Strife needs his own game. Another game to reveal the main bad guys behind this entire plot against the Horsemen. And another to end it. Two games playing as all 4 is better than one.
Lucifer and the Council were working together. Darksiders 3 kind of states the Council sought to destroy humanity, seeing how their balance was a lie. I believe the Council and Lucifer plotted together to destroy the 3rd Kingdom.
Goddamn. So that's why Abbadon feared humanity would tip the Balance in Hell's favor during the End War, because he feared Lucifer had already corrupted them from the beginning... Also, I hope this wasn't "Strife's game" for the series. I want him to have his own like the other 3.
@@garrettlich7140 If there is a solo strife game, there would be 2 possibilities. The first one is it follows the trend of the next game happing chronologically before the last one, which means that Strife’s solo game would take place after Genisis but before Darksiders 3. The second is that Strife’s game takes place where Darksiders 1 ended, with the 4 horsemen reunited and we simply play as Strife. I think they’re going to go with the first option because we needs to see how Strife ended up as Jones in Darksiders 3, and how he lost his two guns. Maybe he was sent on a mission by the council, abandoned it then went to safeguard humanity until Fury showed up.
I do love how they've used this to set the backdrop for the other games, and how badly Humanity and the Nephalim have been screwed by the Council, the Angels and the Demons of the setting.
War: You joke, as we stand before such utter sacrilege? Strife: Look, I know this is bad an all, but keep your head on straight. We need you just shy of "raging, uncontrollable chaos," or you might lose another arm. War: It took all three of you to restrain me last time, want to try it alone? Strife: Hhhheeelllll no I don't! Let's just save it for Belial. My personal favourite bit of dialogue
Death is big brother and always keep secret to his siblings make him so mysterious and not easy to get along among 4 Horseman, Strife easy going and like playing around make him more easy to approach among 4 Horseman, Fury don't like lose and always want to be the best even to her own siblings make her the most hot blood among 4 Horseman, and War to dutiful and don't like playing around despite the youngest of them make him the most stiff and easy to deceive among 4 horseman.
I wouldn't say that War is easy to deceive but he always did strike me as gullible, that is until I saw how naive Fury actually was but yeah, War just comes off as brash, still having a lot to learn.
"By now... Who can say? Will you kill us all, to be sure?" You can see his eyes drop. There you see a brief surge of who Strife was, before. That he was reminded of a similar event long ago, where he had to kill many people, once before.
I don't follow your reasoning. They all have past, they are nephilim after all, race created to stain human race, to destroy and kill. None of them is without sins.
There needs to be 2 more Darksiders games. Darksiders 4, where you play as Strife. Darksiders 5, where you play as all 4 Horsemen to end the Council and Lucifer, to save humanity.
unless the 4 can replace the Council somehow, get rid of them would be a pretty bad idea since they are the reason human get to survive in the first place and prevent the war between Angle and Demon, not to mention the horsemen don't care about humanity that much anyway. War fight demon and angel simple because they try to upset the balance, Death revived humanity only to save War, while Fury barely care about those puny human
@@cainabel6356 well we also don't know how powerful is the council yet either, they are someone able to make both Heaven and Hell listen to them to form the seal, they also the one gave the Horsemen power in the first place. Just as how they took away War's power in Darksider 1, they should be able to took away all of their power easy.
If Darksiders gets a fourth installment and Strife is the main character, I want the voice actor of him for Genesis to play as him because I absolutely love the guy!!!
Not to be rude, but the voice actor from Darksiders 3 is the same from Genesis, so it will most likely stay the same since he's apparently been dedicated to the series since Darksiders 1 as Vulgrim.
@@TheGraveKnight Oh, yeah, you're right! It was Chris Jai Alex in Genesis. Sorry about that. And I, at this very moment, now prefer him over Phil Lamarr. @Gundam-Knight-Chris ignore everything I said and listen to TheGraveKnight.
@K.A Noires tbf i did not expect Strife to talk the way he does in Genesis. I first heard him in D3. There, he talks differently. In Genesis he talks more like a modern man. Not like the other horsemen. Not that that's a bad thing.
I don't. And we all hope since Darksiders 2 there will be Strife alone game. But I don't like him here, he sounds like Deadpool. They should work a lot on his character to impress me.
War: It took 3 of you to restrain me last time, want to try it alone? Strife: hehe Hell no Me: Who among the 3 horseman that restrain War ,chop his left arm? Death?
In the comic book war went on a rampage and the council sent the 3 to bring him back to the council in the middle of battle war was about to kill Fury but Death got in the way to save her since death couldn't be killed, i don't remember what death said but death did chop off his arm as a way to punish him and to make him learn a lesson. Hope this sorta helped
@@michaelcruz5047 Thanks for the backstory. So Death really chop it off to teach him a lesson but that's weird. War has now has a hell gauntlent looking thing for a hand. His more dangerous....well at least War will not go on a rampage again.

