Welcome to my introductory video guide to Predecessor (also a review), a 5v5 competitive MOBA in open beta which attempts to bring back Epic Games' old dead game Paragon back to life. Part third person hero shooter and part action game, predecessor is a fun fast paced team game with close fights, hero builds through different item choices, and an emphasis on verticality in the map making for a unique experience. Similar to games like Smite, League of Legends, and Dota2.

Great video! My hopes are pretty high for predecessor, honestly, with the exception of the heroes and their abilities, Predecessor is almost a completely different game than old paragon. Map, items, mechanics, alot of those things work differently now. Paragon also suffered from some meddling when tencent bought enough stock to have a say-so in the game's development. All and all, I really hope Predecessor will eventually be able to stand on its own

This game is what smite 2 should have been. I am a “smite 2 founder” and it was incredibly lackluster. Now I know it’s ONLY an Alpha, but let’s be real, do you think Hi-Rez will change much, from now til July 28? Hope predecessor lives, they need to add more heroes, skins and battle-passes. That will help its life, longevity, and replay ability of the game.

At 13:06 you can find how far you are from leveling up by looking at your level in the victory/defeat post-game pop-up. It tells you how much amber you got, what level your character is, and what level your account is. All right there. The level progress bar is wrapped around the account level diamond.

Paragon was amazing up until the point they changed the game dramatically, mostly the card system. This happened around the time Fortnite was made. Soon after the game got shut down but a lot of people remember the good old Legacy map days of Paragon. Predecessor is not much different which is why I can see most paragon fans coming to predecessor myself included. They're doing a good job with this one

Paragon died because they changed the map (nobody ever likes it when there's one map and they get rid of it) and as if that wasn't bad enough they overhauled the game to the point where existing users had to relearn big chunks of it. Very annoying. I loved it back then and I love Predecessor. Sadly, the issue of people disconnecting, ruins the entire experience, likewise, resigning just because you died or because your team is one tower down is just soul destroying. Personally, I think the games duration is too long. I don't mind it but sometimes you are so far behind that it's going to take a miracle to overturn the deficit and whilst those epic come backs do happen from time to time, it usually feels like you were 8-0 down in a FIFA match with 40 minutes of misery in front of you. Parts of the game are just way too complicated too. The shop system, mixed with a bunch of items and builds for characters is just too big a barrier of entry for most people. Sure, you can leave it on auto-build but we all know instinctively that pro players aren't doing that. Some of the controls are way too clunky as well, like needing to confirm attacks. There's a lot of design issues that I'd love to fix.

I think fortnite's success was also a huge factor for why development on paragon eventually stopped, but yeah, I've learned of a few things that paragon did completely different from predecessor (item/card system and the maps like you said) that I could totally see having had a negative effect on the community at the time! It reminds me of what happened to H1Z1 at around the same time!

If 7 of my 8 abandoned it, I can only imagine that happened to the masses. Hopefully these guys learn from that... and what we've seen with the likes of Warzone where the hatred for Caldera was real but now we have tons of maps in rotation.
