Ok so in the end we see the other 3 horsemen being called, as the seventh seal is broken and the Apocalypse has begun.
what are your predictions or wishes for the sequel?
personally i don't even know what to expect. on one hand, all horsemen are like brothers (and a sister in this case), so they are most probably gonna join War. on the other hand, aren't they kind of 'bound' by the rules of the Council? maybe they will be forced to fight against War? would be awesome if they joined tho so that the game could have coop :)
another thing that REALLY interests me is Samael's role in the whole fuss. his character is so well written that i actually liked him more than War or any others in the game. everyone says that he will be the main antagonist in the sequel, but i'm not so sure. after all, War will be at... ahem... war with both sides. but on the other hand he has allies both with angels and demons.
Uriel may not be War's ally, but at least she doesn't hate him anymore. Vulgrim - hard to tell. it's pretty clear he doesn't take sides and would just aid anyone who can bring him souls. Samael - now THAT is an interesting case. since Samael is against the Destroyer, the demons might have a civil war of a kind. in which Samael's demons might be on one side with War. Samael is clearly after the Dark Prince's throne, he may not be interested in war with Heaven at all. at this time at least

Samael wants to rule hell.
I would like the idea of choosing your horseman(woman) before the game starts. But then this woudln't make sense lore wise or I can't think of a good implementation. Maybe be able to switch between the characters.. like in Fur Fighters if anyone has played that game :)
Would lessen the character identification tho..
Personally I think the Watcher was very well written :)
Made me laugh occasionally..
Balance has to remain... so I think the horsemen will want that Samael will get the leader of hell...
Can't think of more story atm.
€: Oh I forgot Ulthane!!
This is my absolute favourite character! I love him!
The german synchronisation is blatant bull♥♥♥♥ compared with his english voice tho!

replaying them the second time, i gotta say the shooting levels are incredible. the ones where you get to use the angelic gun and the demonic gun. should have more of those in the sequel imo

Yeah, totally agree with the guns. I HATED how slow you walk with them but it was fun to have that thrown in there to completely change the gameplay style. Maybe with a better Mercy they could do the same thing at some point but allow more mobility.
Bulletooth

nope, i think the slowdown is fair. the guns are extremely overpowered as is, so making War move slowly with them serves as sort of a balance. besides, this makes them feel heavy, which is good, and you still can dash with them

Well what I mean is make a more powerful gun than Mercy, give more mobility, but don't make it insanely powerful like those guns were. Somewhere in the middle is really where I was looking for it.

well tastes differ. i just think those guns are perfect, so it's sad you only meet angels/demons who carry them twice throughout the game. you can't carry them around anyways

Playing through it again, I was actually surprised how often you actually do see the angel gun. Even just going to one of the sword pieces at the Broken Stairs, you run into at least 3 angels with them. Had completely forgotten about them, but then again by then you are powerful enough to beat them before they even start firing on you much.

well yeah, but on Broken Stairs you won't be able to use it much :)
and the demonic gun is really only encountered once in the Ashlands
DeTard

Yep. To me that was the more entertaining one. Except when it would fire on the ground on slight inclines >.< That got old fast. But I don't know, something about the explosions made it more interesting. I'm almost surprised they didn't send any larger waves of enemies at you than they did. Would have been amazing if that was changed right before you fight the Stygian to be you killing all those blue guys leading a charge against you and your gun. I liked riding through them with Ruin and all, but too many of them didn't even fight back.

the reason they did that is because this is a console game after all and aiming with the gamepad sucked hard. i know that, i beat the game with a gamepad :)

I've got "Aerial Predator" using mouse, with 360 gamepad I've failed. But I can't say what aiming with gamepad sucks =) Just need some time to get used to it.

Ah yeah I haven't tried it with gamepad yet, though I really should have been. Just so used to playing with KB&M.

it sucks, trust me. the flying segment was a chore with a gamepad and a fun walk in the park with a mouse.

nah, you shouldn't have. the K&M controls could have been MUCH better, but the aiming and camera control just make it easier.

For Darksiders 2 i think we will fight againts the brothers of War (Fury, Strife and Death) because i think they dont know anything about that War is already in the Earth and what happened in the history of Darksiders "1" etc... And after defeat each one they give you something like a legendary enhancement, and the most powerful of the horsemans and the last one that you have to defeat will be Death (the "Big Brother") and after u defeat him he gives u The Harvester (Death scythe) and for the final boss X all the four horsemens will fight together againts him :O

possible, but unlikely. after all, War said he wouldn't be alone, and after that the 3 other horsemen falling from the skies were shown
