Mass Effect 2 vs Star Wars: The Old Republic
Mass Effect 2
Mass Effect 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the new sci-fi game franchise from BioWare, Mass Effect. The story in this game continues where the previous game left off - you, playing as Commander Shepard, is now a famous hero among humans and the more peaceful alien races and is tasked with investigating the mysterious circumstances that had caused entire human colonies to disappear without so much as a single trace of resistance. Of course, you won't be doing all of this alone. With your elite team of companions assembled, you'll set off on a much powerful version of the Normandy (spaceship) to seek out the culprits, to make them pay for what they have done and to save as many survivors as you can.Featuring the same depth when it comes to character customization - perhaps even more so, this game has removed the inland exploring and mineral extracting aspect and replaced it with a probe-based planet scanning system where you will scan planets to identify mineral rich locations and then send probes to do all the collecting for you. Interestingly, some planets also have special encounters with their own side-stories that are entirely optional. The gameplay itself is still pretty well-designed but of course, it slightly pales in comparison to the incredibly rich storyline this game has to offer.
If you have enjoyed any one of the core Mass Effect trilogy, then you'll want to at least play them all so you can get the whole story. After all, having a rich, decision-based storyline is the main selling feature of this franchise. And of course, Commander Shepard him/herself recommends this game, so who are you to say no to the legendary Commander Shepard?
Star Wars: The Old Republic
Star Wars: The Old Republic is simply an amazing Star Wars-themed MMORPG where you get to dive into the constant conflict between the Sith and the Jedis of the Galactic Republic. Choose a side and one from the the four different classes available to begin your journey as either a Sith or a Jedi. The depth in the gameplay is brilliant as well. You'll get to customize and improve your own character through a variety of ways. You can then test out your build and strength in a PvE or a PvP setting. The best (and trickiest) part though is its storyline... and this game nails it somehow. Fans of Star Wars will be glad to know that the plot fits perfectly into the franchise.All in all, Star Wars: The Old Republic has a lot going for it and is a game that not onyl fans of Star Wars should play. If you enjoy playing MMORPGs, you should definitely check this game out.
