State of Decay 2 vs Watch Dogs
State of Decay 2
State of Decay 2 is the highly-anticipated and long-awaited sequel to one of the top zombie-survival action-shooters out there, State of Decay. Unlike the original game, this installment has a bit more community management in it rather than simply trying to survive as a lone wolf. Each survivor has their own set of traits, skills, and attitudes that you'll need to keep balanced so that your community will thrive rather than succumb to in-fighting and general discontent.In this game, you can assign tasks to each survivor, upgrade your base, help the community solve its issues (through completing personal quests, heeding advice, or resolving disputes), and of course, recruit more survivors to join your band. State of Decay 2 will also feature a co-op mode - It's about time! - where you can try to survive with up to 3 of your friends. Not to mention, like its predecessor, the game is set in a massive open world that you're free to explore.
State of Decay 2 is definitely among the few biggest games that fans of zombie-survival games but I'm sad to say that although the game does improve on the original, the improvements are just too little and too insignificant. The game is still as shallow as before and the game gets boring and stale pretty quickly (just a couple of hours in). The game might still be worth buying on a steep discount.
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.
