Anno Online vs Total War: Shogun 2
Anno Online
Anno Online is an amazing, free-to-play browser MMO strategy game based on the renowned Anno game series by Ubisoft. The gameplay in this game is quite similar to The Settlers Online where you need to strategically build your empire and trade the resources you get with other players. The sole exception between these two games is Anno Online's famous, grid-based naval battles.In some way, Anno Online is a more historically accurate version of The Settlers Online where the goal is not to annihilate your opponents but to manage your kingdom well and help it to grow. We can confidently say that this is a game that will definitely engage players who love the genre for hours.
Total War: Shogun 2
Total War: Shogun 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the groundbreaking original game, Shogun: Total War. Set in the darkest age of Feudal Japan right after the collapse of a unified government (in 16th century to be exact), many warring clans have risen through the chaos and out of them, 10 legendary warlords, or Daimyos, have their eyes set on the coveted position of shogun, but only one of them will be able to reunite a warring island.The gameplay is pretty similar to the original game. The campaign map features a turn-based, Risk-style gameplay while the actual battles themselves (rendered in glorious 3D) are played out in real-time. However, this time around, the game is filled with a ton of new units, including massive warships, as well as a more in-depth strategic gameplay based on the ancient texts in Sun Tzu's Art of War. There are multi-stage sieges, unique hero units who can be improved through standard RPG methods, and that the campaign map is now in 3D as well and can be rotated whichever way you like.
The campaign in Total War: Shogun 2 can also be played cooperatively (2 players), but if you truly want to test your skills, you can engage in epic online battles with up to 8 other players.
This game does the very first Total War game justice and is the sort of game that fans of the series would greatly enjoy. Also, considering that the game came out more than 5 years ago, the graphics in the game is still pretty relevant today... so I guess, that's another bonus.
