Part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnL5tziT3kM
In this mini series we look at various "TF2 clones" and even "Overwatch clones" (other people's words - not mine!) and talk about why these games have those reputations, how the developers addressed (or embraced) the concerns, and how the "alive" or "dead" those games are today.
In this second part we talk about the games that viewers suggested in the previous video and their TF2 relationship. Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare has direct developer quotes, Paladins also has direct developer quotes as well as a cross promotion. I wasn't able to find anything direct and official from the Battleborn developers, however the likenesses are clear and the comparisons flood forums and videos all over the internet, plus you guys suggested it so here it is!
