Paladins: Champions of the Realm

This game is an absolute joke. The characters are all ripped off from other games. There's no balance what so ever. And this game has the worst community I've ever seen in my 20+ years of playing video games. There's zero rules in this game. Meaning even though it's a class based shooter you will commonly run into people who just troll and don't pick the class that's needed leaving your team without that class and putting you in a match that's 10+ minutes of wasted time. And 90% of the community is terrible at the game. And only play it because there's not much of a player base so they know if they que in a 5 man party they're almost guaranteed to win considering this is a team based game. So no matter how much better you are than them as long as they use team work there's very little to no chance of them losing. And that's about all there is to the player base. People who just want to feel like they're good at video games but are really terrible and only win because they're in a party while being matched against 5 solo que players. There's also zero support for this game if you have a problem. And if you try to go on the games forums and leave feedback and you leave suggestions on how o fix the games problems or any kind of negative feedback the moderators on the forums will just quickly delete your comment in hopes nobody sees it and finds out about the problems in the game from you describing them.

Could have taken Overwatch down easy if they cared about this game.

The champions are so much more fun and well done than Overwatch champs. Everything is faster and more fluid which makes battles so much more better. There are upgrades in game and more abilities on each champion.

BUT!

It does not even have Widescreen support.

It does not work properly, crashes my high end PC all the time before every launch. Then it works on next start up, then on the next launch it crashes the PC again. Did every possible fix out there and nothing worked.

Barely anything you can buy with in game earned gold. Almost 99% of the stuff costs real money.

These things made it just unbearable to play. Specially the no widescreen support and the crashes. Many people have these problems and the Developers never care to fix them not even when the game is dying.

You can't even sync you account cross other platforms. Like if you play the game on Epic launcher, you can't sync your data to Steam account.

I am a software engineer, After 500 hrs of this game I want to learn every day more about my profession for don't commit the same errors of this game, Which errors? All, all in this game is broken, I didnt can understand how is possible do too bad, but from somehow they do it, again and again. If exist a prize for the worst software piece Paladins sure will win it. The game is good, but not is enjoyable thanks to all the bugs.

Played this game through the ups and down (OB64) but stayed and the game gets better now less bugs than ever, minor bugs still left. Always flowing with content, exited for the future of the game as well as the lore that I have hope it's in development.

Pros: Awesome game-play strategy Many characters with very in-depth customisation New content always around the corner Evil Mojo always striving to do better though not always hitting the mark

Cons: A very ignorant publisher Many visual bugs, very little to non game-play bugs Simple art-style (though i enjoy his much more than for example photo-realism)

This is one of the worst multiplayer games ever created. It had so much potential when it first came out but every update is the same thing. Just new skins and a new over powered champion. The designers of this game have no sense of balance what so ever. And they're trying to do what almost ever inexperienced game developer does with their game when they. Ant figure out a way to add balance which is just make every character over powered. This game has been put for five years now and none of the glitches and bugs have been fixed. It's amazing this game still has a player base left. And no doubt it wouldn't if it wasn't free. They stole almost every if not every single character in this game from another game or movie. Mostly from blizzard games. I'll list some examples here Ruckus is a goblin from world of warcraft not only does he look exactly like the goblins from Blizzard entertainment's world of warcraft he has a robot just like the goblins from the city Tanaris in WoW he also has down to a T the exact same lore (the goblins in paladins are gold miners just like the goblins from WoW) example 2 Barik he is a dwarf with down to a T the exact same lore as the dwarves from world of warcraft he is a mechanic which is exactly what the dwarves were known for in WoW they even had a giant mechanical city built of iron called Iron forge. Example number three Grohk he is an orc imbued with the power of lightning which in world of warcraft would be an elemental shaman which is exactly what the orcs were most known for being in WoW elemental shamans. To top it off when asked if they took inspiration from blizzards games specifically from Overwatch which they ripped the whole siege game mode in paladins off of they denied it and said their inspiration came from team fortress two. That's just sad the least they could have done is admitted to taking huge inspiration from Blizzard.
