Anyone playing Paragon? Seems like it should be more popular, and looks way better than Smite. Not a shill thread, actually looking for someone to sell me on it while it downloads.
>worst game in the worst genre
lol no way kid
Havent played since beta release so im not sure how it progressed... but the pacing on the game was entirely too slow.

How so? Only ever played League, HotS, Dota2, and just a few games of Smite.

Isn't that true for most MOBAs?
I played it for a few weeks with some friends. We had a good time. The game incentivizes you to play every day to unlock characters and gain other rewards.
Never could wrap our heads around the item system they use.

It has shitty pokemon types for every champion and it tries to innovate the item system by making you craft decks but it ends up being completely inferior to standard item systems. Shit game.

Only moba that has slow pacing is Dota.
>actual gameplay

Wut, pokemon types? That's discouraging
>>383908902
Honestly this is every other MOBA
>>383909229
I didn't look to much into it because the item system honestly pisses me off to no end, but every time I hovered over a champion it would show like elements or some shit that they had, there was like electric and grass and dark from what I recall seeing the most.

This here is the problem, same thing happened with Super Monday Night Combat. Shooters aren't fun when they're slow paced and most of the time you're shooting at something that isn't other players. MOBA mechanics don't translate well to non-isometric games.

I loved MNC do much. Shame they killed it with the sequel.

>posting two year old gameplay from the alpha build

same

not him but I tried the game about a week ago, and that webm looks pretty spot on
There's a general on /vg/. The game is a lot faster now to the point of some games being quicker than queue times in high elo.

>auto attacking creeps
>specifically the melee creeps first
>fuck last hits
>this far our with no health
>alpha build
>only creeps are around
wtf you should have posted a webm of a guying just running into a wall
>mfw people are still playing top down mobas
>abilities are click and they auto lock or its a skill shot and you only have to consider one axis

the game didn't change much visually a little bit behind but it's a terrible game since you need to increase the speed once you give people freedom of movement and the ability to look up.

Smite is shit but at least it's fast
How does Paragon compare? It seemed kinda slow paced last time I saw it, and the weird card shit looks very pay to win from a first glance.
>>383912625
just play game
>>383912625
Slightly faster but the freedom of movement through jumping and looking around makes the game feel much slower cause you can look anywhere faster and you can move so it has a slight dissonance they tried releasing mobility champions to make up for it but still feels awkward but a friend of mine says that looking up is what smite lacked yet he never played more than 5 games over the games lifespan and was a lolfag(is again even though he sold his accoun to buy OW).

>It seemed kinda slow paced last time I saw it
When was the the last time you saw it? It got a huge speed increase back in December and the new economy system is going to make it even faster.
>the weird card shit looks very pay to win from a first glance
It's literally less pay to win than Smite.
