Bastion vs The Witcher
Bastion
Bastion is a very unique action RPG that is so different from any other RPGs you might have played before mainly because the game provides you with your very own personal narrator who will reactively narrate your every move and action, resulting in a deeper and much more personal story to be crafted as you progress in your adventure. The brilliant hand-painted graphics and the melodious soundtrack in this game is astounding too, allowing you to be fully immersed in the bright and cheery-looking world despite being shattered into pieces by an almost apocalyptic event called the Calamity.The gameplay in Bastion is most definitely not the hack-and-slash sort. Instead, the game rewards you for approaching your battles with finesse rather than recklessness. To make your character stronger and able to take on tougher enemies, there are plenty of weapons you can loot and upgrade as well. Best yet, you can even discover up to 6 different Bastion structures and that the game has plenty of varied game modes for you to enjoy.
Bastion is an RPG very unlike any other we, and possibly you, have ever experienced before. The game has a really fascinating way of approaching its storytelling aspect and that alone is enough to make the game a must-buy for many players. But if the storyline isn't something you emphasize on, then you might want to grab the game for its gameplay instead.
The Witcher
The Witcher is one of the most world acclaimed action RPGs of its time. Inspired by the story and its fantasy world from the renowned Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski, The Witcher casts you as a famous mutant swordmaster and a professional monster slayer, Geralt of Rivia, in a non-linear yet intriguing plot filled with difficult decisions and important social topics like racism, politics and genocide. Being an action RPG, the game offers you hundreds of special abilities, potions and other magical augmentations in addition to realistic medieval sword-fighting moves to use in order to tactically take down your enemies depending on your own preferences, character build and play styles.The Witcher has come a long way since its first release back in 2008 and to celebrate its accomplishments, the developer, CD Projekt Red, has created a premium edition of the game complete with a rework of several aspects of the game, and include a director's cut, game guides, music CDs and a whole lot of other goodies. The game experience itself, despite having old-timey graphics, is already worth the cost but if you can get a ton of othe freebies, well, why not?
