For The Glory A Europa Universalis Game vs Sins of a Solar Empire
For The Glory A Europa Universalis Game
For The Glory A Europa Universalis Game is rather like an updated version of Europa Universalis II with a chunk of mods bundled together. So, in some aspects, the game is essentially better than Europa Universalis II in every way (due to the mods). There are more historically accurate events for you to deal with, more countries (over 180 of them) to play as, and better nation-building features, for example. However, many players have complained of bugs - bugs that will never be fixed since the development process for this game has long stopped... the game is 8 years old at the time of writing.However, if you're planning to buy Europa Universalis II, you might as well give this game a look-over first. Who knows? You might find that this game saves you the time needed to search for, download and install the mods you'd want to get anyway.
Sins of a Solar Empire
Sins of a Solar Empire is a massive real-time strategy game with an impressively in-depth background story filled with political intrigue, faction conflicts and a mysterious divisive influence that threatens to tear the Advent Unity apart from within. Play as a loyalist ot a rebel and amass a space fleet consisting of a wide variety of ships including Capital ships, Corvettes and the scales-tipping Titan class warships. Sins of a Solar Empire is also a uniquely non-linear game where there are multiple paths, be it military action or diplomacy, that you can take to obtain victory.The game even attempted to coin a new genre called "4X" that stands for eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate which is basically what the game is all about. You'll be exploring the solar system, expanding your fleet, exploiting allies and exterminating your enemies. After all, the survival of your faction should be your sole concern.
So, if building massive empires in space is your thing, Sins of a Solar Empire is exactly the game you need to play.
