Final Fantasy XV vs The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Final Fantasy XV
Final Fantasy XV is the latest installment of the main Final Fantasy franchise. In this game, you get to play as Crown Prince Noctis as he embarks on a road trip across gorgeous landscapes and bustling towns in the fictional world of Eos to reclaim his homeland from the grasps of an eternal foe. With a group of colorful characters-slash-friends in a pretty cool- yet expensive-looking car, you'll get to explore every inch of the incredible open world. But of course, you can also alight from the vehicle to walk instead. Similar to previous games, Final Fantasy XV features thrilling, action-based combat that allows you to channel the power of your ancestors as you hack and slash your way through throngs of enemies with your companions by your side. There are also magic and team-based attacks that you can employ in your battles.The game has a rather differnent feel and tone to it this time around, but it still retains the epic-ness that makes it a worthy sequel in the Final Fantasy franchise. The game is currently available on consoles, but for PC gamers, you might still need to wait a while before you can get it on Steam.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is possibly the best The Witcher game yet, winning praises and accolades ever since its release. Honestly, you'll may never see another game that's as gorgeous and as nuanced as The Witcher 3. The story-driven gameplay, where every choice you make matters, is excellent; the voice acting spot-on; and the action-based combat is as tactically charged and varied as ever. The world this game is set in is also massive and the underwater combat, albeit a bit simplistic, sets precedence for other potential games to follow (We're looking at you Fallout 4... or maybe 5!). The modes of travel is as brilliant as well - whether you prefer horseback, sailing or both, you'll actually get to enjoy the journeying process due to the realism of it all. In fact, some may even opt for the old-school method of travel over "fast travelling".Although there were some complaints about the incredibly limited inventory at first, the developers were fast enough to address the problem in a patch within the week of the game's release. This only show how much importance is placed on player feedback and well, the developers also win extra points for producing a DRM-free version for GoG.com.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has been claimed by many as the best RPG of all time and we definitely have to agree on this one. The game is just magnificent from end to end and if you really enjoy story rich RPGs, you simply must buy this game and try it out!
