Blizzard enters the money grab: Official Heroes Of The Storm thread

[itsyoung!!]

Game looks super simple. Can't think of any reason as to why you would play this over DOTA/LoL.

quicker matches, better graphics, better overall team fights/game play, harder for game to get out of control (because its based on team fights and not items)

Counter Strike was more simple than Unreal Tournament/Quake and crushed the buildings, I fully expect heroes of the storm to as well.

its gonna do numbers real quick off the fact that its a blizzard game

the simplicity is gonna give it a big userbase as well. depending on balance and esports promotion, it will give dota and lol a run for their money in terms of popularity.

I don't want quicker games, more teamfights, and more equal champions. I don't mind hour plus games with one champion on the other team being OP as fukk. I enjoy the laning phase and item customization. A lot of people like this shyt.

Anyway I haven't played the game so I'll reserve judgement for the time being. But honestly I can't see it taking over from DOTA/LoL, the MOBA market is pretty saturated already.

Honestly, the hype for the game right now is almost non-existent.

Then dont play it

Not every game has to be perfect for everyone or be exactly the same as other games. Stick to dota and LoL then, they have that already

Ima just say people said the same thing about WoW and MMOs too saying the market was already too saturated with Everquest, Dark Age of Camelot, Shadowbane, ULtima Online and Star Wars Galaxy. Saying WoW was too simple and easy compared to them too.

We seen how that ended up though

its tripled in viewers on twitch over the past month since you can buy your way in beta. It was in Alpha (swear general population in 2015 doesnt understand what this means) and recently just got into CLOSED beta.(can buy your way in for $40)


Once everyone can play expect it to do numbers.

Blizzard has never flopped. Ever. Even their worst game they ever released, Diablo 3, ended up being best selling game in the world past 2 years.

Who the fukk thought Blizzard would have the most popular CARD game in the world?

How can you ever bet against Blizzard

Not enough characters for me yet imo.

Plus the LoL characters are hitting Dougies, Snoop Dogg, Michael Jackson, Beyonce, and Aaliyah dances. The developers seem very down and not on some . This got my full cosign.

Chill dude, I'm just pointing out what you see as positives are entirely subjective to the rest of us.

Its currently listed 22 on Twitch. And that's with Grubby Da Gawd streaming.

And I'm not betting against Blizzard, I just don't expect it to over-take LoL/DOTA and I don't expect it to be in anyway popular outside of the West.

Maybe you're right dude, we'll see. I'll definitely play the game when I can.
