I think the story of Darksiders 2 is good. It combines elements of fantasy and adventure in a way that keeps you wanting to know what happens next. The narrative has depth and complexity that adds to the gaming experience.
The Darksiders game story is set in a post - apocalyptic world. You play as one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. The Horsemen are sent to Earth to deal with various threats and restore balance. There are elements of combat, exploration, and solving puzzles as you progress through the game's levels.
The story length of Darksiders 2 is quite flexible. On average, players spend around 25 hours to finish the main plot. However, if you're a completionist and want to uncover all the secrets and extras, you could be looking at 40+ hours of gameplay.
There are a few DarkSiders novels available, including 'Darksiders: The Abomination Vault' and 'Darksiders: The Eternal War'. But the list might change over time as new ones are released.
