Realm Royale vs Vanquish
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.
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!
