For the third installment about Horseman Fury the creators decided to heavily rely on Dark Souls mechanics. So if you like this kind of games, this might be for you. I didn't particularly like it because:
- the story is meh: you need to find and eliminate the seven deadly sins - and that's pretty much it
- while the game itself is reasonably fast paced, there is a lot of dialogue in cutscenes and even some scenes ingame where you can just walk to converse with your companion - can't run, jump, fight during theses scenes. It totally destroys the pacing
- the game includes a lot of backtracking, meaning you will regularly lose your way only to realize you've been there before and it's not the way forward
- on death you lose all your collected souls and you have to recollect them if you want to buy something or level up. Level ups can be bought regularly at trader Vulgrim. Each level up will be more expensive than the last.
- even on the lower difficulties the enemies are tough and swarm to kill you quickly
- even ordinary enemies can block all of your attacks and some even withstand your Chaos form without any problems
- at the same time, you can only evade, not block incoming attacks. Your evasion skills must be flawless: too soon and the enemy just hits your new position; too late and you get hit. Most enemies string their attacks so if you get hit by the first swing, you will get hit by the second and third without being able to evade. This will cost you huge chunks of your health bar
- many enemies have a huge area of attack you can't evade at all
- the game doesn't follow its own rules: As you progress, you get certain abilities to change your form and weapons at will. The game tells you how to use these forms and their perks. E.g. there's a form to help you walk under water and withstand even the strongest winds. But near the end of the game quite a lot of a level revolves around these strong winds and the form you're supposed to choose doesn't help you at all.

I liked the previous games more, but I can't blame the devs for trying to include some mechanics players love in other games in order to evolve their series. It's just not for me.

Edit:
I saw some reviews critizing the game for its many bugs. I didn't encounter any game breaking bugs or crashes while playing.

Straight out downgrade in every aspect compared to Darksiders 2 (simplistic equipment and levelling system, less interesting environment and characters, clunky camera)
