With the whole Paladins now having been laid off, this would be an amazing way of preserving this unique hero shooter for the future. Truly fun shooter with unique customization mechanics and a big variety of champions and maps that would truly be a big loss.

I love shooters, and I think there is none like Paladins, with a variety of maps, champions and customization, it's a shame that they have stopped its development, it would be great to be able to keep it.
This game has amazing colorfull character roster, incredible tenacity, revolutionary unique mechanics for the hero shooter genre. It is incredibly fun game which made me play the game for 5+ years and had really awesome unique skins that made me buy each and every one of them 'cuz every one of them felt like different character instead... You won't find anything like Paladins... It is just a victim of bad management, would've been destroyed the Overwatch if the management is not terrible... Suffered from bugs, bad decisions and lack of communication... Hi Rez made it, made it great, ruined in the childhood and didn't let it grow it's potential and now throwing it to trashcan... This game needs to be must preserved... My best memory of the game you ask... I met my current best friend in this game... We made ourselves a name, become secret justice for the game, let the devs know whats going on, worked behind the curtains to pluck the weeds etc... We were notorious in the game, carry duo... Bane of trolls, racist busters etc... We uncovered so many top player secret cheaters, made some of them banned, truly shocked the community etc... Even the community was incredibly toxic to us, we didn't cared... Never felt like anyone owns us anything 'cuz all we wanted was a good enviroment for us and for the people like us... That is how special this game for us... This game is worth fighting for... So go for it! Fight for it's preservation again! Sign Out Almalexion (a.k.a GraphicWolf) the oldest player in Paladins...

Actually fun Hero Shooter that got shadowed by the massive escale of OverWatch and Hi-Rez's incompetency. it deserved better to be honest. I put over 1.5 thousand hours in the game already. Maeve best grill.
Paladins is a pretty unique hero shooter in that it allows for a degree of gameplay customization through talents modifying the mechanics of certain abilities, cards adding passive bonuses, and items you can buy during match. It also has a nice cast of characters, and is overall one of the most fun games in its niche.
First game I ran on my pentinum 4 (from poor country) and ancient graphic card. Enjoyed it till the dreaded OB64 and then came back during covid and enjoyed it with new people during lockdown time. Wish this game is able to be maintained by the community even after official support ends this year.
Unique strategic touch on the hero segement . Fnny voiclines. Depth through cards and talents Learning about each champion and reaching level 50 oens a lot of different playstyles. Quite the stress releif.
finally found a game me and my brother like playing together, please save paladins
Easily the best hero shooter I've played. It's easy to learn, difficult to master, has great character designs, an impressive amounts of voice line commands for quick strategizing if you lack a mic, and is an all round fun time with a huge amount of diversity in builds and play style. I've never played any game quite like it, and have spend well 1300+ hours having a great time. For the low cost of free dollars, it's a great time.

I've spent endless hours playing with friends and it's always a blast. The mix of strategy and action makes it so fun (and challenging)!! Let this game NEVER die.

Dune II: The Building of a Dynasty
Dune II: The Building of a DynastyDune II is often considered the first mainstream modern real-time strategy game and established many conventions of the genre. Even though set in Frank Herbert's famous Dune universe, the game is only loosely connected to the plot of any of the books or the films based from them. Controlling either of the three Houses, the player must fight a number of battles against the other Houses. In the early levels, the goal is simply to earn a certain number of credits, while in the later missions, all enemies must be destroyed. The single resource in the game is the Spice, which must be collected by harvesters. The spice is converted to credits in a refinery, which are then spent to construct additional buildings and units. There are two terrain types: buildings can only be constructed on stone, while the Spice is only found on sand. However, units moving on sand attract the large sandworms of Dune, who are virtually indestructible and can swallow even large units whole. As levels progress, new and more advanced buildings and units are made available, including structures like a radar station, a repair facility or defense turrets and, for units, various ground troops, light vehicles and tanks. Each House can construct one unique special unit, and, after building a palace improvement, can unleash a unique palace effect.
