Age of Conan: Unchained vs Rappelz
Age of Conan: Unchained
Age of Conan: Unchained is an MMORPG that's based on the timeless classic comic and TV series, Conan the Barbarian. Featuring one of the best fantasy-themed lore, the game also has a very unique action-based combat system that, despite its steep learning curve, is comparable to that of TERA... though, we'd say that combat in this game is much more varied. You can weave spells, attempt to capture battlekeeps with massive siege machines and even enjoy some good ol' mounted combat that is surprisingly not at all too clunky. However, you should bear in mind that this MMO has been around for quite some time, so the graphics in this game might be a tad bit old fashioned.What we love the most about Age of Conan is that the game actually rewards players who go off the beaten track and explore the secret corners of the world that questlines will never bring you to. The shift from being a subscription-based MMO to becoming a free-to-play MMO has been very well-received too, mainly because it injects a certain amount of much-needed players into its population and well, it allows newcomers to try the game out at no cost.
All in all, Age of Conan is a solid MMORPG that is very well-suited for players who like to explore and a challenge. Hardcore fans of Conan may want to try this game out as well, even if it's only to experience the different storylines in the game.
Rappelz
Rappelz is an MMORPG that was released in 2009 and developed by Gala Lab in South Korea. It features a traditional dark fantasy world with familiar mechanics, such as running dungeons, questing and PvPing. The game also has three distinct races that provide different lore and a set of character classes to unlock through character progression. Interestingly though, it also has an amazing pet system where players can capture and train their own pets so they can aid them in battle.Despite being an old game with somewhat outdated visuals, Rappelz still has some interesting features that anyone can still enjoy trying it out. The best part though is that the game still receives new content update every month to keep players hooked. It has recently been updated with a brand-new expansion and this is not something that's about to stop any time soon!
