    The industry has seen a lot of success with “hero shooters” like Overwatch, so dunno what this article is talking about.

    This reminds me of all those armchair analysts saying “single player is dead everything must be multiplayer to sell”, then Cyberpunk, Elden Eing, and Baldurs Gate 3 came.

      Suicide squad, though, each hero has the exact same ability. A melee strike that knocks the enemy to make them easier to shoot. Well kinda. Boomerang can knock from distance, shark can AOE knock. And the guns are completely interchangeable, too. Boomerang can be handed a sniper rifle and now he’s Deadshot.
