I have. I've sunken countless hours into DOTA and LoL. Didnt really find them all too appealing after a couple dozen hours with each.

Now bring it to PC without GFWL or any other successor that MS might have planned.

Techincally, but MOBA's got a lot of random hype almost instantly after being spun off the RTS genre. I think it has a lot to do with the popularity of LoL and the fact that it's a free game that works on just about any computer you throw at it.

And that is my big issue with MOBAs a lot of people are saying its pick up and play and to an extent its not. It requires a lot of learning. As far as mastery though it it very highly Dependant on the team that's being played with.

I dont hate LoL or Dota, theyre just not for me.

Thats my my issue with MOBAs as well. Theyre dreadfully painful for me to watch. Smite I'll never be able to play because I don't own any consoles anymore, but hearing that it has some similarities to unreal is pretty cool (spent too many hours playing that game lol)

For me it was about a month as well

I could see that, but you can also experience high level competition from both genres you described too. Both communities are still going strong, I guess the only caveat being that a lot of high level play is done in person in the FGC.

Sounds like a fighting game to me lol.

Yeah, also played 2 of the biggest MOBA's and still didn't see the big deal with it.

The thing is that I spent a good 30+hrs playing LoL and Dota with people I know and did not enjoy it in the least. It felt like a stripped down RTS with a higher than normal learning curve. I guess it isn't the genre for me.

You perfectly described a fighting game lol.

Still don't understand what the big deal is with MOBA's.

Never realized games actually had bullets and arrows fall down when shot into the sky.

Well, Sony is putting all their money into Playstation since its the only other profitable branch of their business. They need to stop making ridiculous products and start working on fixing their ten yr deficit. To be honest though, I don't think that it's going to happen at this point.

I need to meet her. lol

These all remind me of typical retail stories with the exception of the last one.

Well its Sony as a whole, and it goes much deeper than DRM. Look at Sony's XQD memory cards, they're prohibitively expensive, even for pros in photography/video creation. That's why there's a fit thrown every time something proprietary from Sony shows up on non-Sony products (Nikon D4).

Shep, Naruto NS3 on amazon is back to $30

Proprietary cards need to disappear. No reason to have them anymore and theyre too expensive.

Finally. A game with a reasonable recommended spec list.
