I have to say, War and Strife together are a very funny pair. We got the snarky brother paired up with the super serious one. Even then War seems to actually be fine trading jabs with his brother, it's nice.
The entire story is War and Strife unknowingly helping Lucifer cause humanity to do the original sin from the book of genesis. I don't understand how I didn't see this coming. Now the wait for Darksiders 4 where all the 4 horsemen hopefully will say "we are fucking done being used".
@@laoenkm That was the original goal when THQ was creating Darksiders. We have Revenant From The Ashes which I felt was a test at the co-op feature and it has gunplay. So yes, I want to see all four in Darksiders 5 through the traditional third-person action-RPG... hell, combine Darksiders 2's loot system with Darksiders 3's Souls-lite environments. And let Darksiders Genesis get a sequel so we can have four player dungeon crawling with all four of the horsemen.
FatalFist please, no "souls-lite" nor "souls-like", Darksiders is hack and slash, period. Not even RPG! I prefer a Darksiders 5 more like Genesis than DS3 plus DS2 combined.
I’d guess rampage is maybe back since their steeds are basically a part of the horsemen through their bond, so when the 7 seals were broken Rampage probably came back (hopefully).
52:12 that moment touched me. It reminded me of the time when my brother and I would get into trouble and we would just laugh it off. Good memories......
I always suspected that Vulgrim was Lucifer in disguise. The dude also deals with souls that he accepts as payment. Which makes me wonder if he’s either Lucifer or he will end up betraying us one point to deliver the batch of souls he has since collected.
See, I do think the devs paid close attention to the lore material. Case in point, Belial - who was the villain in Darksiders 2's DLC campaign. I was concerned when he's mentioned thinking, "No, we can't kill him. What's going on?" And sure enough, he survives.
Death is the Older Brother, Fury like the baby sister pining for attention and Strife and War are like twins considering how they act towards each other, but then again, Strife and War are two side of the same coin. That golden horse scene tho....I'm not the only one that got Deadpool vibes from Strife right? EDIT: I KNOW that War is actually the youngest, I am talking how their interactions between each other is like.
@@ktc1875 Yeah, I know, but I am saying they ACT like twins, and Furys obsession with acknowledgment from her brothers is like how a younger sibling would ACT
I thought the lore said Earth was Eden, not a completely different planet. And that humans were special because the creator took a hands off approach when making them. Making them more reliant on technology than magic.
Let me enlighten you, that discussion about war losing his hand is referenced to the comics. See, indeed war had a temper tantrum, and seeing that he was out of control, Death stepped in and cut off his arm. Death, as a fact, is the most powerful of the horsemen and also he’s the one who gave war his larger hand
Ihazbestplan yeah War was raging or something and strife and fury tried to stop him but death ended up cutting off his arm that’s why one of his arms is bigger than the other There’s a comic book talking about their origins
I’d like to a Darksiders game with Death and Fury. I’d love to see their relationship in a way that shows how Death’s power and secrets drove Fury to be who she is in Darksiders 3.
I wish they would have shown what Lucifer looks like. Though i get the feeling they will show it in Darksiders 4 alongside Strife's side of the story. Makes sense since it was hinted that Strife died at some point. Maybe he tried facing Lucifer alone at some point and failed.
Both war and strife show what death had from all of them, strength and agility. That’s why death is the most powerful, i wish o could play as him again in a dlc or something
So. Are we not going to talk about the fact Samael had a sword and then we never see it again in the other games? Either he lost it against Moloch or he's not bringing all his cards to the table against Death in DS2 as suspected by many.
I’ve got a feeling Strife isn’t dead but in hiding. In darksiders 3 he was hiding as a human but in 1 and 2 his weapons are given to both is brothers. Obviously timeline wise it goes Genesis, 3/2 and then 1. And at the end of 1 we see the other horseman come down to Earth so he’s most definitely not dead.
@@johnsantos507 it's a yes. Chronologically the games go in order as such : genesis, 2, 3 and 1. If you followed the other games you should know that the 7 seals existed in all 3 of the other ones, hence since they were only created here, this preceeds the other 3 games
Kinda liked War more as the always serious one like the game. Death is still the funniest to me, with what few joking lines he had. Fury is.......emotional. I will admit, I do like Strife's calm demeanor.
Micheal Harrison what makes you say that? The game is doing well and there’s no reason this developer company wouldn’t add more while we wait for a Darksiders 4 campaign.
LostEmpireProduction Death is first generation Nephilim. It’s why he’s so damn powerful. It’s why he was able to slay Absolom, twice. In Darksiders 2, you face enemies early on that Fury faced late in Darksiders 3. Then Strife, then Fury, then War.
@Magic Knight Azure I think we can consider the comic retconned, because it seems they have also changed the ages of the characters, in the comics it was stated that War is the youngest, but in DS3 it was retconned to Fury being the baby sister. EDIT: Ok, so I took a second look at the comic, War did not lose his arm in the premature apocalypse, he lost his arm during an earlier fight when a group of angels and demons had a small skirmish between them on Eden and War was sent by the charred council to stop them, but during his massacre he got a little too into it and in order to reign him back in, the charred council sent the 3 siblings to detain him and that is when he lost his arm. Edit: This skirmish happened before the Nephilim's genocide, in the comic you can actually see War sitting ontop of a mountain of corpses consisting of beings from all 3 races.
"No one is ever pleased to see us"
Darksider fans: Are we a joke to you?
Strife: I would say yes but that wouldn't be good enough torture
War: Can we just smash their heads in?

