Daybreak Legends: Origin vs Hyper Light Drifter
Daybreak Legends: Origin
Daybreak Legends: Origin is an astounding mobile MMORPG that not only has hours after hours of engaging content to keep you engrossed but it also treats you to some really nice eye-candy with its gorgeous, console-level graphics.Like any self-respecting PC MMORPG, Daybreak Legends offers you a vast world to explore, a unique lineup of classes to play as, guilds to join, dungeons to plunder for loot, and an epic story-driven adventure to enjoy! However, there are some things that many players have complained about, such as not being able to customize how their characters look - everyone with the same class will look the same, or that framerate drops are pretty common, especially if you're using an older device.
Despite its predictable storyline, Daybreak Legends: Origin has some really nice visuals and a fun gameplay. If mobile MMORPGs are your thing, you'll want to give this game a try.
Hyper Light Drifter
Hyper Light Drifter is an action-adventure RPG with a very unique pixel-based art style and a fun gameplay that will keep you coming back for more. The storyline in this game is pretty bleak since you play as a drifter who happens to have an odd but vicious disease that keeps haunting your thoughts and dodging your every move. By traveling to the dark and savage lands of Buried Time, you hope to find a way to finally be free of this illness.Being ill, you aren't exactly in your fighting prime and so, instead of relying on your frailing strength, combat in this game mainly involves dashing away to avoid blows and trying to strike the enemy in between dashes. In some way, it may feel like being the less burly underdog in a WWE match. There are plenty of weapons to help you though, along with a variety of incredible skills which you can master.
The world you play in is also quite vast, with plenty of hidden nooks and crannies - usually with a bonus reward in them - for you to find. In addition to the story mode, there is a horde mode (endless) as well where you can truly put your combat skills to the test. However, one of the best things about this game is the soundtrack which somehow seems to complement the game's graphics and its overall atmosphere perfectly.
With the unique pixel art and the old-school feel, Hyper Light Drifter may not be everyone's cup of tea, but if you do enjoy such games, you'll find that this game is truly a hidden indie gem.
