Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth vs Total War: Warhammer
Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth
Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth lets you play as the leader of a pioneering group of spacefarers as you set off for the stars in hopes of creating a new civilization in space. The science fiction-themed in this game is a pretty far cry from the usually historical theme in the award-winning Civilization game franchise, but the game was pretty well-done mainly because it contains many of the features that had made Civilization 5 such a resounding success while changing things up a bit, such as replacing religion with affinity, just so everything is relevant to the overall theme of the game. There are also items that you can find on the alien planet that you're trying to colonize which will unlock nice storylines and quests for you to experience. And of course, there's the epic DLC, Rising Tide, which has elevated a mediocre but interestingly-themed game into an impressive one.If you're hoping for a game that's as amazing as Civ 5, Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth might end up disappointing some of you, but if you consider that this is the franchise's first attempt in doing a game that's not history-based, then well, this is a pretty good first attempt for an established, triple-A series.
Total War: Warhammer
Total War: Warhammer perfectly combines one of the best fantasy-adventure literature of all time with one of the best historical real-time strategy games in gaming history. Deviating from their usual historically-based titles, Total War: Warhammer is set in the rich, expansive, and most defintiely fictional universe of Warhammer, where war between the 5 major races, namely the Bretonnia, the Empire, the Dwarfs, the Vampire Counts and the Greenskins, is a pretty constant occurrence. Amass an army filled with all manner of creatures imaginable and appoint powerful Lords, equipped with the best items you cna offer, to lead your battalions in massive real-time battles.Not to mention, being a fantasy-themed game, you can now use magic to combat your foes and deploy flying units - the first time ever for a Total War game.
Featuring top-of-the-line graphics and animations, Total War: Warhammer is a marvellously-crafted and meticulously-designed masterpiece of a game. There are still some flaws that the game can work on like the sieges (need more stuff for defenders) and maybe not add in what should have been free game patches as purchasable DLCs, but that aside, the game is as great as large-scaled battles go.
