So, anybody else play this?
Convenient that it runs fine on every computer that I own.
My username is "Lord Vagabob" , add me up for a game.
EDIT: DOTA2 keys all gone.

I dunno what the big deal is, these games are usually over-run with Beiltanman's and **** RTS gimmicks.

I prefer Dota 2, but that's because that's where I learned how to play the game I guess.

I got a copy of Viking the other day. I'm looking at the game thinking: "This would be SO great if only they would..." and this huge list of things that would make this game epic came to me.
But, 45 mins later, I was late for work and still playing.

pretty sure that viking game was released on consoles in 2007 and just now made it onto PC - still seems to a lotta love for its simple gameplay and creative assembly are great devs

Viking, as in Asgard? I bought it for my PS3 for $20. Looked like some brainless fun, maybe for an afternoon throwing back coldies.

Dota 2 is where it's at... League of Legends is a simplified noob version.

Between LoL, Dota2 and HoN, my understanding is that HoN shares the least amount of development team experience from the original mod. It also has the fewest players. Dota2 is steam run (i.e. little more painful) and the last time I tried to play it I needed a beta key or ****, haven't tried again since. LoL has the most players and seems to be the most accessible to me, so I'm playing that for now. Also I spent $5 to buy a skin for my Champion so I'm pretty heavily committed at this point.

You kill things to increase the size of your army, which allows you to attack and kill more things, which increases the size of your army... Then, in a twist, you take that army and attack MORE things, which in...

So is DOTA2 still on invite basis? Anybody want to send me one? Otherwise I'm still LoL'ing it up. If any newbies want to join in just use my referral code and then add me on friends. I'm finding it pretty fun but its exponentially better when you don't have **** as teammates.

"I have to be honest with you, Mr Vagabob. Your CV doesn't reflect the kind of education we need a person to have to become the dilpomatic envoy to those island nations where... As you wrote here... 'All the ***** wear no clothes and have skin the colour of well cooked chicken"... I think we're going to go in another direction."
"I once won an award for being a good sport in an online game..."

"It's right there."
"Holy **** bags. You, sir, are hired!"

If they have any doubt I'll bring up my leadership experience running clans in CS, DoD and TF2.
The headhunters should be ringing me any day now.

The pre-game chat of every other game now starts with 'how you get yellow thing next to your name' All hail Lord Vagabob, Great Leader of the League of Legends: Helm sees all, know that and be judged.
