Downward vs Watch Dogs 2
Downward
Downward is an indie, first-person open-world parkour adventure. In this game, the end of the world has come and gone, tipping the Earth’s equilibrium and leaving in its wake the ruins of civilizations. Being among the handful of humans left, you set off on a treacherous journey to seek out and collect mysterious artifacts that may finally explain why things are now the way they are. Use various parkour techniques as well as the anomalies that had appeared across the post-apocalyptic world to traverse tricky puzzle-like locations and to escape from creatures that have awakened to claim the world as their own.To sum up, Downward is an incredible feat of a game, especially for an indie team of 3 people. The game is not only both challenging and entertaining; it provides players with inventive new game mechanics to play with; mechanics that gave the game a depth never seen before in first-person parkour game. Of course, aside from the brilliant graphics and sound, there’s also the insatiable urge to collect everything there is to collect in this game as well as mini parkour challenges which offer players hours of replayability.
So, if this sounds like a game you’d enjoy, you’ll be happy to know that you can buy Downward (early access) now on Steam for a mere $9.99 or you can try the demo for free. Check the game out today!
Watch Dogs 2
Watch Dogs 2 puts you into the shoes of another brilliant young hacker by the name of Marcus Holloway. This time though, you'll need to join forces with DedSec, a notorious and anonymous group of hackers, to carry out the largest hack of the century to shut down ctOS 2.0, an operating system that has been hijacked by criminal masterminds to stalk and manipulate people on a global scale. Featuring a similarly massive open world set in the San Francisco Bay Area for you to explore, you'll need to use whatever hacking tools you have at your disposal to ensure the success of your missions. The game also offers multiplayer modes where you can play with your friends or against them.However, the best part about this game is the unique eye-tracking feature, allowing you to rapidly target enemies and interact with your surroundings. Granted that not all (well, most) PCs or laptops can run this feature, but for those who can, this little yet significant feature can be incredibly game experience-changing!
Watch Dogs 2 truly pushes the boundaries of what a game can do simply with its eye-tracking feature. Not to mention, if you've been a bit disappointed in the first game, you'll find that this game has improved on almost every aspect possible, especially its diverse characters and deep and meaningful missions. You'll be happy with your purchase for sure!
