no it's not. take the worst parts of mmorpgs and make it round based. LEAGUE OF LEGENDS!

psh hater. Yeah I admit there are things you get "suckered in" to buying, completely optional but you're like shit might as well support dev in a tiny way by buying a skin. Though I haven't bought a single thing yet :/ . I like this better than combat arms (yeah I know completely different game), where its not so shitty and things that you buy stay with you forever rather than "10 hours" or something. Plus if you're playing with decent players, and you know what you're doing as well, then you can get pretty intense rounds where the game ends up lasting you 75-80 minutes rather than the average 25-40. There are overpowered champions, but once you know which ones then it becomes easier to  counteract.
I never played DoTA which league of legends boasts that it derives from. But after playing LoL, I kinda wish I did. I tried getting it, do people even play anymore? Apparently site shutdown too.

Installing Warzone right now.

Just spend a one time fee of $30 for Heroes of Newerth if LoL has you suckered. You'll never need to buy money for more "champions" or "runes" or whatever they're calling it. And the graphics are a million times better.

You don't have to buy any of the gameplay stuff in LoL, only the cosmetic useless crap. At least, as far as I've seen. You earn IP to buy heroes from playing the game. Also LoL and HoN are only the same game on a basic level, so it's really down to preference.

You do realize it's a choice to hate either iteration of dota 2.0, right? Strange how HoN and LoL players treat the opposing game. It's rare to find someone (like me) who likes both.

Speaking of which I need to find my info for HoN again. I bought a retail account a while ago under a new name (since my main ACC name was taken when retail opened up) and it's about time I pop in and see what's up with them. It's been months.

If you're after something good, if quite old, try CASTLE OF THE WINDS. It's a game from like the early 90s that used to be shareware but is freeware now. It's a little like diablo, but with an actual plot. The moves are based on D&D which is good. Graphics are a little weak though - but it depends how good your IMAGINATION is :D


Oh and apparently there is an ONLINE version now:



Good times!

Guardian of Paradise is a fun game. You might also want to check out Eternal Daughter.

Everyone has the right to be himself; wise men know how to,when, and whether to navigate the boundary between their rights and those of others when they collide.

So let me tell you about something. It's a big secret of mine.
 
 I love trains. FUKKIN LOVE DEM TRAINS
TRAINS TRAINS TRAINS TRAINS TRAINS TRAINS TRAINS TRAINS TRAINS TRAINS TRAINS TRAINS TRAINS TRAINS
 
 Do you like trains, do you associate with things on rails? You don't? How about some BUSES or how about some BOATS or how about some goddamn AIRPLANES!
 
 Well let me tell you have I got a thing for you to try! http://www.openttd.org/en/ It's got all the transportation you'd ever want. But wait I have looked at OpenTTD before and you need the original game of Transport Tycoon! This is false, you can get the winders installer and use the free packages for all the stock art in the game meaning you can play this for free.
 
 Get this game, lay some rails, move some goods and make some $$$. FUKKIN TRAINS ALL UP IN THIS SHIT The wiki is pretty good too if you get confused.
