Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of January 20th
Three day weekend ... Messed up my schedule. Oh well, what have you been playing? I've been checking out a ton of cool playdate stuff, as well as more binding of Isaac. I also picked up a game called the roottrees are dead that I'm excited to check out! It seems like a game similar to case of the golden idol which is one of my all time faves

Nothing. My GPU is in for RMA. It died in the middle of me and a friend finally hanging out to get into the RE4 Remake together.
What I WANT to play is Deadlock.
...
Actually, I have a steamdeck, so I've been tackling an MGR playthrough on revengeance difficulty. But holy crap the Deadlock withdrawal is real.
Deadlock
This looks really cool. I have completely missed the lead up to this game, anything in particular you're excited about it? I'd love to hear it.
Everything?
It has the complexity of a MOBA (but genius level UX that completely addresses how that would normally be daunting, through a fantastic community item build system), movement approaching the intensity of Titanfall and a match format that finally fills the hole in my heart that was left by Battleborn, and is maybe even better.
It has a a unique 80s magic/fantasy aesthetic, and what we know of the lore so far is fantastic. (I laughed out loud when walking by a radio in-game and a newscaster voice went "Have love potions ruined dating?! These 20-somethings tell all!")
My advice, hit up !deadlock@sopuli.xyz, get an invite, and just give it a try. The way it's looking, it might turn out my favorite game of all time.
Oh thanks, this does look pretty killer. I haven't gotten into a MOBA in a while but something fresh and different could tempt me. I'll add this to my queue!
MOBA is an accurate description of the game systems, but playing it, it feels like the first genuinely fresh game in a decade.
To me, at least.
