✓ Fits the third-person Action RPGs cluster, with deep RPG systems, action RPG combat and adventure storytelling

≠ Where it differs: brings puzzle design, strong narrative focus and dark, oppressive atmosphere

The castle is the achievement: densely built, worth exploring on its own terms, and full of small detail. Spell-chaining combat is more involved than expected. Outside it, the open world follows a familiar checklist of camps and puzzles, and the main story resolves in a rush that leaves several threads sitting unfinished.

Released 22 years after Devil May Cry.

A mid-budget RPG with a colonial-era setting that is genuinely unusual, and diplomacy that can resolve most quests without combat if you invest in it. Faction reputation matters. Production values show the budget — environments repeat heavily between regions, animation is stiff, and combat never becomes more than adequate.

Released 18 years after Devil May Cry.
