Dead by Daylight vs The Forest
Dead by Daylight
Dead by Daylight is a rather interesting multiplayer game because it uses a 4-vs-1 where the 1 player plays as the Killer in the first-person view while the other 4 players take on the role of the Survivors who will have more situational awareness by playing in third person view. Each Killer/ Survivor will have their own progression system, allowing players to customize their character to their play styles and since each level is procedurally generated, predictability isn't exactly a word in this game's dictionary.The best part about the gameplay though is that the Survivors can actually choose to try to escape from the Killing Grounds together or in their own separate ways. It doesn't force you to cooperate with other Survivors and well, frankly, the axiom that goes "there is strength in numbers" may not ring true in this game... after all, by needing to locate only one of you, the Killer would have found and slayed all the Survivors in a single go.
Aside from the brilliant gameplay, Dead by Daylight also has the perfectly creepy atmosphere to match its somewhat gory theme. This is definitely not a game for the weak-hearted! However, the game has had a major technical fault which apparently wiped the progress of many players. Not to mention, playing in this game can be frustrating at times especially whenever either the survivors or the killer bring in overpowered add-ons which will tilt the game heavily in one side's favor. In fact, you can easily know who will win within the first few minutes of the game.
So, as amazing as the game concept is, Dead By Daylight still needs to do a ton of improvement, especially fix all of their game bugs, for it to be a game worth buying. That said, if you're interested to give it a try, you can wait for its Free-to_play weekends or you can buy it during a massive discount.
The Forest
The Forest is a survival horror game where you play as the lone survivor of a plane crash only to find yourself in a mysterious jungle infested with man-eating mutants. To survive, you'll need to build a shelter, explore the forest to seek out vital resources and defend yourself from any mutants you come across. There is a pretty in-depth crafting system to help you survive in the wilderness that The Forest brings. You can even play the game through a stealthier approach, opting to avoid any enemies rather than engaging them head-on.You can even play cooperatively with up to 7 of your friends or head over to the multiplayer server and try surviving against other possibly hostile survivors as well. So, do you think you can make a living for yourself in The Forest and possibly find a way to escape from it? Play The Forest now and find out!
