Mass Effect 3 vs Planet Explorers
Mass Effect 3
Mass Effect 3 is the last part of the Mass Effect trilogy where you'll be plunged into an epic, all-out intergalactic war in an attempt to take back the Earth from a supposedly unstoppable enemy. The game went all out in this game, flawlessly combining its fantastic interactive storytelling with intense and fast-paced gameplay where the decisions you make will have consequences that you will just have to live with.Similar to the previous games in this trilogy, you'll get to assemble an elite team of soldiers to aid you in your quest and it is entirely up to you, their commander, to decide how to approach a combat situation, be it opting for a frontal assault... Rambo-style, or trying to outwit the enemies by flanking or out-flanking them. Aside from some ranged shooting action, this time, you'll get a powerful omniblade that you can use in close-and-personal encounters with the enemy as well.
Mass Effect 3 provides a great ending to the Mass Effect trilogy, and is a game you should most definitely play if you want to get a complete story from its first game to the last. Thankfully though, BioWare agrees with its fans that it's a pity to just stop producing Mass Effect games and have released their latest game, Mass Effect: Andromeda.
Planet Explorers
Planet Explorers is an exploration-driven, sci-fi-themed sandbox RPG where you play as one of the several pioneers who made it to the new planet, Maria… well, barely since you crashed landed on the planet. Here, you’ll need to work with your fellow pioneers to build a life and a colony for yourselves.This game is nothing short of amazing for a completely free-to-play title. Its crafting system is incredibly convenient for the player and despite the grind, gathering resources from the environment can be quite a relaxing endeavor, all thanks to the beautiful music and the immersive ambiance. Besides crafting and gathering materials like wood, rubber, and minerals, you can also hunt the local fauna for animal-based items like meat and animal fat which are needed to craft certain items. You can even tame these creatures and turn them into mounts!
Planet Explorers also comes with a rather nice storyline, an MMO-like questing system, sandbox features which allow you to build magnificent structures similar, in some ways, to Minecraft; and even build your own custom vehicles from scratch and take it out for a spin by driving around the massive map in this game.
Although the game seems to fall short of its potential of being a pretty darn great MMO game because the developers done messed up the codes, Planet Explorers still manages to offer a rather decent single-player experience. Plus, the game's completely free to play now and it doesn't contain any of those annoying ads or micro-transactions since the game was not built that way. Definitely worth a try!
