Master of Orion vs Might & Magic: Heroes VII
Master of Orion
Master of Orion is a rather revolutionary strategy game that has coined the subgenre "4X" which represent the four main game elements in Master of Orion - "eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate". Play as one of the ten races available and set off to explore the vast uncharted parts of the galaxy to colonize. The game features a ton of planets and solar systems to explore, various customizable spaceships for you to travel in, more than 75 different researchable technologies and a turn-based gameplay where you are free to decide how you'd like to win, be it through military conquest, technological advancement, diplomatic prowess or other methods.Master of Orion is a gem of a game especially for fans of space-themed strategy games. You'll literally get to control and modify each aspect of your empire building and colonization efforts in addition to building ties to neighboring alien empires in hopes of further fuelling the expansion of your race.
Might & Magic: Heroes VII
Might & Magic: Heroes VII is the latest (and perhaps most disappointing) installment of the classic turn-based RPG series, Might & Magic. It's not that the gameplay is horridly bad - it's actually somewhat the opposite. Many fans have liked the variety this installment has brought, especially the six different faction campaigns that you can enjoy, each with their own stories and landscapes of course. This game also has a nice, low-key empire building aspect where you'll manage your city, gather resources and recruit extra armies to help you take down your enemies. The synergy between the heroes and their armies is well-designed too, and not to mention, the game has a nice skirmish mode where you can simply test your skills against an AI whereby both of you are given maximum power.However, all those aside, Might & Magic: Heroes VII is possibly one of the buggiest games ever made for the franchise. The game crashes pretty often and the bugs, although rarely game-breaking, are incredibly annoying. The multiplayer mode is also practically non-existant mainly because it doesn't even work. Worst yet, the developers apparently have given up trying to fix the game and left the game almost as broken as the day it was released.
So, considering all of that, we really couldn't recommend getting Might & Magic: Heroes VII unless you can get it at a "way below market price" range or you'll just end up regretting all the wasted money.
