Well to be fair the first game did straight up use the Zelda dungeon structure, so it's understandable that the comparisons would be made.
But they did it all with their own flavour especially with artstyle, tone, setting, and combat (which takes elements from games like God of War/DMC). And Darksiders 2 adds some Diablo/Borderlands elements. They do copy elements from other games and remix them so it would be more acurate to say it was inspired by other games. But then again everything takes elements from things that came before.
The problem is when the fans of other games write Darksiders off as it's own game, that I don't understand. I mean it's not like it's a carbon copy or anything.
