Valve is pretty well liked. not sure you can really call them a games publisher any more though.

Right - they don’t even make a game a decade anymore, and even Deadlock is in a genre many people aren’t interested in.

God deadlock is so good though I have to say. I have hundreds of hours already. This is coming from someone who HATED mobas and would still probably never touch dota or League

Agreed. As someone who doesn't really like shooters and never got into League or DOTA, I had mixed feelings about playing a 'hero shooter/moba'. I'm actually blown away at how good it is. They did phenomenal job. 10/10.

It's a invite only alpha and as I write this it's #7 on the steam rankings of current players, 6 if you wanna exclude Banana which is it's own hilarious thing

Dota 2 is #2 and has 565k right now
