Age of Conan: Unchained vs Toontown Rewritten
Age of Conan: Unchained
Age of Conan: Unchained is an MMORPG that's based on the timeless classic comic and TV series, Conan the Barbarian. Featuring one of the best fantasy-themed lore, the game also has a very unique action-based combat system that, despite its steep learning curve, is comparable to that of TERA... though, we'd say that combat in this game is much more varied. You can weave spells, attempt to capture battlekeeps with massive siege machines and even enjoy some good ol' mounted combat that is surprisingly not at all too clunky. However, you should bear in mind that this MMO has been around for quite some time, so the graphics in this game might be a tad bit old fashioned.What we love the most about Age of Conan is that the game actually rewards players who go off the beaten track and explore the secret corners of the world that questlines will never bring you to. The shift from being a subscription-based MMO to becoming a free-to-play MMO has been very well-received too, mainly because it injects a certain amount of much-needed players into its population and well, it allows newcomers to try the game out at no cost.
All in all, Age of Conan is a solid MMORPG that is very well-suited for players who like to explore and a challenge. Hardcore fans of Conan may want to try this game out as well, even if it's only to experience the different storylines in the game.
Toontown Rewritten
Toontown Rewritten is the exciting reboot (not affiliated with Disney or the original Toontown game though) of the popular child-friendly MMO/virtual world game, Toontown Online! The game feels a lot like the original Toontown in a lot of ways - you'll still get to create and customize your very own "Toon" and dive into the battle (literally with a nice cartoonish flair) against the nefarious Cogs who want to turn the whacky and colorful Toontown into a cluster of dreary and boring office buildings.The game provides players with a whole lot of stuff to do. Aside from meeting new friends and chilling with them, you can complete fun quests, explore the town itself, do some gardening, fishing or even racing, and you can also play some really entertaining yet challenging, puzzle-based mini-games.
Toontown Rewritten is a great spiritual successor for the now defunct Toontown Online and will definitely delight both fans and newcomers alike. However, the game is a fan-made game and hence, there will be multiple technical errors and difficulties which you should definitely let the developers know. By helping them out, you'll be able to also enjoy a game that's as bug-free as possible.
