"I don't think Dota 2 gets released as soon as it did and with as much support without LoL. Lol made MOBAs the top computer game, not just the top competitive game."
Wrong.
Dota 2 was the result of IceFrog's Defense of the Ancients. It has always been waiting for a good studio and was only when Valve offered that…

And this is just so that everyone interested should know, there is bad blood between Dota and LoL and it is part of its history. For those who tried to destroy it, and those who wanted to keep it alive.
No other game has ever been so heavily protected by its community. The more than ten million dollar prize pool…
Which only cemented the fact that it was Dota that helped LoL since Guinsoo was a Dota developer first before being part of LoL.
That's like saying your father was born because you existed.
If LoL did not exist, Dota 2 would still be the same game.
Guinsoo did not recruit Ice Frog nor was he the one who united all the…

"they don't really mention how games like League of Legends and Heroes of Newerth also helped put MOBAs on the map"
LoL had nothing to do with Dota or Dota 2's success. Riot tries everything in their power to destroy the original and its current iteration. Read up on your Dota history Nathan. There is a reason that…
Marine seems like a boring name.
He should name his baby after something that evokes feelings of fun and relaxation like "Park". Or how about a more sciencey and outer spacey name like "Moon".
Gotta be more creative than "Marine" y'know.
At least it's cheaper than some of the most expensive Dota 2 items out there.
Lol's true flaw is the inability to counterpick the enemy's hero selection.
It does not matter what Origin has over Steam. The corporation behind Origin is EA and EA does not treat their customers like people. The low userbase of Origin guarantees a smoother service.
Whatever features Steam has, it has a goal of getting more stuff to the customers. Origin is never overloaded with purchase…
Just because Broodmother uses here motherhood as a theme does not mean it's sexualized. It is gender specific. Sexualized no. You don't get the point and you have no right to shut someone up.
The only sexualized character in Dota 2 is Queen of Pain which is rationally based on a Succubus and Sadomasochism. Everyone…
Broodmother is a female giant spider. Her clone on LoL has tits. Any female character in LoL is not a female main character like in Okami (Ookami must be instant noodles).
Brienne of Tarth in Game of Thrones is the way a female knight should look like. Armor with breasts is sexualized since that aesthetic would be a…
The first two are non-humanoid creatures. It does not matter in the boobs and asses department that they are female. Your other character is a chibi character. It may not be boobs and ass but it's far from being creative in representing females. The other two characters are boobs and ass despite the fact that one…
Nah, LoL is definitely generic.
Notice how the video makes fun of the one adult female character with a flat chest as unique for being so.
Because League is a clone of Dota. They could not even create a new map as successful as the Dota map. LoL is also built on the ashes of a game they went out to destroy and erase from gaming history.
MOBA was created to detach their game from a similar sounding genre which is DOTA. LoL's designer was not even the…
If you seriously think that a donkey with wings is more cartoony than this crap found in LoL then you're simply talking out of your preference.
And yes that's Orko from the original He-Man. That's how stupid the creeps look in LoL.
As an Asian person living in Asia, I find it more newsworthy that Americans have a soda serving size of 3.7 liters! That's enough soda to serve two small families.
If the human mouth could be any bigger, it would have been likely that people would be using shovels instead of spoons to shove things down their mouths.
I'm…
He can be as silly as he wants. There's obviously a market for him.
What's really sad is the extremely low standard of entertainment and minimum talent required by the new generation of internet users.
I used to be a class clown acting like an idiot for everyone to laugh at. This is the equivalent of the whole class…
I'm with you with wanting to have everything in one library dude. Let's hope this resolves itself in a way that everyone benefits. I'm hoping that Steam Machines turns out a de facto standard that brings in everyone.
It might not look like much right now but I have faith that hard work and perseverance from Valve…
