Guild Wars 2 vs Identity
Guild Wars 2
Guild Wars 2 is one of the world's most recognizable MMORPGs and is listed among the topmost MMO games of all time... a position that is hotly contested by another equally epic MMORPG, World of Warcraft. However, unlike WoW, the game abhors the subscription model and, like Elder Scrolls Online, has opted for a more feasible and, honestly, a more player-fair model - the buy-once-to-play model.That aside, Guild Wars 2 has a ton of content that doesn't live up to its title but also make every cent you've spent to buy the game prove its worth several times over. What's not to like right? In addition to an incredibly addictive gameplay where combat is action-based and battles are affected by a one-of-a-kind, weapons-and-profession-based skills system, you get updates for free! There are fun, dynamic questing events, massive cross-server PvP events, and even... wait for it... underwater combat!
Best yet, the game has recently relented a little due to the release of its major expansion back in 2015, allowing new players to try the base game out for completely free! After all, it’s not every day you’ll get to enjoy one of the best games in MMO history for free. So, don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity and play Guild Wars 2 today!
Identity
Identity aims to disrupt the traditional grindy and repetitive gameplay of modern MMORPGs by introducing an MMORPG that has an open world that's free of restrictions; a place where players can determine their own destinies as well as the world around them. The game features a massive, rich and immersive open world which includes all sorts of landscapes as well as means of moving around, such as vehicles, bicycles and trains. There are also jobs and careers of all types, both legit and illegal ones, that you can dive into. Each job you take has its own progression path which will see you rising up in ranks if you do your job well.The game even offers players their own virtual homes to decorate as they wish. Players can do a lot of stuff at home as well, such as crafting, growing plants, creating goods to be sold to other players and more. In fact, if you've the business acumen, you can set up a small enterprise and grow it into a huge corporation, especially considering that almost everything in the game can be designed and created by players.
In some way, Identity feels like a game that attempts to combine the fun of MMORPGs with a massive, sandbox-like virtual world with the likes of Second Life or IMVU. So, if this sounds like what you'd enjoy in a game, then you should definitely check it out.
