Um prequel bem fraco que não agrega em nada a todo da franquia, só é interessante por finalmente vermos strife em ação. O genesis no título se refere a mostrar como o capeta corrompeu a humanidade nesse universo.

06/10.

Controls are clunky and the "asymmetric" style didn't quite work for me.

I do really like what they do with the Darksiders series and change up the games every entry, AND that they actually got to make every Horseman playable. I do find this isometric take very boring though, the gameplay just feels very non compelling.

En lo poco que he avanzado con la historia me ha gustado, la interacción entre Lucha y Guerra es divertida, el gameplay es bastante divertido y te da varias formas de jugar y combinar ataques y combos gracias a que podemos usar a ambos hermano, pero también haciendo uso de la pantalla dividida podremos divertirnos con algún amigo o pareja.

Played this with @UrThirdCousin, and had a blast. I've been a fan of this series since the second game came out, and I got to introduce him to it as well as play alongside him. Also playing as Strife was long overdue. The top down perspective is a breath of fresh air for the series, and I wouldn't be upset with other spinoffs done the same way. I'm still waiting on a solo Strife game, and I will not give up hope.

Bought this to play online with a friend, thought it was okay but ended up walking away from it.
