Star Citizen vs Watch Dogs
Star Citizen
Star Citizen is an incredibly ambitious and yet highly anticipated (and not to mention, hyped-up especially players who simply adore the genre) project to create the world's very first open world, sandbox game that's set not only in space but also on the many different planets and other locations that you happen to land on/dock to. The game will be pretty massive and it is developed on an as grand a scale as an indie company possibly can. The end product - the game's currently in early access - might end up looking like a Star Wars/Star Trek-like world that's equally in-depth and likely as diverse. Of course, the science-fiction/futuristic feel simply adds to the enormity of the game.However, being the type of game that even triple-A companies have never yet attempted before, the developers have drawn some flak in regard to the chances of actually finishing the game development process and giving their players - the people who had bought and funded the game - a complete game to play. Many critics think that these players will get burned in the end, but for someone who has grown up somewhat obsessed with almost every "space frontier"-type series ever made, I do hope that Star Citizen will be able to reach its true potential even if that means the downloads will take a painfully long time to complete.
Watch Dogs
Watch Dogs is the sort of game that's not only fun to play but also give us an insight of a potentially dystopian future. This game slips you into the shoes of hacker extraordinaire, Aiden Pierce, whose criminal past had finally caught up to him, resulting in a terrible family tragedy. Now, he's on the hunt for the culprits behind it all and he has the Chicago's city network and its wealth of information in the palm of his hands. There are over 30 different weapons for you to use along with more than 65 vehicles to explore the massive city in. The choices you make in the game will also affect the virtual environment and the people around you, possibly even creating an unexpected ripple effect. This game is a multiplayer game as well, providing players with cooperative gameplay or an open world multiplayer action.Watch Dogs is one of the best new game series to have emerged with a fresh new game concept and fun game mechanics to play with. If you think you'd enjoy hackng and shooting all rolled into a single game, then you will definitely enjoy playing Watch Dogs.
