PvE Deadlock already exists—it’s called Risk of Rain 2.
The two games actually have a decently similar feel and it’s no surprise that Valve eventually hired some of the RoR2 devs.
I very much don’t think RoR 2 feels like Deadlock. The movement is so much faster, missions so much longer, amount of enemies so much greater, and the camera shows so much more it’s incomparable.
The closest game I can think of to Deadlock I’ve played is Monday Night Combat but is like apples to oranges. Deadlock feels unique to me.
