Crusaders of Solaria vs Dauntless
Crusaders of Solaria
Crusaders of Solaria by R2 games is a fun and fast-paced browser MMORPG that's set in a tumultuous fantasy world of Solaria where it's paradise by day and is crawling with evil creatures at night. Playing as one of the two classes available - either a warrior or a mage, you'll set off on an exciting adventure to slay the biggest and baddest creatures in the region through the game's flashy combat sequence. Another interesting thing about this game is that all the premium items you can buy fromm the game shop only have a temporary effect, so this somewhat offset some of the more powerful items on sale, giving free-to-play players a fighting chance to gain lost ground.Crusaders of Solaria is a rather old, web-based casual MMORPG and the fact that it has managed to last this long is a testament to how entertaining it is to hundreds and thousands of players worldwide. So, if you have some free time on your hands, you might want to check this game out.
Dauntless
Dauntless is a co-op action RPG that has been hailed by many as an exclusively MMO version of Monster Hunter: World albeit with less "realistic" (subject to debate, I'm sure) graphics. In this game, you will play as a Slayer, one of the last fearless warriors who are all that stand between savage behemoths that have gorged on the powers of aether - the very power that had shattered the isles - and the surviving people of Ramsgate.In many ways, the storyline may remind you of Pacific Rim, minus all the cool tech and mechs. Instead of piloting massive machines of war, you do battle with aether-charged attacks and well-timed combos while working cooperatively with other players. There are many types of monsters for you to slay in Dauntless and different types will require different strategies. In fact, the strategy you use depends on how you build your character and what's your team composition is. This is definitely not your usual "tank and spank" boss fights.
If you love actually-challenging boss fights in MMOs and generally, cooperatively hunting down creatures of monstrous sizes, then Dauntless is definitely a game you'll want to check out.
Currently, the game is in Open Beta so you can go ahead and try the game for free, but if you love the game, be sure to purchase one of its Founder's pack and support the game's development!
