Last week’s DotA debate confused me more than the game of DotA itself. Either we don’t have a lot of DotA gamers reading Dtoid, or they’re all just too busy playing DotA to add to these debates. Sure, the lack of votes last week could be that not a lot of people play the game mod, but when the site that only hosts the newest version of the map consistently gets more Internet traffic than our site, that leaves me wondering how many people actually play this game daily.
Even more confusing was that a good portion of the votes seemed to contradict the player trends I had sensed on BattleNet in the two months that I’ve been playing the game. I guess what I’m trying to say is, this will definitely be a debate we’ll revisit again in the future. When the DotA dust finally settled though, here were the two that took home the gold:
- Favorite DotA Hero: (Tie) Goblin Techies & Faceless Void
This week we’re taking a debate topic suggestion from our intern, and giving him just enough time off of work to cast his vote before building a mansion for Jim, as well as finishing my long list of chores while I’m busy playing Braid. The last time I visited this game debate topic was almost two years ago, so with Dexter345‘s suggestion we are now expanding its scope and hoping for even more discussion.
Just to be clear — this is a series versus series versus series debate, so vote accordingly. If one game in particular in one of these series really stands out to you, then feel free to let it tip the scales when making your choice, but let us all know why you made your decision. Out of the three semi-similar series shown above, which is your favorite, and why? Give it some serious thought, get some PS2 friends to share their opinions as well, and check back next week for the winner.
Bonus Question: Which game out of the series you picked was your favorite?
