Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom vs Persona 5
Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom
Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom is the highly anticipated sequel to the brilliant, story-driven role-playing adventure game. As opposed to continuing the previous game's storyline (not that the first game ended on a cliffhanger or anything), the game sets off on an entirely different yet equally story-driven route by narrating the adventures of a young king, Evan, who was overthrown in a coup but still aspires to establish a new kingdom of his own. There will be an whole new cast of characters to meet and interact with in this journey and eventually, you will need to, together with Evan, confront the dark forces that threaten the good people of the world.Ni No Kuni 2 certainly outdid itself this time around! In fact, the game is so incredibly immersive to the point where you sometimes forget that this is actually a game and not an anime movie, especially considering how well the outstanding visuals and music blended together. This is a game that fans of story-driven gameplay would greatly enjoy!
Persona 5
Persona 5 is a pretty unique RPG that is based on the thought-provoking, Jungian concept of "self" where people are forced to wear masks to protect their inner self in order to feel some twisted sort of belonging in the current society. Apparently, the protagonist which you will be playing, along with your group of high school classmates/companions, realized that they have the ability to enter people's hearts, help them rip off their masks and confront their vulnerabilities to awaken their inner power which can then be used for the greater good. Dubbed as the Phantom Thieves, these students aim to change the world to their perception and to remove the masks that modern society wears.Persona 5 is the sort of adventure-RPG that seems to be able to really dig into the recesses of your mind and makes you really think about what's really going on in the society today. This is the type of games the modern people need and if you'd like to go on thought-provoking journey, this is definitely the type of game to play.
