Though the way the leaker describes it makes it sound more like a 3rd person MOBA than a hero shooter.

Sounds more like SMITE than overwatch

Or Paragon even. That game was so fun back in the day before it got killed. If anyone can make something that fun again, it's probably Valve.

Was it really that good? I heard it was overwatch from wish when it launched but then got better. I never tried it, because i didn't wanna learn something new.

It was a hero shooter MOBA but with some verticality, so that's about as far as the Overwatch comparison goes. I had a great time with it. I like traditional MOBAs but don't have the skill/patience/time for them, so hero shooter MOBAs are the perfect way for me to be able to play them more casually. In my opinion, of the few I've tried, Paragon was the best implementation of a hero shooter MOBA; the core gameplay just felt really tight to me.
