Darksiders II vs Elden Ring
Darksiders II
Darksiders II follows in the footsteps of the original game in many ways, particularly the in-depth character progression system and an extensive skill tree, but this time around, you'll be playing as Death, the most formidable of all the four legendary Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Set off across a massive open world in order to redeem your brother's name, you'll stumble upon an ancient grudge that may decimate all of creation. Unlike War, Death is a lot more agile, allowing you to perform some impressive acrobatic acts which may unlock previously unaccessible paths.Despite the improved replayability, Darksiders II is simply that sort of game that you'll probably not return to often but is great enough to leave a distinct feeling and memory with you for life. And well, you get to play as Death himself... what's not awesome about that?
Elden Ring
Elden Ring is another souls-like adventure created by the masters of dark fantasy and extremely difficult games, FromSoftware. Instead of a restrictive world, you’ll be treated to a vast expanse full of explorable open fields and massive dungeons. As the Tarnished, a character you can fully customize, you’ll fight all manner of enemies, from wyverns and armored knights to gigantic, grotesque beings straight out of a dark fantasy novel. You can play according to your preferred playstyle; do so by combining the game’s massive roster of weapons, armor, and magic so you can create the type of warrior you want, whether you’re aiming for a close-quarters combatant or a spell user.The game features an epic, multilayered story told in fragments. Its lore was made with inputs from renowned A Song of Ice and Fire creator George R.R. Martin, guaranteeing that every castle you explore, enemy you encounter, and dungeon you conquer will yield a rich backstory. Elden Ring also features an asynchronous online element, along with its direct multiplayer, where you can explore its world with friends and fellow Tarnished.
