is there any way to disable that camera returning-to-position movement? its annoying as fuck, worst camera control in a while. ALT+F4 for now.

also LOL @ changing resolution not in menus but after you actually start playing + restart on res change (wtf). zero detail settings, res and verctical sync. fuck, i almost pity those developers, derpelopers.


Wait till you play Dark Souls! You'll have newfound love for Vigil and their lazy ass ports.


yeah, unfortunatelly you`re probably right. anyway i dont really care bout gfx, doesnt look that bad - just wtf is this with that camera control, geez. didnt they event test it? how the fuck can you release a worldwide product like that? simple "automatic camera positioning" checkbox would be enough.


The official forums are full of negative opinions about quality of the port. There are some voices that THQ put press review version of the game on Steam. So let's wait and see Smile

It was probably asked somewhere in this thread but is playing Darksiders 1 necessary before playing DS 2 ? Am i going to be confused by teh story if i jump straight into II ? Granted im pretty sure this doesnt have an Oscar worthy story but i generally still like to follow it in games that have sequels.

Well it's not an impressive port, that's for sure, it's ugly and clunky and lacks any kind of configuration whatsoever (even though THQ/Vigil claimed you could change settings via INI, which turned out to be false.. they're encrypted) -- so perhaps it is a press release? Either way, the game is still pretty friggin' awesome.

@S.S.S

It's not "essential" to play the first game, no, but it's absolutely recommended since it's an excellent game Smile

At least it's the same release that RPS got based on the bugs and lack of features that they have pointed out.

Something is definetely fucked up. I can't use my Reaper form, I can't upgrade possessed weapons... WTF...

BTW, here's a screen of the game on my FXAA:

Some views (like the one at the end of the fort) are really great.

Apparently trying to equip higher than yours level weapons freezes the controls.

Goodnight everyone.

1. DirectX 9 textures are being used, which does not seem right.

4. Proper PC optimization. For a game using DX9 textures, it shouldn't have load times this long.

So my low fps issue was due to crossfire, like the first game (and it still does) it scales negative... 1 card gives higher fps then 2 Razz

Then get with the times and stop being so fuckin stupid as to have more than one GPU in your system! WTF!!? Crossfire/SLI has always been fucked up, always will, and driver support makes it ten times worse, when will folk ever learn? Rolling Eyes

What 'actual' good is it gonna do ya?, apart from your e-penis growing 2mm? Is the heartache really worth it? Crying or Very sad Twisted Evil

Finally installed it, what can I say, it's a (very) straight port just like the first one, but fortunately it doesn't affect the quality of the game, which is definitely high.

Fluid gameplay, more stuff to do, enjoyable graphics (I'm using the good ol' injector that I made for KoA: http://www.mediafire.com/?ypbmxwa8fo9a8k6 ), excellent music/sound effects and interesting story so far (only managed to play for one hour).

Some screens from the very beginning:

I always get a kick out of how those injectors manage to simultaneously crush blacks while making the rest of a scene either washed out or oversatured. It's quite impressive really.

Yup. Skyrim one is worst, so over saturated its just unreal, awful. I laugh at the 'before and after' screens, and say, hmm, I'll take 'before', and just not use it! lol Very Happy

Because when it works properly (wich in most cases it does), it made it close to a GTX670 for only a €130,- upgrade 1 year ago

.....or

Just save your monitor profile safely somewhere, load one that's not for yours (have a few beers first though), and enjoy the game in over saturated, edge enhanced shit that makes you think it looks better, when finished, load normal profile back...done Smile
