Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen vs Guild Wars 2
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen casts you into the role of an adventurer leading a band of three AI companions (a.k.a. Pawns) as you set off into a huge and gorgeous open world in search of fame, glory and treasures. One of the main selling points in this game is the incredibly well-designed combat system where you'll actually need to approach your battles and your opponents strategically rather than simply rush head-on. Find out the weaknesses of your enemies and attack them at their achilles' heel.The game also has some of the most amazing AI learning systems in place where the combat style of each Pawn will change depending on the traits learned from the player. In other words, you can literally train your Pawns to fill in the roles you need them to be. Whether you'll train them as a versatile fighter or to play a very specific role in your group... well, that's entirely up to you. Players will even have a ton of options to choose from when it comes to customizing their characters.
Despite the slightly weaker storyline, Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen is one of the best monster-hunting and slaying RPGs out there where the action-based gameplay feels smooth and realistic enough to immerse you completely during intense battles with monstrous creatures. If this sounds just like a game you'd like to play, be sure to give the game a try!
Guild Wars 2
Guild Wars 2 is one of the world's most recognizable MMORPGs and is listed among the topmost MMO games of all time... a position that is hotly contested by another equally epic MMORPG, World of Warcraft. However, unlike WoW, the game abhors the subscription model and, like Elder Scrolls Online, has opted for a more feasible and, honestly, a more player-fair model - the buy-once-to-play model.That aside, Guild Wars 2 has a ton of content that doesn't live up to its title but also make every cent you've spent to buy the game prove its worth several times over. What's not to like right? In addition to an incredibly addictive gameplay where combat is action-based and battles are affected by a one-of-a-kind, weapons-and-profession-based skills system, you get updates for free! There are fun, dynamic questing events, massive cross-server PvP events, and even... wait for it... underwater combat!
Best yet, the game has recently relented a little due to the release of its major expansion back in 2015, allowing new players to try the base game out for completely free! After all, it’s not every day you’ll get to enjoy one of the best games in MMO history for free. So, don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity and play Guild Wars 2 today!
