Infinity Blade vs Life is Feudal: MMO
Infinity Blade
Infinity Blade is an epic RPG for iOS that was developed on an engine that many triple-A standalone games are built on. Based on the novel series of the same name by Brandon Sanderson, the game has a somewhat cliché yet inspirational storyline where you play as the hero of the people who embarks on a journey to dethrone the ruthless God King and vanquish his legion of Titans in hopes of finally ending the legacy of darkness he has created.The gameplay in Infinity Blade is both intuitive and easy to learn. With a mere swipe of the finger, for example, you can attack, dodge, block and cast spells to slay your enemy. The character customization in this game is astonishingly in-depth as well, featuring a seriously wide range of equipment to acquire, skills to master and a hero to level up.
Infinity Blade proves to other game developers and gamers alike of what is possible even on the seemingly “casual” mobile platform. If you own an iOS device and enjoys a good RPG, this game might just be the game you need!
Life is Feudal: MMO
Life is Feudal: MMO is a medieval-themed sandbox MMORPG that offers you a pretty hardcore survival gameplay where death and bad behavior are both severely penalized. You can also craft a wide variety of tools and items, build amazing forts and other structures, and explore a huge world and see other people’s creations.All of these sound great and all, but what truly makes this game stand out is its iconic, karma-like system called the Alignment system. Players who break common sense norms, like not stealing other people’s harvest, destroying people’s homes, or even killing another player unprovoked, will get marked with a negative alignment. The punishment from this system isn’t instant or swift, but if the bad-behaving player dies with negative alignment, he may risk losing all that he has worked hard for. He may potentially lose all of the skill points he had painstakingly grinded for.
On the downside, the combat in this game still feels a tad bit clunky and many players have mentioned that the cosmetics in-game shop are sold at ridiculous prices. The game is still currently in early access as well and thus, the game does have its fair share of bugs.
Although many have drawn a comparison with Wurm Online, those very same players would probably unanimously agree that Life is Feudal simply looks much better and plays out a whole lot better as well. The dynamicity of its world is astounding and the alignment system serves as a great deterrent to bad and toxic players. Life is Feudal may not be the ultimate medieval-themed sandbox MMORPG, but it’s pretty close.
