While some players remain worried, many pro players who have had hands-on experience with Valorant are very positive about it. The tactical nature of the gameplay mixed with likable, striking characters could prove Valorant a cross-market success. After all, Riot has found worldwide success with League of Legends , a character-based MOBA that has branched out into various mediums, including hit music videos in the Korean Pop genre. Riot aims to bridge two kinds of first-person shooter subgenres into a definitive vision. The hype that Valorant is generating is palpable, even through the light criticism. Pre-launch trailers for the game have gathered millions of views, and with an impending beta, **Valorant ** will soon be in the hands of the play

There's no reason a military drama can't be blended with a soapy melodrama, but Valor doesn't seem to have the right formula just yet. Perhaps it will work things out as the series progresses, but then again, perhaps it will mean the network president's dream of having a military drama on his schedule will have to wait a bit lon


It's clear that Valor intends there to be high stakes all around, as that's one of the appeals of military dramas.
