Chronicles of Eidola vs Dungeon Siege
Chronicles of Eidola
Chronicles of Eidola may appear to just be like “any other” browser MMORPGs, but it is most certainly not. For starters, the storyline is rather different. After trading your soul for the ability to wield the immense powers of the Holy Covenant, you are now able recruit mystical and powerful creatures called Eidola to fight at your side as you journey to seek the Holy Grail. Now, these Eidola aren't just for show - they can really pack a punch. This is why it's important to keep your team constantly updated so you can keep up with the increasingly difficult enemies. Of course, in addition to the Eidola, there are many more features that you might be more familiar with, such as the PvP and PvE activities and events, character progression and combat/questing automation.Overall, Chronicles of Eidola is a pretty fun MMORPG to play on your browser, and is a great alternative game to play if you're a fan of any of the casual MMO games out there.
Dungeon Siege
Dungeon Siege is a classic dungeon crawler that predates the first Torchlight but not the Diablo series. In this game, you play as a humble farmer who sets off across a 3D fantasy world, battling against hordes of enemies as the storyline unfolds. The most interesting part of this game, back in the day, is that it's a dungeon crawling game that is set above ground and surprisingly not in dungeons. In some way, it is more like certain parts of Diablo 2 and also Path of Exile.The game also has an interesting take on loot and inventory management. You'll get a ton of loot as befit a dungeon crawler, but the thing is you have a very limited inventory, even with a pack mule, and no vendors nearby enough to sell your loot to. So, you'll likely end up throwing most stuff on the ground just so you can move on. Dungeon Siege even allows you to assemble up to a party of 8 characters to aid you in your journey.
However, Dungeon Siege is a really old game and as such, the Steam version does have its fair share of glitches. You may experience constant crashes and installation difficulties even if you're running a top-notch desktop set-up. Some players have also mentioned that the ending of the game was cropped off somehow and that this version of the game doesn't include its expansion or a multiplayer option.
All in all, Dungeon Siege is among the top 5 classic dungeon crawlers back in the day and if you are interested to give it a try, you can get the game for as low as $1 during a Steam sale.
