Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom vs The Witcher
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!
The Witcher
The Witcher is one of the most world acclaimed action RPGs of its time. Inspired by the story and its fantasy world from the renowned Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski, The Witcher casts you as a famous mutant swordmaster and a professional monster slayer, Geralt of Rivia, in a non-linear yet intriguing plot filled with difficult decisions and important social topics like racism, politics and genocide. Being an action RPG, the game offers you hundreds of special abilities, potions and other magical augmentations in addition to realistic medieval sword-fighting moves to use in order to tactically take down your enemies depending on your own preferences, character build and play styles.The Witcher has come a long way since its first release back in 2008 and to celebrate its accomplishments, the developer, CD Projekt Red, has created a premium edition of the game complete with a rework of several aspects of the game, and include a director's cut, game guides, music CDs and a whole lot of other goodies. The game experience itself, despite having old-timey graphics, is already worth the cost but if you can get a ton of othe freebies, well, why not?
