It's sad to see your favourite video game gone

#Game: Paragon

I miss the game characters most of all, they were all so unique with a interesting personality. It sucks that they won't be used for any video game, which is when I thought how awesome it would be if they were in the League universe. Yes I know they probably wouldn't fit completely but that's when the re-design could come in making them fit the League universe visually. But even if they fitted the Universe, there would still be the same thing that Riot doesn't use anything or anyone from a different game. All the new champions they make are their own.

But the thing is Epic Games, didn't just scrap all of the game to be remembered that way. They were awesome enough to create the characters and the maps to be used as assets for Unreal Engine 4, for free. Not all of them are available but they will be added on later this year.

My question for those who are reading this.

Looking at these characters do you see any kind of potential for them to be used in some game?

Sevarog and Khaimera were my dudes in Paragon. If I needed to be a stupidly beefy Nazghul, I could be. If I wanted to be a pubstompy axe wielding madman I could be. But alas, Epic Games has a worse track record than Hi-Rez Studios does and killed it. It could have been a nice side game (Well, was).

Yeah, I miss Paragon too. I was a Sevarog main, and my brother played Grim. It would be really great to see them in League, but I don't imagine it'll happen :(

They have my favorite iteration of a Sun Wukong in any moba.

You really should have mentioned the name of the game somewhere in this post, also how dare u not mention Shinbi; she deserves better.

Ah man, I miss my boy Sevarog, Sion just ain't the same kinda drug dude.

No mention of Shinbi?

I enjoyed Paragon somewhat, but I just couldn't get used to the side stuff you do in a match. It didn't really feel like I was fighting as much as I was trying to go cover everything in the "jungle". Of course I didn't play it all the way through it's time. I played it during open beta iirc.

They fucked Paragon when they dropped the Monolith update. People (myself included) played for the big map and slow pace, but they decided to go the way of every other MOBA and try to turn it into a constant brawl rather than a strategic game about map play.

Moragesh will always be best mom.

Gigantic is another game I absolutely adore and it's being shut down too.

I only saw really early stuff from the game, but from what I remember the common complaints were that the characters were basically "generic guy with sword", "generic big guy", "generic robot" and so on, and that the game basically went in slow-mo. Some of these guys look pretty cool though, and it's always a shame when games close down.

I never got around to playing this, I downloaded it on PS4 but at the time was playing other things, then before I knew it they stopped. Pulling resources from this and even the actual game of Fortnite for their cash grab was odd but made business sense. They've made enough of Fortnite BR now to set them for a while even if it starts crumbling (which a lot of gamers want), alas, kids won't let it.

Revenant looks like High Noon Jhin. :O

I would have played it if it hadn't closed down.

I saw a video where a guy who played since beta said the reason the game died was because they kept fundamentally changing the game design multiple times and alienating the existing players.

They weren't content with the playerbase they had, if they couldn't be a smash hit they obviously didn't want to let the game live as a modest success.

It's sad, but there is some hope. Some Developers in the Paragon Community have gotten together to try and revive the game from scratch.

Gideon's description still makes me laugh. "Witnessed the death of a star, fell in love"
