Might & Magic: Heroes VII vs Terrain of Magical Expertise
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.
Terrain of Magical Expertise
Terrain of Magical Expertise is a fairly whimsical turn-based RPG that puts you into the shoes of a white-hat hacker out on a mission to rid an MMO game from its plague of cheaters and black-hat hackers. Venture out into the virtual fantastical world of the Terrain of Magical Expertise, develop both your character and your guild of newly-found friends, and do your best to help them win the in-game event which features a grand prize of $20,000 real-life cash!Despite not knowing anything about the Terrain of Magical Expertise beforehand, the game is still incredibly engaging to play, be it the strategically intriguing turn-based combat that comes with quick-time events or the intricately connected storylines and the camaraderie that you’ll eventually form with your fellow guildmates in the MMO. The game has some flaws, such as not providing all the basic information that a turn-based combat system should have, but overall, the game is definitely worth playing.
