Skyforge vs Tartaros Rebirth
Skyforge
Skyforge is a sci-fi-themed, free-to-play MMORPG that features an exciting action-based combat, gorgeous worlds to explore, and a uniquely different lore where gods and technology are combined. Being an immortal, you are duty-bound to help the many people of Aelion who are in need of rescue from the hordes of creatures that have somehow entered this dimension. By helping the people, you'll also gain followers and subsequently the ability to create an Order of your own. Gather faith from your loyal followers and your immortal will grow and gain new powers, stats and even classes - yes, you can swap between any unlocked classes as you wish - that will eventually help you transcend into one of the highest ranking gods there is. There are tons of exciting events, both PvE and PvP, for you to prove yourself in as well.Skyforge is one brilliant MMORPG that doesn't only have some of the most amazing graphics but also music, gameplay and lore. Granted that the game may feel rather daunting for a newcomer, the game is basically a package of everything an MMO player would enjoy in an action-based MMO. We can't recommend this game enough! If you're looking to be completely swept away, this is definitely the MMO game to play.
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.
