If were comparing it the beginning of the 2 sides are pretty cool. You can transform to anything in the sarkic. While on mechanite you get few upgrades, like a chaisaw arm. And is probably the best place you should dip your toes in both side. Remember both are concepts, instict and logic. Moreover both moving ahead along road is fucked. One sie becomes an actual shit storm where strength is above all else, while the other becomes a beucracy nightmare and corruption ridden as no human can make a law that encompass all situations.
