Far Cry 4 vs Grim Dawn
Far Cry 4
Far Cry 4 casts you into the role of Ajay Ghale, a person who travelled to the remote mountainous region of Kyrat to fulfill his mother's dying wish only to find himself trapped in a civil war between the rebels and the dictator that ruled the region with an iron fist, Pagan Min. Featuring the same epic open world and the freedom to literally do whatever you like, Far Cry 4 has a whole lot more deadly beings aside from humans with guns; the place is teeming with a wide variety of dangerous wildlife that will put your hunting skills to the test. The game also provides you with a whole new set of weapons and vehicles, including the ability to ride an elephant into battle. Far Cry 4 even has a co-op aspect where you can grab a friend to explore the beautiful region and kill Pagan's people along with you.However, the game only has an automatic save (and no checkpoint saves) that severely limits the supposedly sandbox aspect of the game and well, the game has unskippable cutscenes, which frankly can get rather annoying in your second playthrough. Despite its downsides though, Far Cry 4 feels a lot more realistic than most open world games mainly because of the abundant of wildlife that is supposed to be present in a remote region like Kyrat. If you've enjoyed most of the Far Cry games so far, you'll definitely love this one.
Grim Dawn
Grim Dawn is set in a apocalyptic fantasy world where humanity has been pushed to the brink of extinction. The game features an in-depth character development and progression, allowing you to combine any of the six unique classes to from a dual class character, using the game's Devotion system to unlock powerful secondary effects for your skills, as well as equip a wide variety of weapons and armor, each of which can be further enhanced.The hack-and-slash combat in this game is incredibly visceral as well, making it very satisfying to slay your enemies. There are even factions that you can curry favor with and quests that have outcomes depending on your choices while you lend a hand to help various huamn enclaves to rebuild the world. Grim Dawn can also be played via its multiplayer mode (up to 4 players), which will give you challenges that emphasize more strongly on teamwork.
In short, Grim Dawn is, as claimed by many, one of the best ARPGs of all time. Many people have went as far as to say that this game is so much better than Diablo 3. So, if you've played games like Diablo 3 before and thought they were good, well, once you play this game, you'll have your mind completely blown by how amazing this is. No joke!
