Darkest Dungeon vs Elden Ring
Darkest Dungeon
Darkest Dungeon is a hardcore turn-based dungeon crawler with a rather unique gothic theme that explores the psychological stresses of adventuring as well as a beautiful, comic-like art style. Play through the more realistic (not glorified) life of an adventurer as you will not only fight challenging and devious enemies, but also face a host of problems that most adventure RPGs simply turn a blind eye to such as the stress and other mental of the day-to-day of an adventurer, famine, disease and of course, the dark feeling that arose when whatever you do doesn't really seem to matter.The game is pretty much story-driven (as you might ahve expected), but it does also feature a rather innovative turn-based combat as well as over 16 different hero classes for you to play as and recruit to your party. As mentioned, the game's a hardcore game as well - this means permadeath, procedural dungeons and practically endless replay value!
If you think you'd enjoy a more narrative-driven dungeon crawler that's very different from all the other similar games you might have played, Darkest Dungeon is definitely a game you'll want to get.
Elden Ring
Elden Ring is another souls-like adventure created by the masters of dark fantasy and extremely difficult games, FromSoftware. Instead of a restrictive world, you’ll be treated to a vast expanse full of explorable open fields and massive dungeons. As the Tarnished, a character you can fully customize, you’ll fight all manner of enemies, from wyverns and armored knights to gigantic, grotesque beings straight out of a dark fantasy novel. You can play according to your preferred playstyle; do so by combining the game’s massive roster of weapons, armor, and magic so you can create the type of warrior you want, whether you’re aiming for a close-quarters combatant or a spell user.The game features an epic, multilayered story told in fragments. Its lore was made with inputs from renowned A Song of Ice and Fire creator George R.R. Martin, guaranteeing that every castle you explore, enemy you encounter, and dungeon you conquer will yield a rich backstory. Elden Ring also features an asynchronous online element, along with its direct multiplayer, where you can explore its world with friends and fellow Tarnished.
