Darkest Dungeon vs FATE
Darkest Dungeon
Darkest Dungeon is a hardcore turn-based dungeon crawler with a rather unique gothic theme that explores the psychological stresses of adventuring as well as a beautiful, comic-like art style. Play through the more realistic (not glorified) life of an adventurer as you will not only fight challenging and devious enemies, but also face a host of problems that most adventure RPGs simply turn a blind eye to such as the stress and other mental of the day-to-day of an adventurer, famine, disease and of course, the dark feeling that arose when whatever you do doesn't really seem to matter.The game is pretty much story-driven (as you might ahve expected), but it does also feature a rather innovative turn-based combat as well as over 16 different hero classes for you to play as and recruit to your party. As mentioned, the game's a hardcore game as well - this means permadeath, procedural dungeons and practically endless replay value!
If you think you'd enjoy a more narrative-driven dungeon crawler that's very different from all the other similar games you might have played, Darkest Dungeon is definitely a game you'll want to get.
FATE
FATE is kind of like the spiritual successor of the successful dungeon crawling franchise, Torchlight. Return to the glorious days of action RPGs by diving into the game's procedurally-generated dungeons, slaying monsters, stuffing loot into your backpacks, and developing your character from a scrawny adventurer into a battle-hardened one. You can also have fun with the game's trading system or you can simply try your luck with the NPC shopkeepers in the town of Grove. Like Torchlight, you can even adopt a pet - a dog or a cat - and evolve it into stronger creatures.FATE is the very first of an incredible series that doesn't only allow you to relive classic action RPGs, but also bring back feelings of nostalgia so strong that you might just cave in to your emotions. So, if you love dungeon crawlers, you'll want to grab this game for your Steam library.
