I'm gonna try and finish Darksiders 2, so I can put another game on the "completed" list. That's not to say that Darksiders 2 isn't enjoyable, it's a hell of a lot better than Darksiders 1, although I still get annoyed by some platforming puzzles and boss mechanics. The platforming is much better, but I have had to look up how to beat the bosses. Unlike with Darksiders 1, I might actually want to replay Darksiders 2, but it will still feel good when it's completed.
It's probably best played at a few hours at a time, since you're mostly doing the same thing. You're told to find person A who can help you find location B, but first you need go through lots of terrain, enemies and platforming (maybe even a boss) and when you finally reach person A, you have to help him by doing quest C before he'll take you to location B and so on. It's like a checklist that keeps on branching. I also don't like that there are areas you can't reach initially, that annoys my completionist nature. You see that there is a treasure chest located behind an obstacle, but you have to revisit that area after getting a specific ability to get to it (enemies may or may not respawn on revisit).
