DotA: Fun as hell to watch, infuriating to play.

Americans and Chinese dominate DotA. It's not the microfest SC is.

Ah, I've never played Dota. Played LoL casually because one of my friends played it, they're pretty similar right?

DotA is much more vicious than LoL. Less survivability, high dependence on team strategy and twitch reflex.

Edit: Also more frustrating. Very small mistakes can lose games almost instantly and the horrible playerbase will make you aware of your mistakes (whether real or perceived) very quickly. Where LoL games end in like 12/11 decisions, DotA games turn into curbstomps very quickly if someone starts to snowball.

I played Last of Us all weekend... excellent excellent excellent game!

b1adesofcha0s · 08-11-2013, 06:06 PM

I still gotta wait till Tuesday to start playing it, but I have watched 1.5 seasons of Dexter this weekend so far :|

eastwest2300 · 08-11-2013, 06:14 PM

Its a good game bro, I think Im only half way through..

eastwest2300 · 08-11-2013, 06:17 PM

I tell you this, to finish this game, you're gonna have to earn it, you're probably thinking what does that mean? well.. when you start getting into it, you'll see what I mean. I'll just say this, finishing this game, it aint gonna come easy..

b1adesofcha0s · 08-11-2013, 06:39 PM

Meh I've beat difficult games before, I'm not worried.

eastwest2300 · 08-11-2013, 07:59 PM

Its not too difficult (yet, I havent finished it yet).. but it can be a little frustrating.. you'll see.

Play it on Survivor your first time through and you'll hate the world.

eastwest2300 · 08-12-2013, 09:20 AM

As much as I would love to try that I do have a bunch of other games to get through in a limited time. I'm actually thinking about waiting to play last of us until I finish watching Dexter. I've got like 2 seasons left and that show is pretty damn addicting.

eastwest2300 · 08-12-2013, 09:36 AM

Dude, are you serious bro?

b1adesofcha0s · 08-12-2013, 10:37 AM

Maybe you should try watching Dexter. I ended up watching 2 full seasons of it this past weekend. That show is awesome.
