Gothic vs Profane
Gothic
Gothic is one of the few rare dark fantasy games that is ruthless, cruel and challenging enough to truly put you in your place in life. You are not the hero; you are not a chosen one; you are just some miserable wrench who found himself in the penal colony in Myrtana, mining for ores day in and out with the rest of the wrenches in there. The colony is filled with tons of AI characters, including both guards and the prisoners, that you can interact and gradually work together with in order to secure some extra benefits or eventually find a way to break out. Oh, and expect to get beaten up a lot.All in all, Gothic is not your average rose-glass-tinted RPGs and surprisingly, there isn't a lot of this sort of games out there. However, our list of similar games should provide you with the best similar games that you'll ever find.
Profane
Profane is a hardcore bullet-hell game where you’ll battle challenging bosses in arenas in hopes of finding the source of the corruption that has gripped your tribe and cleansing it to save your people. The game has a pretty high skill ceiling and can be quite unforgiving but this makes every victory you earn so much sweeter!An aptly-titled game for sure, since the game can be relentless and punishing, which may or may not result in blurting out some form of profanity as you play, Profane is a game that is as relentlessly punishing as it is hardcore. Besides the high skill ceiling, the somewhat confusing storyline, and the not-ideal default controls for keyboard and mouse players, the game is exceptionally well-made, has some pretty cool graphics and animations, and features a ton -and I do mean a ton- of unique bosses that will definitely challenge you.
So, if you love playing bullet-hells and would like a challenge, Profane is one game you’ll want to keep your eye on!
