Dragon's Prophet vs MapleStory 2
Dragon's Prophet
Dragon's Prophet is a free to play fantasy MMO that transports you to Auratia, a realm where dragons fill the sky, land and sea! In this game, you’ll be able to capture, train and fight alongside your very own dragons! Your dragons can also be used as mounts and as assistants to help you gather crafting materials. There are over 300 unique types of dragons that you can catch and each of them has different stats and special abilities. The combat system in this game is fast-paced and action-based, and the dragons play an integral role in it in addition to your skill mastery. There are even player housing (only if you're rich in-game), plenty of PvP and PvE options, questing, character classes, gathering and crafting, and many more.In many ways, Dragon's Prophet is very like a playable MMORPG version of the movie How to Train Your Dragon where its humor is all replaced with the cool animations and actions of what you think an actual dragon rider would be like. Not to mention, if you enjoy playing MMOs that have a pet/mount collecting aspect, you'll definitely love Dragon's Prophet.
MapleStory 2
MapleStory 2 is the highly-anticipated sequel to the popular 2D side-scrolling MMORPG/virtual world game, MapleStory. However, this game is almost unrecognisable as "MapleStory" due to the massive changes (some positive, some.... well, not so much) done to the game. For starters, the game is fully in 3D now and it adopted a voxel-based style which is similar to Portal Knights and Trove. The game is also more customizable than ever, allowing players to not only build their own homes in the game; they can also design outfits and gear for their characters. Of course, you will still be able to change your character's looks, such as changing ther hairstyle and color, as well.Despite all the outer and some internal changes, the game's core remained unchanged - it is still a social virtual world-like MMO game where players can just relax by taking a dip in their outdoor pool if they tire of adventures and monster slaying. They can even drop by a friend's place and just to hang out.
MapleStory 2 is definitely not simply a "copy-paste" version of the original. Instead, the developers have given the game and the franchise new life by adapting the game to the tastes of the current generation of gamers. It is still not available worldwide despite being touted as "globally released", but most countries should be able to access it by now. If your country is covered, you might want to give the game a try!
