Europa Universalis IV vs Soldiers Inc
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(in a good way) and of course, the best selling point of this series is that almost everything is based on accurate historical references, be it a historical figure or an event.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.
Soldiers Inc
Soldiers Inc is a military-themed MMO strategy game set in a futuristic world where natural resources are running low worldwide except for the African country of Zandia. In this game, you assume the role of a military contractor. You are sent by your employers to do "whatever it takes" to lay claim to the land and stop others from doing the same. Build and develop a fortified forward base, recruit mercenaries to field your army, and send them out to take out other bases around the region. Forge alliances with like-minded players and work together to keep everyone else out from tapping into the wealth of resources the region has to offer.Although the PvP aspect of this game can be rather intense at times, Soldiers Inc provides players with many hours of solid fun as they try to rise up the ranks on the leaderboard.
