Baldur's Gate vs Shelter 2
Baldur's Gate
Baldur's Gate is an age-old RPG/dungeon crawler that has captivated the hearts of many. Originally released back in 1998, Baldur’s Gate is possibly the very first RPG that has paved the way to the emergence of some of the more modern titles like the Dungeon & Dragons computer game franchise. The game is played in a pretty much team-based fashion where you will get to recruit heroes to your team and lead them into dungeons and other dangerous places in the Sword Coast to fight a wide variety of monsters in hopes of getting more loot... and of course the truth behind the sinister forces that are at work fuelling the tension that is about to break into an all-out war.This enhanced edition of the game also include a nice upgrade to its graphics (but don't expect visuals like The Witcher 3 though) and over 400 tweaks to improve the game experience overall. It also contain new adventures, characters and voice acting for the characters. The game even added in multiplayer support so you can play this game with your friends online!
Baldur's Gate is possibly the "father of all modern RPGs" and if you're curious how this timeless RPG can give birth to other epic RPGs or if you're simply nostalgic, you can get the game at a modest price on Steam and on your mobile devices.
Shelter 2
Shelter 2 is a simulation/RPG where you play as a lynx, an animal that lives out on the cold tundra and is somewhere in the middle of the food chain. In this game, you start as a pregnant lynx who's looking for a safe space to give birth and rear your cubs. You'll get to experience parenthood from the perspective of an animal and the experience can be pretty immersive thanks to the many maternal and hunting features available, including calling the cubs to move closer to you and smelling the air for any prey nearby. The game is a lot richer in terms of its diversity than the original game as well, and you'll get access to a lot more movements and jumps, giving you the range of movements you'd come to expect for a graceful animal like the lynx.Although the graphics here may be an acquired taste, Shelter 2 is still a masterpiece of a game and is definitely the sort of game you'll want to play if you love playing animal games where you're placed in the paws of said animal.
