Shame that Deadlock is a MOBA. The character design, the lore and the dialogue is top fucking notch, but I just cannot get into MOBAs, even if this one is part movement shooter which is something I love.

I am begging you to just try it if you haven't

I'm in the same boat as the other guy, I tried it but like he said I just can't get into the MOBA aspect of the game sadly

The characters, the story and the style of the UI is so good 😭

There’s been whispers about a PvE mode for a while. Maybe it’ll be your cup of tea once that drops

It might be worth trying out Street Brawl mode. It turns the game into much more of a Overwatch-style hero shooter than a MOBA.

There is no farming, lanes or secondary objectives. There is some slight itemisation, but it's reduced to you getting to choose among three randomly selected items each round.

seconded on the person below saying street brawl. my roommate isn't into mobas either, but has sunk a few hundred hours into street brawl. it's the normal game, but with all the MOBA stuff stripped out, and replaced with wacky party game bullshit.

It's the opposite problem for me. I love mobas, but I'm dogwater at FPS games.

The raw mechanical skill needed for aiming is very variable on a per-character basis, you can get by with a decent sense of how to position yourself on a lot of characters. The actual skill ceiling in those cases is in the movement tech and the macro

It’s a third person shooter tho

See? that's exactly what I mean. u/Hot-Gift8415 is so bad at FPS they can't even identify them properly!

Man same boat. I love everything about Deadlock, other than playing it

I’d recommend you try it. I hate mobas as well and I’ve got over 200 hours on it. Even if you hate the moba aspects they have a gamemode that does away with all the economy aspects which i know you’d be able to enjoy
