What feels more like Paragon?
This or Predecessor? Also anyone knows if heroes are going to be paywalled in each game?

This is no like one OG Paragon. There are two: Paragon Agora (2016) and Paragon Monolith (2016-2018)
All you need is know:
- Agora was big, beautiful and, probably, unpolished.
- Monolith was small, ugly and unpolished too.

Pred is definitely more polished version of Monolith. It makes things, that Epic screwed up, are much better.
OP is came with Agollth - a beautiful map between Agora and Monolith. It keep Agora mechanics and introduce new features.

And yes you should pay for Pred, Op will be F2P. Don't know about paid heroes.

in my opinion overprime is better than predecessor because predecessor is more similar to paragon but this game is very laggy and not good. Overprime is very good and not laggy

Overprime what I believe is free to play. This is 10 bucks but will be free eventually.

So far Predessessor is more Legacy Paragon - the stats based numbers, boring item store and less action gameplay.

Overprime LOOKS like it's more New Dawn Paragon - more action / combat brawler based with dynamic abilities, like escapes, dodges, stuns. I LOVED New Dawn Paragon witht he card system, some people hated it. Looks like these two are going to be two different niches and it's going to depend on what Paragon version you liked.

Personally Im liking the look of overprime but we will see. For me Predessessor is a serious let down.

Predecessor is a let down for you because its more MOBA-ish? Or its just not exactly THE Paragon version for you? Can you please elaborate a bit more?

After watching a lot of overprime it has exactly what I wanted from a new Paragon, and didn't get from Predessesor. Im not trying to dunk on Pred, it's just not the Paragon I wanted. I think they BOTH can carve a niche for themselves. It is polished, but it is more reliant on stats/items and numbers versus the New Dawn Paragon of abilities, skills and twitch gameplay. Granted I havent played Overprime yet, but watched a clip of my girl Serath using her fly and escape abilities, basically exactly from Paragon. It's what I wanted.

Pred is basically DOTA in 3rd person view, and that is totally fine. It's just not what I personally wanted from a Paragon clone and Im a bit dissapointed with it. Like I said I think both of these can survive, because they cater to the two types of Paragon players, the ones who loved Legacy and the item store, and the others who loved New Dawn and the card mechanics.

So polished that Overprime runs 270Fps and Pre only 60 on same machine. You can see who has good and experienced developers. High end PC maybe don’t have problems either Predecessor but Mid Budget will get in trouble. Only the use of Unreal Engine 5 dosnt mean that it’s better then UE 4 if you don’t have enough experience with this things.

there are realy bad input lags in predecesspr on top of asyncron animation compared to registration of hits.... you can feel it the most when trying to get those last hits or minions getting damage from other minions even the animation hasn't played yet.
There just isn't any rubberbanding and therefor you might think there are no lags (even the devs said there are and they're working on it.... with the excuse it's early access).