I love the voice actors in this. But I can’t help but feel like Nathan Fillion would’ve been. Perfect Strife. Also, all I hear when I hear War is Gaara of the sand 😂
Did the Council, or anyone for that matter, ever warn the Nephallim as to what would happen if they tried to sack Eden? Like, form what I can interpret is that one supreme force whom works for "the Balance" ever just popped up in front of the Nephallim horde and say, "Hey - so, know you guys are having a blast in your onslaught across all Creation, but just so you guys know Eden, your next target, has been considered 'off-limits' by order to the Council. So, yeah - have a lovely day!" Does anyone else think that the Council allowed things to get as bad as they were just so they could get 4 agents (slaves) to do their bidding?
when you get the voice actor for Goliath from gargoyles and the Arbiter you can tell some shit is going down, and hiring him was most of the games budget
Strife the better version of the merc with the mouth ~ Dead pool: HEY !! Me: what ? He's a horsemen he got better guns than you and do I have to point it out ? ... Dead pool: no ... But you know that really hurts my feelings though
This game to me is “how do we feature strife in all this without making a looter shooter” so to speak. Strife is dope tho. I can see him getting on everyone’s nerves. Especially Death.
I can probably safely say that they have a a lot of love for him even when they want to strangle him. He’s the bright side and I’m sure he makes them laugh even if they don’t show it 😁😁😁
Is the voice actor for the moloch guy the same one that voices spawn? As soon as he started talking my brain immediately said what are you doing here spawny boi
Wdym? It is a prequel after the War in Eden (I still hoped for a Darksiders game that takes place during the War in Eden even though it was clearly explained in this game and Darksiders 2 [with Absalom])

What's wrong with a top down perspective? I think Strife being a gunslinger makes a top down twin stick shooter perspective ideal especially compared to the shooting in the other games which left much to be desired, which is fine since they weren't trying to be a third person shooters. I think this perspective change is cool as hell and much more functional gameplay wise.
Okay, so Timeline, Genesis is the first, Darksiders 1 Prologue follows, 2 and 3 basically run alongside each other, and then the rest of the first game. Now all we need is a final fifth instalment where all four horsemen are playable and kick Lucifer's buttocks and I'll be a happy camper.
Ok, so sure they wanted to mess around before making the true 4th instalment.. but why.. why why why did they had to do a diablo rippof?. . Sure I enjoyed the twist, and the comedy aspect but still.. wasn't what I did look forward to when I saw the teaser for strife. . So hope they are gonna make the fourth, they can even make a fifth that raps up the bag but still..
im super bummed that the horsemen aren't actually related because my head cannon was that death raised the other three as a big brother and carried around baby war in a a little baby carrier
They are all as related as one Nephillim can be to another. They all rose from ashes that Lilith and her Maker lover wrought together, ashes of Demons and Angels combined. They do not have families as humans do.
Strife needs his own game. Another game to reveal the main bad guys behind this entire plot against the Horsemen. And another to end it. Two games playing as all 4 is better than one.

stryfe made war laugh that precious moment i'll carve it in my soul
Time stamp??
At the VERY LEAST I'm glad that they didn't turn Strife into a flat-out clown. That would've been a severe disappointment.
at the same time though im glad they gave us a horseman who wasn't just sad and or angry
It definitely is a fine line to cross between making a character who is laid-back yet still serious enough to be a horsemen in this series.
I do love how they've used this to set the backdrop for the other games, and how badly Humanity and the Nephalim have been screwed by the Council, the Angels and the Demons of the setting.

Are meteors like the only mode of instant transportation for the horsemen.
Charred Council: yes

I think Strife just became my new favorite character! 😆
He's a walking shitpost and I love it.
Death is still better for me haha. War is cool but a bit dull
Man, i really love his character
Nazareth basically Deadpool
Agreed. He and Fury seem to be the only ones who don’t have a stick up their butts
1:17:57 my other favorite part when strife relays the message of Samuel being called a piss-ant

Episodes: 15.
Runtime: 30m.

Anyone else feels like Genesis’s gameplay is better suited to having all 4 horseman or prefer the others?
Im going to get this game just to listen to Strife!
all these games and we still don't know what Lucifer looks like
