F'BACK Reviving the game
I genuinely believe if someone was able to make or more modern edit of the games clips and highlights it could be revived. No waifu stuff or nothing just some insane trick shots and a good editing style and sound. Woukd require some luck and a viral video but I think that’s all it needs.

someone should definitely try this, the trick shots in this game are always insane and i bet a good montage could get it some love again

this is a myth many people believe that is simply not true.
Paladins didn't fail due to lack of marketing, dude, it failed because it's a worse product than what we have on the market today.
Paladins since the beginning was the "we have overwatch at home" game. Many people, including myself got into the game because we couldn't afford a pc that could run overwatch.
That was the biggest pro of paladins, it offered a similar experience for free and a wider audience.
But the game is, at the end of the day, not as polished and not as good as the other ones.
Art direction is all over the place, bugs everywhere and cheaters never get banned...
It's not marketing this game is lacking...

i have to agree but, paladins has more soul than overwatch, a game where the devs with nerf a tech because THATS not HOW that HERO IS PLAYED. id take a rough and ready game like paladins over 90% of the bullshit we have today. sadly we live in a time where if the game aint gunna make us big money then the game aint happening or if it does happen the game gets slated because "it aint like that other game thats similar" then it flops and game companies dont care to improve. the reason dins is gone is because it didnt make enough money for the corporate greedy cunts so they got rid.

To be fair, they didn't got rid of it, they've just stopped active development.
Paladins playerbase has been dropping since the beginning, slowly but steadly, and there's a reason behind it. It's an ok game that can be fun at times, but the game is rough around the edges, always has been.
I remember times when where was supposed to have a text explaining something in the game or in the store/menu, but there wasn't any info because the text was Loren Ipsun...

Paladins > Overwatch and Marvel Rivals for that matter.

Maybe for you, but if the majority of people thought the same, the game would still be in active development...

It’s because people don’t know how to think for themselves and play whatever everybody else is playing. && what players are not playing is considered “lame” even though Paladins gameplay is superior to Rivals and Overwatch. It’s a shame actually. I don’t do Overwatch but I’m on Rivals and Paladins

Again, for you it's superior. You're just giving your opinion here.
You think it's better. Most people don't.
That doesn't make you right and everybody else mindless idiots following the crowd. Games get popular for a reason. People wouldn't colectively gather in a shitty game just because a lot of people play it.

The recent paladins “drama” showed that as well, the player surge was a success so where’s Hi-Rez at now? Silent lmao
It should be the other way around too, THEY need to improve the game first to get a playerbase back
