Europa Universalis III vs Stronghold Crusader 2
Europa Universalis III
Europa Universalis III follows in the footsteps of its predecessors by offering players with one of the best grand strategy game they have ever experienced. The game dives deeply into each of its four major aspects - exploration, trade, warfare and diplomacy. Nation-building is as flexible and as in-depth as ever. Each country in the game's over 250 countries is also historically accurate, so as most of their global events and famous figures.However, the sequel has had some changes made to further improve the experience that it can offer. Some of these changes include a nicer 3D topological map of the world rather than the flat 2D version as well as the availability of a cooperative multiplayer mode where players get to work together - like an actual government - to govern a single nation. You can even start the gameplay whenever you like between the years 1453 and 1820, and freely customize your game.
That's good and all, but the best part about all of this is the thriving modding community that is constantly churning out new and exciting content for you to have fun with. Sounds awesome? Well, you simply must check out this amazing game.
Stronghold Crusader 2
Stronghold Crusader 2 returns to the desert of the Middle East right in the middle of the war of religions known as the Crusades after a long hiatus. Similar to the previous game, you'll get to play as a brutal Crusader Knight or Arabic freedom fighter as you lead your respective armies to annihilate the other in the game's fast-paced gameplay. Being a series known for its brilliant castle simulations, you can also build huge castles in the desert to house your population and to recruit massive armies to fuel your battles.There are more than 25 unique unit types, each with their own special abilities; other game modes aside from the main story-based campaigns as well as a multiplayer aspect that can house up to 8 players.
That said, the game has a lot of bugs and as such, your gaming experience will definitely be impacted. Many features that fans of the series have loved were somehow taken out of this sequel too and that had angered and disappointed a lot of the game's fans. All in all though, if you enjoy Crusades-themed games, you might want to get the first game in this spin-off series.
