I believe so. Was promised the AG position if I remember right.

0% critics recommend? Damn.
I would be very surprised if Trump honors the agreement. After the election is over RFK will already have served his purpose, and will have no leverage. Trump will claim they never had any deal and RFK will be left holding his dick.
That will be the way to go for sure. Immersion is everything in these games.
Nothing sweeter than imagine "fuck this shit I'm out" playing on loudspeakers all over the world as you board the rocket and look down at the smoking husk of a world you leave behind.
I'm also a Civ V truther. VI never hooked me at all but I still regularly go back to V as a comfort game.
Valve is not a normal company. As far as I know they still have their fluid work structure in place where projects are dictated by what the devs themselves feel like doing and are inspired by.
Icefrog (who was the lead developer of Dota 2 - and Dota 1 for many years before that) is lead developing Deadlock as I understand it. It has his fingerprints all over it, at least. It seems enough other people at Valve liked his idea of a twist on the MOBA concept to turn it into a full project.
I feel your frustration but there isn't really any opportunity cost lost here. It's not that they decided to make "a game" and chose this one out of all available options. If they felt like they had enough ideas to make Half-Life 3 (or any other single player game) then they would have. It's just that this is the game they want to make right now.
Would be silly to ban this because of the implication. There is literally nothing untoward with the submission. It's just an empty room. Anyone who knows what it refers to have already seen the material it references so who exactly are you "protecting"?
Playing Dota 5v5 in-houses were some of my fondest gaming memories. Playing Dota random queue matchmaking were my most miserable times in gaming.
I hate being a downer but this is a MOBA. It's going to be toxic.
I don't have a settled three since I'm still working through all the heroes and finding my favourites. And I'm not that great at the game so don't want to tell people how to play. But I do prefer a couple of heroes.
Paradox is probably my favourite to play. The burst fire weapon helps me last hit, which is nice, and both the grenade and the charged shot are very powerful laning abilities. She has some insane combos you can pull off, and setting up kills with the swap is a great feeling late game when you need to initiate team fights.
Shiv with quicksilver reload on his dagger and extra charges is just a ridiculous hero. Very fun to play and can completely massacre people.
Pocket is the hero I thought I'd like the most when just reading the skill descriptions and looking at the art. Absolutely love the design, and while I need to work on my aim I'm pretty good at juking, which he plays into well. I do struggle a bit in lane with him due to his weapon tempting me to go close range a lot. I'm still mostly ass with him, but hopefully I'll figure it out eventually.
