Mass Effect vs Undertale
Mass Effect
Mass Effect is a science-fiction-themed where you play as the charismatic leader of an elite squad of three, Commander Shepard, as you set off on an epic adventure across the galaxy to save your civilization and to put an end to the traitorous Saren and his army, or if you're playing the free DLC, the Batarians. Ranging from the character customization to its incredibly-intriguing, open-ended storyline, Mass Effect offers a depth that hasn't been seen before at the time of its release in 2008. You can actually build or destroy relationships with your team members in the game by choosing a dialogue option during conversations as well. Being a space-themed game, you'll even get to explore the vast galaxy and search for crucial minerals on potentially mineral-rich planets.The gameplay in Mass Effect may not be as great as other games of its generation but it's good enough to help carry the game's amazing narrative forward. If you enjoy a good sci-fi story and RPG, Mass Effect is a game you simply mustn't miss out!
Undertale
Undertale is a rather unique RPG mainly because unlike most RPG which "encourages and promotes" violence, this game strives to be different; to be better by allowing you to use whatever persuasive skills you have to negotiate out of danger. Considering that the game is set in an underground world full of monsters, this is something you'll need to pretty often, but of course, if you want to do some killing, you can still do so. As it's not exactly the focus point of the game, the combat system is fairly simple and yet decent. It mainly revolves around accurately timing your attacks and dodges.Undertale also boasts of having an immersive storyline and a host of characters which you can either slay (you murderer!) or make friends with. Heck, according to the game, you can even date a skeleton... an all-bones, no-flesh skeleton!
Undertale definitely gives its players a really nice and unique perspective on the RPG genre. The game's alternative, non-violent paths also make you really think before you start hacking and slashing at the supposedly enemy, making every kill that you think is necessary carries a certain weight. Sounds like a game you'd like to try? Then, you definitely should check it out.
