Still funny to me that blizz landed on a name for their moba with the same acronym as the one they were using for their rts (at the time Heart Of The Swarm was the latest SC2 expansion)

anime is good but code vein might not be because it's by the same team as god eater and they're bad at making combat satisfying based on what everyone says about those games

Dark Souls doesn't have the "Anime" tag in Steam. Pretty sure that settles it

It does have the "Dark", "Fantasy" and "Dark Fantasy" tags, which is good

Just as with all forms of media, 90% of it is poo poo and it's not fair imo to base your opinion of the good 10% on the bad 90%

I grew up playing JRPGs but never really got into anime like my friends did. I often found the violence to be offputting and weird, and that's the kind they were really into.

Everything about the combat shown in the trailer backs this post up. Though Imo the anime faces surrounded by dark and grungy armor is a cool art direction I wouldn't think Id like. It's really unsettling.


Weighing in on the Heroes of the Storm chat. I can see that it's well made and pretty, and imho it could probably be a good and fun game assuming you've never played Dota2 or Smite. The reason why is that those games require more skill and map awareness and a more rewarding for it, so HotS will stimulate your brain less and reward you less.

It's kind of a crapshoot depending on if you play LoL. If you're bad at league, i could see someone thinking HotS is boring. But if you're good at league I could see the opposite since as you go up in League the builds and lanes and heroes become more static, something Riot literally enforces.

Tldr if you play a good Moba, HotS is bad. If you play a similar babby's first Moba it depends on what you like. If youve never played a Moba it's probably fun with its low time commitment a la fps matches.

As someone who doesn't really do mobas I started out enjoying HotS because it was a lot faster than League which I had also tried, but by the time I was done winning to get the genji skin in overwatch it was just dull as all hell, I dunno.

Instead of accepting your own shortcomings for losing you can now blame four other people, in additional to the usual mainstays of imbalanced maps + heroes.
