Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning vs Persona 5
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is an amazing action-based RPG which we frankly think was one of those RPG gems that were somehow overlooked. Even with its age in mind, the game still does well to cater to fans of RPGs today, giving them a memorable storyline based on a universe created by none other than the legend in fantasy novels, R.A. Salvatore; a host of interesting characters to interact with, and a massive open world to explore. Character customization is pretty extensive here, allowing you to change your character's class, skills and abilities to fit your play style. You can change your character's equipment as well.The amazing part about this game, aside from its immersive storyline and world, is how seemlessly it has managed to integrate magic-wielding with swordplay (it doesn't exactly have to be swords though) in its exhilarting action combat. It does make you feel like you are in the shoes of your character.
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning may not be a "Skyrim"-sort of game, but it's incredibly in-depth, able to offer you hundreds of hours of play time at the very least, especially if you are determined to complete every side quest and explore every corner of the beautiful world. It's definitely worth every cent you spent on it!
Persona 5
Persona 5 is a pretty unique RPG that is based on the thought-provoking, Jungian concept of "self" where people are forced to wear masks to protect their inner self in order to feel some twisted sort of belonging in the current society. Apparently, the protagonist which you will be playing, along with your group of high school classmates/companions, realized that they have the ability to enter people's hearts, help them rip off their masks and confront their vulnerabilities to awaken their inner power which can then be used for the greater good. Dubbed as the Phantom Thieves, these students aim to change the world to their perception and to remove the masks that modern society wears.Persona 5 is the sort of adventure-RPG that seems to be able to really dig into the recesses of your mind and makes you really think about what's really going on in the society today. This is the type of games the modern people need and if you'd like to go on thought-provoking journey, this is definitely the type of game to play.
