APB Reloaded vs SMITE
APB Reloaded
APB Reloaded is an online MMO third person shooter(TPS) game where players can choose to play as police enforcers or criminals (as opposed to terrorists and counter-terrorists). The game has a punky style as well as a gameplay that may bring to mind other gangster-themed RPGs like Grand Theft Auto after being fused with conventional shooter games like Counter Strike or Call of Duty.In this game, you get to roam freely around a large city and interact with NPCs to take on missions, some of which are PvP battles with the opposing faction. Like GTA games, APB Reloaded also allows you to customize your character in a rather in-depth manner where you'll get to pick different outfits to wear.
In short, players who love to play a third-person MMO shooter with a Grand Theft Auto vibe should definitely check this game out!
SMITE
SMITE is a competitive and rather popular (ranked around 3rd worldwide), mythological MOBA game that stands out from all the other MOBA games as players in this game battle it out in a unique third person view. In fact, despite being fundamentally the same tower-pushing gameplay, the entire gaming experience is very different as well mainly due to its controls, the group sharing of experience points and gold, as well as the way you do combat. Instead of the common incessant clicking, players will get to play their characters through the usual RPG controls in a somewhat action-based combat.The game also retains most of the old MOBA elements such as having an in-match item shop, a wide array of gods to play as along with unlockable skins depending on your god's rank, and a three-laned map. But it does change things up by making the game a bit friendlier to newcomers by having a recommendation system for puchasing in-match items.
SMITE may not be very unique in this day and age especially considering the large number of MOBA games, but back when it was released, the game was quite revolutionary. Even if you prefer the old-school MOBA gameplay, we'd recommend trying this game just to experience the MOBA genre in a whole new way.
