I've never really had anyone coherently explain to me what it is about MOBAs that is enjoyable.

Do you find RTSs fun? It's like the beginner version of one of those. But the trade off for not having to control anything is that most of the game is obviously out of your control.

I guess that's why I find it so baffling that I can't figure out what's supposed to be fun about them, because I really like RTS campaign modes. I even like SC2's campaign, though the Human part is way too basic and boring for way too long. Zerg and Protoss campaigns are super fun though still not as fun as Frozen Throne's campaign

Loads of people don't have either the coordination or the mental capacity to play those games. DotA2 has a feature that will let you not just spectate a player in a game, but straight up see their screen/where they are looking/where their mouse is/etc. and it doesn't take long at all to see people that can't even control the camera + 1 unit.

The difference is that the awful behavior in MOBAs is far more frequent than in other games. You get at least one awful person in like every game.

That sounds way lower than expected to be honest. Like what percent of the population is truly awful? Gotta be like high 60%'s at least.


But maybe there's just so much more downtime that it's easier to show it than say in a fighting game or whatever.

One of the Call of Duties was on it right? And they had to refund everyone because like a dozen people bought it and that's obviously not going to work for a multiplayer game.

Wow I thought the reviews calling Prey 2017 "Bioshock IN SPACE" meant that it was going to be like...you know...Bioshock. Like it didn't have skills or inventory management or crafting or anything like that so it would play like Bioshock and not System Shock.


Turns out those journalists might actually have some form of mental retardation and that's a little sad I guess, but I'm really enjoying System Shock 3.

The game's narrative trappings, especially the beginning, owe a lot to BioShock, even if the gameplay is very much System Shock

Why the gently caress would they compare it to a franchise that started in 1994, and hasn't had an entry since 18 years ago?

It doesn't matter how similar it is, they're going to compare it to something that is more recent in the public memory because it's loving marketing.


At least pretend reviewers aren't paid marketing
