I almost made a comic about the new Dota patch, but I feel you guys would eat me alive if I delayed the conclusion of this arc.
Still, the Dota world got turned upside down. That's the kind of change you can only make if your game has super solid foundations and while lots of stuff changed, the game feels incredibly familiar.
Imagine TF2 vanilla and suddenly Valve added 6 weapons to every classes , plus new maps and some balance changes, that's basically what happened to dota.
I may even give it a try, though to be honest the community is still probably the same and more importantly, the time commitment is still a huge issue for me.
Still, if you wanted to go back to Dota, there is no better moment than now.
