Riders of Icarus vs World of Warcraft
Riders of Icarus
Riders of Icarus is an action-based MMORPG that has a heavy focus on its “pets" system which has you taming all sorts of different beasts and animals, each with their own unique abilities, throughout a vast and breathtaking world. Of course, these creatures can then be turned into rideable mounts, allowng you to easily traverse through land, water and even the skies. Although the storyline seems a bit lacking, the game's exciting action-based combat system makes up for it in many ways.So, if you have always wanted to ride behind a magnificent dragon, soaring through the skies, then Riders of Icarus is a game you'll want to try. Even if not, try the game anyway and experience a wild world that's primed for you to tame!
World of Warcraft
World of Warcraft (WoW) is one of the world's most popular and renowned fantasy MMORPGs that offer a well-crafted lore of astounding depth, a wide class selection along with fun character progression and customization, an engaging gameplay as well as a ton of collectibles, be it mounts or pets, for you to... well, collect! Of course, if you really want to get into the game, there are also plenty more features for you to discover, including Pokemon-like pet battles, very competitive PvP, teamwork-focused PvE... you can even develop your own fortress and recruit troops to defend it.Due to its massiveness, it may be rather intimidating for a newcomer to learn the game, but once you've gotten down the fundamentals (especially the basics of playing the class of your choice), the game will draw you into its complex yet intriguing world of orcs, undead, elves, dragons and demons and you'll quickly realize what a gem of an MMORPG you've stumbled into. After all, there's a reason why this game still has millions of active players despite being more than a decade old!
World of Warcraft is a subscription-based MMO, but you can try the game for free for a month. If you're good enough, you can earn enough in-game gold to purchase additional subscription time too.
