Monster Hunter Stories vs Neverwinter Nights
Monster Hunter Stories
Monster Hunter Stories is a Pokemon-like version of the famous Monster Hunter game franchise where you venture into monster nests to collect eggs, hatch them into a wide variety of monsters, assemble the best of the hatchlings into teams and challenge the game's AI or other players via the multiplayer mode to battle. The combat system in this iconic series has been reworked to fit its new gameplay, opting for a turn-based, rock-paper-scissors combat system that is the series' first. Best yet, you can even get into customizing the skills and attributes of the monster hatchlings you get by breeding. And of course, the game is made complete with an exciting storyline that will keep you hooked to the game til the very end.Monster Hunter Series is honestly a breath of fresh air from the usual action-adventure gameplay you might be familair with. This unique combination of features also made this game a great entry point for newcomers looking to get into the Monster Hunter game series.
Neverwinter Nights
Neverwinter Nights is one of the most popular adventure RPGs of all time. The game is unfortunately quite old and the aging game engine is very noticable in today's PC rigs. That said, the game is still as great as it was before. Granted that there are some parts that they could have improved... or should I say removed, such as the grindfest at the start of the base game's campaign, all of these little downsides are well compensated with the game's brilliant Hordes of the Underdark expansion campaign as well as the mind-blowing amount of player-made mods, especially those adventure modules, which drastically expanded the lifespan of the game.Neverwinter Nights is the sort of timeless games that you can enjoy even after the world has long moved on to other better games. With mods, the game will definitely stick around for years to come.
