Rift vs Space Engineers
Rift
Rift is one of the world's top 10 most popular MMORPGs even until today. In fact, many would agree that this game can be considered a classic, which will put it on the same level as epic MMORPGs like World of Warcraft, Guild Wars 2, and Runescape.In this game, you'll need to choose a side – either the Guardians or the Defiant – before venturing into the rift-torn world of Telara. The character customization in this game is absolutely brilliant mainly because you can literally mix and match Callings (a.k.a. classes) and the large number of souls (talent trees) to create the perfect “3-soul talent tree” to fit your own play style. Of course, aside from the usual raiding and PvPing, the game even has exciting world- and zone-based Rift events that involve players from the level cap to the newbies, as well as the incredibly fun, sandbox feature - Dimension Building. You'll be truly amazed at the various creative worlds that Rift players have built over the years.
Surprisingly, there isn't as many immersive MMORPGs anymore at this day and age, and at times, we're thankful that games like Rift still exists and is still going strong. If you pride yourself in being a hardcore MMO gamer, then this is definitely one game you mustn't miss out.
Space Engineers
Space Engineers is an absolutely brilliant and incredibly in-depth sandbox game where you can build your space colony from the ground up, explore space and planets via open-world creative mode, survival mode or scenario-based campaigns, or enjoy some simple fun with other players its other multiplayer-oriented game modes like its racing game mode or its MMO shooter “capture the flag”-style mode.To sum it up, Space Engineers is truly a masterpiece of a very ambitious game especially considering its humble indie roots. The game seems to be a fun hybrid of Everspace, Minecraft, and Satisfactory, all of which are games that I’ve greatly enjoyed. However, I’d like to reiterate that playing the game in multiplayer mode with your friends is the way to go since single-player mode can feel rather boring.
All in all, this is the space game that players have always wanted… no, hungered for. If you liked what you’ve read, be sure to check the game out on Steam and maybe give the game a shot!
