Guild Wars 2 vs Otherland
Guild Wars 2
Guild Wars 2 is one of the world's most recognizable MMORPGs and is listed among the topmost MMO games of all time... a position that is hotly contested by another equally epic MMORPG, World of Warcraft. However, unlike WoW, the game abhors the subscription model and, like Elder Scrolls Online, has opted for a more feasible and, honestly, a more player-fair model - the buy-once-to-play model.That aside, Guild Wars 2 has a ton of content that doesn't live up to its title but also make every cent you've spent to buy the game prove its worth several times over. What's not to like right? In addition to an incredibly addictive gameplay where combat is action-based and battles are affected by a one-of-a-kind, weapons-and-profession-based skills system, you get updates for free! There are fun, dynamic questing events, massive cross-server PvP events, and even... wait for it... underwater combat!
Best yet, the game has recently relented a little due to the release of its major expansion back in 2015, allowing new players to try the base game out for completely free! After all, it’s not every day you’ll get to enjoy one of the best games in MMO history for free. So, don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity and play Guild Wars 2 today!
Otherland
Otherland is a futuristic MMORPG that will definitely tax the very boundaries of your imagination! The game features some stunning and very diverse digital worlds that you can set off and explore to your heart’s content as well as a supposedly action-based combat system.That said, Otherland is something of an acquired taste-type of game we’d say. It can be quite hard to keep up with the game’s storyline if you have not read a word of the books or universe created by Tad Willaims which is what this game is based on. Although the graphics of the game is most certainly impressive to say the least and that the diverse worlds do keep players interested, the game’s gameplay may feel a bit lackluster due to the generic questing and frequent combat glitches.
If you are the sort of player who loves exploring new worlds or that you’re simply a huge fan of the book, Otherland is definitely a game you mustn’t miss. If not, it’s still worth it to give the game a shot, but to stay, well, that’s another matter and it's entirely up to you.
