Dragon Nest vs Sword Art Online
Dragon Nest
Dragon Nest is an anime-themed MMORPG that features adorable "chibi" characters who pack a punch when it comes to combat. Unlike other Korean-made titles, Dragon Nest is among the first of its kind to turn its questing areas into instanced zones that can be entered solo or in a group, while keeping cities and quest hubs multiplayer. Of course, that's not including the game's amazing action-based combat that is integral to its gameplay. Featuring flashy and insanely-cool animations and sound effects, Dragon Nest made itself camera-ready for streamers, YouTubers and normal players alike.Character progression in this game is quite different as well. After choosing 1 out of 7 classes, players will be able to later specialize into 1 of 2 sub-classes. Each class has their own unique set of abilities and skills too, allowing for players to obtain a fresh perspective on the gameplay simply by playing another class. Of course, Dragon Nest also has among the most beautiful and memorable soundtracks available.
Surprisingly though, there isn't a lot of MMORPGs that follow in the footsteps that this amazing game has set, but in some way, this is probably a good thing - Dragon Nest's unique approach to being an MMO is, until this very day, a main reason why this game stands out.
Sword Art Online
Sword Art Online , published by Instant Funs - the very people behind the successful idle-like MMO game, Pokemon Mega, is a free-to-play, anime-themed, idle-like MMORPG that puts you in the shoes of a participant in the virtual yet ruthless world of Aincrad where you have to level up and improve in order to survive. Although the game doesn't really put much focus on its storyline - it's pretty much non-existent, its gameplay can still be quite entertaining to play.As you may expect from an idle-like game, you don't really get to play your character, whether you chose the swordsman, the archer or the mage. In spite of its automatic combat, however, the game has tons of other stuff for you to do including upgrading your weapon and armor, honing your skills, and smelting items you don’t need. There are plenty of PvE dungeons, including instances where you can farm for upgrade materials or monster hunts where you can get legendary gear, as well as PvP arena and cross-server tournaments to boot!
So, regardless of whether you know what its namesake is all about, you might still want to give Sword Art Online a try especially if you enjoy idle-like MMOs. The game will just suck you right in!
