Far Cry 4 vs The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Far Cry 4
Far Cry 4 casts you into the role of Ajay Ghale, a person who travelled to the remote mountainous region of Kyrat to fulfill his mother's dying wish only to find himself trapped in a civil war between the rebels and the dictator that ruled the region with an iron fist, Pagan Min. Featuring the same epic open world and the freedom to literally do whatever you like, Far Cry 4 has a whole lot more deadly beings aside from humans with guns; the place is teeming with a wide variety of dangerous wildlife that will put your hunting skills to the test. The game also provides you with a whole new set of weapons and vehicles, including the ability to ride an elephant into battle. Far Cry 4 even has a co-op aspect where you can grab a friend to explore the beautiful region and kill Pagan's people along with you.However, the game only has an automatic save (and no checkpoint saves) that severely limits the supposedly sandbox aspect of the game and well, the game has unskippable cutscenes, which frankly can get rather annoying in your second playthrough. Despite its downsides though, Far Cry 4 feels a lot more realistic than most open world games mainly because of the abundant of wildlife that is supposed to be present in a remote region like Kyrat. If you've enjoyed most of the Far Cry games so far, you'll definitely love this one.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild brings you a whole new and groundbreaking adventure where you are free to explore the wild, ruined kingdom of Hyrule whichever way you like, though for some places, you may need to equip Link with the appropriate outfits so he can brave the elements in that region. There are tons of Shrines of Trials scattered across the world for you to find, but be careful, there are plenty of dangers that lurk in the wilderness as well and you'd be wise to be constantly vigilant. Interestingly, with so many changes in place, the game still retains the core of a Legend of Zelda game where you'll get to explore the catacombs within these Shrines and possibly emerge with special items and other equally fantastic rewards.The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is definitely a brilliant and somewhat revolutionary addition to the renowned Legend of Zelda game franchise. If you're a fan of the series, you'll want to buy it... like right now.
