Most Russulas also get paler with age.. so cap color alone isn't always the best indicator of species

I think those are different species. First one is probably Russula cyanoxantha. Paler one could be Russula cremoricolor or even R. emetica but I am not sure.

I usually found one with dark red (almost purple) and the one that's paler. Is that the difference?

Different species in Russula genus.
