Dragon Age: Origins vs Might & Magic: Showdown
Dragon Age: Origins
Dragon Age: Origins is the first game in one of the most highly-acclaimed game series, Dragon Age. The game seems to combine all the great elements of a traditional RPG with an epic storyline set in a gorgeous open world that will truly put your morality and decision-making skills to the test. In some way, the game does bring to mind the immersiveness of the Fable series as you'll be able to actually mold your character's personality and morality based on every single decision you make. The host of characters in this game is pretty amazing as well. Their personalities are very well-crafted and this makes them relatable, and hence, realistic.That's not all, the game features an exciting and engaging combat system that will see you fighting enemies of all shapes and sizes... and of course, dragons. Being one of the last Grey Wardens, you also possess incredible magical powers and skills that further augments the game's melee combat. Due to the game's 3-person party-based system, the game's combat system even has a special "paused" function where you can issue individual orders to your allies for a more coordinated but equally fast-paced action combat.
Dragon Age: Origins is the sort of game that can hold its own even after years since its release. In fact, we dare say this game might already made it into the list of modern classics. If you love a rich story and a fun action RPG, this is definitely the game to buy.
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.
