I completely forgot this game existed
Question is if there are now 5,4 mio registered players, how many unregistered are there?
We may never know…
Good luck with that Epic Games, even though mobas aren’t my cup of hot earl grey.
aren’t mine as well, but thing is about Paragon it’s the MOBA that people might actually like, because it’s NOT like any other MOBA.
Sounds par the course for a simple F2P game. It had better climb in time and grow to LoL levels, or it’s done as dinner in the moba side of things, even Heroes is still struggling.
I registered, downloaded the launcher and never installed it. I just want to try it out but nothing more.
