Just curious what the demographic here is like. The game seems to be appealing, at least for now, to both crowds. I am an FPS player whereas my friend is a ex-MOBA player and we usually struggle to find games we can enjoy equally. So far we are playing Deadlock a lot together though, and I am more hooked than I expected to be when I first realised this was primarily a MOBA.

If you started playing this game for a different reason feel free to share as well.

    Both, actually.

    I played Dota 2 a bunch back in the day, and struggled with FPS games. Eventually I got enough of Dota and moved onto other games, eventually finding my FPS home first with Tribes Ascend, then later with Titanfall 2. Tribes was when aiming and moving truly clicked for me and I started seeing results in terms of my skill improving.

    From there, I found and adored Battleborn, somewhat enjoyed Overwatch, played a good bit of Apex with one friend…

    Battleborn shutting down was horrible, but Deadlock has now realized the kind of game that is truly and completely “for me”. It implements a collection of mechanics that is just pure crack imo. The movement system especially is 😘👌 for my titanfall playing ass.
