Kenshi vs Sinespace
Kenshi
Kenshi is an open world, semi-sandbox, party-based RPG that offers players an completely open-ended gameplay rather than opting to force players to go through a storyline. You can be anyone you like in this game, be it an honest trader, an adventurer, a bandit or others. Scavenge important resources, including weapons and armor, from corpses and use them for your own. Recruit new companions from towns, build an outpost of your own, and grow it to accomodate more of your companions. Of course, as your little town thrives, bandits and jealous rivals will attack you and you'll need to make sure all your people have what they need to defend the town and repel the invaders.Sounds like fun? Well, it definitely is. However, Kenshi, being a pretty ambitious early access game, does have it fair share of flaws. The game still has plenty of glitches still and can be really hard to get into, especially at the beginning of the game where you literally have no idea what you need to do.
That said, the game is very unique because it has a pretty rare theme and its gameplay - a combination of party-based survival/ base building - is also oddly rare among the other games on the market. So, you might want to check this game out.
Sinespace
Sinespace is a pretty remarkable, brand-new virtual world game where you can literally be anyone you like, create anything you like, and explore anywhere you like! Setting itself as a direct competitor of Second Life, this game has so much more to offer and it is creator-friendly way too. Not only it is free, creators will almost have unlimited resources to do so and on a platform (Unity3D) that’s as good as it gets. Granted that you’ll probably need to spend hours poring over the game’s documentation and tutorial videos on YouTube to creating something, all the effort you put in will be very well worth it. There are already a couple of creators on board and they have been busy making some items for players to use.Of course, like most virtual world games, there are many worlds for you to explore as well. You can even create your own world and customize it to your liking... or you can simply use one of the several pre-build homes available.
All in all, Sinespace is definitely a strong competitor to Second Life and IMVU especially once it’s fully fleshed out and launched. If you’re interested to get a head start, you can download the game now and start creating!
