It’s just a proxy hate.

Just like crypto before that.

Or any other crazy bullshit the elite drops bags of money on instead of anything reasonable.

Where is dwm?

I bought HoN like two weeks before it went free, and I haven’t played much.

How was it more complicated?

League of Legends is a pet peeve of mine, since one bad person took down DotA forum, stole ideas from it, created LoL, and acted like a big shot. He wasn’t alone, but you know what I mean.

To this day I think that Blizzard hates esports, because they left DotA with 0 support, and only after many years of Dota 2 they created Heroes of the Storm, which was even more watered down than LoL.

And LoL is such a simple game, which is OK, but once you actually understand Dota, it doesn’t come anywhere close. It brought nothing innovative. Which is sad.

Source: I played hundreds of hours, and put hundreds of dollars into LoL back in the ~2010.

I am always suprised that people expected anything differently.

Epic was from the start doing things the wrong way, and I will not support any store that has exclusives.

Making a good gaming platform that could rival Steam would take A LOT of time and money and dare I say - no company is willing to lose that for a chance of one day perhaps being only slightly worse competitor that still can’t convince people to migrate.

It’s not a take, that was their actual reasoning behind it. Gabe knew Microsoft well, as a former employee.

I had a printer I could not in my life make work on a Windows PC (2017). Then I tried my Ubuntu laptop, no drivers installed, just worked.

Fuck Windows.

And I don’t mean this in any mean way, but how much propaganda did you learn to detect? Like understanding that the american dream is a propaganda?
