I mean if you’re a casual player paladins could be better for you but competitively, or even as a casual shooter it’s a joke. Massive hitboxes, slow movement makes aiming incredibly ez so all gunplay has a very low skill ceiling and winning games comes down to just ability usage. It’s a lot more moba like in that aspect but without the strategy of a moba.
Apart from that, one of the things that makes overwatch so fun is the physics system which can make for some epic and funny plays like a junk launching Reinheart into the air to pin a pharah. You don’t get that in paladins. Hi rez is kind of a cash grab studio too. They just look at whats popular, make their low effort version of it, and put in a cash shop for constant revenue.
Your opinion. I was a Paladins player since the early closed beta. The game has been on a major downfall since open beta. The developers have the wrong priotities.
Sure, Paladins at its core is a fun game but the character designs and kits have much to be desired. It’s a waifu game. Designs are 90% boring, gameplay is overlapping and and balance is worse than overwatch because again, the developers have the wrong priorities. They pump out champion after champion instead of fixing their spaghetti code of a game and adding significant content like maps and modes.
Do not come at me with the bullsh*t excuse that it’s a free game. Quanity will never be better than Quality. Overwatch is a way more polished and better experience than Paladins could ever achieve of being.
yea i mean it isnt a total “not play” the game thing for me since i do play and enjoy paladins from time to time but if the replay was as good as overwatch i would like it about the same. maybe even more who knows
Still better than “here’s a new hero. They’re a umm… PIRATE yes pirate. They were the captain of a ship and the ship sunk. But it sank in the forgotten forbidden waters of Luna the abyss godess and she gave him powers to help let him live in exchange for his loyalty to her”. Literally made this story up as I was writing and its the kind of lore they would give a Paladins champion. That’s the type of lore they come up with that links with ABSOLUTELY no other champion. Once more:
Just for the sake of doing so. They don’t care about the lore. At least what Blizzard makes up in the lore links to whatever they’ve already made and makes sense instead of being a random creative writing competition backstory like they do with most new Paladins champions.
Both have been tons of fun over the years and are absolutely good games, but with serious flaws. Which, over time, have definitely impacted the experience and could have been addressed by the developers. Yet unfortunately weren’t due to (imo) misguided priorities.
Blizzard at least puts some love and care into the characters they create. Original and all in all lovable and memorable characters. Paladins just couldn’t give two f*cks about what champion they create. They’d rather copy and paste an ability from a previous champion, throw some random lore in there to give the 1 person out there that cares about it and make the character over-sexualized so the r34 artists have a field day.
That’s it. That’s Paladins. Shame that Hi-Rez made this game.
I’d thought someone would disagree with my view lmao. If you compare to the character designs in this game to Paladins. They look natural but Paladins sexualize their characters with big melons and milk bags exposed.
I play both, and with all due respect for paladins and all the fun the game provided me, it’s not even close to be as good as Overwatch. It has some unique heroes that i really enjoy, but most of them (and the majority of the new ones) are just straight up copies of already existing heroes in the game
The games sometimes has some stupid bugs and feel clunky, the maps are cool but are nonwhere close to Overwatch maps. And the most important factor, paladins has an entire role that is focused on flanking and making the game miserable
Hold on! I like playing paladins but will jump back when OW2 comes around. Maybe continue to play both games and jump from time to time.
The only flaws are the servers and some bugs from time to time. The rest is true. But OW has something on its own. Its not to deep as paladins is with the cards, talents and shop but has switching and stable servers
As a fellow Rei main… are you stupid? They ruduced the damage by what? Unter 10% and made her “lets ult for myself” not a good option. Thats good. She is a fast ult charger and a good healer. Her duel potential is still 10/10.
