Apparently no one is interested in this game, but a very well made comic was released as a promotion for the game. The drawing and inking are fantastic

I've never played DotA but I've watched people pay it. Not my type of game since I am also not a Diablo player. I understand the interest in it because it takes cooperation and teamwork to get big things done. Plus if you really want to play something similar there is always League of Legends

The Graphic Novel is amazing. The art is fantastic and the story is a good one. I like it.

Here is a little humor...

(It's really an awful song. Really really bad. If not for the hot girls it would be a complete waste of time)

Yeah I remember that tune, back when I first started playing DOTA. Brutal Euro beats. My Serbian roommate loves that crap lol

And yea, the comic's art is fantastic.

So, anyone playing? I started today... gorgeous engine and art direction. Really, really solid so far for a beta.

I've been playing it the last few days. Its pretty good so far, I was really impressed with how solid it runs. When you plan on playing again Alf?

[Lord ALF]

Played a bit tonight with bots... man, keep getting my arse handed to me.

Just MSG me through Steam if you see me on playing. Right now I'm limiting myself to Private Bot games till I get a handle on the game. Moves pretty quick so it has a steep learning curve.

[FiLTHY_SNiPER]

When do you guys usually play? Need some proper peeps for teamwork

[Lord ALF]

I flat out suck at this game... almost to the point where I want to rage quit... and that's just with the AI.
