Rust vs Tropico 5
Rust
Rust is hardcore survival game where the only aim for every player in the game is to survive. Being a survival game, your character will have needs that you'll need to fulfill or risk getting ill or worse... dying from it. There are tons of recipes for you to craft a wide variety of items from as long as you've got the resources you need, and you can also hunt and built a shelter.As fun as this game may sound, the community in this game can be a bit toxic. Most players have a kill-on-sight policy (even if you're naked and literally have nothing with you) and this means playing alone can be very frustrating. If you're planning to play this game, you might want to get a larger group of friends - maybe somewhere around 5 or more players - or you'll quickly realize you want your money back now.
Tropico 5
Tropico 5 lets you reprise your role as a dictator of a nice tropical nation where, this time around, you'll get to expand your country from the early colonial period into the future. The game features improved and advanced new mechanics for trading, research, and exploration. Interestingly, there are a few brand new features in this installment including the dynasty system where cronism finally get a chance to flourish alongside corruption, and two types of multiplayer modes, namely co-op and competitive multiplayer (up to 4 players).Some players prefers the 4th game rather than the 5th and it is somewhat obvious to know why. For Tropico 5, once you've figured out a "formula" which admittedly can take awhile unless you go and look it up on YouTube, you can keep using it for all the maps and missions. This simply turns Tropico 5 into a hilariously simple game to play. That said, Tropico has always been a game that works that way and if you really want a challenge, you can easily make things worse for yourself and your people before trying to fix everything up again.
