The overwatch mode is like wraith night. What a good time for dota that was.
rip fun dota modes 2012-2014. custom games just dont have the same community hype or activity.

 

[bbd23]

dont forget the drop system is trash too.

rip good years of dota.

 

[Red UFO]

We traded the old event-style custom game modes for constant battle passes and in game challenges. Not a good trade IMO.

Why couldn't we just get some map pumpkins and spooky roshan?

great for valve tho

 

[LiQuid!]

To be fair, the old Diretide was nonstop free hats. There's no way that was sustainable for Valve. I'm ok with there being a battle pass buy-in to getting access to hat windfalls but the in-game challenges have irreparably fucked the game and are the reason I barely play anymore.

Hey I don't mind paying for hats, but wtf is this shit?

Gimme a spooky courier ffs

Oh God, I have had a "High Skill" game with a Legion Commander jungle who was flaming me from the start for playing Centaur mid.

I was playing versus an Invoker and got ganked twice by the opponent Pudge (the first time with an invisibility rune, since we had no vision of that rune).

Then somehow (sarcasm inside), we win the game with some smart pushes, and my teammates are like "this is the easiest game of my life", and they repeat that a few times...

Somehow oblivious to the fact that this is the kind of games that I have been playing more than 50 times each time I pick Centaur mid. It helps to fight high-ground when towers are already down.



I have got to say the safelane and the offlane were good enough. Space created for them by playing 1 vs 2 mid basically.

They should remove the win conditions for in have challenges but increase the amount needed to complete a certain challenge

I would be happy with that or meet the conditions over three loses or one win and have to finish the game.

To be honest I am sort of fine how it is already. Would be nice if you got an item drop every few quests or so as well. Cannot remember the last time i got a do at the end of a game.

Od is fun hero 👍

Only way I'll ever finish any of the quests

 

[StrongArmSteady]

That free trade quest is bullshit especially in 2k

No he isn't

I have a feeling Miracle is going to be back with OG after this major

draskyl is such a terrible streamer lmao

such a whiner

 

[waxinlyrical]

draskyl is such a terrible streamer lmao

such a whiner

Can confirm. I had a 5 stack with me and my college buddies matched up against him and his subs once, and we beat him. I checked dotabuff later and found out it was Draskyl and watched the stream archive excitedly.

He whined a lot when he lost.

Are you guys still playing this shitty game? Battlerite is the new MOBA hotness.

It's china bait like everything else since new bloom.

Also, the best part of diretide wasn't the free hats (though the halloween hats were awesome) but the awesome CTF/Candy-stealing mode. Killing Roshan at the end was dull

gaming side tells me it's not a moba tho

 

[Haly]

Gaming side bought into the NWS hype train then, when it became a meme, bailed out and joined in burning Sean in effigy. That tells you all you need to know about how reliable gaming side is.

They're still trying to convince themselves VR is relevant when Oculus' founder was shown to support neo nazis, 4head.

Guys, did Ghostcrawler say things this stupid when he was part of the WoW dev team?

I mean the dude lied or at best misled people

I personally think the game was overhyped, even if it was litterally everything that was promised. The product being sold did not look good in my opinion. It lacked a compelling reason to actually play.

 

[52club]

Update, to tell people to turn off xbox DVR function for game in windows. I should have known installing Forza Horizon 3 would come with a cost. My framerate took a huge hit as of late DOTA (even on a 980ti), fuck MS.

I don't remember, but this kind of thinking is what made WoW the game it is today, for bad or good.

I get the feeling that people here have been trying to tell you that for some time. Did you think they were all lying?

Damn, mate. I could've told you that ages ago.

 

[Kade]

I just came to the realization that I actually am an asshole.

You just have high standards for yourself and others and there is nothing wrong with that.

Thanks Kade, fuck off rest.

I enjoyed playing monhun with you. Yer not so bad.

It's just what dota does to you.

I haven't played Dota in a month. I have no excuse. I'm just a straight up motherfucker.

Dota changes people on a base level. rewrites your code.

no it doesn't, it might trigger peoples inner assholes because its frustrating and its easy to blame others rather then yourself.

I haven't played since July and I wasn't even frustrated with the game. I've just been busy and wanted to take a break until I get my new PC.

The irony that none of you will ever know since we don't play together is I'm at my most zen when I play (pub) Dota. I only ever got mad at the guys I used to play with but we were our own toxic little community that spent years fostering a specific brand of loathing for one another. Now that I've excised them from my life every solo queue game I play I'm like video game Gandhi.

My realization that I suck as a person came from getting a reply to a trolly comment I made on a youtube video of a semi-popular song from the artist himself, or at least whoever monitors his youtube account. Why am I trolling youtube comments? There's no gain from it. I'm just adding to the din. It's not constructive at all and it's not something any rational human should be doing.

LiQuid!, your problem might be that you have too much free time.

Liquid, video game Ghandi drops nukes like a motherfucker in Civ. You might need to pick a better comparison.

Whats wrong with being in your mind thirties and trolling YouTube comments?