Like MIB’s Agents K and J~.
So basically death is the best of both worlds.
I mean,they are indeed brothers afterall
Yeah, listening to them talk you think "Man, these two must fucking hate each other." but, they clearly don't, they just bros doing bro-things. XD
Hopefully we get a game that has death and fury side of their story and the mission

Strife's gotta have his own game first. If I could venture a guess, playing as all four horsement won't happen till Darksiders Finality or whatever :P
Yeah, coupled with the theme music cue - it was a tragic-hero story. Even the council says it had to be done for the betterment of mankind.

The scene with Lucifer sparking through the child was actually pretty spooky, such a well spoken and articulated bringer of absolute chaos.
Still waiting to get Strifes own game, but I can certainly say with confidence that Strife is my favorite horsmen because of his personality.
Thats what this is supposed to be a story for strife
@@calebmatthews7268 but hopefully we get a proper darksiders game for him l
@@calebmatthews7268 nah it was a spinoff introducing strife so they don't have to wait so long in between 3 and 4
Strife = Cayde-6 (Destiny), but make him Apocalyptic
52:10 is the best bro moment in the game
The Lucifer possessing the child scene is bone chilling.
Coupled with the music and the fact that War and Strife had to murder those humans (Book of Genesis), it was harrowing.
*War and Strife: Darksiders’ MIB Agents K and J*
agent W. and agent S
More like Leonardo and Michelangelo from TMNT.

Thats a really good theory now that you mention it. He even has his own realm
bro is just a demon tryna get by lol

Watched the ending multiple times. One of the best game endings ever IMO. It explains so much.
51:44 I wasn't expecting to hear War laugh... it looks good on him. :)
"My treasure sense is tingling" XD
52:10 War must be really stressed if he laughs.
Wow. I didn't know Megatron was part of the Charred Council. XD

I was expecting Strife to ride the white horse.
Both war and strife show what death had from all of them, strength and agility. That’s why death is the most powerful, i wish o could play as him again in a dlc or something
The best part is Strife calling Samael a pissant.
WAR: "Tread lightly"
reminds me of illidan hmmm.
I love Strife's voice
I second that
I was wondering how War's voice sounds so familiar and then I realized it is the exact same voice used for Infinite in Sonic Forces! XD
