Images leak of Valve's next game, and it's an Overwatch-style hero shooter (www.eurogamer.net)

Though the way the leaker describes it makes it sound more like a 3rd person MOBA than a hero shooter.

Valve famously only works on what excites them. You're yelling me THIS is that?? How utterly defeatingly disappointing.

Bold statement. Might wanna hold judgment till you actually see some gameplay.

It goes both ways then, people who are happy should shut up until they see some gameplay.

But sir... The comment section? Why are we here?

People who don't care are allowed to comment, that's it.

Yeah I agree.

We don't know anything yet.

Artifact would like a word.

Like idk, when overwatch came out, it was an absolute blast. I wasn't looking forward to it at all, i didn't care for it a bit until i played it. It just got run into the ground slowly. Also they made team fortress 2 way WAY before, and yeah that's what they excites them.

While I'll likely still play this I have to agree.

Valve's game development division feels more like a weird cult than a proper game company. I don't think they get "excited" for the things that most people get excited for. (Remember when they were excited for a virtual card game where you have to pay for every card?) The Valve of the 2000s is long gone IMO

Typically valve only puts out games that showcase something new, so might be interesting

Looks nervously at counter strike and dota.

They were both originally mods that they adopted rather than original creations though, right?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

I think, also if I recall both games were genre defining

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Is it really surprising? It's not like it's their first competitive shooter.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 3 months ago

Just think of the loot boxes they can sell.
