HIII BOOKIE!!!! what is deadlock ive been seeing ur reblogs on the tl im curious
Deadlock is a MOBA Hero Shooter game made by Valve.
I just said a lot of gamer words so incase you or literally anyone else dunno what those mean
MOBA = Multiplayer Online Battle Arena, MOBA games are like League of Legends, DOTA2, and a couple others.
You start with nothing and work up getting money and buffs with items you buy from a shop to make you more and more powerful until you take and kill the enemy base, or until your base is taken. MOBAs are usually like fully third person, almost birds eye view, but that’s where it’s different here.
The combat system is a Hero Shooter combat system.
Hero Shooters are games like, for this specifically, Marvel Rivals and Overwatch. Other hero shooters include Valorant, Apex legends, and Team Fortress 2!
Those are really popular now so it’s kinda hard to describe em. Because a lot is happening all the time in those games.
MOBA game mechanics and rule set with the combat system being more similarly to a hero shooter. It’s a beautiful blend. It gives the hero shooter genre more structure and honestly lets the combat system breathe in certain ways bc you have to take your time.
This game is in ALPHA. Yeah you heard me, EARLY ACCESS!!! and it looks better then most fully out games, (i mean triple A games).
The game is CONSTANTLY being worked on, constantly has updates and balance changes to make sure the game is good to play and balanced as they can be, ofc some characters get overtuned, but it happens.
Valve is the fucking best. If you don’t know who valve is, they’re the people who made steam, portal, tf2, counter strike, half life, left for dead, and ofc all of those games’ sequels n stuff.
This game probably sounds complicated and boring on paper but it’s genuinely made me realize how much I love Hero Shooters again, besides horror it’s genuinely my fav Genre, and how upset and bored i was getting made me realize that gaming isn’t bad it’s just some games ARE bad, or don’t fix issues that need to be fixed, or shit at balancing, or a ton of other problems. Characters get reworks very easily in Deadlock, updates constantly, fixing and unfixing things just to test it and see how it feels. This game is INVITE ONLY EARLY ACCESS ALPHA and has more than 100k players constantly!! and i assure you there’s a reason for that. It’s hard to learn bc ofc MOBAs are hard to learn but I love teaching people so if you wanna learn im happy to help! (dm me on discord friend)
I’m sure someone could probably explain this better then me, feel free to in the comments or reposts if stuff i said need more clarification 👍👍👍
