A new shooter from valve? Hell yeah!!
Oh. Never mind then.
I absolutely get where you're coming from, but to be fair Team Fortress is basically a hero shooter as well, except that there can be multiples of the same "hero" on the battlefield at the same time. Or - and I'm genuinely asking because I haven't played "hero shooters" in that long - am I missing a core distinction of hero shooters?
I was thinking something more in line with a narrative story-based shooter like half life. TF2 and other competitive shooter arena games were never really my thing.
I love valve (as much as I can love any company anyway) and I'd like to try deadlock at some point if given the opportunity, but hero shooters are not for everyone, give me a single player story any day
*cries in Half Life 3
So a class shooter?
Same thing, innit, the only difference is the plot
TF2 is a class based team deathmatch FPS. One class, one character.
In hero shooters you have multiple characters with different abilities that make them distinct from each other, yet all can conform to a certain class type and role.
Someone has never played a round of highlander.
