Fallout 2 vs Kenshi
Fallout 2
Fallout 2 is the next exciting sequel to one of the world's largest post-apocalyptic-themed RPG franchise, Fallout. Featuring the franchise's iconic open world where you are free to do whatever you like (you can opt to not follow the storyline as well), this sequel is jam-packed with even more varied characters, creatures and storylines that brings out the humanity in its players as they traverse the vast wasteland.As usual, the game provides players with in-depth character progressions in the form of its hallmark S.P.E.C.I.A.L. traits system along with the range of improvable skills that are often critical to ensure your survival in the harsh post-fallout world.
Fallout 2 doesn't really deviate much from the original first game, perhaps mainly because the developers are trying to play it safe, but it is still a great game to play.
Kenshi
Kenshi is an open world, semi-sandbox, party-based RPG that offers players an completely open-ended gameplay rather than opting to force players to go through a storyline. You can be anyone you like in this game, be it an honest trader, an adventurer, a bandit or others. Scavenge important resources, including weapons and armor, from corpses and use them for your own. Recruit new companions from towns, build an outpost of your own, and grow it to accomodate more of your companions. Of course, as your little town thrives, bandits and jealous rivals will attack you and you'll need to make sure all your people have what they need to defend the town and repel the invaders.Sounds like fun? Well, it definitely is. However, Kenshi, being a pretty ambitious early access game, does have it fair share of flaws. The game still has plenty of glitches still and can be really hard to get into, especially at the beginning of the game where you literally have no idea what you need to do.
That said, the game is very unique because it has a pretty rare theme and its gameplay - a combination of party-based survival/ base building - is also oddly rare among the other games on the market. So, you might want to check this game out.
