Cloud Pirates vs Ylands
Cloud Pirates
Cloud Pirates is a breathtaking and exhilarating, arena-based, action MMO game where you'll get to play as a pirate captain of a majestic airship. Featuring an objective-based gameplay, Cloud Pirates will pit teams of players and their airships in the skies as they try to outmaneuver each other and shoot their opponents' hulls off. The ship customization aspect of the game is also incredibly in-depth and you'll even get to recruit crew to man your larger airships. The variety of game events give players a nice respite from the intense competitively-ranked matches as well.Despite its fantasy/sci-fi-theme, Cloud Pirates is a perfect alternative for players who enjoy piloting identifiable flying objects like planes and, in this case, airships. Has this game peaked your interest? Well, don't wait - sail the skies and around the floating islands of Sarnaut today and strive to become the best pirate captain there is!
Ylands
Ylands is a sandbox adventure game that has a gameplay that's a lot like a massively expanded version of Minecraft with a lot more resources for you to gather, items to craft, and amazing things to build. Instead of being "just a game", Ylands is more like a platform, much like Roblox is, where players are given the tools to create whatever worlds or games they like, be it a fun go-kart racing game that's inspired from Lega Racers or even a watery world where epic pirate-themed naval battles can take place. The worlds are completely interactive as well and every action you do will modify, no matter how slightly, the game environment of that segment of the world you happen to be in. In fact, if you change a terrain and populate it with an entirely different diversity of flora and fauna, you can basically change the climate system there.Unlike Minecraft though, Ylands has opted for a more polygonal appearance which gave it the extra leverage it needed to overcome the painful dismissal and degratory label of being simply a "Minecraft clone" - which admittedly, Ylands is most definitely not. The game has so much going for it and players truly have all the freedom within the game's pretty wide parameters to literally create anything they like. Of course, the game also supports sharing, so you can let other players in Yland enjoy that (for example) crazy maze-running game you've just made!
Ylands is most certainly impressive to say the least. However, due to its indie origins, not many players know about the game, let alone buy it on Steam. So, if you really like Minecraft-like sandbox games, you simply must give this game a try, and if you've had a great time there, be sure to recommend it to your friends or even buy it for them as their Christmas/ birthday gift!
