You're the one being dishonest. You and the other guy seem deadset convinced that calling something "old" is the equivalent of advocating for enshittified live service games. Here's a hint: it's not.
Ok, then what does it mean to you? Were you confused why Baldur's Gate 3 was made too? It's an even older gameplay concept and did less to change it.
Edit: I'm also struggling to see how I was being "dishonest" by sharing an opinion.
Your argument is dishonest because you are completely misinterpreting what I'm saying - in plain English, you're putting words in my mouth that I haven't said. Then you're attacking that made up concept instead of actually engaging in a discussion.
Allow me to clarify:
You've attacked "old" as me somehow implying that "new" is automatically better, which not only have I not said, but also don't believe in
With your Baldur's Gate 3 comment you're somehow implying that I think that ALL "old" titles are somehow bad, which is also not something I have said and also don't believe in
So to reiterate: I don't think that new games are automatically better and I don't think that old games are automatically worse. This is where your dishonesty stems from. I hope you actually understand that.
I have said this multiple times already but I guess I'll say it again: it means Deadlock is not for me because I find it uninteresting. I guess I am just really disappointed that a company as revered as Valve could churn out something so bland.
Bonus round:
No.
