Elite Dangerous vs Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth
Elite Dangerous
Elite Dangerous is a MMO space simulation game that not only offers players a ton of customizatable spaceships of all shapes and sizes; it also provides players with a massive open world galaxy to explore and have adventures in. In this game, you'll need to do whatever it takes to improve your rank among the Elites and there are multiple ways to do so - you can literally craft your own legacy. You can take the easy-way out and become a space smuggler, a space pirate, or a bounty hunter, or you can opt to earn a honest living by being a trader or a miner. The galaxy in this game is very much alive and will change based on your actions and decisions... as well as the actions and decisions of all the other players playing in the same galaxy as you do.Unknown to many, Elite Dangerous is actually the third sequel to the popular 1984's genre-defining Elite game farnchise. This polished and drastically upgraded version will definitely be able to appeal to a whole new generation of space sim fans. If you happen to be one of them, you'll want to check this game out!
Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth
Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth lets you play as the leader of a pioneering group of spacefarers as you set off for the stars in hopes of creating a new civilization in space. The science fiction-themed in this game is a pretty far cry from the usually historical theme in the award-winning Civilization game franchise, but the game was pretty well-done mainly because it contains many of the features that had made Civilization 5 such a resounding success while changing things up a bit, such as replacing religion with affinity, just so everything is relevant to the overall theme of the game. There are also items that you can find on the alien planet that you're trying to colonize which will unlock nice storylines and quests for you to experience. And of course, there's the epic DLC, Rising Tide, which has elevated a mediocre but interestingly-themed game into an impressive one.If you're hoping for a game that's as amazing as Civ 5, Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth might end up disappointing some of you, but if you consider that this is the franchise's first attempt in doing a game that's not history-based, then well, this is a pretty good first attempt for an established, triple-A series.
