Divinity: Original Sin 2 vs Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
Divinity: Original Sin 2
Divinity: Original Sin 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to one of the best most recent classic adventure-RPGs. In this game, you can play as one of six races. In fact, you can create very odd characters, such as a flesh-eating Elf for example, and discover how the world react to you. The game also features the same exciting party-based gameplay where you can forge closer ties with your companions and work with them to use whatever advantage you get, including working the environment to your favor, during one of the game's many turn-based battles. You can play the game with up to 4 players online to enjoy a split-screen multiplayer for even more fun.Divinity: Original Sin 2 is also very encouraging of mods and the mod community in general due to the support added to the game which allows players to easily find fan-made mods that they like as well as to create mods of their own. This definitely adds at least a couple tens of hours on top of what already is a pretty lengthy game.
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen casts you into the role of an adventurer leading a band of three AI companions (a.k.a. Pawns) as you set off into a huge and gorgeous open world in search of fame, glory and treasures. One of the main selling points in this game is the incredibly well-designed combat system where you'll actually need to approach your battles and your opponents strategically rather than simply rush head-on. Find out the weaknesses of your enemies and attack them at their achilles' heel.The game also has some of the most amazing AI learning systems in place where the combat style of each Pawn will change depending on the traits learned from the player. In other words, you can literally train your Pawns to fill in the roles you need them to be. Whether you'll train them as a versatile fighter or to play a very specific role in your group... well, that's entirely up to you. Players will even have a ton of options to choose from when it comes to customizing their characters.
Despite the slightly weaker storyline, Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen is one of the best monster-hunting and slaying RPGs out there where the action-based gameplay feels smooth and realistic enough to immerse you completely during intense battles with monstrous creatures. If this sounds just like a game you'd like to play, be sure to give the game a try!
