Over 10 since CS:GO debutted. Went through a huge update where they even changed the engine, they changed the name of the game after that and it still holding players numbers that are pretty closet to their peak. Same with DOTA 2 (except in that case the name is the same one, and it is less close to that peak). Yeah, there are a few more examples of multiplayer games in similar situation, but my point is that there is always a reason why games lose players, and it is never "just time". If XDefiant dies now, it will be because updates didn't offer the changes people were looking for, or didn't add enough things to make the game feel "fresh" for a much longer time.

The worst part in my opinion is you can tell the developers, Evil Mojo, really care about making Paladins work. But because of Hi-Rez’s ABYSMAL management and treatment of the IP, it’s becoming a chore rather than a passion project for them. Updates have significantly slowed down and new character, map, and mode additions are far from what they used to be. It’s sad because I used to love this game’s vibe back in 2018 and would get my friends into it.

Since a couple of months everything started to look better. Updates are more often, they did tremendous job with balace and introduced balance fixes that come more often, they stopped pumping new stupid champs like crazy and focused on balacing and refining current ones. The game looks better and better every patch. Unfortunatelly they had a giant servers problem so. The game was growing every month and now collapsed by 50% once more. That being said, every single new brilliant hero shooter game died and Paladins prevails till this day.

Love the videos keep it up

I started playing again after a year and it‘s a great game

And here I was thinking of getting back into the game. I also heard the standalone launcher was discontinued in favor of Steam-only, and apparently they implemented kernel-level anticheat.

i played this game everyday when i was around 13-14.i loved the small community, the unique characters and just the feel of the game. but then they decided to change the card building system and made the game pay to win for a while, which obviously angered most of its fanbase. they brought back the older deck building systems but decided to focus only on skins instead of fixing the MANY bugs in the game, and this was it for me. im gonna be 21 soon and its just sad to watch my fav childhood game turn to this mess..

Here I am still playing 😭😭

Still one of my favorite games sadly I run into to many toxic people whenever I try to get back into it causing me to always leave again quickly I would love to see this game come back though

The 2 newest heroes are literally just skins of previous heroes that were spun off with recycled assets because their art lead, Thunderbrush left the company. It’s running on fumes by now.

Used to play Paladins a few years back; what killed my interest was the constant bugs and game crashes I kept encountering.

They invested into realm royale reforged dko and rogue company instead of paladins and you can see that rr died for a second time dko died and rogue company died

Jumped back in since they sunsetted the Switch version. I will say its nice being back on Steam. I was able to easily recover my account and its a daily play for me since there are over 50 champions its easier than ever to pick one you like during matches.

This definitely won’t happen with Marvel Rivals 😂

holly bugs are they many BUGS and people still play pure chads on the grey screen

Damn i missed this game. I used to play both OW and Paladins at the same time. But to me, it fell off when they changed their game system too many times and that Battle Royale thing for some reason.

That is interesting since yes, last time I played Paladins was two years ago and decided that it just wasn't my game but from what i've heard and seen here and there I thought that its in the best spot out of the three. And now I think it's merely scoring second place in dying-of-a-game speed. My thing in multiplayer games is supporting and healing. I love to do it and I need a place for it. After about ten years I burned out in TF2, after 200 hours I didn't want to play Paladins anymore and OW I played since 2017 and I really grew to hate it and Blizz as well but I got so used to it and its ''quirks'' plus its the slowest dying out of the three I think I have picked my poison and will stay until some new class shooter comes out I guess because I have no alternative left. I Sometimes wish for some singleplayer game where I can be support that would be great. I know I can cast ''healing hands'' in Skyrim on my companion but that is a sad substitute and gets me down mood wise. Just aint the same. I just want to help and have fun doing it.

Paladins really does deserve better. It has better hero’s than overwatch 100%

Honestly it’s still kinda fortunate that pallies is still alive to this day, after so many devs getting cut to move to other games and it’s been running on a skeleton crew for over a year now it’s still pretty ok!!

One thing I have learned throughout the years of playing Hi-Rez associated games was: Don't even bother because we all know what this means. They fumbled GA, DKO, Rogue Company and now also Paladins. All fun and unique games with INSANE POTENTIAL. I've been one of the very first people to play Paladins before it was even officially released and they fumbled such an awesome game. If Paladins 2 ever comes out, I'll play it but only if another dev team is part of it. This was one of the best and most enjoyable games I've ever played. Insane how type of a game like Paladins still has insane eSport potential nowadays.

Hirez always has a passion that other games lack. It's this double A feelings instead of the corpo triple A.

U can say all you want they didnt copy ow, but the fact is that in the beta thencgaracters started to look more like the ow characters overtime

When it came out the game was in-fucking-sane... The e-sport scene was massive for it , the casters were hype, the casual and ranked matches were good, yes balance issues and bugs but a bright future ..and the cosmetic packs were berable, sales were good, than power creep started to happen new heroes started coming out more than balance patches or content for old heroes.. the skins got shat on and locked into chests that are overpriced and so on.

