Neverwinter Nights vs Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom
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.
Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom
Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom is the highly anticipated sequel to the brilliant, story-driven role-playing adventure game. As opposed to continuing the previous game's storyline (not that the first game ended on a cliffhanger or anything), the game sets off on an entirely different yet equally story-driven route by narrating the adventures of a young king, Evan, who was overthrown in a coup but still aspires to establish a new kingdom of his own. There will be an whole new cast of characters to meet and interact with in this journey and eventually, you will need to, together with Evan, confront the dark forces that threaten the good people of the world.Ni No Kuni 2 certainly outdid itself this time around! In fact, the game is so incredibly immersive to the point where you sometimes forget that this is actually a game and not an anime movie, especially considering how well the outstanding visuals and music blended together. This is a game that fans of story-driven gameplay would greatly enjoy!
