Paladins vs Totally Accurate Battlegrounds
Paladins
Paladins is a breakout MMO hero shooter game that offers a smooth mix of objective-based matches and arcade-styled, first-person shooting. In addition to an amazing lineup of champions of varying skills and abilities to play as, the game also incorporates a unique card-based loadout system where you'll need to adapt to the random cards that you get as you play. The matches themselves are team-oriented and fast-paced as well. Best yet, the game is going to launch its new battle royale game mode soon, which guarantees to put a twist to the conventional genre.Paladins: Champions of the Realm is a great alternative to games like Team Fortress 2, Dirty Bomb and Overwatch. Both competitive and casual players will definitely enjoy this game!
Totally Accurate Battlegrounds
Totally Accurate Battlegrounds has rapidly grown from being simply a belated April Fools' parody of the increasingly popular Battle Royal genre into a full-blown battle royale game itself (note the irony). The game has a fun crystalline-like graphical style and a gameplay that may remind you of Player Unknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG)... basically meaning that although you cannot build stuff, you can drive vehicles, including helicopters.What sets this game apart from all the other battle royale games is how "not serious" the game takes itself. The silliness in this game is through the roof, making it an excellent game to goof around with friends. The game touts a "physics-based everything", giving rise to hilarious moments while playing, such as getting blown off the ledge you're barely standing on due to the recoil effect from your gun. Of course, like PUBG, there are tons of cosmetics for your "weirdo" character to wear, sometimes to comedic effect - a Gandalf-slash-samurai, anyone?
In the realm of competitive battle royale gaming, it's really nice to see a game such as Totally Accurate Battlegrounds taking a mickey out of the possibly-overhyped and heavily-marketed genre. The game is currently undergoing a major overhaul due to its shift from free-to-play to premium and will be adding in anti-cheat measure and matchmaking, as well as improving server operations. As such, if you're thinking of getting this game, you might want to wait a bit.
