Deadlock did not copy Overwatch or Paladins

Valve made Team Fortress 2

Overwatch and Paladins are both heavily inspired by TF2

Please stop accusing Valve of such stuff, it’s annoying.

Jeff Kaplan’s all time favourite game: TEAM FORTRESS 2

CEO of Hi-Rez also admit Paladins was heavily inspired by Team Fortress 2

(idc if this gets no likes and replies, I just hope the people spreading the misinformation about Valve will see this)

Who ever says Deadlock copies anything from overwatch, is high on copium. Those two are fundamentally different games, and have almost nothing in common.

Both are true ow copied tf2 made it different, valve now copied overwatch a bit and merged with dota.

Grey talon voice is exactly like hanzo.

Like a lot of hero voices are similar to their counter part in ow

Anyway both are still different games.

Who said that? Not even Concord “copied” OW, because it plays completely different.

Concord failed cause of oversight at every level.

They do have a decent core game bogged down by stupidity at every level elsewhere.

I didn’t say anything about its popularity tho. Just the aesthetics.

I add it to the original post, this is just 1 of so many times I’ve seen people claim it’s a copy of overwatch on these forums

It’s irritating me not only that, they are also different games, plus all the other stuff I mentioned in the OP too lol.

Ya that was caused by dei influences by consulting team.

They were a lost cause when they can’t do things creatively and freely.

Obviously tf2 old people are hurt over it, though ow crowd is obnoxious, especially in other games, if there is a whiner in rivals or deadlock, it’s a overwatch player most of the time.

Yes I’ve seen it being said a bunch lately so I just make the thread I don’t usually get annoyed but so bored of the “he copied, she copied, they copied” ranting I always seeing especially when it’s so far from the truth

At this point I think the general consensus is that deadlock has very little to do with OW.
It may still steal OW players though if valve plays their cards right.

Just because OW was inspired by TF2, does not mean that Deadlock was not inspired by OW and rather TF2. All games “steal” the best things from other games, put them together and put their twist on it. Its rare for something truly new and unseen to come out.

Also stop feeling attacked by people thinking that Deadlock is Overwatch with a twist. It will be more than clear when it comes out.

Who is feeling attacked? there is a difference between logic and feeling attacked

whenever another game comes out that has some heroes and abilities people always raging on about how it’s “gonna kill x” every single time or how it’s a “copy of x”

It’s so boring and stale at this point, how many years have we see the same type of threads over and over?

You have created a thread, where you explain to people that Deadlock is not a OW copy and that people should:

Why do you care so much about it? Let the people have their stupid takes. Its not worth the effort.

And? why can’t I make a thread

First saying I feel “attacked” then when I say I am “not feeling attacked” you try something else

One the are supposed to be aren’t and clearly forgot to add the last part in which Overwatch is killing itself. Going to quote something add the rest
