Bloodline champion had lot more different core gameplay mecanic but was never consider a next gen moba. And can someone please tell how removing last hit will solve toxicity ? lol. If I play with someone who cant last hit, I tell myself, he's new and try to cut him some slack. Most toxicity come from stupidity in general (stupid play, stupid comment, etc.) and I dont see at all how "we ll remove last hit and ward mecanic so teh game isn't toxic anymore". This only tell me these people, even if its their 2nd game in the genre, still aren't sure how to deal with this. As far as I can tell you just randomly throw out the term "toxic" and then suggest your design principles lower "toxicity" with no real explanation. This is just how you design a MOBA in 2013 Oh my god, I just read that "stealth is burden of knowledge" quote by the designer. Please let this be an elaborate prank | ||

Please let this be an elaborate prank If i understand it correctly , it will be a blur on the screen ? like a DT or a banshee ? if that is the case , yet another WTF !!!!! and why even have stealth in the game ???? and dont forget that the warding mechanic is gone ( as mentioned in the videos ) , but I'm not sure if that includes revelation wards , or dust of appearance. | ||

Anyway, I don't have high hopes for this game. I have played HoN with varying activity ever since the beta, and S2 really is a clueless company when it comes to design and balance. The only reason HoN was even halfway decent is because it began as a carbon copy of DotA. I do not trust S2 to add strategical depth to the genre, and from the sounds of the trailer, it seems they aren't trying to. | ||

Why are they so concentrated on advertising this game as "more than meets the eye"? --or that they acknowledge their game is in a fine little niche of its own, but it's worth giving a try anyway? They have their goals but it all seems a bit redundant if you ask me and if i were a producer i would let the gameplay do most of the presenting/talking. | ||

No, I don't get your point because there is none to be made. It is also not a matter of "Cloning". Dota was created because they were inspired to create it because of AoS. People become inspired by what they see and or play and thus create something bigger and better. Who is to say without AoS that Dota would even exist? AoS was the stepping stone for Dota. That is all that matters. | ||

It means the game that another most closely resembles/is trying to imitate. None of these games are trying to imitate AoS, because AoS was not a fully fleshed out game. HoN is clearly a DotA clone and not an AoS clone. LoL more closely resembles DotA than AoS, though I wouldn't call it a clone of anything. DotA was originally an AoS clone, but now, the modern generation is building upon what DotA has done since then. | ||

Also if you make games too casual, they become boring instead. | ||
