Do you even enjoy Dota? in General Discussion
Fuzzyfoot

    So I've played about 2500 games, learned way too much about dota.... but just curious on people's thoughts.

    Are there people on the fence about quitting or cutting game time down dramatically?

    For me it's not the game mechanics, or the game quality.... I am just really getting sick of the people that actually play dota. The community is just..... pathetic.

    From team mates calling eachother fa**ots, people raging at eachother, people blaming eachother, team mates not working together and playing solo farmville 2015... Or team mates that don't pay attention and seem oblivious to what's going on....

    And then the other flip coin, what ever happened to respect? Sometimes your team gets stomped, then someone on the other team says something like "ez bot" or "ez game" and proceeds to talk shit about how massively awesome their dota penis is and how tiny yours is.

    Not much sportsmanship in dota, very little respect for fellow human beings, and it's just.... sooo..... negative..... The game itself is fun, but it's like hanging out with assholes 24/7. Very very very rarely, do you have a fun game, where after said fun game you think to yourself "those guys were awesome!" Or "I really liked that guy!"

    I mean, case in point.... This is a thread about how the community is just so deplorable that I'm pretty much done interacting with it, and I bet at least 50% of the comments that will follow will be immature, rude, and just generally assholish in nature instead of having some semblance of healthy, intelligent, conversation with depth.

    Inc mind numbingly egocentric asshole troll comments!

          he says he learned too much.

          Ahahahh wtf!!!

          I can tell you now, YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW HALF OF DOTA, heck not even 10%. You're just pathetic and refuse to acknowledge you're trash and it doesn't matter what your teammates do or how they play, it all comes down to what you can do and since you know shit you end up losing like shit.

            Russian letters man, is your penis actually that small? Judging from the way you evaluate people, you might be a contender for a worlds smallest record.

              The guy has a point, but if u would like all only that "good" and friendly stuff, where people love each other, then just go play LOL. People there are friendly, but most good Dota players will probably confirm you - League of lesbians is a game for small children with authism. After u played Dota, you cant go play LOL. Btw - a smart man once said - be the change u want to see in the world. Dont be a pathetic small man that just blames everyone else.

                    People in Perfect World server are pretty nice. I remember US East and SEA having people with more vocal complaints, but not to the extent OP is describing. Maybe you are inciting too many flames? I generally experience very little flames, and I'm quite a vocal person to point out ally mistakes (politely).

                            I know nothing about dota.

                            That's why I'm able to enjoy it.

                              Make love, not flame

                                OP, you are right.

                                If someone wants kind teammates, he needs to find a team. Though the community isn't such a cancer like DotA 1 Garena...LP, reports, MMR all helps.

                                  Dota gets boring quickly for me, so i spend some time without playing at all.

                                  I think i only have fun when i play tinker.

                                            All these replies just confirms what I was trying to say. People sh**ting on other people, huge ego's, nothing really positive to say at all.

                                            and I *have* learned too much about dota, it's just a video game and I know entirely more than I should for something that I should just be doing for fun. I don't see how being condescending towards this account being mid 3k's has anything to do with it. Should I log out and repost with the account where I tryhard? I mostly play with friends on this one, when I'm at work with 150+ ping, or when I'm shit faced.

                                            But once again, who cares, this thread isn't about skill level, it's about how shi**y people are. Maybe it's just a generational thing, maybe it's cool to be disrespectful and rude to random strangers on the interwebs now. I'm just tired of it.

                                            Sure you get to have the occasional good game, with good team mates, but it feels like 20% of the time.... 40% are just mediocre, and 40% of the games are just pure cancer.

I know that sounds fucking retarded since all video games are just entertainment and a way to waste free time but I have a lot of steam games and I feel a weird sense of accomplishment when I finish them, similar to finishing a good book. While dota is fun and addictive and a fine way to spend an afternoon it has no "end" like other finite games to give that same satisfaction.

The fact most players believe everyone else to be worse than themselves always acting up "if you want to win let me mid" or when you die it's gg because YOU are the most important person and YOU are going to win this game. Or the popular misconception that support is the noob role(even tho it requires more skill to sup rather than carry) and ofc you are better than everyone so you won't play support.

                                                                                            I hate it when guys trying to stall the game, so that they can stomp the enemy a little bit longer. No sportmanships. The only advice i can give you is completetly turn the Chat off - It's only annoying. If you are somewhat decent, you don't need the Chat at all.

                                                                                            And remember haters gonna hate.
