Keepers of the Rift vs Rend
Keepers of the Rift
Keepers of the Rift is a browser-based MMORPG where you play as an up-and-coming hero, who is setting off on an adventure to right the wrongs of the world. This dream of yours puts you in direct conflict with the shadowy organization called the Dark Legion. Thankfully, you won’t be taking on the enemy alone – assemble a party of heroes, bring along your combat pet and help save the gorgeous world known as Incuria from these nefarious villains.The game provides 6 unique classes for you to play as, namely warrior, priest, hunter, bard, engineer and knight, and each class comes in two genders. Questing in this game is as painless as it can be. It’s not at all grindy and is automated to an extent. The game’s turn-based combat is also similar in many ways. You can choose to manually select a skill to use and which enemy to use it on or you can simply let the game’s automation kick in by turning on auto-combat.
There are tons of other features as well, including titles, wings, and mounts for you to improve your Battle Rating; dungeons for you to raid in; and even PvP battles at the Coliseum. Best of all, the game has some of the most colorful and adorable graphics by browser standards, and an interesting variation of background tunes.
Keepers of the Rift is definitely a browser MMO that will appeal to players who have enjoyed Korean and/or Japanese MMOs in the past. It's fun and is an absolute eye-candy to look at. Do give it a try!
Rend
Rend is an up-and-coming, Nordic-themed, team-based survival game that is set in a wild and ruthless, fantasy world filled with fantastic creatures, where only the strongest are able to ascend to the realms of the gods. In this game, players are separated into their respective factions at the beginning. They are then given the freedom to explore the many biomes and harvest resources from the environment whether solo or co-operatively. The resources obtained can then be used to craft better weapons and tools or can be reinvested into the faction stronghold to fortify it from potential attacks from players from a rival faction and to advance your base just so you can unlock new technologies. Players have their own skill systems and talent trees as well, and these are the main ways for a player to customize and tweak their characters to their liking.The ultimate goal of the game, however, is to reap as many warrior spirits as you can by battling and defeating rival players and deposit the souls at the Divinity Stone in the middle of your faction base, that is if you're not slain while carrying such precious loot. Somewhat similar to grand strategy games, Rend is more of a continual game. It has game cycles of 2 to 3 months, in which the winning faction of each cycle will get a nice pile of rewards at the end of a cycle.
Rend has a really unique take on the survival genre and this might just give the game the fuel it needs to rise to the top. The game is currently in Alpha and its release date is still TBD.
