Alan Wake vs Dead by Daylight
Alan Wake
Alan Wake is a a story-rich horror RPG that casts you in the role of the protagonist and best-selling writer, Alan Wake. To escape from the stress of life and his work, Alan has travelled tyo the quaint little town of Bright Falls, hoping to start a new life there with his wife. However, things took a turn for the worst when his wife was taken in the middle of the night and apparently, things aren't all they seem in this town. Not to mention, the game also uses a "Fight with Light" method, where you can combat the mysterious yet malevolent foes lurking in the dark with a blast of light from your trusty torch.With tons of plot twists, cliffhangers along with heart-pounding horror and action as you help Alan fight to save his beloved, Alan Wake is a psychological thriller that will definitely keep you at your seat's edge!
Dead by Daylight
Dead by Daylight is a rather interesting multiplayer game because it uses a 4-vs-1 where the 1 player plays as the Killer in the first-person view while the other 4 players take on the role of the Survivors who will have more situational awareness by playing in third person view. Each Killer/ Survivor will have their own progression system, allowing players to customize their character to their play styles and since each level is procedurally generated, predictability isn't exactly a word in this game's dictionary.The best part about the gameplay though is that the Survivors can actually choose to try to escape from the Killing Grounds together or in their own separate ways. It doesn't force you to cooperate with other Survivors and well, frankly, the axiom that goes "there is strength in numbers" may not ring true in this game... after all, by needing to locate only one of you, the Killer would have found and slayed all the Survivors in a single go.
Aside from the brilliant gameplay, Dead by Daylight also has the perfectly creepy atmosphere to match its somewhat gory theme. This is definitely not a game for the weak-hearted! However, the game has had a major technical fault which apparently wiped the progress of many players. Not to mention, playing in this game can be frustrating at times especially whenever either the survivors or the killer bring in overpowered add-ons which will tilt the game heavily in one side's favor. In fact, you can easily know who will win within the first few minutes of the game.
So, as amazing as the game concept is, Dead By Daylight still needs to do a ton of improvement, especially fix all of their game bugs, for it to be a game worth buying. That said, if you're interested to give it a try, you can wait for its Free-to_play weekends or you can buy it during a massive discount.
