Half Life 2: Episode Two vs Westworld
Half Life 2: Episode Two
Half Life 2: Episode Two continues the storyline of Half Life 2: Episode One (obviously). Playing once again as Dr Gordon Freeman, you set off from City 17 with Alyx Vance in hopes of delivering crucial information to that's left of your fellow resistance scientists. However, to do so, you'll need to cross the dangerous White Forest while having Combine forces hot on your tail.Featuring new weapons, vehicles, and monstrous creatures, Half Life 2: Episode 2 is definitely able to satisfy the masses of fans who are hooked on one of the world's most popular classic game franchise. However, the game apparently ends with a cliffhanger and that Valve, much to the dismay of their fans, has no intentions of finishing the trilogy. This has sparked a rather huge outroar especially when it was leaked that the storyline for Episode 3 has already been written.
Regardless, this game is still a worthwhile purchase despite its years and the incomplete storyline.
Westworld
Westworld is a 2D town management game much like Fallout Shelter, but is set in the dystopian world of HBO's hit TV show, Westworld. In this game, you are given complete access to the official Delos Park Training Simulation (DPTS). The simulation will allow you to not only build and control the park, but also to create, upgrade (in a wide variety of ways) and evolve your AI hosts. There are over 170 different AI hosts you can manufacture and collect, and it is up to you to match the right hosts with the correct guests. The game has many new park locations for you to unlock as well.The game may feel a bit bland due to its idle-like nature - there's no strategy or creativity involved, and a lot of the time, you'll just be tapping to collect stuff. Some have also complained that the host leveling system is very grindy since you'll need to get a ton of hosts just to level one up to its max level, and well, hosts aren't exactly easy to obtain.
That being said, if Westworld is your current obsession, these little issues aren't enough to deter you to give the game a try. The game is free after all.
