Albion Online vs Lord of the Rings Online
Albion Online
Albion Online is an absolutely magnificent sandbox style MMORPG that recently went into its summer alpha stages and despite not being fully completed and released yet, it’s an incredible game that puts complete control in the players’ hands and delivers a full-fledged experience that games are rarely able to provide.For instance, the game doesn’t restrict you by imposing a class on you right from the get-go. Instead, you get to develop your character and mold him as you wish. This freedom in character customization makes the game’s PvP quite interesting because you’ll never know which skill sets your opponent will have. Its combat system is also pretty impressive and feels to be a lot more skill-based rather than the common hack-and-slash.
Being a sandbox game, you can build anything you want – most likely a shelter though – using the resource you’ve painstakingly harvested from the game environment. You can even craft items and furniture to be placed within your home, and of course, add some defenses so nobody would be crazy enough to try breaking in your place.
Albion Online is, without a doubt, an amazing MMORPG that fans of games like Minecraft would enjoy. It may not be voxel-based, but many of the game aspects does bring the latter game to mind... a lot.
Lord of the Rings Online
Lord of the Rings Online is an exceptional MMORPG that's steeped in the lore of an epic classic fantasy, the Lord of the Rings. Venture forth into Middle-Earth and experience Tolkien’s universe and lore first-hand by joining your favorite and well-known characters such as Aragorn, The Hobbits, Legolas and Gandalf in their journey to Mount Doom while trying to stop the army of Angmar from laying waste to the land. Aside from its lore-focused questing system that's filled with amazing cinematic cut-scenes, there are tons of other features as well, including professions, character's traits system, epic movie-quality soundtracks and even having your own virtual home, in addition to the usual PvE and PvP events. Best yet, the game offers a gorgeous game world for players to immerse themselves and enjoy role-playing in!It may not be a "World of Warcraft"-type game, but the Lord of the Ring Online is certainly a MMORPG that is determined to be different from every other MMORPG... and it is successful to some extent. Fans of Lord of the Rings, even the not-so-hardcore ones, would definitely love this game!
