    It’s not for everyone, it being a third instead of first person shooter with the complexity of a MOBA.

    But goddamn I am obsessed.

    And as an older, more chilled out gamer, the toxicity doesn’t get to me the way it used to when I played Dota after school every day.

    No matter how well or badly a match is going, I’m managing to have fun regardless. I just don’t assign the emotional stakes to being the best player in a lobby, or to the matchmaking landing me on a winning team.

    At the same time there is an absolute crap-ton of mechanics I enjoy, and I’m up to matchmaking with 9 characters selected. How is every damn aspect of every part of this game this fun?!

      I definitely agree, and the playstyle of the characters are super fun across the board. The only time I had a bad match was when I got a bug where I couldn’t teleport as pocket (really nerfing my kit) but in general I love the feel of the game
