    That’s a game I hadn’t thought of in a long time. I wanted that to be good so badly. It just wasn’t though. Didn’t run well, wasn’t fun. Apparently someone has remade the game with the same name + the overprime. Wonder if they made it any better.

    I would say that was a strong influence but there were a lot of custom games with some of the elements of DOTA before it. I think DOTA defined the entire genre and how all the elements work first. Brood War just didn’t even have the options to make a real MOBA.

    They clearly came to market too early. Trying to time the death of twitter. The 5-10 minutes I spent on that shit was enough to see how broken it was and how many features were missing. You can’t come to market with a broken product in a space that requires exponential growth and the network effect to achieve success.



  • I sold a wow account 15 years ago that was decked out for the time (guild broke up) for $1,000. Kept getting emails for years. Eventually I got sick of it and responded to one saying the account had changed hands and they banned it immediately. They only care about people selling/trading things outside of their system. They get a wiff of an account being sold and they’ll nuke it.




  • Astroturfed@lemmy.worldtoMemes@lemmy.mlNot today, sorry.

    Are you going to like sit down restaurants in America though?.. cuz those people make around $3 an hour most places with no benefits. I don’t approve of the system but please don’t go to a fine dining establishment and stiff the waiter. It’s fucked up.
