Neverwinter Nights 2 vs Shadowbound
Neverwinter Nights 2
Neverwinter Nights 2 is the brilliant sequel to the first Neverwinter Nights. This time around, you'll be playing as a farmer-turned-hero who set off on a quest to defeat the King of Shadows. Although the original campaign may be a tad bit cliche, the game truly shines once you get into the first expansion where you'll gain a unique spirit-eating mechanic that will affect your gameplay and change the path of your narrative. Not to mention, like the first game, Neverwinter Nights 2 has been endowed with loads of player-made mods and hence, adventures that you can explore at your leisure, adding to what is already a worthwhile purchase. The game even has an improved toolset which allow players to host their own solo or multiplayer adventures that they can also share to other players.However, being a pretty old game, there will definitely be bugs and glitches that you will have to content with along the way, but overall, Neverwinter Nights 2 can guarantee hundreds and maybe thousands of hours of gameplay (with mods), making it worth every cent you spent on it.
Shadowbound
Shadowbound is a browser-based MMORPG by R2 Games that provides players with a range of features that are customary in browser-based MMORPGs, such as item enhancement, all-powerful guardians and mercenaries that can be recruited to join your team, mounts, pets, PvE dungeons, PvP arenas, wings, auto-routing for quests, guilds, and auto-combat, as well as a cliche storyline. Like most of its simular games, you can expect tons of fun timely events to help break the monotony of simply leveling up and upgrading your team of characters.The thing is Shadowbound doesn't really offer something... anything... that can help it gain extra recognition from even among R2 Games' other casual MMOs. This is quite unfortunate because this is a rather decent browser MMOPRG. That said, if you are itching for a casual MMORPG to play, you might want to check out Shadowbound. It can definitely help you scratch that itch away.
