"Ah ghad, learn how to quote properly. Its hard to read what you're posting." Okay, I can use the [quote ] tags if you so insist, it's not like it's a timetaking thing.
So let me ask you a thing.
Why did you say that? That's just a filler thing which has nothing to do with anything. You ask about if I understand that you're talking about a portion of d2 instead of whole d2, but you don't even do anything with that information.
Since you're saying Dota 2 sucks then I assume you'd played and modded the game?
Hmm... So because I said "Dota 2 sucks", you assume I:
-played the game
-modded the game
That's a big assumption, you're even half right. Yes I've played a couple of Dota 2 matches with some dragon guy. I even played both matches to the end, even though I didn't like the balance theme the d2 team relies on. They have way less burst dmg involved, which is the case in LoL, as LoL relies on
perfect imbalance. So I kind of like the imbalance Riot uses to balance their game.
But no, I have not used any modding tool. Why would I, if I'm not into the game itself? I have not found a reason to quit wc3 modding. I still can get people to join my games on b.net, I have friends to play my maps on LAN with, for me wc3 is just good and the World Editor - modding tool is powerful enough for me. So because a) I dislike the game itself b) I have wc3 WE , I feel like I don't need to find any replacements. But I have tried C++, Java, Game Maker, Galaxy Editor and Age of Empires editor to make games with instead. AoE full-screen in-game editor was crappy, and the c++ is too timetaking just like java, even Galaxy editor is too timetaking. GM was fun, but it seems I've uninstalled it and I no longer remember GML. But yeah, if you are to say "you can't say WC3 WE is perfect for you if you even haven't tried other options", you're dead wrong. As D2 experimental development tools are only one option amongst the millions, the little chance of me actually having tried it is little to none, I don't know how one can assume I've tried it just because I've said "Dota 2 sucks". If you reference to the argument of yours "we're talking about dota 2 modding not dota 2 as whole", and you are to say "we were talking about d2 modding and you say 'dota 2 sucks' you obviously need to have tested the modding tool before you state so", well no, I don't need to have tested the tool to think dota 2 sucks. and in the end it's own opinion which games i prefer.
Oh you seemed to have added something to the original post:
Oh wait, you're blinded by hatred. sigh.
Well your argument is perfect if you had linked the
fanboy video, and said "you are fanboy of other company than valve and you can't agree if i say 'd2 is better', not even if i could scientifically prove it to you, so what's the reason to even try to explain it to you?". But I'm not fanboy of Heroes, LoL, HoN or Smite. I like playing LoL and I prefer it to D2, but I don't like it so much that I wouldn't consider to switching over to Dota 2. Atm Heroes seems stronger competitor tbh, as Dota 2 seems to have too deep learning curve.
Since its utterly pointless to tell you what the difference of playing and modding this game because it is already stamped in your brain that you hate this shit so just answer that and give us at least a point with weight.
I think this is a argument you had there:
There's a difference between modding dota 2 and playing it.
I can believe this. So I guess what you try to state is that because I said "dota 2 sucks", there is no way I could differentiate modding from the game. I might try the editor one day, but as I said above, I have not had any need to do so.
And sentence as a whole:
It's of no use to tell you the difference between playing D2 and modding it.
I think that what you try to say is that even though I'd dislike the game, I could still approve the modding of Dota 2, but as I've strongly stated that Dota 2 sucks, it's of no use to tell me that. I won't approve the D2 modding as I feel no need to, as WC3 WE is enough for me. The thing is,
I'm just going to quit hive if we make a step towards Dota 2 - oriented modding. I signed up here for Warcraft 3 modding, and I fear that WC3's role will fade away as the Dota 2 orientation would bring new users only interested in Dota 2 here. And as Dota 2 is alive and maybe even growing as a modding scene, and wc3 modding scene shrinking as it's very old game, Dota 2 might take over hive pretty easily. As I'm not interested in D2, I'll just quit.
Oh you continue it:
and give us at least a point with weight.
Hmm, well I think this post has one point, if that.
Of course technically you're right but I still cannot see that making a mod using Dota2 actually means that you're actually playing "dota 2" with those bitchy, whiny players.
I'm just going to insert a weirded out face here because I don't know what to think of that sentence:
o.o
We're obviously talking about modding and you come in saying Dota2 sucks. That comment completely stating that both gaming and modding sucks because it looks to me that you're talking about Dota2 as a whole. So of course I'll make assumptions.
For me modding is a part of Dota 2, just like playing it is. Yes I talk them as a whole, the dev tool offers no good to me, as I have no interested in the game, thus I have no interest in using the tool.
Same with your former post though, your post doesn't give valid arguments as to why we should not branch to Dota2 aside from saying that it sucks.
Well I have my point as clear as I can state it above in this post.
Isn't making a thread about Lol vs Dota2 with a poll with only Lol as your choice enough??! We get it already, you hate the damn thing!
I don't know if I hate Dota 2. Yes I said it sucks and I'll quit the site if we move towards it, and I still stand behind it, you could say I hate it at the moment. No preferral is eternal.
I'll bold out the text which has my most important message.
