Europa Universalis: Rome vs Game of Thrones: Conquest
Europa Universalis: Rome
Europa Universalis: Rome brings players back to the ancient ages where Roman, Celtic, Greek, Egyptian and six other civilizations reigned dominant across the game's 53 different factions. Set in between the years 280 B.C. and 27 B.C, you'll get to not only rule but also guide the growth of your very own nation from being a fledgling into a country that the world will need to reckon with (if there are any nations left that you have yet to conquer or brought under your rule). The game retained much of what made the Europa Universalis franchise such as a success, including beautifully deisgned 3D topological maps, historically-accurate figure and events, as well as an insanely in-depth political landscape where you can forge an alliance as easily as you break one.There are also plenty of exciting changes and new features in this installment though. The important characters in the governance of your nation, for example, will develop new traits on their own through their interactions with other people in the game, much like how a human would, giving the game more of a challenge due to all the unpredictability. The military AI used here has been completely revised as well. In addition to the usual 32-player co-op, you can now play competitively against other players... up to 32 of them!
Europa Universalis: Rome is a decade old and as such, you may need to tap into some of the mods made by the game's community to help bring the game to a new level. That said, it's still a really good buy at the current discounted price and if you're a fan of grand strategy games, you should definitely get this one.
Game of Thrones: Conquest
Game of Thrones: Conquest is a rather impressive MMO strategy game that has rocketed to popularity not only because of theinsanely popular TV show it is associated with, but also because of the amazingly competitive gameplay it offers. In addition to the usual strategic conquest aspect, the game has special features like the kingdom management system of bannermen and lieges which doubles as a guild system as well. Its pace is also just perfect to get new players hooked onto the game... and well, the game’s generosity when it comes to drops and freebies is probably a very important reason why most free-to-play players still stick around.So, conquer the various seats of power across Westeros and ultimately the coveted Iron Throne now in Game of Thrones: Conquest. Do you have what it takes to unite the seven kingdoms?
