billions of dollars and still no indication of half life 3 come on gaben just make it bug free and well optimized on release its gonna be a hit since most triple a games these days are half baked rushed products
I'm in the play test for this, and boy is this meme wrong.
Why? (I’m excited for this)
If I break NDA, Gaben will come for me. There's leaked YouTube videos though.
Oh yeah that’s true, I’m too in a NDA-protected MOBA project by the old team behind League of Legends
And it’s amazing, it’s called Project Loki & they’ll show more the 25th June!
what game is that?
Deadlock
Thanks, been reading all these comments and I'm like, ok im the only one here who doesn't know what game they talking about
Or maybe a Dota-inspired collectible card game? 🙃
Fuck you Garfield
To say it's a "4 lane overwatch", overwatch still has to exist
He meant Overwatch 2
Which is also kinda not a thing. It doesn't know what to do with itself except skins and reboots, can't call it a genre defining game (anymore).
Overwatch 2 isnt even a second installment. (Laughs in someone who purchased OW1 and unlocked content).
I don't get the hate. A 1st person moba sounds fucking fire. Added bonus that it's valve's community.
is it caz tf2 is on fire?
EDIT: oh, it's 3rd person! sry
I’m not big into multiplayer games, but I have noticed that lemmy and Reddit just get very pessimistic whenever a beloved company announces a multiplayer game
TF2 was on fire for years and they did jack shit. Yeah that makes me veeery optimistic and excited about their next game (/s)
but they got hats, and if you really think about it, that's not much less than what most competetive games get for updates (only skins)
Epic Games had a first person shooter moba, called Paragon, that failed and closed down. It was actually not bad, just not popular enough.
Sounds fire? So surely you've heard of Smite then? Or Paragon? Or Paragon: Overprime? Or Predecessor?
I didn't but I do like the idea
I thought about mentioning Smite myself, but it's over-the-shoulder, not 1st person. From a quick Google, Paragon and Predecessor seem to be the same.
Yes, but I commented after the edit where the OP realized their mistake and corrected it to 3rd person.
I'm really hopeful. I want something to scratch the Overwatch itch after it's gone down hill.
Take2 tried it with Battleborn, but failed miserably. Sincerely hoping Valve is more successful. I would love to play a 1st person moba.
I've seen pre-alpha gameplay and it's currently 3rd person. Maybe they'll change it though. Valve tends to test heavily and make lots of changes over time before release.
I've made a mistake, it's 3rd person. Sorry, just don't wanna missinform
If you're interested in a 1st person moba, try smite
I've made a mistake, it's 3rd person. Sorry, just don't wanna missinform
Smite is 3rd person though
Yes
as someone who doesn't care for competitive fps's, is this pro-valve or anti-valve?
It's just an attention grab. There are literally 4 screenshots of this new game that have been leaked. There's basically no info about it. To say it's a clone of another game is ridiculous. Like saying it's a clone of Doom because it has guns.
Was the gameplay video I stumbled across somewhere not legitimate?
They're saying Valve are lazy for making a near-copy of another game
Which is funny because overwatch was a near-copy of Valve’s TF2.
it really wasn't people just liked to compare both of them because both of them were "fps hero shooter" but the core gameplay and mechanics were very much different.
It's almost like competition may even make better games of their target genre
No, it's new ideas and authentic expression.
Why make a new car? The model T has 4 wheels and a seat, doesn't it?
And was actually really good off road!
Obviously
