Ragnarok Online 2 vs Sword Art Online
Ragnarok Online 2
Ragnarok Online 2 is a 3D anime-themed MMORPG that is the incredibly well-received sequel to the popular game of the millenium, Ragnarok Online, which was released 10 years after the launch of the original game. In actuality, many players would argue that Ragnarok Online 2 is not a sequel but rather a revamped version of the original game since the game is essentially the same except with massive overhauls in terms of its gameplay mainly to accomodate the new 3D graphics but also to incorporate popular new game mechanics. There are also changes done to the game's previous card system that now allows players to equip the cards to their character rather than attaching them to the gear they use.Ragnarok Online 2 may not be drastically different from its predecessor when it comes to its contents, but the shiny new 3D look does breathe new life into the Ragnarok franchise, attracting a new generation of players who likely grew up only knowing and playing 3D games. In some ways, this game is a great alternative to Ragnarok Online if you can't stand the 2D look.
Sword Art Online
Sword Art Online , published by Instant Funs - the very people behind the successful idle-like MMO game, Pokemon Mega, is a free-to-play, anime-themed, idle-like MMORPG that puts you in the shoes of a participant in the virtual yet ruthless world of Aincrad where you have to level up and improve in order to survive. Although the game doesn't really put much focus on its storyline - it's pretty much non-existent, its gameplay can still be quite entertaining to play.As you may expect from an idle-like game, you don't really get to play your character, whether you chose the swordsman, the archer or the mage. In spite of its automatic combat, however, the game has tons of other stuff for you to do including upgrading your weapon and armor, honing your skills, and smelting items you don’t need. There are plenty of PvE dungeons, including instances where you can farm for upgrade materials or monster hunts where you can get legendary gear, as well as PvP arena and cross-server tournaments to boot!
So, regardless of whether you know what its namesake is all about, you might still want to give Sword Art Online a try especially if you enjoy idle-like MMOs. The game will just suck you right in!
