>So is this game dead?
Nope.

>Is this game good?
Yup.
>>
>>333388639
Its better than other mobas, but that's not saying much
Game's slowly dying though
>>
>>333388639
Yes. No.
>>
>>333388767
Actually, I think that I am starting to see it more consistently appear among the most played games on Twitch on some nights.

Not that this is a precise indicator of anything, but maybe, somehow it might be catching on?

Either way, I don't believe that this game is particularly good.
>>
>>333388767

it's hard to tell desu, the esports isn't as popular as LOL but if something isn't broke, no need to fix it right?

out of all moba's - I think HOTS is the best one fun factor wise; unless dominating someone is fun for you then it ain't for you.

only thing I hate is the EXP grind on heroes.
>>
>>333388639
It's boring, but it's short so it won't destroy your life unless you try to grind.
>>
Blizz balances this game often unlike Riot which is why champions fall in and out of top tier

That's only because they have had their major yearly tournaments over the past month or so.

You have to watch that garbage if you want to receive ingame rewards, like stupid little profile pictures, or see exclusive reveals of new heroes.

>>
>>333388639

>>
>>333388639
I tried to play it 3 times with few months in between. It's too casual, very grindy, and it's boring to play and watch.
Failure

Blizzard has done a pretty good job of balancing, oddly enough. Heroes are released at a decent pace too.
I like it more than LoL, but it doesn't have the depth Dota 2 has.

Although, the short matches are something I've grown to appreciate after having hour long Dota 2 matches that go absolutely nowhere.
>>
It lacks waifus though

In his defense, when your concept art looks like this it's hard to even consider your favorite character waifu material or even human.

Dying, propped only by esports like Overwatch will be.

This is the NEET hour though so blizzcucks will be on the defensive this thread. Wait for people actually 18+ who dont watch esports shit have jobs and actually played the game to come home then post howthey all quit.
>>
>>333391590
are you implying that looks bad?

>>333391660
But this is the most casual of the mobas, surely those people would be defending it.

Fans generally agree that she has had the worst concept art yet, so yes.
>>
>>333388639
I think it's really fucking fun with friends. However, solo experience is, in my opinion, pretty miserable due to really fucking shitty matchmaking (especially in ranked) and the fact that you can't really carry your team alone, like you can in DOTA / LoL.

This game is popular on twitch right now.

HAHA, this is bronze logic, I win 80% of my games because I'm not a stupid bronzie, the matchmaking is fine the only time you get fucked is when a premade party of 3 or 4 butt buddies are on your team and they won't do anything with you and make the game 4v5 for themselves

People seem to be really nice in this game despite the whole "moba communities are toxic" thing. Was playing by myself a couple days ago had a good match and ended up teaming up with them 5man for like 10 games.

Keep defending her on a Tibetan tapestry forum, Anon. I'm sure she'll hear you somewhere and will happily fuck you as a reward.
>>

It's not that popular but it's fun compared to other mobas since the games are shorter and there's not too much depth and silly shit.

Pretty easy to find matches in a dead game. Takes me about the same amount of time it does to find a Dota 2 match.

>>333392517
That looks worse.

When I played this last time I loved to take the hunt on illidan and just run around screaming about how people need to feel the hatred of 10000 years and assasinsting squishes

It was pretty damn fun

I was really bored one day and I watched a game of this on stream.

It was literally fucking painful.

For quick matches, it does take about the same time to find as a non-ranked dota match. Difference is that there are many more idiots in HotS (or their idiocy is worse as they're making dumb mistakes in such an easy game).

Why
>>
>>333388639
Best graphics of all the mobashit desu.

But the gameplay feels incredibly basic, like every match just ends up playing out the same.

If they didn't charge for the characters I'd probably have played it more but feels fucking pointless when I have to play the free characters for months to get to keep one character.

I have so much regret wasting $50 on this game in the first two weeks my friends and I played. We had quit League for over a year, then played this.

After a week my friends started playing league just to "scratch the itch". Then after another week all 9 of them dropped heroes to go play league again.

So fucking dumb.
>>
They're at least trying to be more original with the new heroes and how they play. Greymane is fucking great. Tracer looks like she runs and guns, which will be interesting.

Single queuing ranked will put you in MMR hell, at least in Europe. It is especially bad on weekends when the concentration of Russians and 12 year old is the highest.

Post lvl10 is all about teamfights, if you end up in a team with only one unresponsive or feeding turd, you've already lost.
>>
>>333388639
my only issues are the lack of characters that /should/ be in there as opposed to who is in there (tracer? really?) and the horrid matchmaking system. It is good in concept, but horrid in exicution.

I feel it needs to be like other mobas and just search for 4 other players and when your in, chose your characters. As it stands, ive had to many games with 3-4 supports and either a single tank/DPS while the enemy team had 1 support, 3 DPS and 1 tank.
>>
Games pretty dead (takes about 5-6 minutes to get into a quick match) and matchmaking is legitimately some of the worst I've ever seen where you'd get matched against a team with a support when you don't have a support etc.

Shame because there's actually a good game here.
>>
>>333390918
>a deals a deal
>>
>>333394317
Sounds like your region is shit, my queues are about 1-2 minutes and I'm never been put against a team with a support when my team doesn't or vice versa.
