It’s like Overwatch, Dota 2, and Team Fortress 2 all baked into a pie.

A new shooter from valve? Hell yeah!!

a hero shooter

Oh. Never mind then.

I absolutely get where you're coming from, but to be fair Team Fortress is basically a hero shooter as well, except that there can be multiples of the same "hero" on the battlefield at the same time. Or - and I'm genuinely asking because I haven't played "hero shooters" in that long - am I missing a core distinction of hero shooters?

I was thinking something more in line with a narrative story-based shooter like half life. TF2 and other competitive shooter arena games were never really my thing.
