Dauntless vs Might & Magic: Showdown
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!
Might & Magic: Showdown
Might & Magic: Showdown is a different take on this much loved setting. Instead of a tactical game, you have a 1 on 1 pvp game where you choose, personalize and fight with a character in short tactical games against other players. Build a team of characters and then use them in short battles in real time against your enemies. Plan your skills ahead of time and defeat as many as you can, and then keep on going.This game is a sideline to the main series, and one that is set to be both fun and fast paced. Not yet released it is available on Steam Early Access.
