SC2 !
Trying to get into Dota2 but it's my first MOBA and man.. the metagame to absorb lol..
moba's aren't that hard.. I've tried to get into SC2, and man, that is some game than needs (IMO) real work to get into (i mean, from the single player into the online mode there's like billions of things you need to cram into your head to be average ).
Map control and a balanced team(1 or 2 carries, 1 tank, 1 support 1 jungler or 2 supports. that's like 80% of the lineups) is what you need in DotA2!
You just need a team that doesn't suck haha.
Dota's actually quite difficult on a higher level with capt's mode - when you're not playing against pubs.
I think that's where more of the game's dynamics tend to shine.
Also nobody really plays as a jungler - that's just in pubs.
Its way too easy to gank and shut down a jungler. Dedicated junglers are practically free gold and kills.
Also two supports always.
I think you haven't played dota until you've actually found a good team that doesnt fail at trilaning (among other things) and rotates properly.
Started playing deus ex: human revolution director's cut because I didn't play the play original human revolution.
You lucked out, it's a good game, but the boss fights in the original were annoying. Supposedly directors cut fixes that issue.
Just beat Barrett a few days ago. I can still see what you mean. They just added an extra room with turrets that you can hack or something.
Anyways, I didn't upgrade any of my combat augments (because I don't engage in direct combat) and I didn't upgrade my stealth augments either and I didn't choose the turret override augment ... so yea the boss battle felt very unnatural and stupid.
I actually crawled into a vent which led into another room. Turns out the only way out of this room is through that same vent because the door control actually has to be hacked from another terminal located on the second floor ... great because now I'm stuck with Barrett on the other side. Anyways, I just took pot shots at Barrett with my shotgun and he eventually killed himself with grenades.
Now I pretty much lost interest in this game again.
Some parts of this game just aren't coming together for me to bring out the Deus ex experience.
