Hypothesis: I think I don't have all that much interest in MOBAs... But maybe it's just because the on-ramp to learn Dota or LoL is so time-consuming and fraught with toxic jerks?
Experiment: Played a few hours of Pokemon Unite. Since Unite's aim is to condense down the mechanics of a MOBA to something that's simple to pick-up-and-play on the Switch, it seems like it'd be a good way in.
Result: Ehhhh. Turns out I'm still not all that interested. I understand why I'm losing fights more often here than in League, but the fights themselves still feel unexciting compared to something more action-forward like Overwatch.
Conclusion: Oh well. I'm glad others are enjoying it, but there's 100 things on my backlog that I'd rather play.
