Darksiders II vs Hollow Knight
Darksiders II
Darksiders II follows in the footsteps of the original game in many ways, particularly the in-depth character progression system and an extensive skill tree, but this time around, you'll be playing as Death, the most formidable of all the four legendary Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Set off across a massive open world in order to redeem your brother's name, you'll stumble upon an ancient grudge that may decimate all of creation. Unlike War, Death is a lot more agile, allowing you to perform some impressive acrobatic acts which may unlock previously unaccessible paths.Despite the improved replayability, Darksiders II is simply that sort of game that you'll probably not return to often but is great enough to leave a distinct feeling and memory with you for life. And well, you get to play as Death himself... what's not awesome about that?
Hollow Knight
Hollow Knight is a cartoonish yet somewhat hardcore 2D side-scrolling action game that will see you travelling across the dark yet wondrous world of the Hallownest, filled with huge hallow caverns, ancient ruined cities, deadly wastelands and more. Unlike most games, the combat system in this one is based on precision and timing, rather than blindly hacking and slashing, and of course, different enemy types will require different strategies. Your character will also have access to some really powerful skills and abilities by equipping Charms.Not to mention, as opposed to simply giving you a map of sorts, you actually need to chart your own journey with mapping tools which can be bought in the game. And if that's not enough, the game even has a super challeging difficulty level, the Steel Soul Mode, which will truly put your skills to the test.
Despite being developed by only 2 people, Hollow Knight somehow managed to nail everything right on the head, be it its gameplay, the melancholic atmosphere of the game which helps to tell the story of a ruined civilization, a beautiful, dark world to explore, as well as a robust and in-depth character progression system. If this sounds like something you'd like, you might want to drop by and take a look.
