Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances vs Total War: Attila
Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances
Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances is a decent MMORTS game that is based on the popular strategy game franchise, Command & Conquer. Set in the same universe as its other standalone games, Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances provides MMO players with the ease of being able to play a version of C&C on their web browsers, though that "version" might not be something that hardcore fans of the franchise may actually like. This is mainly because of its gameplay really. Unlike its standalones, this game provides players with the tried-and-true game design that many other browser-based MMOs have used over the years which admittedly doesn't win this game any extra points. Okay, there might be a bit modification to that design but the gameplay is still, overall, rather boring... and for some, disappointingly so.That said, Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances is still a pretty nice game for casual MMO players who are tired of the same old MMO strategy gameplays and would like to try something different for a change. Though be warned, the pace in this game can be a tad bit slow so you might need to bear with it for awhile before you can get to the more interesting stuff.
Total War: Attila
Total War: Attila is relatively new addition to the Total War franchise that is set in the great steppes of the East where a warrior king is rallying up a massive army that would sweep across continents, burning cities as they go. In this game, you play as the commander of western Roman empire whose territories are coming under attack from both outside and inside. Starting with vast swathes of land, your hold over what's left of a crumbling Roman empire will gradually become a struggle for your very survive.This game has similar and iconic mechanics to most Total War games, but there are some important changes made, such as a reworked politcal system, family tree, civic management and technological progression. There are a few significant additions as well, including the incredibly strategic Raze option, allowing you to use the power of fire to terrify defenders or utterly scour entire villages or cities from the face of the Earth. Best yet, Total War: Attila can even serve as some form of educational game as every detail in the game are meticulously recreated based on actual historical documents and references.
Of course, let's not forget to point out how gorgeous the graphics and how realistic everything look and feel in Total War: Attila. It's just incredibly immersive and who know, you might even learn a thing or two about world history!
