Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions vs Fire Emblem Heroes
Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions
Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions is a turn-based strategy/RPG spin-off from the main Final Fantasy franchise. The original Final Fantasy Tacitcs was very well-received back when it was first released. Due to this, the Square Enix has had the game revamped and we get a sequel of sorts as a result. The original game has not only been ported to the mobile platform, it also features all of the new improvements you'd expect, including better cinematics, new characters, more than 20 job classes and extra missions. You can play the game alone or with a friend via its co-op mode as well.Final Fantasy Tactics was one of the best spin-offs for the Final Fantasy franchise and Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions did a good enough job to not disappoint. It might be buggy from time to time, but it's still the favorite game you knew.
Fire Emblem Heroes
Fire Emblem Heroes is a turn-based strategy/RPG that's inspired in part by the popular Fire Emblem series by Nintendo. However, many fans are calling this game a sold-out because the game has drastically dumbed-down mechanics (no terrain effects, for example) and difficulty that will put the other games in the popular series to shame. Granted that the game needs to be modified to fit the mobile platform and appeal to the more casual mobile gamers, the game is still rather disappointing for hardcore fans of the series.That said, the game features characters from one of Nintendo’s most popular games, an anime-ish storyline, and thankfully, it retains the series' "paper-scissors-stone"-styled combat system. There are plenty of maps for you to battle on, though they may be a tad bit small, and the gameplay is fast-paced enough to be engaging. You can even fight other players with your team of five heroes or come up with new strategies via the practice arena.
Fire Emblem Heroes is the sort of game that's targeted towards a casual audience, and even as this is true, fans of the series might still want to try the game out. You may end up not liking it but at least you can claim to have given this game a chance. However, if you love casual games and the Fire Emblem games, then this is definitely a must-download for you.
