Why not compare SK to a game that it actually is similar to.
Spiral Knights VS Secrets of Grindea.
I made a list of some of the comparisons here.
hello, Raigingdeamon here, forum dweller of the forums of warframe. you may know me for dwelling SK's forums.
SK has gone a dark road, and the devs not talking to the fanbase isn't helping. right now we don't know what they are doing, there is no hype for content, and all we get are reskins and recolors.
the artwork and music of SK are surely superior to warframe, the gameplay isn't remotely comparable (third person space ninja shooter vs isometric space dungeon crawler), the level design is kind of similar in concept but it's surely better implemented in waframe.
in the end, it's better to play warframe, and better to chill out in SK. right now getting to vanguard rank in SK is a pain in the <.lower back.>.
The only reason I didn't play Warframe is I have a mac. Otherwise I would be playing both. The one biggest thing SK has that Warframe doesn't, though, is regular PvP.
Warframe's actually where I've BEEN all this time. Mostly for the regular content-filled updates.
Yes, we got new missions in Spiral Knights, woohoo. The core opened, which was the whole driving point of the endless game, so Spiral Knights has technically jumped the shark.
Still way too late for me to care as much as I used to. Certainly not enough to start playing again. I only looked at the forums due to nostalgia, and only posted here since I saw a thread about a game I still actually like.
Warframe is indeed great game with often updates containing endless content. The problem is that I can't get into it and every time I try (and I tried numerous times), I'm dropping it after it. Probably because Warframe doesn't seem to be newbie-friendly to me, while in SK NPCs are explaining everything and progress is pretty linear in term of missions, which are simple&fun and can be done solo.
Spiral Knights is a top down smash and slash silly fest with cartoony graphics. Warframe is a Thirdperson Scifi FPS with awesome guns and space ninjas. The Grind is Real in both. Spiralknights has a linear mission system, where Warframe is much more open ended.
Ultimately, if you have fun playing a game, the grind isn't bad.
The only reason I didn't go to Warframe with others is that Warframe isn't cute and adorable whereas Spiral Knights is very much cute and adorable.
It would be interesting to see what anyone coming from Warframe (if there are any) have to say.
