Dark Souls III: The Fire Fades vs Torchlight: The Legend Continues
Dark Souls III: The Fire Fades
Dark Souls III: The Fire Fades is possibly the last in the game series and it only seemed right for it to return to its roots with lots of throwbacks to the original game that had made the franchise famous. Dark Souls 3 has a gameplay that many would say is quite similar to the first game thought the developers do attempt to spice it up with a Poise mechanism which frankly kinda fell short. The game also gave the dungeon crawling genre a nod by providing the most in-depth and impressive character customization system where you literally can design whichever build you like.Of course, there are still the usual stuff like fun quests, a compelling storyline and a well-made co-op mode. However, some players have given the developers some hell for the insane amount of latency they are experiencing in the game's multiplayer PvP.
Despite some of its flaws, Dark Souls 3 is still a great game to end a brilliant game series. Fans of the franchise should definitely get this game. Newcomers on the other hand should get the first two games before getting this one.
Torchlight: The Legend Continues
Torchlight: The Legend Continues is a dungeon crawler that manages to combine the essences of both Diablo and Torchlight series and packaged it into a mobile-friendly format. Featuring an auto-pathfinding system, the game feels a lot different than any other "automated games" out there mainly due to the abundance of character customization options (mainly through skill combinations and equipment). Randomization is also added to its gameplay and its maps, so you'll encounter very different scenarios even if the dungeon you are running is the same one. It keeps the game experience fresh and exciting.Similar to the old Torchlight games, there are also pets that you can adopt. These pets have their own set of main and passive skills which can be applied in your combat. Pets can be improved by fishes caught via fishing at randomly-spawned fishing ponds in the game.
Torchlight is one of the most loved dungeon crawlers, possibly second only to the Diablo series, and this mobile version of it does the franchise justice in many ways. So, if you love playing dungeon crawlers on your mobile devices, you should definitely try Torchlight: The Legend Continues.
