Great game, pretty much Darksiders on speed. Everything is improved. Better VA (though I liked War's voice more), great music, improved combat, much better RPG aspects, great art style (yes the textures aren't HR, just like the first game), bigger and better designed world, good story/atmosphere.
This is how a sequel should be done, take the original game as a basis and improve everything. I'll buy this one.
Didn't they say they'd add a FOV option? Or am I thinking of another game?

War's voice was a bit cheesier but I liked it anyway. Michael Wincott as Death sounds much more natural but still badass though. And yeah i agree with all you mention about the game being an improvement over the first one so far. What I'm really enjoying is the new climbing/wall walking/bouncing stuff.

You thinking Borderlands 2 for that FOV slider
I agree, the game is really good but it doesn't change the fact that it's sloppy port. Mouse scroll not working in menus, fucking annoying camera that autocenters and lowers itself or Death screen in inventory taken straight from PS2... Glad I didn't buy it, 'cause I would be pissed for receiving such poor port.

Does anyone use all that DLC stuff? Looks so cool, but such things usually break balance. |
not if you play on Apocalypse difficulty - you can look cool and still hava a challenge

Noobish question, but where IS Gorewood? The map icon does nothing and there are areas I can't reach further into the Crag. I just want to make sure I'm not missing something, since you reckon you beat him at Lv1 (hell, when I first fought Thane I was already lv2..)
Thanks!

Or was it level 2? Just after I got the first ability (the dash) anyway. You know the flooded stairs where you find the first page of the booklet? Go underwater and you'll find Gorewood.

Is it me or does the jumping/exploring parts remind me of Prince of Persia?

YES, this is Darksiders 2 . First game this year that makes me wanna explore more and more and more, the god damn gameplay is awesome, regardless of the camera problems and yada yada yada, that's bullshit for me, it's a great game overall, I'm loving every single bit 'til now. I'm still exploring around, I swam with Death for like half an hour already, I just enjoy the way he's swimming, that whirlwind-dash is badass . But it's just me maybe.

I got my first crash beacuse my GPU overheated. Apparently vsync doesn't work via CCC either. Any other options to force it?

Camera is fine here, but I would like to know where I can find some sort of config file.

AMD enforces some Microsoft policy for DirectX (Or so I've read, I don't know.) and as such without third party tools (I don't remember it's name unfortunately, not Rivatuner or those other GPU oriented tweak programs.) so those options (tripple buffering and Vsync) are only valid for OpenGL.
Which is silly.
