My two Deadlock hot takes that I will never, ever compromise on:
1) The current pick system is fantastic design and a draft would be measurably worse for all but 6v6
2) 90% of janky buggy "movement tech" needs to be obliterated and replaced with actual well designed mechanics
@deadlock_8 The radius feels a bit small but it might be fine
My main issue is the way the timers count down
I'd rather it be a tug-of-war with the losing team getting a faster "pull" but we'll see how it plays out
When I say youth is beautiful, I say it with the same dispassion with which I would describe a feather as light, or stone as hard, or fire as hot.
You would not "um ackshyually" any of those statements in spite of their subjectivity
Do you think the favoring of youth as beautiful is a contrived, learned thing? That if only we could change our perspective, we could see a 50 year old man with skin like leather in the same light as a supermodel in her early 20s?
Why do you pretend not to see the world as you know you do? What do you hope to gain from deceiving others? From deceiving yourself?
@haze_OSIC I reckon we don't get open beta until next year
We get one big update in a month or two covering like half the stuff I mentioned and the rest earlyish next year
@HartoJohan@CathyYoung63 There's wisdom hidden here
Most knowledge is actually belief, and we believe based on consensus more than evidence
This is usually fine, but it does raise a question
Are you sure you could tell the difference if it came down to it? If you had to? If your life depended on it?
@IntelDeadlock@xGrelgn When I first played deadlock on release I bounced off it partially because of the art
They really did a major overhaul
When did that actually happen? Like the lighting and the shaders, when did things go from matte ugliness to the pseudotoon style?
@RobinPoedev Looking into the footage of both the model and the actor, there's a chance some very subtle tweaking has been done, but it feels more like the inadvertent stuff and a touch of uncanny valley
I doubt they intentionally made her uglier but somebody clearly isn't great at their job
@RobinPoedev It's hard to tell how much is just crappy angle/lighting/material fuckery and how much is overt uglification
Remember the right model didn't just spawn in from the aether, somebody had to make intentional decisions about the way she should look
