DotA - The thread
 
Link

I think only six words need to be said:

Fuck you Valve.

Take my money...

Kim 08-15-2011 09:28 PM

"What doe does a hero truly need?" Prerendered cinematics that tell nothing about what makes this DotA clone special except that it apparently has DotA in the name apparently.

Jagos 08-15-2011 09:29 PM

So you haven't followed the links to the site yet?

Kim 08-15-2011 09:31 PM

What am I missing?

That there's a tournament?

That their Q&A explains what DotA is?

Nikose Tyris 08-15-2011 09:34 PM

...actually this looks less impressive then LoL does.

And LoL's tourney is worth 5Mil.

And there's also videos

I'll stick with SotIS (StarCraft 2's user-made DotA clone. It was my first introduction to the MOBA genre and I've stuck with it since) and the occasional LoL. Nothing I'm seeing about DotA 2 has me clamoring to get this game, especially considering all the alternatives.

And here is where you sign up for the beta if you are interested.

Since LoL is free, I can't see myself paying for this game.

Ramary 08-17-2011 12:37 AM

I doubt it will be pay to play, all of it's competitors are F2P (okay technically you gotta buy Wc3+TFT for DOTA allstars) and valve got great success with TF2 being F2P. I will be surprised and confused if it is not F2P.

Wow people still play Dota Allstars? I figured it just died out once HoN and LoL came along, or at least due to how old Frozen Throne is.

Ramary 08-17-2011 03:17 AM

THAT IS ALL PEOPLE PLAY ON WC3.

Kinda killed the custom game scene for me. One of the reason I got SC2.

Every site I have been to has it set at 50-60 bucks. I might pay 20, especiAlly since it is valve, but not even they get that much from me for dota

DotA: where I can play the Loltergeist(tm) character.

Hell yes. The original is still fun.
LoL otherwise, as that's the one my friends got into and, thus, the one I played. Back in open beta. I have no idea which I'd play now, though I have tried out the SC2 custom maps scene.
