Hitman: Absolution vs Salem
Hitman: Absolution
Hitman: Absolution is the fifth in the series and takes on an interesting twist in the story. With a more accessible gameplay while retaining the core essence of the franchise that you love there is an interesting experience waiting for you.The ICA is demolished from within and it falls to you as Agent 47 to find the culprit, and retrieve an asset important to the organisation. Thus begins another adventure and this time you are hunting one of your own. With all the twists and turns you could want alongside the stealth gameplay that made the series a household name you have a brilliant experience waiting for you. A new feature added here is the option to make your own contract, a facility that enables you to create your own missions for others to play and post them online or send to your friends. All in all another brilliant addition to the series.
Salem
Salem is an old-school and somewhat obscure (but fun) sandbox MMORPG that unlike Wurm Online has a stronger emphasis on its in-depth crafting system and survival aspect rather than building.Similar to Wurm Online though, Salem is not a voxel-based game, but you are still able to mold the game environment through resource gathering, mining and digging in a way that reminds me of the currently-shelved MMORPG, EverQuest Next: Landmark. Of course, although not exactly the focus of the game, you can still build your homestead and the process is quite similar to Wurm Online except that it occurs at a much higher speed.
Not to mention, the game world in Salem is simply humongous to the point where it feels like an actual world. Salem also borrowed some features from ArcheAge where open-world PvP is the norm, so you'll need to be vigilant at all times, but players who kill and steal for no reason will be labelled as criminals and can be punished.
However, as good as it is despite being an indie MMO and all, Salem does have its fair share of flaws due to its low development budget. So, we'd recommend you to take a look at Salem without carrying along any high expectations. It's a pretty good MMORPG like Minecraft, but if you're expecting a Minecraft clone, you may end up disappointing yourself.
