Age of Conan: Unchained vs Mob Wars: La Cosa Nostra
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.
Mob Wars: La Cosa Nostra
Mob Wars: La Cosa Nostra is definitely the perfect game to play if you are looking for an alternative to your favorite game, Mafia Wars or any other games like it, including Mafia Inc. It is similar in gameplay to Mafia Wars where you'll set off to build your criminal empire from the ground up by doing jobs, earning weapons, armor and vehicles, and recruiting a crew. However, this game has a much more polished interface maybe because this game came out later.It is also slightly more social due to its Elite Mobster feature where you can ask friends to help out just so you can gain some extra stat boosts. The game provides PvP, a guild-like feature called Syndicate, a pretty deep character customization, and plenty of cities for you to extend your criminal reach to. New content are added weekly as well.
Despite being somewhat text-based and old-timey, Mob Wars: La Cosa Nostra is still played by many all over the world and has entertained many more through the years. It's the perfect casual RPG you can play in small bursts throughout the day.
