Valve Deadlock

See anything that reminds you of Bioshock Infinite?

Looks just as colorful to me too. Almost like they hired the graphics artists/level designers from the Bioshock Infinite team.

Why would they go in this direction and not do HL3?

MORONS!

EDIT: Title changed.

Um, that is Bioshock Infinite. You have unfortunately wandered onto one of those channels that makes videos of them talking over completely unrelated games. Deadlock is a 6v6 hero shooter.

I WAS wondering why the first video I saw looked different but it was crappy resolution so this was the next option.

Half Life 3 is dead and as a massive Half Life fan, I honestly hope it stays dead. It'll never live up to the hype that we've all built in our heads around the game and without the original team, I believe it'll just feel like an empty shell of what it could have been. Valve does seem like one of the few companies left that aren't mandated by investor timelines, but I still don't have high hopes for them being able to pull that one out and delivering.

That being said, I only heard of Deadlock because some gaming "journalist" recently was blocked from playing because they wrote an article about it, but the catch was that they technically never signed the NDA. They claimed they "pressed Escape" and backed out of the NDA without ever clicking "OK" so they were allowed to talk about it, so while Valve couldn't legally do anything against them, they simply blocked them from playing in the end. A lot of people were saying their first impressions was this game is Overwatch in the TF2 universe but despite some people thinking that might be someone talking shit, I saw nothing but praise for the game.

I don't care for Overwatch styled games, but I do hope this is a resounding success and spurs Valve into creating games again and while I don't want them to try for HL3, I would absolutely love a L4D3.

Too much parkour for my liking.
