Damn, this game is making a strong case to be purchased along with my WiiU launch horde. I wasn't a big fan of Darksiders 1 but the additions they are making to this are really selling me on it, especially the loot aspect and exploration. I'm a sucker for loot and I think the lack of exploration is what hurt the first game for me. It just felt too linear up to the point where I shelved it.
