Anarchy Online vs Star Wars: The Old Republic
Anarchy Online
Anarchy Online is one of the first science fiction-theme MMORPG when it was introduced in 2001 and unsurprisingly, the game was very well-received back then. Originally a subscription-based game, it was one of the first games to introduce free trials to players who wanted to give the game a try. It features deep character interaction and development and has a wide range of classes to choose from. The gameplay is entertaining and the lore will delight those who enjoy a good original storyline.However, Anarchy Online is one of those old-school MMOs that had not aged well. The more than 15-year-old graphics isn't exactly what it used to be, and despite the huge amount of content you get to enjoy, once you've done everything there is to do in this game, you'll start to gradually feel bored since there will be no additional content, ever. The publishers have also stated that they will only keep the servers running and that's about it. So, cheaters and exploiters pretty much roam freely here and you can expect a pretty deprecated in-game economy and currency.
So, although many have considered this game as one of the more underrated MMORPG classics, Anarchy Online may not be the sort of game you'd want to spend too much time in, mainly because right now there are so many other options out there, unless it's for nostalgic purposes.
Star Wars: The Old Republic
Star Wars: The Old Republic is simply an amazing Star Wars-themed MMORPG where you get to dive into the constant conflict between the Sith and the Jedis of the Galactic Republic. Choose a side and one from the the four different classes available to begin your journey as either a Sith or a Jedi. The depth in the gameplay is brilliant as well. You'll get to customize and improve your own character through a variety of ways. You can then test out your build and strength in a PvE or a PvP setting. The best (and trickiest) part though is its storyline... and this game nails it somehow. Fans of Star Wars will be glad to know that the plot fits perfectly into the franchise.All in all, Star Wars: The Old Republic has a lot going for it and is a game that not onyl fans of Star Wars should play. If you enjoy playing MMORPGs, you should definitely check this game out.
