I change my mind making people unreasonably angry by calling myself "Can Drake Get Pregnant" on steam and pretending I'm 21 Savage desperately asking people if Drake can sue me for the unwanted child is great, even more so if I can say "Drake's my babymama" when I win and "I still won" when I lose. I only go mid and never gank.
If you are getting into a geopolitics degree, this is the game for you. You WILL interact with people across the world. You will NEED to make peace with both sides you WILL need to keep the world of DOTA 2 together. You WILL be in a meeting with braindead neets, neonazis, militia, and so on for atleast ONE HOUR. As a TECHIES main I also make us all stay in the game FOR ANOTHER HOUR. YOU CHOOSE THE PATH: WILL YOU BECOME CLOSER WITH THOSE AROUND YOU? OR WILL YOU DESTROY ALL IN YOUR PATH?
i suck fucking shit at this game. teenagers from both sides of the atlantic constantly hurl homophobic slurs my way.
but you can theoretically do anything you want with any hero and once upon a time when a game went on too long the map would literally start to break and you'd get random particle effects flying around for some reason.
5 stars

A game so impossibly perfect and all-encompassing that you shouldn't play it. Each game is an endless cascade of questions, both macro and intensely micro, each question morphing second by second as the nine other players start to try to answer their own questions, an endless, fractal, entrancing nightmare.
My first ever Steam game, you had to purchase a game on steam to be able to play this game back in the day. My friend purchased me Lego Jurassic World 2016, 24th December, just to play Dota 2
This game would be a 1/10 without Tiny, the brother goes through the whole cycle of puberty within one match

This is the only MOBA I've ever enjoyed. None of the others are this chaotic or have this much punk energy behind every patch, where half the playerbase routinely wonders every few months just what the fuck happens in Icefrog's head and how he's come to ruin the game for the 5th time this year. No rating can do this any justice. It is one of the few games on this site where any rating can theoretically and justifiably apply to it (as reflected in the distribution). Methodical and technical, yet every game is at the whims of the very toxic people you've been queued with (the most I've seen from any playerbase). You'll spend 200 hours learning the game (yes), and for what? Someone on your team to decide that you're now playing 6v4 out of the kindness of their heart? You're always the 4, of course.
The highest highs and lowest lows. Play this long enough, and you'll eventually get a really tense 2 hour game that tells a fucking award-winning story through the many coincidences that happened to align. Play it with a friend group, and you'll all be constantly quoting this one guy from this one game 4 years ago who said this one ridiculous thing. And yet for every moment like that, you'll have 10 more games where nothing seems to go right. You have to play this with friends to opt out of some of those lows.
Maybe I'm rating this from the perspective of a brainwashed cultist. Maybe I went too low and it truly is uncontainable kino. I put 1700 hours into this before I realised I needed to do something with my life. Truthfully I still haven't done whatever that thing was meant to be, and I also miss the feeling of being flamed by Russians from back when I actively played in 2014.
The abyss stares back.
