When dose this game take place.

[Slayrix]

I can't seem to figure it out, I've just been going with this is after the end of darksiders 1, heres why I think this, Also don't read if you don't want spoilers for darksiders 1 or 2
First reason why i think this is after darksiders 1 is because of the ending of darksiders 1 where all the rest of the horsemen come down in meteorites, If death was already on earth then how did he get into a meteor again even tho he was alread on earth, does not make any since, also when war gose back to earth, there are no people, there should be people since death brings back humans, also, war being held captive by the charred council is because he KILLED the watcher, breaking the law of the charred council. witch probably made the charred council mad so then captured him, it all makes since if this happens after the end of darksiders 1. So please tell me why it takes place during wars 100 year imprisonment. Maybe then I would understand.

Sorry for any spelling mistakes

Darksiders 2 takes place almost entirely during War's imprisonment. There are no people on Earth in DS1 because even after Death "brought them back", the Destroyer still controlled the Well of Souls. We also don't really know how much time passed between Death's scacrifice at the end of DS2, and the breaking of the final Seal at the end of the first game - but even assuming the two final bosses fights happen at the same time, then Humanity got brought back, at the latest, while War was fighting the Destroyer, so obviously we wouldn't see them during the game.

Remember also that both Death and War died at the end of the respective games; Uriel happened to break the Seal right next to War's body, so he was "summoned" right where he lied, but the others arrived from wherever they were - and for Death, that means he got resurrected and called back from the Well of Souls. Cheapens his final "sacrifice" a tiny bit, huh...
(~edit: now that I think about it, that means there's a high chance Fury will also die at the end of DS3)

And I fail to see what killing the Watcher has to do with anything. When War kills him, the final Seal has already been broken, meaning the Council doesn't have ANY power on any of the Horsemen anymore.

Ok now I see, I never actually saw the ending for myself but my friend did tell me but I guess he didn't tell me everything, so i was not aware that death died at the end, that makes since now that you say that, I see how this could take place during wars 100 year imprisonment then.

Also I have realised people saying that this game is unplayable, is it or are they just over reacting, are there game breaking glitches or not so bad.

all glitches I had could be resolved with quitting to menu and reloading, altough, I wouldn't dismiss all the problems others have just because I never did

btw, I play with beta patch and with dmg indicators off (it might crash otherwise)
