Final Fantasy Brave Exvius vs Grand Chase Reborn
Final Fantasy Brave Exvius
Final Fantasy Brave Exvius is a mobile MMORPG focusing on collecting heroes and assembling strong teams. The characters in the game are almost all based on the popular Final Fantasy franchise from Square Enix so you might see more than your fair share of familiar faces if you're a hardcore Final Fantasy fan, but the game does throw in some originals specially designed for Brave Exvius. New heroes can be obtained by completing missions or you can choose to improve your existing heroes by leveling them up and upgrading their grade and skills.Aside from the brilliant attack animations, the gameplay is very easy to grasp but if you want to delve into the game's deeper level of combat that requires some extra tactical know-how and strategic planning. There are plenty of dungeons and worlds for you to explore too but the paths aren't always linear - you may find secret routes that hide some extra rewards for the naturally curious. For the PvP-inclined, there are thrilling arena battles that you can dive into as well!
Final Fantasy Brave Exvius may not be anything like the namesake it is based on - it is a lot more casual just so it can cater to mobile gamers, but the game is still a Final Fantasy game through and through. The storyline in this game is a rather nice addition to the overall story and the characters are pretty much still the same.
Grand Chase Reborn
Grand Chase Reborn is a private Grand Chase server which was born to fulfill the need had arisen after the shut down of the official Grand Chase servers. This version of the game is pretty much similar to the original one. Grand Chase Reborn is an anime-inspired, 2.5D side-scrolling action MMO/platformer that may bring to mind other games like MapleStory. Aside from the adorable chibi characters, the game also have some colorful and appealing graphics.To play, you'll first get to select a character and from there you'll then get to choose a class out of the 8 classes available, each of them have their own set of skills and play styles. The character you choose will limit the classes you get, so you might want to try different character-class combos before heading into the game. Gameplay-wise, the game does have a pretty steep learning curve since you'll need to memorize the many ways you can combine various skills to get powerful combos. It also has a nice cooperative campaign for you to go through, if you dislike the idea of encountering a premium player during PvP.
If you really miss playing Grand Chase, you will definitely enjoy Grand Chase Reborn. If not, you'll feel like the advantages that premium players get far outweigh the insane amount of effort you'll put into the game to just be on equal footing as they are. It's a game that cures nostalgia but not exactly a game to play if you don't plan on being a premium player.
