Age of Conan: Unchained vs Deadlight
Age of Conan: Unchained
Age of Conan: Unchained is an MMORPG that's based on the timeless classic comic and TV series, Conan the Barbarian. Featuring one of the best fantasy-themed lore, the game also has a very unique action-based combat system that, despite its steep learning curve, is comparable to that of TERA... though, we'd say that combat in this game is much more varied. You can weave spells, attempt to capture battlekeeps with massive siege machines and even enjoy some good ol' mounted combat that is surprisingly not at all too clunky. However, you should bear in mind that this MMO has been around for quite some time, so the graphics in this game might be a tad bit old fashioned.What we love the most about Age of Conan is that the game actually rewards players who go off the beaten track and explore the secret corners of the world that questlines will never bring you to. The shift from being a subscription-based MMO to becoming a free-to-play MMO has been very well-received too, mainly because it injects a certain amount of much-needed players into its population and well, it allows newcomers to try the game out at no cost.
All in all, Age of Conan is a solid MMORPG that is very well-suited for players who like to explore and a challenge. Hardcore fans of Conan may want to try this game out as well, even if it's only to experience the different storylines in the game.
Deadlight
Deadlight is a dark game where you are a ranger called Randall Wayne in a zombie infested world in search of your wife and daughter. Now in Seattle you meet up with a group of refugees heading for what is known to be the last place left: Safe Point. Here your adventure begins, where you must avoid the Shadows (zombies) and the vicious New Law. And this is just the start of your story in this amazing homage to old style side scrolling games.As opposed to most zombie games, here you need to avoid and hide as much as possible as your weapons and supplies are limited. There are lots of cunning traps, places for you to climb, hide and destroy the zombies in your way. The design of the game really grabs you and its many layers and textures really make for a great experience.
