Pillars of Eternity vs The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Pillars of Eternity
Pillars of Eternity is a fun adventure/dungeon crawler-like game that sets you on a journey across a rich fantasy realm with your group of companions as you search for monster-filled dungeons to raid and get treasures from. Experience a gameplay that's similar to many of the classic RPGs you've known and loved. You'll even get to play as one of eleven classes ranging from the Cipher to the Rogue; and as one of six races including unique ones like Aumaua, Godlike and Orlan.The best part in this game is definitely the part where every action you make will have consequences and every faction you ally yourself to will affect the path of your overall narrative. This offers up plenty of possibilities for players to enjoy the game again and again.
Despite being an indie game, Pillars of Eternity has enjoyed success after success since its successful funding at Kickstarter and honestly, we think it deserves all the good things that are going its way. The game is simply a brilliant masterpiece that pays homage to classic RPGs and well, the dev team is amazing as well.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is one of the most highly acclaimed games of the decade, putting it on par with the success that more current games have managed to enjoy - The Witcher 3, for example. The game puts you into the role of the dragonborn, a hero who is able to defeat dragons on an equal footing due to the powers he/she is able to tap into. The game has plenty of depth when it comes to its lore, factions, and of course, the game map where you basically can explore anywhere you like as long as you can find a way to reach it. Of course, all of that brilliant gameplay and environment is well-packaged with breathtaking graphics and iconic musical scores that many still praise to this day.Granted that the game has plenty of annoying bugs that persist until today, it is not surprising for Skyrim to have over 200 Game of the Year Awards mainly because the game just blows everyone's minds when it first came out. After all, it literally redefined the open world genre. Not to mention, even with the hundreds of hours of original content to enjoy, the game has a thriving modding community that lets you eke out hundreds more hours from Skyrim.
