Digimon Masters Online vs Final Fantasy Awakening
Digimon Masters Online
Digimon Masters Online is an MMORPG that's inspired from the hugely popular (well, at least back in the 90s) Pokemon-like, digital monster-collecting franchise, Digimon. Here, you get to play as a up-and-coming Digimon trainer (if you're starting to see similarities between Pokemon and this game, you're not wrong!) where you will set off on an adventure of your own across a beautiful virtual world teeming with a wide variety of digital monsters for you to capture and collect. These monsters can also grow alongside their trainers and eventually evolve into better, and usually much cooler-looking, versions of themselves. All of these exciting features are unfortunately wrapped around a pretty standard MMORPG gameplay though, which does make the game seem like a ton of wasted potential.That being said, Digimon Masters Online is an MMORPG that players will really love especially if they like games with a "pet" (the word is used subjectively)-collection aspect. It's no Pokemon Go, admittedly, but it's really close to experiencing what it is to be a Digimon trainer.
Final Fantasy Awakening
Final Fantasy Awakening is one of the many official, third-party spin-offs for the incredibly popular Final Fantasy game franchise. Featuring a 3D ARPG gameplay that many casual MMO gamers would probably be familiar with, this game offers players with a brand-new storyline set in the world similar to Final Fantasy Type-0. Aside from having plenty of the franchise's iconic characters and Eidolons, Final Fantasy Awakening also boasts of containing over 200 high quality CGs that help in the visualization of the narrative as well as the gameplay.The game is a party-based RPG, where you'll need to recruit heroes to your Class Zero team. However, the heroes that you choose will also have positive or negative reactions to the other members of the team - this is called hero's bond, and having a good symbiotic bond can be crucial to assembling a much more superior team. Besides the many PvE elements, the game has a strong focus on PvP as well, providing players with intense cross-server PKs and Arenas to showcase their team and their skills.
As exciting as all of these sound, Final Fantasy Awakening is however only available in selected countries in the South-East Asian region for the moment. It is possible that the game may eventually make its way to the Western countries, but if you simply can't wait, using a mobile VPN is a way to go or you can simply grab the game's APK (or the iTunes equivalent) off a third-party website.
