Eden Eternal vs Fairy Tail: Hero's Journey
Eden Eternal
Eden Eternal is an anime-based MMORPG developed by X-Legend, the developing company behind popular anime titles, like Grand Fantasia and Kitsu Saga. The game features a very unique, but can be rather overwhelming character class system. It also provides other character stats customization including class talents, character traits and 5 different races. Combat in this game is augmented with a battle pet system whereby you can train your own battle pet to help you deal extra damage or to provide you with heals instead. The game even has a soulmate system, in which couples are given special lovers’ skills, except in PvP environments, when they are playing together. In addition to the usual PvE and PvP MMO fare, there is a crafting system whereby you can craft your own weapons, an auction house, guild towns and treasure hunting as well!The world in Eden Eternal is being torn apart by racial strife and only you can stop it… the only question left here is… can you do it?
Fairy Tail: Hero's Journey
Fairy Tail: Hero's Journey is actually an official browser MMO game for the popular magic-dueling anime, Fairy Tail, unlike some of the anime MMOs we've encountered so far. Featuring all the familiar cast of characters, this game will pit your team of hand-picked heroes against the anime’s biggest villains as you battle your way through the Grand Magic Games and hopefully, help your guild, Fairy Tail, secure its title of being the most powerful magic guild in Fiore. However, things don’t go as planned and soon enough, you may find yourself embroiled in an adventure that’s much more intriguing…The game plays out much like your typical browser MMO. This basically means that combat is automated and questing is semi-automated as well. You won't be fighting alone either - you will eventually be able to assemble a team of mages, along with a pet and mount, to help you along in your journey. These mages, mount and pet can of course be upgraded to increase their combat efficiency and hence, your overall combat power.
Fairy Tail: Hero's Journey may have the blessing and perhaps even backing of the actual anime franchise, but the game isn't exactly breaking the typical mould that defines a browser MMO. It's fun enough for fans of the anime and for casual-like MMOs though, and if you're among the players who fall into one of these two camps, you'll want to give the game a try.
