That's what they did before making HoN. It didn't work out so well.

I don't know anything about their finances, but S2 started out making RTS games. The games were practically unplayable WC3 clones. That's one reason why I'm skeptical of their ability to design anything original. | ||

S2 only has the following titles : Savage: The Battle for Newerth (2003) (Windows, Macintosh, Linux) Savage 2: A Tortured Soul (2008) (Windows, Macintosh, Linux) Heroes of Newerth (2010) (Windows, Macintosh, Linux) Savage is no way near a wc3 clone , so what game are you talking about ? | ||

The first titles that S2 created were terrible RTS games. That's what S2 was founded on before they got ahold of HoN and became a real company. It's not exactly surprising that these games are no longer supported, since nobody played them, is it? They may have been created before or after the original Savage, I don't know. Either way, vaporware. | ||

I honestly think you are mistaking them for someone else, if not, please provide a source, because you made me Google and nothing seems to indicate that you are correct. | ||

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. Yes, I know what clone means but thank you for the unneeded explanation. Also, you clearly didn't get what I was saying. | ||

Also if you think that after developping S1&2 and HoN they don't have any competent artists and programmers you are clueless. | ||

Maybe someone is mistaking the Commander view in Savage for WC3? I mean I guess it sort of kind of looks similar. However only 1 player on either team was a commander, they played the game like a RTS spending the money and building structures. Everyone else on the teams were playing a FPS where they were the "units" going around and gathering or killing. It certainly was nothing like WC3 or any other game for that matter. | ||
