Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen vs Horizon Forbidden West
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen casts you into the role of an adventurer leading a band of three AI companions (a.k.a. Pawns) as you set off into a huge and gorgeous open world in search of fame, glory and treasures. One of the main selling points in this game is the incredibly well-designed combat system where you'll actually need to approach your battles and your opponents strategically rather than simply rush head-on. Find out the weaknesses of your enemies and attack them at their achilles' heel.The game also has some of the most amazing AI learning systems in place where the combat style of each Pawn will change depending on the traits learned from the player. In other words, you can literally train your Pawns to fill in the roles you need them to be. Whether you'll train them as a versatile fighter or to play a very specific role in your group... well, that's entirely up to you. Players will even have a ton of options to choose from when it comes to customizing their characters.
Despite the slightly weaker storyline, Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen is one of the best monster-hunting and slaying RPGs out there where the action-based gameplay feels smooth and realistic enough to immerse you completely during intense battles with monstrous creatures. If this sounds just like a game you'd like to play, be sure to give the game a try!
Horizon Forbidden West
Horizon Forbidden West lets you join Aloy in the 2nd part of her journey. This time, you will explore the picturesque and majestic yet perilous frontier of the now-ruined city of San Francisco set in the far-flung future. You’ll recognize various landmarks, sunken or otherwise, including the Golden Gate Bridge.As the series heroine, you will investigate the sources of vicious storms and blight, threatening to destroy the land and wipe out the remaining enclaves of humanity and life on Earth itself. Aloy needs to restore balance to the world and uncover the mysteries behind these events. Unfortunately, things aren’t straightforward since she has to contend with new and familiar enemies. You’ll need to deal with snake-like machines, humongous elephants, as well as those that exist underwater. Moreover, hostile human tribes are more advanced since they now mount machines of their own and are capable of controlling combat-class machines bent on destruction. Thankfully, Aloy still has her trusty bow and spear, able to take out enemies using her arsenal of arrows and advanced combat abilities.
Horizon Forbidden West is one of PlayStation’s first exclusives in this new console generation (though it’s compatible with the PS4), and it promises to be another adventure worth undertaking.
