The Culling Of The Cows vs V Rising: which should you buy?
For Filipino gamers on a tight budget or with older PCs, 'The Culling Of The Cows' is a decent short-term distraction (3-hour playtime) with very low system requirements (even Windows XP) and a cheap price tag. However, its abysmal community rating (2.0/5) warns of poor quality. In contrast, 'V Rising' offers a vastly superior experience with a 3.7/5 rating, longer 7-hour campaign, and full multiplayer/co-op support, justifying its higher price. The trade-off is demanding specs: you'll need at least a GTX 750 Ti and 12GB RAM. For most Filipino buyers who can afford a modern gaming PC, 'V Rising' is the clear winner. But if you're stuck with an old office PC or simply want a quick, cheap game, 'The Culling Of The Cows' might fill a few hours—just don't expect much.
