49. Warframe

Developer: Digital Extremes

Third-person shooter

Future Shooter

 

 

Slice, dice and shoot in space.

Warframe starts with you waking up as a Tenno, an ancient race of warriors, only to win yourself at war with three different factions. Just know that you will not be fighting this battle alone, for up to three friends can help you. 

Each player will have two ranged weapons and a bladed weapon, as well as having Companions, who will float around your head and help you out. And like the space ninja that you know you are, you can jump, sprint, slide, roll and all sorts of other techniques against your enemies as well as maneuvering around your environment.

The fact that you are not your common solider running around and fighting people should definitely convince you to give this game a shot. Come on now, it’s space ninjas!

Your enemies have picked the wrong opponent to fight.

48. Magicka: Wizard Wars

Developer: Arrowhead Game Studios

MOBA

Fantasy Arena Brawler

 

 

With a little help from your friends.

Magicka: Wizard wars pits four wizards against four others It seems that there are a lack of towers and minions, leaving there nothing standing between you and an opponent that needs a magical beatdown.

There are some features that are of note for people interested in playing. Friendly fire is possible and you may “accidentally” kill your opponent. Also, do well in your matches and you can get new staves, robes and…humor?

The Magicka series seems to pride itself on being humorous and fun, so if that’s your kind of game you should definitely try it out.  I personally think the absence of normal MOBA mechanics in a PvP game is definitely an intriguing idea. I myself might check this out.

Thought sometimes friends fight too.

47. Black Desert Online

Developer: Pearl Abyss

MMORPG, Sandbox

Fantasy Adventure

 

 

Sometimes it's nice to go off the beaten path.

Black Desert takes place in a high fantasy world revolving around a clash between two rival clans. Beyond that, the environment will play a big part in the game.

Some of the key features of this game are the ability of characters to climb, interact and explore buildings and obstacles. Big weather events, like typhoons, will affect gameplay that will be beneficial either to the players or their enemies. Combat is noteworthy, requiring the player be a lot more active than merely clicking on buttons to do battle.

I don’t know about you, but Black Desert sounds like a wonderful game with loads of engaging features. If you like your MMOs with interaction and a dynamic environment, give this game a shot.

Victory at any cost.

46. Wartune

Developer: Sq 7 Road

Browser-based MMO TRPG

Fantasy Adventure

 

 

Always take time to survey your kingdom.

Wartune is game that puts you in charge of managing a town while also leading troops to gather more resources. It looks to be taking a step away from games more focused on building, such as Game of War or Tribal Wars.

You choose a leader of your town from three classes: Knight, Mage or Archer. You will lead a couple legions of men to find treasure, including gold, and valuable minerals. These treasures are then transferred into upgrading your buildings, which I imagine starts a rotating door of tasks.

If you enjoy games where you get a more hands-on method of gathering resources to upgrade your city, give Wartune a shot. The concept definitely seems interesting. 

You come, you see, you conquer.

45. Tera

Developer: Blue Hole

Massively Multiplayer online role-playing game

Fantasy Adventure

 

 

Always nice when the fun games are also free.

Tera, the region, was born from the dreams of two omnipotent titans. Twelve godlike beings were the first inhabitants, but they began to war really soon. The next beings were mortal beings, like your character, but they two found themselves pulled a war not their own.

Tera has many features that shares with other MMOs, but it’s claim to fame lies within its combat system. Rather than simply clicking on the enemy and pushing hotkeys, you’re expected to actively be dodging and striking at your opponent.  This way, you actually feel like you’re in every fight your character takes on. 

If you’re as curious to see what a freeform combat system is like I am, you should give Tera game a shot. If this is the selling point Blue Hole wants to show for their game, it must be pretty spectacular.

It's the future of fantasy worlds.

44. Dirty Bomb

Developer: Nexon

First-person shooter, action

Modern Combat Shooter

 

 

Hope you came for a challenge

Dirty Bomb takes place in London after a radiological attack.  The game seems to play heavily on teamwork, encouraging such through allowing you to revive teammates and shortening the life of those who are the last member on their team alive.

In addition to trying to kill as many of the enemy as you can, the attackers are escorting an Extraction vehicle to a location on the map (Think the bomb escorting game on Team Fortress 2). After that, what they must do next depends on the map. The map is also filled of objects, such as machine gun turrets, which can be activated by either side to assist them.

If you enjoy games where you have to be part of a team, give Dirty Bomb a shot. If the team is very diverse, you can expect to win a lot of matches.  

Now there's an odd slogan for you.

43. Rift

Developer: Trion Worlds

Fantasy MMORPG

Fantasy Adventure

 

 

Looks like the sky is falling

Telara is the focal point of the elemental planes, each plane governed by a dragon-deity. The dragons try to wage war , but were defeated of the inhabitants of Telara and banished from the world. One of these dragons, Regulos the dragon of extinction, has worked his way back into the world and opened up rifts for power up his kin, which will lead to nothing good.

Rift, like the name implies, is largely focused on the players working to seal the rifts. Each dungeon encourages tactical thinking and strategies, but rewards the players handsomely upon completion. The raids are considered end-game content and contain the hardest of the game’s foes.

A game largely focused around dungeons sounds like a very interesting concept.  If raiding was your favorite element of other MMOs, then you should give this game a shot.

Your foes will come from every corner of the unvierse to fight you.

42. Civilization V

Developer: Firaxis

4X Turn-based Strategy

Turn-based City Management

 

 

The people look to you.

With civilization V, you’ll get the chance to change history. Choose from a large variety of leaders, nations, and paths to bring your nation from a nomadic tribe to a country with global influence.  This is a game that you will certainly enjoy if you can understand all the elements that equal success.

The game is turn-based, requires a lot of planning in everything you do, and requires you try to negotiate with your neighbors in a way that benefits you.  This game is as much a game of thinking as it is waging wars. There are a few expansions to this, each one adding a whole new element of gameplay, as well as new faces.

If you are someone who enjoys long games that require a lot of planning, then this game is definitely one you need to check out.  Try and also get some like-minded friends together for some really memorable matches. 

Leave all others in your dust as you become the greatest leader in history.

41. Star Trek Online

Developer: Cryptic Studios

Science-Fiction MMORPG, Third Person Shooter

The final frontier is waiting for you.

When you are tired of engaging in thrilling space combat, there are both exploration missions available as well as missions that players themselves have created. With all these options open to you, space has never seemed so endless.

If you’re a fan of the series or just love flying ships around, then this is a game you really should check out. The game has received so many updates since its original release 5 years ago, so there will be loads of content for new players to experience. 

Somethign big is on the horizon.
