Crowfall vs Wurm Online
Crowfall
Crowfall boasts as being the world's first throne war simulator where it mixes the best elements from the popular "Game of Thrones" TV show with MMOs like EVE Online. The game features an open world PvP, a player-driven economy, action-based combat and destructible environments which you can then use to your advantage when fortifying your own castle or attacking your enemy's castle. Crowfall's campaigns are pretty unique due to its varying campaign rulesets as well. Each different ruleset will give you an entirely different experience of the game. The game difficulty will even gradually increase over time, making teamwork paramount to survival.Crowfall also has a sandbox element to it in the form of its Eternal Kingdom. In this game, you'll be given a piece of land in an instanced zone to build your empire. Much like a Tetris or a jigsaw puzzle game, you can then buy extra parcels of land that comes in different shapes and sizes and add them to your Eternal kingdom to expand it. You could even grant your land to appointed vassals to rule as they please as long as they pay their dues to you, the King or Queen, and interact with your "subjects" turning your Eternal Kingdom into some sort of a social hub for you and your friends or guildmates to hang out.
Let's not forget about Crowfall's ridiculous (in a good way) amount of character class customization and advancement, allowing you to build your character literally whichever way you like.
Sounds like just the game you've been looking for? Well, if you would like to experience a Game of Thrones-like political intrigue coupled with some epic warfare that plays out on a massive scale, Crowfall's the game you'd want to keep a close eye on.
Wurm Online
Wurm Online is a unique sandbox/adventure RPG that many has been touting as being the most realistic one ever. The game is not a solo survival game unlike Minecraft. Instead, you are given the opportunity to build your own settlement - literally from the ground up - and help it to grow. Being an MMO, you can enlist the help of other players to develop your settlement from being little more than a camp with a few shabby and lopsided huts into something that passing bandits might be eyeing hungrily at.There is also an adventure element in this game where you get to venture of into the wilderness to fight a variety of creatures to earn some loot and to level up. Players who enjoy clashing swords with their fellow players can even hop into a PvP world server to enjoy some open world PvP. That said, things will go by a bit slowly if you are playing the game alone though. Wurm Online is an MMO for a reason!
The game has nothing but a fun and great experience to offer to its players and best yet, it's free to play! You can opt for a premium membership if you like just so you can play on multiple servers but, as mentioned, the game can be enjoyed without having to spend a cent.
