Knives Out vs Vanquish
Knives Out
Knives Out is a pretty decent mobile battle royale game - the latest of which to hit the mobile platform for both Android and iOS. Developed by Netease, this game features everything you'd come to expect from a battle royale game, including the massive 100-player, details-covered battleground that is gradually shrinking, the arsenal of weapons you can scavenge for, and of course, the intense PvP action especially when it comes down to the last 2 survivors... with you being one of them.If you're looking for a battle royale game that's "more of the same", then Knives Out will do the trick for you. However, it will definitely need more work if it wants to stand out from among the many increasingly well-designed battle royale games out there.
Vanquish
Vanquish puts you into the shoes of government operative, Sam Gideon, who is part of the elite group of operatives that has their own Augmented Reaction Suit which give them superior firepower, superhuman speed and agility as well as a certain amount of suave as they take down groups of hostile and deadly robots. The combat system in this game is incredibly well-made and unique. Aside from having a bullet time system, it also provides players with a smooth gameplay, be it when they are performing kinetic melee moves or when they are trading gunfire with the robots.However, many players have mentioned about the flaw when it comes to weapon upgrades in this game. Unlike most games, you actually have to be equipping the correct gun type in order to pick up the upgrade cube, which randomly appears. It does provide players with the incentive to keep replaying the game but it can be pretty frustrating if you had to give up picking up a hard-earned cube because you don't have the weapon you need.
Besides this downside though, Vanquish is among the top-most third-person shooters that have excellent, well-designed mechanics. If you enjoy smooth combat and a cool and somewhat Halo-like suit, then this is definitely the game for you!
