Arcania: Gothic 4 vs Elden Ring
Arcania: Gothic 4
Arcania: Gothic 4 returns as the fourth and possibly the final installment of the Gothic series. This time, you take on the role of a nameless hero who just had his village destroyed by the king's paladins. However, as you set off on your quest of vengeance, you gradually realize that this event is driven by a malicious hidden power. The storyline is so much better in this installment due to the many surprises, plot twists and cliffhangers, and it does have a pretty nice combat system.However, many players put some flak to this game mainly because the game isn't exactly "Gothic" but pretending to be by using the "Gothic" name, but partly because the game does have some boring quests. That said, the game is still a pretty decent RPG.
Elden Ring
Elden Ring is another souls-like adventure created by the masters of dark fantasy and extremely difficult games, FromSoftware. Instead of a restrictive world, you’ll be treated to a vast expanse full of explorable open fields and massive dungeons. As the Tarnished, a character you can fully customize, you’ll fight all manner of enemies, from wyverns and armored knights to gigantic, grotesque beings straight out of a dark fantasy novel. You can play according to your preferred playstyle; do so by combining the game’s massive roster of weapons, armor, and magic so you can create the type of warrior you want, whether you’re aiming for a close-quarters combatant or a spell user.The game features an epic, multilayered story told in fragments. Its lore was made with inputs from renowned A Song of Ice and Fire creator George R.R. Martin, guaranteeing that every castle you explore, enemy you encounter, and dungeon you conquer will yield a rich backstory. Elden Ring also features an asynchronous online element, along with its direct multiplayer, where you can explore its world with friends and fellow Tarnished.
