Paragon vs. Predecessor

[Anti]

Im a bit confused right now I heard that Paragon is Predecessor on steam but now i see both on steam. Both games look the same, most likely play the same, however they have different
developers. Anyone care to explain ?

[SirWheats]

They are different games, epic released the assets from the original paragon and these two games are currently utilizing them

I think predecessor is better.

Why?

[Staleen]

I only tried the previous beta and AFAIK they tried to change original Paragon but stick with original Paragon (without card system).

As for the name, Paragon The Overprime is new name. Netmarble already have permission from Epic Games to use that name. Previously titled Overprime.

While Predecessor I believe created by different developer from Russia? (sorry i forgot) and try to balance between heroes and the gameplay.

My impression after tried both at first beta, Predecessor is way better since it doesnt follow the path of Paragon itself and try to be different.

But maybe this game is almost done since they're entering the final beta. Might try again to see the differences. Downloading now.

Predecessor devs are from UK, not russia xD

The way I see it the main difference comes from the pace of the game. Predecessor has 2 towers in each lane, Overprime has 1. Overprime has a faster pace.

Epic games stopped a game called "Paragon". It stopped because of Fortnite and they didn't care about Paragon anymore. So when they stopped the game they let anybody use their assets from Paragon to make a similar game like Predecessor and Paragon the Overprime. They both competed to make a better game. Personally I liked Predecessor when the first play test came out for. Overprimes first play test was alright but I enjoyed Predecessor more. Overprime final playtest just came out and im now loving more than the Predecessor. They are just different devs trying to make a similar game with the idea of Paragon.

its simple Overprime is hot garbage, a brawler with lanes (pretending to be a moba)thet no one pushes because the meta is build up a couple items then deathball the other team. they have a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ travel mode stupid portals the jungle is to large and of bad design the heros are all broken af the skins are laughable and the colors oversaturated to hide the poor design and its not just the skins the whole games graphics are fuzzy (bet it looks great on a mobile device because tahts what netmarble is known for mobile gacha games) they also took out a tower in every lane and with all these changes trying to make the game play and matches faster they only succeeded in making the matches 45-60 minutes long instead, but thats only if you dont get a bunch of ♥♥♥♥♥♥ on your team that vote to surrender after 20 minutes becuase they arent face rolling the other team right off the bat then you got the problem that with 60% or more of your games some1 on your team wil "Disconect" l( log out so they can sit through very minor time penalty then jump in another game) on top of that the community is ful of elitist ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that complain about new people in free play during a test that all stats will be wiped afterword. also the playerbase is 70% asian 10% na and 10 Euro so good luck with those pings folks

The better option is to wait untill the Early access release of Predecessor (announcement here in a couple days promised to rel EA before end of year) its already done with the phase of testing overpriime is going through and is polished already and sticks to a moba style of gameplay and several developers from AAA studios Predecessor is the clear choice for true Paragon fans ( despite overprime acquiring the name to put in their title to try and trick old school fans of the game into playing)

The main problem with Pred - a small angry community, that acts like an insane sect. If you like Overprime or Legacy - you will be insulted and bullied by angry crowd. Even if you adore Pred. You MUST to like only Pred, nothing more. That's disgusting! Pred fanbase is ugly and non-tolerance to a people with an other opinions or tastes.

Even if you have some constructive critic (really love the game and want to improve it) YOU will be punished. BeCaUsE dEvS kNowS BEtTeR aNd ThEY HaVe some oG DveLOpeR, SuTt uP!

P.S. Reddit groups are the worst (Pred and sadly OG Paragon). And if you'll check their discord - it's dead on water, too.

Smite is better trust me.

More accurately the Pred devs are from all over the world. The two original devs (founders of omeda) are from Canada and the EU. Then one from the UK joined, and now they have hired a bunch from all over, including the original Paragon creative director, from before the game fell apart.

I don't get in on the "this one vs this one" debates, but looking at them both from a distance, Predecessor seems to have the better cast behind the scenes, and is focusing more on the longterm to put out a high quality produce expected from a AAA company. (even though they are technically an indie company). My money is on them longterm, but at the end of the day, I will play both of them when they are finished just to see, and wont play either of them if they arent up to standard.

Small? lmao ok kid thats why their discord alone is 5x (never less than 10k ppl on pred discord at any given time) the size of op ...the problem is you have toxic ♥♥♥♥ stains in the overprime community that like to troll and start ♥♥♥♥

I only see fanboy and do not respond with criteria.

Everyone has their own thing, Predecessor is aimed at the most conservative players, Overprime is innovation.

Now, with this new Over test, it is seen that the game is well optimized, the map changed, true, but it is not bad as they say above.

Have they forgotten that Paragon has already implemented a form of transfer from one side of the map to the other? Over did it too, and it's very successful, it gives more dynamism to the game.

Remember that Paragon died for not having a season pass, for not having good management of his store and to that we add that they left him aside for Fornite.

In short, each one has their own style, it is true that Over abuses the excesses of flashes, that will have to be fixed since after a while it bothers the eye a lot.

In the end, the game that prevails will only do so by the number of active players, simple as that.

Cheers

Another thing, the toxic ones are in both games, the same ones that were in the Fault are in Predecessor and Overprime,

Playing Fault and now Overprime I have seen some toxics that I come across.
