My Blacksail vs Ylands
My Blacksail
My Blacksail is a pretty fun, pirate-themed MMORPG whereby you get to captain your very own fleet of ships in a dangerous, monsters-filled realm hidden behind the dimensional gateway at Bermuda Triangle. Take on challenging monsters and rival pirates alike and hone your skills. Upgrade your ship or craft a new one so you can defeat stronger and tougher opponents. The variety of dungeons and quests provided in this game is also pretty amazing. Not to mention, the gameplay is very well-executed but the most interesting part is that the rules of its turn-based combat changes depending on the type of ship you use.With great visuals and sound to boot, My Blacksail is a solid browser MMO with plenty of fun activities to do. Do give it a try!
Ylands
Ylands is a sandbox adventure game that has a gameplay that's a lot like a massively expanded version of Minecraft with a lot more resources for you to gather, items to craft, and amazing things to build. Instead of being "just a game", Ylands is more like a platform, much like Roblox is, where players are given the tools to create whatever worlds or games they like, be it a fun go-kart racing game that's inspired from Lega Racers or even a watery world where epic pirate-themed naval battles can take place. The worlds are completely interactive as well and every action you do will modify, no matter how slightly, the game environment of that segment of the world you happen to be in. In fact, if you change a terrain and populate it with an entirely different diversity of flora and fauna, you can basically change the climate system there.Unlike Minecraft though, Ylands has opted for a more polygonal appearance which gave it the extra leverage it needed to overcome the painful dismissal and degratory label of being simply a "Minecraft clone" - which admittedly, Ylands is most definitely not. The game has so much going for it and players truly have all the freedom within the game's pretty wide parameters to literally create anything they like. Of course, the game also supports sharing, so you can let other players in Yland enjoy that (for example) crazy maze-running game you've just made!
Ylands is most certainly impressive to say the least. However, due to its indie origins, not many players know about the game, let alone buy it on Steam. So, if you really like Minecraft-like sandbox games, you simply must give this game a try, and if you've had a great time there, be sure to recommend it to your friends or even buy it for them as their Christmas/ birthday gift!
