Fuck Tim Sweeny

I love Deadlock, but I am worried about a hyper competitive scene being a big part of it. I’m happy exploring mechanics without being flamed.

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.
