Deadlock is…fine. I’m not really sure what sets it apart currently.
That people seem to be playing it because they like it, instead of despite hating it?
For Now
I'm one of those people playing it and yeah I'll give it that. But "I don't hate it" isn't enough for me and that's where I'm at currently lol
I genuinely love it. It's like water to my thirst after being unable to play Battleborn for the years since it shut down.
I'm sad every time the matchmaking closes and It's time to end playing
Deadlock is probably the most promising game of the year, and it's 100% gonna become the next big thing (and it even kinda already is, even if it's not even officially released yet)
It does seem cool and complex, but I don't think I'll ever get good at it, so playing it myself results in a lot of frustration and peaks with a rage-quit.
I wonder if it will be interesting to watch. Day9 seems to like playing it.
Good movement, interesting laning mechanics mostly
