Why did Heroes of the Storm fail in the end? Was it just general ASSFAGGOTS fatigue?

That art is unbearably fucking bad

It was a vaguely good game so Blizzard killed it on purpose

It's like the league of legends of league of legends; it steps down any sense of skill ceiling so badly that it just becomes a team brawler arena with no potential to shine.
League hit the golden spot with diminishing the overly complex and wildly high ceiling of Dota to appeal to a hugely wide audience.
HoTS did it again, diminishing the League complexity and depth to an astoundingly low bar in an attempt to find a "Goldener spot", and sadly they found out that if you make it too dumb, casual and easy it doesn't actually work for the hypercompetitive inherent nature of the genre.

It arrived to the scene too late and while it did have a niche ActiBlizz killed it in favor of chasing esports they were never going to get.

Blizzard pushed the esports part of the game really hard instead of letting it be developed naturally by the players and the casual audiene got sidelined because of that

I actually loved it. The only thing I didn't like is team leveling instead of individual leveling. This meant that if you had one or two bad players on your team it was a guaranteed loss.
I love the characters and many of them have brand-new mechanics that have never been done in a moba.
It was absolutely a breath of fresh air in the record breakingly stale moba genre and naturally blizzard had to fuck it up as they seem to enjoy doing.

Why can no one draw Alex properly?

I liked it. I still do. I just don't play games as much as I used to.

i blame the macacos.

Just too late. League and DotA already have their share of the market, even if they're much worse games.

are there any casual players left or is everyone that still plays a super tryhard?

they're all monkeys! They play like shit and they keep talking funny, I don't what "que o varian é um pedaço de merda" mean

It wasn't on Steam

they should've added a feature where you can sniff alexstrasza's armpits and heal

it suffers from overwatch syndrome, a shit game only remembered for the porn

It didn’t fail as much as it failed in blizz eyes to become the next MUH ESPORTS THING. I liked it because I could play it with non doturd friends and it didn’t try to mimic dota or lol.

Otherwise it was bit too simplified so after 2 weeks you get bored if you play Dota or league and map objectives were cool but half of them was trashy.

His human Applejack is unbelievably hot.

My fucking duck.

This is true but league right now is just as hard as dota, at least in terms of mechanical skill due to the high speed of the game.

sucks because it was the only one I liked to play. it had some fun maps and was objective based. queue times were abysmal even with friends.

>Why did Heroes of the Storm fail in the end?
Because they had a fucking retarded business model and they're late to the party as usual.
>ASSFAGGOTS was already irrelevant
>They spent millions on the game (It's the last quality blizzard product)
>There was never a reason to spend money in HOTS 2.0
>There was never a battlepass

There are some unbelievably bad retards still hanging around. I think f2p games will always have poor monkeys.

Why do you think spending money makes you a better player?

It's always the same thing. OP post a lewd pic, and someone comes in and say "god that has to be the most horrendous artstyle I've ever seen" or something among those lines.
I don't get them.
I've seen worse art. Contemporary artists thrive on mediocrity these days. Deviantart has a plethora of shitty artists who still use MSPaint and draw like toddlers. This looks like some hours were put into designing it. So what's wrong with it?
No really, I'm genuinely asking, as sincere as my autism is, what the fuck is wrong with this pic? Is it really that bad? Would you say Chris Chan draws better?

Moba is a self cannibalizing genre with lots of sunken cost fallacy and tribalistic brain rot that leads to desperate need for validation that the game you're wasting your entire life is the correct one to choose from.
HotS came out so late that everyone was either already in another camp or sick tired of moba fad altogether.

This could never be official.
