Metin 2 vs Tartaros Rebirth
Metin 2
Metin 2 is an oriental-themed MMORPG that was released back in 2004 and has somehow persevered until today. Granted that it is a very old game and its graphics may not be up to par, the game itself still provides plenty of action combat and grindy killing quests that some people may enjoy! There are 5 different characters for you to choose from including the rather special Sura and Lycan classes, as well as 3 different warring factions. Although the game is basically a stat-based game, there are also character skills that you can invest in and upgrade. Not to mention, the game’s mount system is perhaps one of the most unique and complex among all the MMOs out there. Of course, where there are mounts, usually, you’ll get pets as well and Metin 2 features quite a lot of them!To sum up, if you enjoy old school, grindy MMOs, then you might want to give Metin 2 a try. The game is decent for its age and even until now still has
Tartaros Rebirth
Tartaros Rebirth is the revived version of the anime-themed MMORPG that was popular back in the 2000s, Tartaros Online. Featuring everything you know and love from back in the day, this game has something new to offer as well, such as brand-new storylines. Like the original, you'll get to play as one of nine unique characters, each with their own personalities and skillsets. You can switch between them while you're in town, but not in dungeons or instances. Questing is the main way to level up in this game and the grind is real. However, there are tons of places for you to explore and you can even use higher level characters to complete quests for your lower level characters to turn in.The combat system is rather clunky though, so is its controls with keys that you'll probably have to rebind. Battles are played out in a semi-action-based manner, but since you can't really dodge, block or dash away from danger, all the "non-action" can be a bit underwhelming. Not to mention, the graphics isn't updated somehow and although it may have been acceptable back then, it is definitely not something that will appeal to players in this day and age.
So, in short, Tartaros Rebirth is a great anime-themed game to play, despite sharing many similarities with Dragon Nest, for nostalgic purposes but if you're simply looking for a new anime game to play, you might have a better time playing Lineage II: Revolution.
