Battlefield Hardline vs Magic Duels: Origins
Battlefield Hardline
Battlefield Hardline is rather nice spin-off from the usual massive battlefields, which happened to be the hallmark of the Battlefield game franchise. In this spin-off though, instead of playing as soldiers in a war, you'll be assuming the character of detective Nick Mendoza in the game's episodic crime drama. Being the lead detective, you'll need to manage your team of cops, gather intel, obtain warrants and take down various criminals and the organizations they are associated with.Many of the features in this game is similar to the ones you'll alrready have encountered in any of the main Battlefield games, including a large arsenal of weapons, a range of vehicles, a variety of gadgets as well as destructible environments. The game also offer four different multiplayer modes where you can play as the cops or the criminal. In a way, the game have a bit of a PayDay feel to it.
Battlefield Hardline is a quite unique spin-off of the series and it has been received pretty well by its fans. The gameplay is as fun as ever. If you like cop games, this is the game you'll want to play.
Magic Duels: Origins
Magic Duels: Origins is another MMOTCG developed by the same people behind Magic: The Gathering Online. However, this game aims bigger - there are more cards - with over 1300 of them - and has a better crafted and in-depth strategy element to it. Play as the iconic Planeswalker as you experience the new story-driven Amonkhet campaign via its Story Mode, or you can play cooperatively with up to 4 of your friends to take down a Two-Headed Giant. Of course, like most card games, there is also a competitive multiplayer mode where you can test your mettle against players from all around the world, but before you dive into the competitive scene, you might want to hone your skills with its vs-AI mode first.However, like most Magic: The Gathering-based games, the game scene can be rather tough for newcomers to break into due to its higher skill ceiling. As a result, the game became more of niche game for fans of the franchise rather than blowing up on the online gaming scene like Hearthstone did. That is not to say that Hearthstone is any easier to play though - it is simply more accessible to new players.
That said, if you're a fan of Magic: The Gathering, you'll want to play this game. To many, it is definitely way better than Magic Online.
