Atlantica Online vs Heroes of Might & Magic 2
Atlantica Online
Atlantica Online is a pretty old MMORPG that has been around since 2008. As opposed to the usual action-based or even the hack-and-slash gameplay that most MMORPGs offer, this game is perhaps the first of its kind (and by "kind" we mean Free-to-play MMOs) to merge strategy/tactics with RPG, allowing players to fight their enemies using a team of mercs rather than just a single main hero. In fact, this gameplay formula has actually been adopted and used in many browser-based MMOs today.Although ultimately the main villian in the game is Riederani and his army, the storyline in this game is also slightly different based on which faction you choose to opt for, either the Scion or the Atlantian. There are plenty of character classes too, each playing their own roles within the team. Despite its age, Atlantica Online still sports a robust in-game economy and is a strong proponent of fairplay when it comes to PvP.
However, the best part about this game is its link to events happening in real life. The game itself is based on the real map of the world we live in and as such, major events that recently happened or had happened ages ago in our world will be manisfested, one way or another, in the game. How awesome is that?
Atlantica Online might not remotely resemble the graphical quality of today's MMORPGs, but the game itself is unique and fun enough to stick around until today. This speaks volume about the value that this game brings to the lives of many gamers worldwide, doesn't it? If you enjoy being intrigued by games and you don't really mind poorer visuals, then this is a game you should try out.
Heroes of Might & Magic 2
Heroes of Might & Magic 2 returns you to Enroth, where Ironfist has claimed his kingdom and reigned with honor, but now he is passing and he leaves his 2 son’s Roland and Archibald. Of course there can be only 1 king so the drama begins and it is Archibald who becomes king, though in such a way that leaves the Hero of the story Roland a chance to return and claim the kingdom. Thus begins a stunning game full of action, adventure and all the gameplay you love from the first.There are now 6 factions for you to play, each with their own heroes and abilities. There are also new powers and abilities for your heroes to use, a revamped magic system and the more choice in how you play your game. You still have the hybrid gameplay mix you love as well. All in all an epic game and a great sequel and addition to the story.
