Yes of course, as to any DotA fan I'd rather move forward and start playing DotA2, but since I didn't had any chance to get into the beta or don't even cover the system requirements, I'd prefer use this for now to at least have a look on the UI.
Truly, not quite the same, as in DotA2 there are quite a lot of changes regarding the entire gameplay, but at least allows me to enjoy the new heroes sounds, models and of course, the very well made terrain.
I'm not advertising it in any kind of way - I only posted this because I rather seemed like nobody even knew it existed.
