Darwin Project vs Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends
Darwin Project
Darwin Project is an early access, third-person battle royale game that combines the game show-theme from The Culling with the unique art style which made Fortnite Battle Royale so easily recognizable. Unlike most battle royale games where you'll have to compete against 99 other players to survive, this game only has 10 players, including yourself. However, the game spices things up with a ton of challenges, much like those featured in the Hunger Games, that are designed to push you to your limits.Not to mention, the game adds a nice tracking mechanism. Players in the game show will leave clues when they pass by an area and you can use those very clues to determine where your prey is heading to or hiding in. There are plenty of fun power-ups that you can collect, including temporary invisibility. Although you can't craft new weapons, the bow and shovel that you get can be upgraded to increase their deadliness.
Best yet, you can also play as the Director of the entire game show. As the Director, your goal is not to survive but to hype things up enough for the crowd to go wild. You are managing an exciting game show, after all. With feedback from the audience, you can decide which zones to drop a nuke on or which zone to freeze over, or even when to drop a "care package" for the participants to fight over.
Darwin Project manages to breathe new life into the slowly-stagnating battle royale genre. It is definitely a fun, thrilling and unique competitive MMO - one that fans of battle royale would just love to play.
Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends
Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends is the latest installment in the expansive hack-and-slash galore, the Dynasty Warrior franchise. The game recounts the tales of the Romance of hte Three Kingdoms where you get to play as the warrior "Lu Bu". There are plenty of hypothetical scenarios that you can experience in this game, along with new playable characters, weapons, and exciting game modes like the reworked Ambition mode and the brand new Challenge mode. You can also play the game cooperatively though many players have complained of issues that mainly revolves around poor controller support.That said, Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends is still a pretty decent game to add to the franchise, though it might not be comparable to their best installment, Dynasty Warriors 4. If you aim to play this game, you might want to check out the console version rather than the PC port.
