Realm Royale vs TIO: Battlegrounds Royale
Realm Royale
Realm Royale is Hi-Rez Studios' (the developer behind SMITE, Paladins, Tribes: Ascend, etc) interesting take on the battle royale genre, that is by giving it a complete fantasy overhaul and designing it to specifically focus on teamplay.In this game, you'll get to play as one of five classes, namely warrior, mage, hiunter, engineer and assassin, each with their own unique abilities. Unlike many other games that only have modern weapons like guns, this game lets you blast your enemies with spells or slash at them with a sword. As mentioned, the game is very team-based, and hence, it is crucial to have a good mix of classes in your team. Only by working together will you be able to counter other classes, such as having an engineer to put up shields to defend the team from sniper fire, while having an assassin of your own to take out that pesky sniper.
Aside from class abilities, there is no building of any sort in this game. There are also mounts that you can summon when needed, giving you a way to travel vast distances in shorter time. So, in some way, it's more like PUBG than Fortnite.
Realm Royale retains the competitive gameplay that makes battle royale games so addictive to play while presenting the battle royale community with a nice new, fantasy-infused twist. It's hard to say whether this new version of battle royale of theirs will help propel the game to the top, but what we know for sure is that if you're a fan of the genre, this is a game you'll want to try.
TIO: Battlegrounds Royale
TIO: Battlegrounds Royale is the standalone battle royale game mode for the mobile survival game, Thrive Island. Set in a pretty huge open world where you can craft a large variety of items and build shelters or even big buildings as a base of sorts at night. This game has a lot more "survival" gameplay rather than the somewhat intense "battle royale" fights since you are expected to gather resources and scavenge loot just so you can have the best gear to prepare you for the final fight for the title of victor royale!Unlike other battle royale games that have the iconic map-shrinking feature, this game did away with that. Instead, you need to hunt the land for your opponents, which may take awhile, but can be fun when you catch someone by surprise. Interestingly, the game even has a zombie mode where you can turn your slain foes into zombies. Not sure how this fit into the battle royale gameplay though.
All in all, TIO: Battlegrounds Royale feels a lot like a hardcore survival game rather than a battle royale mainly because it places emphasis on building a good shelter, gathering raw resources (as opposed to finding ready-made items) and well, crafting. The game is also a work-in-progress so you can expect a less-polished game that could use your feedback to improve.
