Identity vs Just Cause
Identity
Identity aims to disrupt the traditional grindy and repetitive gameplay of modern MMORPGs by introducing an MMORPG that has an open world that's free of restrictions; a place where players can determine their own destinies as well as the world around them. The game features a massive, rich and immersive open world which includes all sorts of landscapes as well as means of moving around, such as vehicles, bicycles and trains. There are also jobs and careers of all types, both legit and illegal ones, that you can dive into. Each job you take has its own progression path which will see you rising up in ranks if you do your job well.The game even offers players their own virtual homes to decorate as they wish. Players can do a lot of stuff at home as well, such as crafting, growing plants, creating goods to be sold to other players and more. In fact, if you've the business acumen, you can set up a small enterprise and grow it into a huge corporation, especially considering that almost everything in the game can be designed and created by players.
In some way, Identity feels like a game that attempts to combine the fun of MMORPGs with a massive, sandbox-like virtual world with the likes of Second Life or IMVU. So, if this sounds like what you'd enjoy in a game, then you should definitely check it out.
Just Cause
Just Cause is the game to play if you enjoy just destroying anything and everything in your way while enjoying movie-like quality stunts and slow motion effects, which will naturally make your character look super cool. Featuring a wide variety of weapons and vehicles (sea, land and air), Rico (the character you'll be playing as) also has his iconic wingsuit which allows you to explore the island of San Esperito by air and grappling hook that allows you to use scale previously impossible cliffs or sides of buildings and more.Similar to Fallout, Just Cause provides players with total and complete freedom to do whatever they like, however they like. This applies to the game's many missions, side missions, bonus missions and more. The best part about this game though is its over-the-top stunts which in some way parody the crazy cinematically enhanced stunts and effects that many blockbuster Hollywood films use.
Although the storyline in this game falls flat, Just Cause gotten its golden ticket to fame due to the insane amount of explosive destruction that you are allowed to do and the awesome way your character looks when you do it. In a way, Just Cause is a game that's designed as a game-based release valve for all the penned up rage and stress from your everyday lives, giving you a vast game world (and perhaps egging you on) to smash virtual things and people in.
