Half-Life 2 is the shittiest RTS ever

DOTA is the worst FPS I've ever played [editline]9th May 2016[/editline] Uncharted 4 is the worst MOBA ever dude!!!!

[QUOTE=Catscratch;50286838]Overwatch isn't bad at all, but it's definitely only popular because of Blizzard's marketing. It's so.. average. Yeah the cast is diverse and it's been open beta on and off but it's just.. there's nothing special about it over other MOBAs like Battleborn, Paladins, etc.[/QUOTE] This is literally my favourite post on this forum.

Overwatch is the most decent game I've ever played

[QUOTE=AtomicSans;50286862]Did you just call Overwatch a moba[/QUOTE] Before Dota 2 was offically released I just thought moba was a catch-all term for multiplayer arena games including games like Unreal Tournament. Didn't help that I did play a Doom mod that had some Moba-like elements.

[QUOTE=AtomicSans;50287427]why the fuck does this exist[/QUOTE] Looks like a CoH mod.

[QUOTE=_Axel;50287711]Looks like a CoH mod.[/QUOTE] It's a source mod. It's actually supposed to not be that bad but I don't play RTS games so I wouldn't know

I still think we need a WH40K hockey game based on the Blood Bowl ruleset.

Fans silent or indifferent about the toxic ideologies amd other assorted bullshit that goes on in their fandoms or hobbies are just as bad as the toxic members. Toxicity pushes out the healthy members until nothing but a wasteland of assholes is left.

Being passionate is one of the most attractive qualities a person can have

Deadpool wasn't a very good movie

[QUOTE=jp_rsardeto;50289276]Deadpool wasn't a very good movie[/QUOTE] I watched it for the first time the other day and it was good, just not as good as people hyped it up to be, it had a few funny references in it but i thought it was going to be a lot funnier than it was. Also i thought the CGI for Colossus was pretty cheap for a marvel film.

I think we think Deadpool so great because it turned out above expectations considering how many ways it could go wrong. I still liked it a lot though. Hope Deadpool becomes a regular thing for Marvel movies.

[QUOTE=SuperDuprKyle;50286865]I think he did He also called Paladins a MOBA Cat scratch can you please learn what games you're talking about before saying the dumbest shit[/QUOTE] Definitively, they are MOBAs, yes. Each of these companies has even said they're MOBAs and advertised them as such. Also wow no need to get so heated. The thread is for unpopular opinions, and I know mine is one. I'm not saying it's bad, I just don't find it the best new game like everyone seems to herald it as.

I don't care that it's apparently projected that hispanics will become the majority race in the US in like 30 years. Whenever I see this talked about (maybe this is just cause I'm in texas) it seems like a lot of people are spooked by this and act like it's a bad thing for some unexplained reason, and I don't care. It will probably change nothing except now I'll be even more of a minority than I already am.

[QUOTE=kilerabv;50292437]Unpopular opinions, yes. Like you finding Overwatch average. Factually wrong statements, no. Like everything else you wrote.[/QUOTE] Nothing I said is factually wrong. Overwatch's massive popularity from advertisement is an opinion, which yes I get is super unpopular, same with me not thinking it's the best game ever.

League of Legends is the reason that MOBAs have a bad name/reputation

[QUOTE=Kljunas;50292316]If Overwatch is a MOBA then TF2 is a MOBA.[/QUOTE] overwatch is tf2 as a moba

But the only difference between Overwatch and TF2 is that Overwatch has cooldown/charge-based abilities instead of ammo-based abilities. Is this really what makes a MOBA? Hell TF2 even has some of those like the Jarate, Übercharge, etc.

[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;50292735]i'd say yes it's not much but you don't really need much imo the definition is already so vague. multiple classes, abilities with a cooldown and one ultimate skill are enough already[/QUOTE] You also need lanes, towers, creeps and a big ass target at the end of the lanes.

[QUOTE=kilerabv;50292748]You also need lanes, towers, creeps and a big ass target at the end of the lanes.[/QUOTE] there's no strict definition, teamfights are just as big for mobas as laning and towers. IMO that alone works

I would say a Hero-based roster, PVE elements, and mid-match leveling are the baseline required elements of a MOBA. Outside of the roster, Overwatch doesn't have either.

Plastic beach was better than demon days

[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;50292636]overwatch is tf2 as a moba[/QUOTE] 9/10 of the arguments against this are whining. Overwatch is a MOBA and it's more or less advertised as one with the forced e-sports aspect
