Comment on It genuinely upsets me that Valve spent their time and resources on another Dota variation

  I grew up and decided that games have a place in my life to give experiences, you grew up and decided that they are a source of burst distractions. I guess age has nothing to do with it and it’s just about personal preference.

    Some games give you a story that sticks with you and you love them for that (Half-Life, To The Moon, Bioshock Infinite). Some give you an experience that sticks with you but no story to speak of (like Doom and Doom II, which I still play).

    What I dislike is having to deal with people in my games. I already do that in reality, thank you very much.

    To me games are about escaping reality.

  I’m not a kid anymore and I’m the opposite: give me a single player Half Life 3 so I can relax without getting stressed online after work.

  I wasn’t a kid anymore when HL came out. Hope you are still having fun, whatever you’re doing.