HI Rez are the kings of great ideas that are terribly executed.

interesting video learned alot

what ended up making me walk away was how extreme the casual play became, it ended up becoming a mini competitive outside of ranked, which wasnt all that bad on its own as botplay existed and you can play against anywhere between easy to decently challenging bots as a real player team. Which wasnt the nail in the coffin, the nail for me was what they did to my main skye. Skye for people who dont know is a flank class damage dealer with stealth abilities. She has undergone multiple reworks but ultimately she remained mostly the same with some differences in appearance. The most recent and head scratching change was to one of her talents, She had a talent where so long as you could get the final blow on an enemy, it reset your cooldowns and healed you for 900, with a max health of 1900 without any health boosting cards thats pretty good, but it took skill to execute for the most part. As you needed one specific thing, THE CREDIT FOR A KILL. if your aim was too bad or the enemy escaped, or even better your teamate cleaned them up, you didnt get the talent trigger. That and cauterize countered the healing heavily(which if you werent running it kinda was a bad idea since it makes fighting enemies harder without it) and the item in the shop midmatch taht you can get round one that lets you see invisible enemies further away. Gave her a bit of a skill ceiling, honestly she was fine where she was. Granted one of the other talents needed a bit of a nerf(the poison spam one, if you know you know). but they didnt touch that, they left it. instead they removed said above talent. for a completely useless and bad talent replacement. Now i can play a bunch of different characters(i play a really strong healing and damage pip, a good varrik, and i can play a majority of the healers and a few of the tanks really well. But i played as Skye since the beta, i fell in love with her character, her looks(ironic i know), and her gameplay style focused on quick hit and runs to pick off enemies on or near the point and vanishing into the map to repeat. to the point where so long as no one was watching the flank i could deal some damage and keep them off the point, and even if they did. i had a few bombs to fix that every match. But what they finally did as a nerf(as she was nerfed and reworked multiple times, some for good reason, others for a strange reason). I walked away from the game, what they did to her could happen to any of the legacy and new champions. Sorry for the long rant, but this is a bit of a sore spot.

But I think the one think Paladins beats Overwatch in is user friendliness. It’s a game made for fun and simplicity over strategy. Hey man. Playing a healer in a DPS role is healing.

I could've sworn that "Play Of The Game" and hero swapping did wonders for Overwatch, despite the latter ending up as a major problem in Overwatch 2. As something as unbalanced as Paladins with it's huge roster of champions, I think hero swapping would've worked a lot better there than in Overwatch.

This was one of my go to games on switch. Just because overwatch was running so bad on the console. I think the maps were kinda cool and the character variety was top notch. Not sure about the P2W mechanics because I'm a casual when it comes to gaming on switch

For me was thw following: -terrible matchmaking -smurfs and hackers everywhere -cheap and unbalanced new heroes (or underwhelming) -too many bugs -stale patch notes - The game has a ton of "What to dos" but doesn't get support like before.

There is a choice between sniper rifles and smgs, and you can only carry one of them at a time. Beside poison mines there is a choice between stat steroid, decoys, cleanse, a dozen of different bombs and mines, player-only wallhacks, all occupying one ability slot. And other than team wide wallhacks recon can choose a large bomb.

Didn't Paladins exist before Overwatch? But because Blizzard is a Triple A company High Rez couldn't develop Paladins fast enough? Doesn't that make Overwatch a clone technically? Edit: Your vid answered my own questions.

And his vid is hilariously wrong since Overwatch was originalyl Project Titan, so it was in development for FAR longer than Paladins.

First Overwatch trailer doesn't show Reinhardt's shield being a toggle instead of a single-use ability on a long cooldown. Fast forward a year later and Fernando has a shield that is a single-use ability on a long cooldown. It doesn't get more shameless than that.

@@AzureRoxe Titan was a PvE only MMO, and they never really showed what the game was like, plus Global Agenda is even older than Titan, Global Agenda started development in 2004 and came out in 2009 while Titan was still in its early stages of development in 2012 when it was cancelled.

Its extremely new player unfriendly….the matchmaking is just broken ….its a fun game otherwise

Play of the game and kill cams should come back

add it to the list helvian

Only paladins2 could give paladins another shot, i was a hardcore paladins player back in 2019 but then moved on from fps games completely

1. Never bothered to properly world build, with some characters making literally no sense in the paladins universe 2. Poor marketing (kind of ties with the first reason) 3. Never was properly polished and if anything has downgraded in some areas 4. Failed to build a competitive scene with people that take the game serious

I've started playing paladins more. OW1 was my game i put hours upon hours into. OW2 has gone downhill. Every season just gets progressively worse. Plus, Vivian is the equivalent of Ashe. Im still having fun.

Paladins being announced a year later is all you need to know about who copied whom. Fernando is literally just a misinterpretation of Reinhardt's abilities from the first Overwatch trailer - like the shield being on cooldown after use because the Overwatch trailer didn't show you could open and close it as much as you wanted. I still liked the game, and it was miles better than OW1 gameplay-wise. Ended up playing it instead. But OW2 simply has it beat, and now has the same casual accessibility too on top of the polish and the budget, so there's no hope for recovery.

Actually that's a mistake Paladins was actually announced in 2012 under the name Global Agenda 2, then they changed the name a thousand times (one of its names was Auron, which is the one mentioned in the video), but in the end the game was delayed so much that in the end they changed the entire artistic style of the game and reannounced it as Paladins in 2015 and it wasn't even a year, it was like 6 months.
