Heroes of the Storm
 

STRAIGHT OUT OF BLIZZCON:

Blizzard's new MOBA-style game, Heroes of the Storm, will feature a large roster of Blizzard characters in a completely new, competitive environment.


And actual gameplay:


Thoughts? Opinions? Excitement? Converse.

P.S. Hi everyone :awesome:

I'm not sure how I feel about gameplay yet. The first video looks great, but I really won't know until I play it. I've tried other MOBAs, but they never seem to get me hooked like League has. They always seem like neat concepts, but the execution is always too slow.

Either way, I have high hopes and I'm really pulling for Carrier being a thing I can be. Just main Carrier all the time. I know these are more characters, but I totally don't care.

You don't care-ier.

I totally want to try out Diablo. I'm pulling for Baal and Mephisto at least to be in this too.

I agree with trying other MOBA's, none has really hooked me like League of Legends...I have high hopes that Blizzard can deliver a similar product (i.e. a not overly complicated MOBA style game, can be picked up by non-hardcore MOBA players, but still very competitive).

It looks dumb. I gotta laugh at all the Blizzard drones going "RIP LoL, The original makers are back" like the people who made DotA were Blizzard, and it wasn't a mod made by the people who went on to make League d DotA2

Gameplay wise I'm just worried about how slow it'll be. League already takes quite a long time, haha.

Re: Heroes of the Storm
 

I don't know about dumb for the game, but the people who think this will end LoL are indeed dumb.

I like the concept of Blizzard making a MOBA of their own. They have very extensive roster of interesting characters from across all of their franchises...I will just have to see the execution of how it turns out.

Regardless, it would never "end" my playing of League as well...it might just be another interesting MOBA that I am looking forward too. Honestly, the gameplay looks great.

Honestly? looks pretty freakin cool to me, Hogger better be in it though.

While any Blizzard game will be good (sometimes eventually) I'll have to see it in play before I make any real judgements...
