We know very little about it at this point. It doesn’t reek of anything, seems like you’re just making assumptions based on very little information.
Comment on New Details on Valve's New Game 'Deadlock' - Insider Gaming
Akasazh@feddit.nl 6 months agoPouring resources does not equate quality, there’s no new idea here. They try a overwatch like game when their IP contains the most successful hero shooter out there.
really popular with the MOBA crowd
They tend to play non shooter mobas, you know, like dota. Why try to compete with your own ip?
It reeks of poor design choice, jus like artifact, and no amount of money will fix that.

The idea is not very exciting. I’m hoping to be proved wrong, I really am.

I keep seeing everyone comparing this to overwatch, how is this like overwatch at all? Just because you pick a character and they have unique abilities?
I’ve been playing dota for over a decade and couldn’t get into any other moba I’ve ever tried, but I think this sounds like it could be fun and I’d give it a chance at least.

I loved that game. If Valve wants to take a crack at making Super Monday Night Combat but done well I’m here for it, and I think they could pull it off.

Ok you’ve got me with Monday night combat, I hope to be proven wrong tbh, it’s a sliver of hope and I won’t join the bandwagon.
