Hanedog Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 What are peoples impressions of it? I know the premise is team-oriented fights but is it as fun as other mobas? Not having items seems like it takes a lot of the choice out of the game... but then again, maybe not. What do you all think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhaleTits Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 My current opinion, having played for a few days: Â Its no where near as fun as other mobas atm. many of the hero kits are un-inspiring, most heroes have anywhere from 1-4 stuns/cc. Some heroes share similar abilities - for example Illidan and Tyrael both have ults that dash to the the target unit, stunning it for 1+ second. Another hero has a dash 1.5s stun, a aoe 1s stun+knockback, and then a aoe 4s stun (ETC). Combined with how small the maps are, and how tight some of the corridors are, the game ends up feeling like a cluster flob in many situations, and team fights can be very unsatisfying when you are cc'd through the entire fight. Â Many of the maps are kinda dull, most especially the pirate one, where you can literally never fight the enemy team and just collect dubloons, then turn them in and win by having the pirate ship bombard the enemy relentlessly. In general, a lot of the objectives in the game seem to be "we will fight over this mob/boss, then the winner will get the mob/boss to join them which then wrecks the enemy team". In other words, emphasis is placed on rewarding good play by giving your team a uncontrollable NPC boss mob to do the winning for you, instead of rewarding the player by empowering the player. The two maps where this is not entirely the case -> Garden/Dragon Knight map -> where the player himself turns into the boss mob to push with his team -> are largely considered much funner maps. Â The game has potential however. The graphics are amazing, and the talent system is by far one of the most "potential" features in any moba I have played. The ability to customize your hero's abilities in game, while not a replacement for many of the mechanics the game is lacking, is single handedly the best feature I have every seen. Though currently, many of these customization options are lack luster, with some serious design reworking, the game could easily end up more engaging than LoL or Dota. Could. Â Currently the most appealing thing for me is simply leveling up my characters and gaining bonus talents/gold to spend on skins/heroes etc rather than actually playing the game, which feels more like a grind.

EterNity Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Adam, Commander, Hyly, Red, Tom, and EKO all played that game. Â We had an 5 men yesterday and it was fun! Â Â Â EterNity #1837 if you want to add me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BestPlayer Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) It's a shap game. I was invited in early alpha and probably played 5 games combined since then. Â With AoS dying you shouldn't spend your time playing shap games, but instead man up, learn dota and become a real OG.

Yaldi Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 From what I have seen by watching day9 I agree with this "Combined with how small the maps are, and how tight some of the corridors are, the game ends up feeling like a cluster flob in many situations, and team fights can be very unsatisfying when you are cc'd through the entire fight."

Hanedog Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 It sucks that a lot of Merlin has moved a majority of their play time over to HotS. I don't really want to spend the $40 but I might end up doing just because... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skydie Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Adam, Commander, Hyly, Red, Tom, and EKO all played that game. Â We had an 5 men yesterday and it was fun! Â Casual players which are the true embodiment of a casual game (soz Hyly/Commander). Makes AoS's laughable skill floor look high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMBrew Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) But hots and league of teemo are harder then dota on the individual skill lvl ^) Edited February 3, 2015 by IMBrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doom Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 I thought it was league of Draven? Tho since thresh is the most fun champ by so much it's League of Close-But-not-Quite-Landed-Hooks for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
