    Yup, don’t care about it. Not my type of game. Also a genre with too many games as it is for the genre to really support, IMO.

    It will have to be nearly perfect to pull people from other similar games. It needs to fix the issues the others have, at launch, or it will be dead on arrival.

      Eh, there was definitely a couple years where the market was flooded, but at this point there really aren’t any notable games in the genre other than League, Dota, and Smite. Deadlock being a third person game puts it in direct competition with Smite, though it’s also got more shooter DNA, which is aiming to bring in the overwatch crowd refugees. And at least IMO it already feels better than Smite, or any of the other abortive attempts at a third person moba over the years.
