Divinity: Original Sin 2 vs Might & Magic: Heroes VII
Divinity: Original Sin 2
Divinity: Original Sin 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to one of the best most recent classic adventure-RPGs. In this game, you can play as one of six races. In fact, you can create very odd characters, such as a flesh-eating Elf for example, and discover how the world react to you. The game also features the same exciting party-based gameplay where you can forge closer ties with your companions and work with them to use whatever advantage you get, including working the environment to your favor, during one of the game's many turn-based battles. You can play the game with up to 4 players online to enjoy a split-screen multiplayer for even more fun.Divinity: Original Sin 2 is also very encouraging of mods and the mod community in general due to the support added to the game which allows players to easily find fan-made mods that they like as well as to create mods of their own. This definitely adds at least a couple tens of hours on top of what already is a pretty lengthy game.
Might & Magic: Heroes VII
Might & Magic: Heroes VII is the latest (and perhaps most disappointing) installment of the classic turn-based RPG series, Might & Magic. It's not that the gameplay is horridly bad - it's actually somewhat the opposite. Many fans have liked the variety this installment has brought, especially the six different faction campaigns that you can enjoy, each with their own stories and landscapes of course. This game also has a nice, low-key empire building aspect where you'll manage your city, gather resources and recruit extra armies to help you take down your enemies. The synergy between the heroes and their armies is well-designed too, and not to mention, the game has a nice skirmish mode where you can simply test your skills against an AI whereby both of you are given maximum power.However, all those aside, Might & Magic: Heroes VII is possibly one of the buggiest games ever made for the franchise. The game crashes pretty often and the bugs, although rarely game-breaking, are incredibly annoying. The multiplayer mode is also practically non-existant mainly because it doesn't even work. Worst yet, the developers apparently have given up trying to fix the game and left the game almost as broken as the day it was released.
So, considering all of that, we really couldn't recommend getting Might & Magic: Heroes VII unless you can get it at a "way below market price" range or you'll just end up regretting all the wasted money.
