Bloodborne vs Gothic II
Bloodborne
Bloodborne is a gothic-themed horror action RPG that will send you on a journey to the ancient city of Yharnam that is plagued with a weird infection that not only turns its infectees mad but also twists their form into nightmarish beings. Equipped with an arsenal of melee and ranged weapons, you'll need to use your wits, quick reflexes and strategic thinking to take down these challenging enemies in search of answers that, frankly speaking, you might not even want to ever know.The game also has a rather separate part called the Chalice Dungeons which functions like a dungeon crawler where you can go through a massive, randomly-generated network of underground dungeons that are filled with monsters (common ones and bosses), traps, and of course, the items you seek - valuable items. Many players did not like this aspect of the game though, mainly because the dungeons are incredibly repetitive which encourages brainless farming rather than giving players another form of adventure, and well, the bosses that you slay aren't at all unique and thus, killing them doesn't feel at all impactful.
That said, Bloodborne is still a really amazing game to play. The dark and eerie theme might not suit everone's tastes, but the gameplay is just perfect. Thankfully, the weaker parts of the game (hint: the dungeons) are pretty much avoidable unless you plan on going for the highest difficulty in the game, which in this case, you'll need to farm the dungeons for the items you need.
Gothic II
Gothic II continues the storyline from the previous game where you were trapped in Mine Valley, a penal mining colony surrounded by a supposedly impassable magical barrier. You managed to make it out but unfortunately, the other more violent criminals took the opportunity to flee as well and are now causing havoc around the outskirts of the capital of Khorinis. The militia are overwhelmed and it is now up to you to lend them a hand.Like the game before it, there are tons of characters for you to interact with, each of them have their own daily routines; an arsenal of weapons and magical spells, as well as over 100 thrilling missions of varying difficulty to complete. If you've enjoyed the first game, you simply can't miss out on this one.
