It's been like 6 years since the last one XD
Though to be fair darksiders 2 didn't live up to my expectations either, just in a different way is all. I've never liked diablo lootgrind.

You're absolutely right, fury's combat style is geared almost completely towards dueling whereas enemies attack in groups.
There is a mod for your weapons that will increase the dodge I-frames quite a bit (the patch did too apparently, but I haven't put it on yet) to the point where even if I miss the perfect dodge I still I-frame through any single-hit non-delayed attack. FYI: it seems like you can have 3 mods equipped and active at once, one on your whip, one on your sub-weapon, and one on the. Not that it helps with causing damage since enemies just hyper-armor trough any combos you initiate if you don't stagger them with a perfect-dodge counter. But hey you get to screw up a few more times before you die ;pchakram
My complaints about the change in style of combat aside it's NOT a bad game by any means. Just a little short and not what I'd expected/wanted out of a darksiders title. If they ever make a D4 I'll be interested to see what direction they take things as Strife comes off as a ranged combat type (striker if you're used to D&D 4th or 5th ED) whereas War is obviously the tank, Death is the spellsword (a weeeezard that can melee). Fury? I don't know what archetype fury fits, since I've never found a counter-spammy archetype. Maybe we'll get some sick gun-fu out of him. I won't be purchasing it if it's another souls-like-lite though as I just cannot support the whitewashing of the industry with anything that's hip and trendy.
Fuck me, I really should have posted this in EE.

Honestly didn't sense any femnazi while playing. And you KNOW I go out of my way to find it. Also very seldom do I look at the promises of game publishers, so I had no idea she was supposed to play as something decent. As for character development yeah, they certainly fell short of their goal. It was very weird and alot of the time I wondered if I was viewing scenes out of order or had skipped some pivotal plot point.
