During a calm conversation, "At this point Id rather kill you than help you, council be damned" - Strife

[@ScourgePrimal]

I think Strife has been hanging out with the humans too much because I love this guy X3

[@ShawndaPrawn]

Ironically enough, this game is set shortly after the battle of Eden and the extinction of the Nephilim. At this point, the Human race was brand new and the game’s story ends with the Council culling humanity after Lucifer corrupted us with the Animus (I personally think this culling might have been the great flood in the story of Noah’s Ark, giving humanity a second chance after removing the worst of the corruption). You’re still right though. In Darksiders 3, Strife disguised himself as a Human and hid among us in Haven after the Apocalypse. Instead of revealing himself when Fury turned up, he instead got pissed at her dismissal of Humans and eventually inspired her to protect them at the end. It certainly seems Strife is the most human of the four.

[@shaansingh7629]

After War kills Astarte: "there... was nothing more to learn from her." Strife: "that was... whew War listen... about the things she said..." War: "whatever secrets she bore, I'd sooner hear them from your own lips." Strife: "someday, I'll tell you everything." War: "someday, so will I." That interaction is what let me know that deep down all the horsemen care for each other.

[@OsakaLover]

I had a lot of fun with Genesis, and I don't think it would have been nearly as interesting without Strife in it. Being the wise cracking, joke cracking, sassy son of a gun to go along with War's serious personality made for some really good moments between the two. I know the gameplay might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I think they did a good job for a spinoff title. Not saying it was perfect but they did try something different and I think it was fine.

[@littlelw319]

i hope there will be DS4 with Strife as the main character, but that sounds like a fleeting dream at this moment.

[@MusicLover2116]

@littlelw319 don’t give up hope yet! The Guys who made the game said they’d consider game 4 as a possibility if the game sold more than 100,000 copies, and keep in mind game 3 sold 71,000 copies in its first week! Furthermore, there were nearly six years between games 2 and 3, and Darksiders 3 was only released in 2018! I think there’s still hope!!

Oh, dude, YES. This is Darksiders Genesis, a spin-off of the main Darksiders series. It's criminally underrated hack and slash action RPG fun set in a fantasy world loosely based around Christian and related mythos (the main characters are the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse). DEFINITELY highly recommend trying it, especially considering how cheap you can get the complete remastered versions of the first and second games on any platform.

[@BenOlsberg1995]

I've heard criticism aimed at the Darksiders series for how mean spirited and edgy the main/recurring cast tend to be. Though I've never played any of the games, I have to say I think Strife would be a refreshing contrast to all the bitching I've heard about War, Death, and Fury. Again, despite never having played any of the games I still get enjoyment out of watching Strife's general mannerisms and the way he interacts with those around him. He's genuinely amusing and adds a welcome lightheartedness to so many of the scenes he appears in.

[@65firered]

Each of them grow throughout their respective games with most development in Fury. So really that criticism doesn't apply to the characters for the whole of each game.

[@ExceedProduction]

Not playing "The Good Guys" is a breath of fresh air. Darksiders caters to its niche and its perfectly fine that way. I am looking forward to the new title.

[@BenOlsberg1995]

@@65firered Yeah I have to agree. Again I don't know a ton about Darksiders or its lore, but a lot those who were overtly critical of the depictions of the characters presented within seemed to be deliberately glossing over pivotal moments of character development that I DID know about prior. Hell, in some cases they even seemed to deliberately take certain details out of context to make any of the horsemen seem that much worse. And that made hearing their points of view annoying at best. It's one thing to just not care for the way a character is or acts, but it's another thing entirely to outright ignore moments of improvement and still claim the characters "haven't grown".

[@Akigahdam]

strife lowkey feels like deadpool

[@Darth_Ausar]

the darksider community believes that the reason strife acts like this is because he hangs with kingdom of man more than the other 3 or he jokes because his depressed.

[@Violyte64]

@@Darth_Ausar I think it’s mostly a coping mechanism, given he’s like this way before humanity has this kind of humor or speech patterns. It could also very well be innate to his personality on some level. It’s very reminiscent of Deadpool or Spider-Man.

[@Violyte64]

They both wear a literal mask and a figurative mask, whereas War and Fury don't.

[@blueripper1558]

@Violyte64 I know but why

[@Violyte64]

@@blueripper1558 Usually in character design, a mask is there to signify that the character has something to hide. Strife and Death both want to distance themselves from their past identities so much that neither of them shows their face since they became Horsemen. At least, that's explicitly stated in Death's case, which is why he *removes* the mask at the end of the game when he revives humanity by sacrificing the Nephilim, thus righting the wrong he committed in a cosmic sort of sense. War and Fury don't seem to have that same level of disgust or guilt at their past actions. That sort of identity crisis just isn't there with them. There's no narrative reason to incorporate masks into their designs.

[@martialbrother5790]

I liked the story, but I don’t like top down games so much. They’ve should have it as third person. Like the other 3 games. Or with this game a first person since we’re playing a gunslinger.

[@lucasfraczek4320]

Hopefully we will since this was only a spin-off game and not a mainline entry for the most part, sure it has connections to the series but people aren't counting this as Strife's game. Once he gets his own game like War, Death, and Fury's games then Strife will truly shine.

I understand the need to differentiate the horsemen and not have them all be extremely serious and while it is growing on me a little bit it is quite jarring going from Wise Strife in DS3 to Witty Strife in Genesis. Unfortunately I think they leaned a little too much on the latter, his wittiness makes him too much of a cliche. The only thing making him unique from the other “witty gunslinger” characters is his backstory. I hope that they give us a transition of witty strife into wise strife if they still make him his own game. Don’t get me wrong keep a little of his charm but have him mature and become more wise, the seeds have definitely been planted with Genesis and his guilt for humanity’s suffering at Lucifer’s hands and hence why he acted to protect them in DS3

[@deadpool-mwtm6414]

I just wish they didn't give bait everybody with the gameplay which looks nothing like the actual game not to mention this is literally the only thing you see of them animated walking around the entire game outside of this is literally just animations of their stock photos moving around while you read text as they speak.

Considering this game was more of a spin-off than a main series title, I really don’t see it as a big problem. Also, saying it was the “only chance” is a little pessimistic imo. There’s another game on the way, and possibly more after that. It’s not as if they *can’t* make a more shooter focused game for Strife.

[@AnilSenkurt]

@@Violyte64 Last time I checked they were not working on the next title. So there is hope

[@Violyte64]

@ You might wanna check again, ‘cause it looks to me like they’re cooking something up rn. And as someone who *isn’t* into FPS, I’m happy with what we got, and I love playing as Strife the way he is in Genesis. I don’t expect to agree on this point, but I do think it’s worth pointing out that the market for shooters is already pretty crowded as it is. Considering how Darksiders 3 tried to be a soulslike and that decision was somewhat poorly received, I think it makes sense that the devs might be reluctant to try their hand at making a FPS. Or maybe the decision to make Genesis a top down co-op game was to test the waters for how they might eventually make a co-op game with all 4 Horsemen, like they’ve said they want to do. Regardless, I’m just not in the camp of complaining about what the game isn’t when it largely meets my standards for a Darksiders experience, especially a spin-off one. You’re gonna have to find someone else if you’re looking for resonance with your sentiments.
