4 Elements II vs Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
4 Elements II
4 Elements II places the entire magical kingdom under a shroud of darkness and despair once again due to a careless charm which had stripped the four fairies of the elements of their magic power. Assume the role of the hero and help set the fairies of earth, air, fire and water free, and restore the book of magic in this exciting sequel!The game features the same fun and challenging match-3 gameplay spread across 64 unique levels in addition to a wider variety of brain-teasers that are hardly repeated throughout the game. Players also have the option to choose between a timed or untimed mode.
4 Elements II is definitely a much better game than its original, which is what a sequel is supposed to be. The match-3 games are as engaging as ever and of course, there are plenty of fun mini-games on the side to help keep the game fresh and interesting.
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen casts you into the role of an adventurer leading a band of three AI companions (a.k.a. Pawns) as you set off into a huge and gorgeous open world in search of fame, glory and treasures. One of the main selling points in this game is the incredibly well-designed combat system where you'll actually need to approach your battles and your opponents strategically rather than simply rush head-on. Find out the weaknesses of your enemies and attack them at their achilles' heel.The game also has some of the most amazing AI learning systems in place where the combat style of each Pawn will change depending on the traits learned from the player. In other words, you can literally train your Pawns to fill in the roles you need them to be. Whether you'll train them as a versatile fighter or to play a very specific role in your group... well, that's entirely up to you. Players will even have a ton of options to choose from when it comes to customizing their characters.
Despite the slightly weaker storyline, Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen is one of the best monster-hunting and slaying RPGs out there where the action-based gameplay feels smooth and realistic enough to immerse you completely during intense battles with monstrous creatures. If this sounds just like a game you'd like to play, be sure to give the game a try!
