Grim Soul vs Kenshi
Grim Soul
Grim Soul is a fantasy-based, survival RPG by Kefir! which pretty much follows the similar formula they've used in their insanely popular game, Last Day on Earth: Survival albeit with a more medieval theme.In this game, you'll get to build your own castle and defend against the plagued zombie knights and lost souls. Players can explore new castles for resources crucial for survival. These resources can be used to craft invaluable items that include workbenches, medieval weapons, and strong armory to defend against the wandering souls. You also get to manage your own castle by defending it through indigenous traps and strong defense systems. Moreover, the game includes war horses to ride, dangerous animals to hunt and resources to acquire in an open world environment. Players can also form clans to help survive a bit longer in the wild.
If you have a knack for survival games, Grim Soul is definitely one of the best MMORPGs out there with unique crafting features.
Kenshi
Kenshi is an open world, semi-sandbox, party-based RPG that offers players an completely open-ended gameplay rather than opting to force players to go through a storyline. You can be anyone you like in this game, be it an honest trader, an adventurer, a bandit or others. Scavenge important resources, including weapons and armor, from corpses and use them for your own. Recruit new companions from towns, build an outpost of your own, and grow it to accomodate more of your companions. Of course, as your little town thrives, bandits and jealous rivals will attack you and you'll need to make sure all your people have what they need to defend the town and repel the invaders.Sounds like fun? Well, it definitely is. However, Kenshi, being a pretty ambitious early access game, does have it fair share of flaws. The game still has plenty of glitches still and can be really hard to get into, especially at the beginning of the game where you literally have no idea what you need to do.
That said, the game is very unique because it has a pretty rare theme and its gameplay - a combination of party-based survival/ base building - is also oddly rare among the other games on the market. So, you might want to check this game out.
