Dota gives you a lot of reason to play due to the depth and complexity of the game. Each game is unique and interesting. You have to understand that it's a team game, and the issues with team games will come from it. Toxicity will happen, losing cause of teammates will happen. Regardless, it's the best moba experience.

Absolutely awful experience to play on kbm. Don't be fooled by it saying it has kbm support, it really doesn't. Menus are awful, UI is awful, and the graphics were bad enough that looking out in the ocean with the sun made my eyes hurt. I spent 2 hours trying to make the controls work. It was a nightmare.

So many things to say about this game.
First of all, the graphics are so attractive and crisp. It really makes you want to play the game.
About gameplay, the game really does feel like a warzone. A few problems I had were the characters running around the battlefield despite not really doing anything. They just cause a distraction and kill immersion, despite trying to do the opposite.
A lot of maps are pretty one-sided and basically come down to the snipers and heroes. Some heroes can just carry the team, so I guess the game has high skill cap even though being marketed so casually that they don't even have a lobby browser or ranked mode.
Sniping is extremely tedious because everyone just hides behind obstacles and heals back up. The healing mechanisms are just really annoying for the heroes as well.
The game got major flak for its monetization system, but the monetization system is good now. Barely anything to spend money on, and none of it is p2w. You can earn everything really easily.
Space battles are really fun and the controls feel surprisingly good even on kbm.
However, the worst part of the game is that you literally can't play it sometimes. Queing up as a group will force you into a new lobby where nobody joins and game doesn't start. Not sure if it's because the game is so dead or the matchmaking system is so completely fucked. Even solo, you will have problems a lot of the time. To compound the issue, you're forced to use Origin to play the game, and Origin is a piece of shit.
Sad to see a potentially great game be ruined for such stupid reasons.

Such an overrated game.
The graphics are pretty great.
Controls are pretty clunky sometimes.
Dialogue and story is just really uninteresting to me. Lore feels like generic fantasy mixed with European folklore. Nothing really original or inventive.
Combat is literally just dodging and using Quen.
Character customization is extremely limited.
Development of different professions is cut off super early and then doesn't even get expanded in later expansions.
No reason to collect anything. Just a bunch of random items that have nothing to them.
On the surface, it's a great game, but once you think about it there's nothing really to it. It's a big game that kind of falls over itself.
