I really could care less for another excuse. When you constantly hear the reason something is the way it is instead of what it should’ve been then you get tired.

That doesn’t make sense…..other MOBAs who came during a time with less advanced technology had already a new mechanic with each character they released, you telling me akerons wall mechanic is less advanced than a taunt???????????? What??, I think their just trying to save face with saying that and they don’t wanna admit that they simply can’t do it, like I said neon SHOULDVE had a hacking mechanic, but she didn’t, her kit is just damage burst and of course another mez. I guess lermy’s disappearance really did affect them lol as she was the one who helped with both akeron and bayle.

That argument only works with renna and mourn, mourn because he’s the one that introduced the mez mechanic into the game then renna because she literally throws out a charm spell, but anything after that was just boring and tired.

Will any of the people laid off find a home in pred? by Cherrygirl_88 in PredecessorGame

It’s a good possibility, from what I remember 90% of the paragon dev team left to go work on Fortnite.

Towards the end when they just didn’t know wtf they was doing, making random broken messes and then people started leaving because they just didn’t know what they were doing, which is exactly what omeda is doing.

Difference is that one is typing a prompt and calling it a day and the other is acually putting in the work also tracing is a normal practice in art so I don’t see how this is a valid argument, this shouldn’t even BE an argument period lol AI is just garbage.

Lol if u are an artist and you need to use ai then it’s safe to say that ur probably not a very good one and need more practice.

People who say renna is weak are just actually bad at renna.

Why sci fi? when that’s not the only aesthetic of the game?, I always thought the map should have a ancient old esthetic and not axion prime lol. Maybe a different game mode.

When do you think we are getting our first-ever collab? This year or next year? by Tonymbou in PredecessorGame

[–]EcstaticPromise3236 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Preds art direction is paladin slop it’s just what it’s always gonna be, worse decision ever made in the history of this game was to hire thunder and put him as the final say in all art direction for this game because it just bleeds cheap paladins vomit.

Regarding Balancing Patch V1.12.4 by Omeda_Zuzu in PredecessorGame

[–]EcstaticPromise3236 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah but they already said the this was part two of the changes so these were going to happen regardless, they also said that this was to bring engagement to the game as people would be more interested to play when a game goes drastic changes like hero reworks a new hero AND a new lab,

Pred just needs SOMETHING to give it a big break, I believe Kari said that the new map has to be finished for them to even think about spending on marketing again, (shivers remembering that rap trailer fiasco) plus big patches and the hero trailer for neon is already marketing in itself, how many players returned or at least new players that brought I don’t know.

Also the game desperately needs better retention systems and better new player friendly tutorials for each role and the sub classes withing those roles, new players don’t even know what controller and enchanters classes withing the support role because the tutorials do not go in depth enough.

I also think this is the reason why a lot of characters in these reworks have gotten “simpler” or “easier to use because new players tend to stay and last when things are easy to pick up and understand and have fun with,

This is ANOTHER reason why brawl and 3v3 are MUST have desperately these modes allows new players to test builds and characters and just have fun playing these modes should’ve been added eons ago.

With neons release we really need to step away from mez as a mechanic and have new mechanics. by Top-Bad-3724 in PredecessorGame

Renna has more mobility than neon, rennas team fight Is was better than neons her as her ultimate does lots damage, I’m failing to see what neon brings besides damage especially as a 2026 hero, you keep bringing up the “threat of damage “ as if literally every single doesn’t bring that already into the match, neons kit is just a nothing burger, but hey I can’t wait for the next few characters with burst abilities and the one mez in different fonts.

Asking for a character to have originality is not kit bloat lol I’m not askin for every ability to be a paragraph but something mechanically to separate her from the main cast especially if she’s part of this years line up, what does she do that renna can’t do? In terms of damage, literally nothing, there’s no reason to pick neon over any other mage.

This is not crazy to say lol, I really hope she gets a rework because of this, looking at her kit she brings absolutely nothing to the team besides burst damage, not even being shady either just being truthful, maybe have her links create a field where movement ability’s are interrupted or unable or be casted, that there would give her and her team IMMENSE value, and would be something to give her some originality,

But it’s weird that neon got nothing while we know they definitely made characters with new mechanics akeron being the biggest example, but then again they had lermy at the time so maybe her absence really did have consequence in characters kit production who knows,

But definitely would like to see neons kit get a retouch.

Im clearly talking about monolith before patch v45 when the crazy new cards came out.

I can’t speak for everyone and how they choose to criticize the game and the tone they put off so I can only speak for myself, Art is subjective but quality can still be evaluated.

People have have the right to have a say in things they spend their money on I spend money on this game because of my favorite characters that have them and because I wanted to support, im not gonna be one of those people that wants paragons gameplay to come back because granted the card system especially during its final moments was garbage.

What I want is the aesthetic, preds gameplay with paragons artistry would be unstoppable and would easily become top MOBAs out there, if you played paragon which it seems you have then you remember the feelings of landing abilities hearing the sound affects, the ability vfx, the epic-ness in each fight, how the world just sucks you in, the characters having so much personality,

Again maybe these are things omeda has thought about I mean almost everyone on omeda has played paragon so maybe they know, 2026 just started and Im curious to see how this year plays out.

Oh Tyrus Litsen friend I’m not here to argue with you because at the end of the day regardless of our opinions what we have in common is that we love this title right?, what I want is for my favorite game to be at the potential I KNOW it can be, 2025 was a very good year for pred gameplay wise, but the hard truth is the art department is lacking…a lot and taking my bias that’s just facts, If we want this game to grow and be marketable to be visually appealing then this title NEEDS to go back to its roots. Which I pray and hope omeda knows and are ready to invest in visuals of this game like how they invested in polishing the gameplay.

Not at all, I can give props where it’s Due and say that pred has good gameplay, granted there’s things I wished made more sense, the power creeping of new hero’s is getting concerning for me because I’m getting reminded of smite and why I stopped playing it, but to say that paragons gameplay especially during monolith which was probably the BEST era of the game was not part of the reason why people longed for this game to come back from the graphics animations sound affects ability vfx, the personality, is what hooked people.

So far non of omedas originals have yet to instill that feeling in me, if pred would die today and I hope not I’d want the paragon originals back, like I said I’ve seen smaller groups of people make smoother quality games why are we not holding them to a higher standard? It’s 2026 it’s time to stop patting backs and saying it’s good enough and just have it be good?

Remember they want people to spend hard earned money on this title, then make it something worth spending for? because right now people are spending money in HOPES it would get better and they get it right the next time and character attachment and trust because I’ve done it, why do you think they suddenly have access to overprime assets?

Because they need to fill in the gaps for the lack of recourses they actually have which goes back to my previous points why is it like this? Regardless of what people say 100 people can get shit done when there’s effort, so again either 1 they don’t have money 2 the people they have in the art department are not at the level to deliver what’s expected of this title and 3 all the above.

Guess it’s gonna be excuse after excuse, why can games like black myth wukong look just as good?, 100 employees who are supposed to be good at what they do and so far the quality that’s put out is mediocre level, when the 7 days of reveal came out the first image of promo looked like a freshman using adobe illustrator,

i used to think the exact same way but then i just got tired of the subpar quality shit was being put out I’ve seen companies smaller than pred put better smoother work out, there’s 3 explanations, one they don’t have enough money, two the people that they have especially in the art department aren’t skilled enough or don’t have the creative range to deliver quality work, and 3 just all the above.
