Portal Knights vs Star Citizen
Portal Knights
Portal Knights brings an epic 3D sandbox adventure to your screens with a huge variety of game maps and portals to travel through. You can choose your character from three classes: warrior, mage and ranger. The game brings an open world map where you are free to let your imaginations run wild. Explore the worlds, craft items and build anything you can imagine. You also get to explore beautiful biomes, most of which hides secrets that you can try to find, as you hop from world to world. The game even features a multiplayer mode with up to four players playing co-op or two players in a split screen game as you all try to build your very own world from scratch.Portal Knights features amazing animated graphics and a really addicting RPG play. If you are a fan of sandbox adventures like Minecraft, this is the perfect pick for you.
Star Citizen
Star Citizen is an incredibly ambitious and yet highly anticipated (and not to mention, hyped-up especially players who simply adore the genre) project to create the world's very first open world, sandbox game that's set not only in space but also on the many different planets and other locations that you happen to land on/dock to. The game will be pretty massive and it is developed on an as grand a scale as an indie company possibly can. The end product - the game's currently in early access - might end up looking like a Star Wars/Star Trek-like world that's equally in-depth and likely as diverse. Of course, the science-fiction/futuristic feel simply adds to the enormity of the game.However, being the type of game that even triple-A companies have never yet attempted before, the developers have drawn some flak in regard to the chances of actually finishing the game development process and giving their players - the people who had bought and funded the game - a complete game to play. Many critics think that these players will get burned in the end, but for someone who has grown up somewhat obsessed with almost every "space frontier"-type series ever made, I do hope that Star Citizen will be able to reach its true potential even if that means the downloads will take a painfully long time to complete.
