Is this game actually good or just hyped up because it's a valve game?
The new mix of moba and fps elements is handled really well. You've got to be good at shooting and building your character over time, which leaves a shitload of space for interesting gameplay. Positioning, planning, adapting, experimenting, it's all here and the game is early beta. There were puzzle games before Portal, and there were shooters before this game. Deadlock is extremely well made like portal so far, and I'm excited to see where it goes.
The game does what its trying to do excellently, and knowing Valve it'll continue to improve until release. If you like MOBAs and you like good shooter mechanics, you'll most likely enjoy this game.
It's just a moba but ~~first~~ 3rd person, it's no TF2 that's for sure...
Oh, an FPS, groundbreaking. Hard pass.
