Bloodborne vs Silent Hill 2
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.
Silent Hill 2
Silent Hill 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to Silent Hill, but instead of trying to continue its predecessor's storyline, the game thrusts you into a whole new adventure as you join James Sunderland whose young wife, Mary, had just passed away due to a tragic event. With his life shattered before it had even begun, he hadn't been able to move on... and three years later, he received a mysterious letter that's apparently from his deceased wife asking him to return to the dark realm of Silent Hill where he will eventually find out the true nature of her death.Silent Hill 2 provides players with a much larger environment to explore in, including many of the previous closed off areas. The game even added special effects, such as real-time weather, fog, morphing and shadows, that is guaranteed to make you jump right off your seat.
