I used to love getting some friends together to run a DotA map. Like Boner says, even though it's technically a mod for WCIII, the champion-centric combat means you don't have to micromanage everything, and you get faster gameplay. It can be a ton of fun. There's a stand-alone DotA II that should be out by sometime next year (not being developed by Blizzard), I think. A lot of folks are really excited about it.
3rick Reviewed by 3rick on . DOTA (Defense of the Ancients) Hey are there any people out there that play this game? I just tried Warcraft DOTA yesterday and have to say I don't get what's so great about it. I don't understand why someone wouldn't just want to play a regular game. So, does anybody else play this game? What's the appeal? Maybe I don't like it because I'm not good at it and don't understand all of the rules and what not... Rating: 5
