9th Dawn II vs Zenonia 5
9th Dawn II
9th Dawn II is the exciting sequel to a pretty awesome game series. Similar to the original game, 9th Dawn II provides players with a wide, open world of Caspartia, which consists of a myriad of places to discover. But instead of locking you to a single class even before you start playing, the game adopts a more Runescape-like (old-school) approach where your skill use determines which type of character you’ll be. So, if you want to be a mage, simply use magic often.The game also features a much-improved GUI, which makes managing your inventory, spells, world map and quest journal easier. However, many players have complained that the starter gear for the class they are trying to build just costs too much. It’d be nice to lower the prices so newcomers can at least have some gear and be able to slowly ease into the game.
9th Dawn II, like its predecessor, is the sort of old-school RPG that appeals mainly to fans of the genre. Unless you really enjoy hard, old-school RPGs, you might find this game too difficult to get into or too grindy to be enjoyable.
Zenonia 5
Zenonia 5 is an anime action RPG and the most recent sequel to the main Zenonia series. Although the game offers a lot more of the same things (controls and gameplay), it does provide players with a fresh new selection of classes and characters, namely Abel the Berserker, Neal the Wizard, Ryan the Paladin and Evan the Gunslinger, along with a brand new storyline. Due to the use of specific named characters, you'll have limited options when it comes to character customization.It seems like Gamevil leanred their lesson from Zenonia 4, allowing Zenonia 5 to be a much better version. They have even polished up all the typos and mispellings that litter the previous game. So, if you really want to try Zenonia, then Zenonia 5 is perhaps a great game to start the series with.
