No Man’s Sky vs Star Trek Online
No Man’s Sky
No Man’s Sky has had a really rough start but thankfully the game developers have the integrity and the determination to continue the development of their game and honestly, despite the fact that the game still needs plenty of work, it has improved a lot since it was first released. The game is a sci-fi-themed, procedurally-generated planet and space exploration game where you can not only gather resources to craft and build your base but also learn how to communicate with sentient aliens or hunt non-sentient ones. You can also literally play any role you like, be it as a trader, an explorer or a bounty hunter.The galaxy itself feels very much alive due to the many factors in play - space pirates plundering unwary traders, various factions fighting to secure new territories, and more, aside from the fact that you'll be playing with other players in the same galaxy. Due to its procedural generation, every new planet you land on will always have a whole new ecosystem that you have never seen before, but like many players have noted, you still get the feeling that the creatures and the planet itself look familiar enough to discredit whatever differences they have. However, the best part about the game is perhaps its fragmented storyline - a plot that has to be assembled piece by piece as you explore the many worlds the game has to offer.
Many fans of the game has touted No Man's Sky as a first-person Starbound, but whether that's true or not, well, it's up to you to decide. The game can be pretty costly to buy at its original price considering that the game feels a lot like a work-in-progress, but if you can get it cheap, then the game is worth the experience.
Star Trek Online
Star Trek Online is a sci-fi-themed MMORPG that features epic dogfights in space, a wide variety of alien species and encounters, as well as cool forms of futuristic space travels, set in the iconic Star Trek universe that many love and enjoy in the time period when the Klingons drive to expand their empire came into conflict with the forces of the Federation. That's not all, the Dominions are also seeking to wrestle Alpha Quadrant from the Federation and apparently, the Borgs have returned as well!With so many moving pieces in play, Star Trek Online is as rich in its storyline as in the popular TV shows and movies. THe gameplay is incredibly immersive too. In this game, you'll get to pilot/command your own starship, customize it to your liking and set off to the farthest reaches of the known galaxy fighting opposing factions, both AI and players alike.
In spite of what you might expect, Star Trek Online is not just a brilliant MMO game for fans of the franchise. As long as you have a love for thrilling space battles and exploring the unknown, then you'll fit right in with the other players in this amazing game.
