Been in Alpha a few months. Never been a MOBA player but would be fun to play with MP folks.

I've been in the tech alpha for a bit now as well though I haven't played much. If more and more people are joining though I'd definitely play more. MOBA's with friends is always better!

I've also been in the alpha for a while and I've played it off and on. I'm not a huge MOBA guy, but the two games I've found most playable are Smite and HotS. HotS has been the only top down perspective MOBA I've actually felt like I was able to play in any decent capacity. So yeah, if we get enough people playing we should totally have a HotS game night.

Regalis (who joined us in FFXIV the first time) got a Beta key or so, and gave me one. It's pretty good. It's a rip off of DOTA, in the same way that Warhammer was a rip off of Warcraft. By that I mean that it is not a rip off, and is, in fact, made by the creators the original. You have many of the heroes you had access to in Star/War Craft, as well as three named protagonists from Diablo 3. You get some antagonists from Blizzard's three big intellectual properties, as well as the Lost Vikings who are not dead but sleepeth.
It's a MOBA, but with a few differences.
1) It has characters that are already extant, and that hopefully you know or have heard of.
2) It has 7 different maps with unique mechanics for each map.
3) You have an account level and Hero level. You get perks for increasing each, from portraits to in-game currency. All heroes get one skin change and color palette shifts, as well as mounts, for increasing levels. You get3 free heroes, one for completing the tutorials, one at Account lvl. 12, and another at Account lvl. 15.
4) There are no item shops. You can still return to base to heal, or you can go partway back and drink from a healing fountain for health and magic regeneration over time.
5) Killing creeps on the map either gets you some secondary resource towards the maps secondary objectives, or grants you a mercenary group that attacks through the nearest lane.
6) You start with all 3 of your skills, and gain traits that ad new skills or passive effects as your team levels up.
7) You level up as a team, up to 20. No more worries about who gets last hit on minions or enemies.
8) It's a MOBA, and a Blizzard game. It's popular. There are already plenty of trolls who just discovered profanity, and gold sellers. Oh, joy.
Yes, everything in this room is edible, including me; but THAT is called CANNIBALISM, and is, in fact, frowned on in polite society.

I'd rather take a kick in the dick than play a MOBA.

Talk about a thread killer... the whole damn forum hasn't had a post in the 4 days since the one above. Sorry for being a dick.
