Sorry for posting too late on this thread....been busy playing Darksiders II and Deus EX on my laptop! .

No problem lol 

So which Deus EX are you playing the original? 

I quite liked the two Darksiders games despite their flaws, it's really a pitty we will likely never see a sequel. 

Playing both the original and HR at the same time. Doing full Stealth/hacking playthroughs on both, (Realistic difficuly on Deus Ex, Give me Deus Ex on HR), and they're both damn fun to do. 

I enjoy the Darksiders games mostly for their story actually (it's a pretty interesting BD-like story), but they're pretty simple when it comes to the gameplay. Darksiders II even more so, with it's RPG approach. Just get some Health Regen weapons, max Crit % and Crit damage % and you're pratically invulnerable. Pretty game breaking.

I never really had the patiance for pure stealth games myself, I think that is why I gave up on Dishonoured.

I like the comic book stories of the Darksiders games as well, full of pulpy goodness. The gameplay was chalanging if enough for my meger skills (on hard) lol.

The first Darksiders game was actually challenging on the highest difficulties (especially on Apocalyptic), but you can't really have difficulty levels with stats that recover your health on every single hit that you do on Darksiders II.

At level 22, I have 85 % crit on my Scythes and 300% crit damage. I usually hit for 2.5 to 3K, even on Stage III Crucible, and with 20% HP regen, I recover between 500 to 600 HP per hit. Doing the Flipsaw technique, that's about 3K HP recovered, almost a full bar. It's basically a full on invulnerability.

I get what the developers were trying to do, since they wanted to convey the feeling of Death being much more powerful than War, but that always has it's own risks.
