Europa Universalis IV vs One Piece Treasure Cruise
Europa Universalis IV
Europa Universalis IV is the fourth game in the award-winning Europa Universalis franchise. Similar to its predecessors, the game has everything you'd need to build your own nation from the ground up and guide it through the ages. The freedom in which you get to customize your giverning style, your nation and even your game is simply ridiculous (in a good way) and of course, the best selling point of this series is that almost everything is based on accurate historical references, be it a historical figure or an event. This time around you'll get to grow your nation over a much wider span of history, arrange royal marriages, form coalitions, support rebels in proxy wars and more. You can even cooperate with up to 32 different players to govern a single nation. The multiplayer mode apparently now has an improved chat and a new matchmaking system.Unfortunately, the major downside about this game is that the developers, Paradox Interactive, have apparently "sold-out" by adding in features that should have been in the original game into DLCs that players actually have to pay extra for, ending up spending over $200 for just a single game. Not to mention, many players have complained that the DLCs they release are priced at the same price point despite having progressively lower amount of content.
That said, the game is still an epic masterpiece and a worthy sequel to the Europa Universalis series, but the game's hardcore player base is admittedly not happy, and honestly, we wouldn't recommend getting this game unless you can get all of the DLCs dirt cheap... maybe like in a bundle.
One Piece Treasure Cruise
One Piece Treasure Cruise is another One Piece game spin-off that may frankly be one of the best One Piece-themed RPGs on the mobile platform. Set off on an exhilarating adventure with your beloved One Piece characters by recruiting them to your very own pirate crew and hopefully end up dominating the seas! Each pirate crew can be leveled-up and trained in many different ways and not to mention, you can even improve them by giving them upgrading their gear. The combat system in this game is brilliant as well since it's specifically designed to fit the phone. Combos are very important in this game, forcing you to figure out the best strategies to chain your attacks together just so you can unleash devastating damage due to the bonuses the combo attacks provide.So, if you longed to dive into the vibrant One Piece universe and interact with your favorite characters on your mobile devices, One Piece Treasure Cruise is most definitely the game you'll want to download and install. It's free-to-play after all and is available on both GooglePlay and the AppStore.
