Aura Kingdom vs Otherland
Aura Kingdom
Aura Kingdom is an anime-themed MMORPG that features a well-written storyline, stunning graphics and amusing dialogues that make the game feel vibrant. The game also provides players with an exciting and dynamic combat system to enjoy the game with.Aura Kingdom focuses mainly on the PvE aspect, and thus, you can expect tons of dungeon raids, quests (which are unfortunately a bit grindy) and even world bosses to hunt for. Of course, that is not to say that Aura Kingdom doesn't have any PvP arenas either - it does. The most unique part in this game though is its Pokemon-like Eidolons that you can collect. In some way, this urge to collect will drive you to great lengths to search for every Eidolon you can find.
The gameplay in Aura Kingdom is admittedly not very unique. Even the Eidolon-collecting part, although it is still very enjoyable, has been done multiple times before... some by browser-based games nonetheless! But this game just oozes out charm by the truck load and this is something that might convince you to stay (in the game).
Otherland
Otherland is a futuristic MMORPG that will definitely tax the very boundaries of your imagination! The game features some stunning and very diverse digital worlds that you can set off and explore to your heart’s content as well as a supposedly action-based combat system.That said, Otherland is something of an acquired taste-type of game we’d say. It can be quite hard to keep up with the game’s storyline if you have not read a word of the books or universe created by Tad Willaims which is what this game is based on. Although the graphics of the game is most certainly impressive to say the least and that the diverse worlds do keep players interested, the game’s gameplay may feel a bit lackluster due to the generic questing and frequent combat glitches.
If you are the sort of player who loves exploring new worlds or that you’re simply a huge fan of the book, Otherland is definitely a game you mustn’t miss. If not, it’s still worth it to give the game a shot, but to stay, well, that’s another matter and it's entirely up to you.
