Still getting dunked on in Dota 2? Don't worry, even Gabe Newell gets called a noob once a week, apparently

    Being a dev on a competitive multiplayer game means getting wrecked every playtest by balance designers and community managers who used to be pros/streamers.

  Why does Gabe look like he’s transforming into the precursor to this guy?

  This is why I never play these type of games. We’re all just trying to play and have fun but no, there has to be that one asshole…. ok depending on the game maybe 20 or so

  I’m guessing they weren’t loved enough as children, or they still are children. One of the two.

    Used to play DOTA like crazy as a kid when it was a custom game on Warcraft 3. When DOTA2 came out as a stand alone I was hyped to relive the experience but I couldn’t really remeber how to play well. First game in I got all-caps screamed at: people wishing my mother never gave birth to me and telling me I should kill myself. I decided that my DOTA experience was best kept as a fond memory.

      There just really isn’t use for vitriol like that. It’s just a game people. I’ll just stick to my single player open world games. I have way more fun anyhow.

      I loved Warcraft 3. We used to plan LAN games in a little gaming cafe near work at lunch all the time. I never knew DOTA was a W3 mod… Today I learned.

  A weaker man in his position would nerf all the others

    He definitely did, that’s the only reason I’m in bronze.

    That was a joke, I don’t play Dota and don’t know the leagues.

    Yeah I know I would. I’m not weak, I just have no tolerance for people being mean to each other for no real reason.
