you don`t want to look for all the in-game hintscrools for the labyrinth.) It increases the gold you get from enemies significantly, but taht is pretty much about it.
I didn't remember how badass death was! Yeah, Kratos may be violent and Masterchief brave, Asura very aggressive and Jojo very smart. But, people, with Death we are on another level! No hesitations, no doubts, no regrets; yet, smooth combos, ultra-executions, splattish amputations. It doesn't matter how big or strong you are. Death is there for you, and you won't like it.
So he actually isn't allowed to use his normal weapon or full power, by the Charred Council's rules. Technically in order for him to reap souls, he needs their permission. The entire game's story was done without their permission, so he really only used it when he absolutely had to. Otherwise they would have known. He was a smith, and he kept the most powerful of his creations for himself.
@@ScreamingInSong it's not that the council will "know" he's using his power. The council deprived him of his power so wherever he is he can't use it at full power for example if you notice in the video when he uses his Reaper form he usually jumps high before transforming that's because his flight power is limited because of the council and even the time he can stay in that form is limited it's temporary
Hey danke für das super video. is bis jetzt die beste version die ich gesehen habe. Bitte mehr davon. Von Prototype 2 gibts auch keine komplette Version,
