I am not a huge fan of MOBAs, but I have tried to give some of them a chance, mainly since a lot of people play them. I have tried both League of Legends and Dota 2 and haven't played many hours of either game, but from the little time I've played, I've realized that both have really bad communities. I'd go as far as to say Dota 2 is the worst, mainly because of the report system they have. People on Dota 2 seem to think they have the right to report you just because they don't like you. This leads to you being muted for so long, depending on how many of these people reported you. Instead of helping new players, these people decide to just treat them like crap. I understand that Valve thought this system would help, but it is just being abused.
Actually, I must admit that all online games have really bad communities, or small bad communities. The only online game I really play is Team Fortress 2, and even though I've met some great people on it, I've also met the overly competitive players that yell at everyone on their team. These people tend to ruin online games for me. This is probably why I hardly play online games, and am more of single player gamer.
I don't really plan to do many blog posts, and I apologize if this one felt like more of a rant. I just wanted to give blog posting a try.
MOBA Communities Suck!
