I debated writing this or not, but I think it’s best to have it said for the future just to have it here. I’m not claiming that I’m correct with saying this, but I personally don’t care about any drama within the Deadlock competitive scene. I just wanna show up and play. I ff’ed because the game was not a real Deadlock game. I’m not pushing for MLC to be punished and I never did, nor do I care if they are.
The reality is I was emotional and felt somehow insulted by the fact that the game I love is being turned into such a slopfest, especially by people who I know love the game just as much, and I’ll keep it a buck it got to me. Am I a pussy? Yes probably, but it’s just who I am. In that moment, I could not stand to be in that game it felt like a violation to every hour I’ve spent grinding for the past 2 years out of nothing but just pure desire.
I accept that it’s childish as people have mentioned, and I am flawed, so the blame for that lies with me. The game is experimental and it deserves to test what ever it likes to, but with that being said, I don’t believe I am forced to sit there and watch or play when it’s being reduced to literal cinders of what it should be.
This is the best game ever created, and I’ve spent so much time falling in love with it that it just hurt to participate in that slopfest. I walked out the metaphorical door, and if that makes me a crybaby then it is what it is.
I created MLC initially because I wanted to compete against the original HN, and after leaving MLC because I felt that they didn’t care about the game as much as I did (and that’s fine to me, nothing personal, I just felt it wasn’t a place for me any longer), I created Floormen to compete with the levelled up MLC. All I want to do in this game is to compete and play good Deadlock and try everything in my power to improve. Everything else is a bygone. This patch is a bygone, and the game will be a clear sky once more, when they figure out the next step. I trust the devs to move forward, they always have. It just sucks sometimes, and that’s ok.
If you read all of that thank you.
