I thought he was quite well known, having been both a banling and the writer of some very interesting articles on SC2's design and how maps with "fewer resources per base" could change gameplay... Sad that that project never got more testing by the way. On August 07 2013 01:12 packrat386 wrote: I would like to see this so much. Also I never knew so many people were so opposed to dota content. I don't personally think that the quality of the SC2 content has gone down as a result, and if you don't like it then don't read it. I don't understand why people have to be so aggressive -_- It's hilarious to see imo, because it's kinda like hardcore BW fans shitting on SC2 (they love to complain about persecution and grumpy old men), except these kids have little merit to their claims, what with comparing games of different genres and all.  | ||

Sad that that project never got more testing by the way. I dunno. Most of those posts came across very much as "I miss BW". It happened to come at a time when a lot of people were fed up about balance, but I think the recent success of HotS shows that that kind of major redesign probably isn't needed. | ||

People need to understand that it's about the design philosophy and not the game you're trying to emulate. Or indeed about trying to emulate any game in the first place. Brood War just happens to be the best and easiest to understand example because it's something that most of us have played and watched extensively. | ||

TL will have a metldown. I have played a match of DOTA 2 ever, and I have to say Beyond the Summit has impressed me, as has Tobiwan Kenobi with how they cast those games. I still have no idea what a ton of the items do, but there is so much going on it is crazy. Let the purists cool their jets, Dota is growing on me and it seems a fair few SC2 players as well. Shame from what I saw of Liquid'Dota they didn't seem to be up to snuff. | ||

TL will have a metldown. I am with you lichter, I am with you. I see a strong correlation between the Dota 2 haters and the whiniest members of the SC2 community. The most refreshing part of Dota 2 on TL is the lack of whine and people just wanting to play the game and not argue about stupid shit they can't change, like Visas, event dates, balance and if there are enough Koreans for them to watch. It is a majestic place. | ||

Its even more amazing that when get shouted down by people telling them stop bitching and not read it, they become the guy from Monty Python yelling "I'm being repressed! I'm being repressed!". I like it when they demand I apologize to them for devaluing their opinion. | ||

User was temp banned for this post. And then: Decendos was just temp banned for 1 week by Teoita. That account was created on 2011-08-26 22:14:46 and had 1110 posts. Reason: You have a history of terrible posts full of balance whining. If you don't stop the bans will just keep getting longer. Learning is hard, but a fun and funny process. | ||

F.O.A.D. was just temp banned for 2 days by JBright. That account was created on 2013-07-11 08:47:21 and had 74 posts. Reason: Oh look, another balance whine post. How surprising. I like how this account survived, while its written out version would probably not have been able to reach 10 posts. | ||
