Devil May Cry vs Hyper Light Drifter
Devil May Cry
Devil May Cry is an incredible hack-and-slash action game from an iconic series where you get to assume the role of Dante (as in Dante's inferno), the offspring of an angel and a demon caught in between the very two worlds his parents are from. The game retells the famously-compelling story of Dante's origin set in a living, breathing and yet twisted world of Limbo, where monsters of all shapes and sizes lurk. Using both demonic and angelic powers that he possesses to deal with any enemy in his way, Dante sets off on a journey of discovery as he gradually come to terms with who he is and what powers he has inherited.Featuring high-octane and visceral, combos-based melee combat, a storyline that just reel you in, and a rich and constantly evolving world, Devil May Cry doesn't only do its old games justice; it actually surpasses the old, forging a new path of its own. If you like hack and slash games, this is essentially the epitome of a great modern game of that genre.
Hyper Light Drifter
Hyper Light Drifter is an action-adventure RPG with a very unique pixel-based art style and a fun gameplay that will keep you coming back for more. The storyline in this game is pretty bleak since you play as a drifter who happens to have an odd but vicious disease that keeps haunting your thoughts and dodging your every move. By traveling to the dark and savage lands of Buried Time, you hope to find a way to finally be free of this illness.Being ill, you aren't exactly in your fighting prime and so, instead of relying on your frailing strength, combat in this game mainly involves dashing away to avoid blows and trying to strike the enemy in between dashes. In some way, it may feel like being the less burly underdog in a WWE match. There are plenty of weapons to help you though, along with a variety of incredible skills which you can master.
The world you play in is also quite vast, with plenty of hidden nooks and crannies - usually with a bonus reward in them - for you to find. In addition to the story mode, there is a horde mode (endless) as well where you can truly put your combat skills to the test. However, one of the best things about this game is the soundtrack which somehow seems to complement the game's graphics and its overall atmosphere perfectly.
With the unique pixel art and the old-school feel, Hyper Light Drifter may not be everyone's cup of tea, but if you do enjoy such games, you'll find that this game is truly a hidden indie gem.
