Atonement: Scourge of Time vs The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

In a world where the last king fell centuries ago, law has crumbled and settlements have dwindled. The Angelkind have vanished, leaving humanity to fend for itself among hostile bandits and wild creatures. The holy Order of Atonement strives to unite the fragile villages, but whispers of a Vindicator—a punisher of sins—loom on the horizon, promising a final reckoning.
