Drakensang Online vs Path of Exile
Drakensang Online
Drakensang Online is an extremely well-made browser-based MMORPG of the dungeon-crawling variety set in the ruined world of Dracania. Based on the hugely popular series of Drakensang games, this game features tons of dungeons (of course), 4 different modes of PvP, 4 different character classes, as well as various collectable pets and mounts. The game mechanics are pretty awesome too despite being a browser game. In fact, Drakensang Online is possibly the only dungeon crawler that you can play on your browser that is not 2D or text-based!However, like most games, there are some obvious downsides to Drakensang Online, including the lack of shared inventory between characters, the lack of trading between players and well, the quests can get a bit repetitive as you reach the higher levels. Many features in this game requires premium currency, Andermants, too, but it's good to know that at least F2P players can sink in the necessary time and effort to farm for them. Due to this, the game is not exactly a P2W but rather a "pay to get convenience".
Overall, Drakensang Online a great dungeon crawler to play, particularly if you enjoy games like Path of Exile. It may be the "lesser" version of PoE but well, you can play this game directly on your browser - what's not awesome about that?
Path of Exile
Path of Exile is a game come true for fans of the dungeon-crawling MMO genre, much like Drakensang Online. However, this game has a much more similar theme to the dark and brooding tone set by the Diablo series as opposed to the more lighthearted tone in the Torchlight series. Like most dungeon crawlers, the gameplay in Path of Exile is pretty much a straight-up hack-and-slash but interestingly, the character you play has a variety of passive and active abilities that provide players with the freedom to create whatever build they like. Of course, these builds and the players' skills will be put to the test when they attempt to take on an epic boss which if defeated, will shower their group with plenty of amazing loot.Another interesting aspect in Path of Exile is its robust and thriving player-driven economy. Similar to Diablo 3's albeit failed auction system in some way, players who raid often can sell any loot they don't need on the market rather than a mere AI vendor usually at a marked-up price. Other players who don't have that much time to raid but money aplenty can then spend the necessary amount to buy the stuff they need.
Path of Exile is definitely the sort of free-to-play game fans of Diablo, or any dungeon crawler game really, will love to play. If you happen to be one of them, then what are you waiting for? Try the game now!
