Last Man Standing vs Paladins
Last Man Standing
Last Man Standing is a battle royale game that is similar to PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) in many ways, including graphically and gameplay-wise, but you often have to remind yourself that being a free-to-play version, this game does have its own set of flaws. For starters, although the map in this game is as vast as PUBG's, there are no vehicles in Last Man Standing, forcing you to travel large distances on foot. There isn't any bullet tracers or obvious muzzle flashes in this game either so it can be quite difficult for you to pin-point from where you are being shot at.Some players also report having frame rate drops which may indicate poor game optimization and well, since there isn't any anti-cheat in the game, you will have to content with having some cheaters in the game (still less than 50% of the time though). Matchmaking takes quite some time as well since the player base in this game is obviously a lot less than PUBG or even Fortnite Battle Royale.
That said, the game has some redeeming qualities aside from being free-to-play, such as having a fun and sometimes intense and competitive gameplay; insanely in-depth character customizations where you can earn more outfits and clothes by playing; a nice arsenal of weapons that you can find and use, including the very useful riot shield-like barriers; multiple game modes (solo, duo and team-based), and more.
So, Last Man Standing is a pretty decent alternative - the free-to-play sort - if you're looking to play a game that's more similar to PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds rather than the more cartoonish-looking Fortnite Battle Royale. Granted that this game isn't at all perfect and that apparently the devs won't be patching this game up anytime soon, this is the best you'll probably get!
Paladins
Paladins is a breakout MMO hero shooter game that offers a smooth mix of objective-based matches and arcade-styled, first-person shooting. In addition to an amazing lineup of champions of varying skills and abilities to play as, the game also incorporates a unique card-based loadout system where you'll need to adapt to the random cards that you get as you play. The matches themselves are team-oriented and fast-paced as well. Best yet, the game is going to launch its new battle royale game mode soon, which guarantees to put a twist to the conventional genre.Paladins: Champions of the Realm is a great alternative to games like Team Fortress 2, Dirty Bomb and Overwatch. Both competitive and casual players will definitely enjoy this game!
