Dauntless vs Zenonia 5
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!
Zenonia 5
Zenonia 5 is an anime action RPG and the most recent sequel to the main Zenonia series. Although the game offers a lot more of the same things (controls and gameplay), it does provide players with a fresh new selection of classes and characters, namely Abel the Berserker, Neal the Wizard, Ryan the Paladin and Evan the Gunslinger, along with a brand new storyline. Due to the use of specific named characters, you'll have limited options when it comes to character customization.It seems like Gamevil leanred their lesson from Zenonia 4, allowing Zenonia 5 to be a much better version. They have even polished up all the typos and mispellings that litter the previous game. So, if you really want to try Zenonia, then Zenonia 5 is perhaps a great game to start the series with.
