    Is just not a Game

    Is just not a game for me is a life then I Play this game over 17 years For me best strategie game for all Times
    10mjess96

    My experience when I started playing Dota 2.

    Dota is a competitive game of action and strategy, played both professionally and casually incompetently by millions of enslaved passionate fans Russians worldwide. Players pick from a pool of over a hundred heroes carries, forming two teams of five players five feeders. Radiant heroes then battle their Dire counterparts to control a gorgeous fantasy landscape, waging campaigns of cunning, stealth, and outright warfare raging in an unknown language and team fighting with one RAMPAGE victor.

    Irresistibly colourful on the surface addictive, Dota is a game of infinite depth and complexity which requires, no, in fact takes an infinite amount of your life away. Every hero has an array of skills and abilities that combine with the skills of their allies in unexpected ways, to ensure that no game is ever remotely alike that allow players to screw with their allies and get their teams killed. This is one of the reasons that the Dota phenomenon has continued to grow Dota will have more rage quitting and all chat abuse than any other game. Originating as a fan-made Warcraft 3 modification, Dota was an instant underground hit. After coming to Valve, the original community developers have bridged the gap to a more inclusive audience Russia, so that the rest of the world can experience the same core game-play, but with the level of polish that only Valve can provide learn from these ingenious people and become inspired to spread their knowledge with the rest of the world.

    Get a taste of the game that has enthralled millions will happily teach you fluent Russian all for the sweet price of $0.

    NOTE: Original description by Valve, edited by myself.

    It either gets you or you will quit and say it's to hard

    2500 + hours. Somehow it never gets old and it is the most challenging game I have ever played. If you really try and learn how to play, it is amazing.

    Starts out strong

    I never played this game or the original WoW, but have spent a few thousand hours on other fantasy game worlds. Let's just say I am in their target demo for this thing. The protagonist is voiced by none other than Sasuke, wielding a sword and dealing justice to some amazingly animated dragons. For the first few episodes, it is epic. Then, a second, mostly unrelated, story takes center stage. It is convoluted, poorly written, and once unfolded, actually seems kind of dumb. It is a far cry from the charm or intrigue of Dragon Prince, and lacks the relatable relationships of Naruto, Fullmetal or even AoT.

    The final upgrade for the War3-mod fans

    Icefrog has made a great work in here, adding the original names to the champions and skills, giving originality to certain features that give the game the difficulty (and dynamism) we were expecting.

    As a huge fan of the original War3 modified map Dota-AllStars i have to say this is all i have been expecting and more. The map, the names, the skills and the items have been upgraded but all of this has been made to be easy to remember, and learn, how to play.

    The game is very well balanced.

    I miss certain things like the designs on some characters and items, but is OK.

    Grab your mouse, turn on the speakers, it's time to play!

    • Trivia
      The developer of Warcraft III, Blizzard Entertainment, largely opposed the development and branding of Dota 2. They filed an opposition to Valve's trademark, but the ruling was in Valve's favor, effectively transferring the franchise away from Blizzard and to Valve.

      [from trailer]

      Shopkeeper: Often, I am asked: "what does a hero truly need?"

      [chuckles]

      Shopkeeper: Much depends upon the hero. Would you be swift? Then for you, I have speed beyond measure. Would you be strong? Then I can grant you the might to overpower any foe! Would you be wise? Then come closer and I will unlock your inner cunning!

      [beat]

      Shopkeeper: What does a hero truly need?

      [screen switches to black, briefly, before returning to the shopkeeper]

      Shopkeeper: That is for *you* to decide...
