What is your background? MOBA or FPS? - eviltoast

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.

    I’m similar as far as FPS games go. Titanfall 2 is a masterpiece, and I enjoyed Overwatch with some friends until the long series of baffling decisions from Blizzard that began slowly killing the game.

    I never could get into MOBAs though. I played a handful of LOL, HOTS, and Smite games and it just felt like I either spent 30 minutes losing a game or won for a reason no one could comprehend.

    Deadlock has been crack since I got my invite. It scratches the shooter itch, and found a way to make the MOBA mechanics more accessible to me.
