A tweet that has me thinking.

I don’t know if Riot can copy what valve has created with Deadlock. The atmosphere and setting so what I think makes deadlock so enjoyable. Yes the gameplay is amazing and the moba aspects are great but I just don’t think riot will even try to copy valve and make a deadlock clone. What is all y’all’s thoughts.

Extremely funny the difference between riot fans (couldn't give two shits about any "rivalry") vs valve fans (absolute seething hatred towards riot and anybody who even suggests they had fun playing a riot game)

It's also funny seeing the difference in how they glaze.

Riot consumer generally don't have a strong opinion on the company (in the west at least, idk about Asia), usually they'll shit on the game (jokingly or not)

While Valve consumers are obsessed with their company and hate anything outside of it.
I remember hella post on PCMR about how they'd rather pay full price of a game on steam than get it for free from Epic Games Store because anything that's not Steam is inferior. That and how GabeN is the only good billionaire and how he can do no wrong.

Glazing or hating (unless valid) corpos just seems weird to me. Maybe it's just me getting older but I just want to enjoy games, I'm getting tired of this weird tribalism people have about their shit.

Ah yes epic the clinet that runs like shit with nothing or anywhere as good as steam along with it's owner who's been hating on steam and trying anything he can to fuck with valve... I wonder why people hate him along with the unreal engine that imo dis more harm than good for the gaming industry.

It's funny how devs themselves came out and said when their games are free on epic their steam sales explode so it's not just valve fanboys it's everyone in general lol
