Nov 8, 2013This game is my life. It is developed by my dream employer and they do a fantastic job. They made one mistake in not communicating effectively but they have fixed that now. GOT DIRETIDE!

Nov 8, 2013Awesome company. There was a lack of communication with diretide but they owned up to it, apologized and actually gave us diretide! Apart from this incident Valve is awesome!

Nov 8, 2013This game is just awesome. I feel sorry for valve for having to put up with this community. Ok they didn't say anything about diretide so what? Spamming obama's facebook and getting metacritic score this low just because of that is just plain retarded.
Anyone that actually wants a decent review don't take this user score serious. -
Nov 8, 2013Best competitive game made. Volvo finally let us gyrocopter our orange Volvo from Russia. We can finally drive down the middle lane and feed all the villagers.
-
Nov 8, 2013Fantastic! Excellent balance and addictive competitive play! A gamer for many maaaany years, I always come back to Dota as no other game is quite as engaging.

Nov 8, 2013The current overall negative user review of Dota 2 is a result of entitled children downvoting the game over the omission of an "annual" free game mode. None of this petty behavior detracts from the gem that is Dota 2. Read the critics reviews and go try it for yourself.
-
Nov 8, 2013VOLVO GAVE US DIRETIDE! Honestly, a lot of people have been extremely upset at the lack of communication between the Devs and the Community but I think they'd made up for it with their last blog post!

Nov 8, 2013Best game I have played after WC3 dota. Valve is an amazing company that delivers quality content nonstop, and dont forget the yearly International tournament they bring the dota community. GREAT GAME, MUST GIVE IT A TRY!
-
Nov 8, 2013Dota 2 is a wonderful game, one that I've sunk thousands of hours into over the years. If you really want to get the full dota experience though, you absolutely need to play with friends.
-
Nov 8, 2013Awesome game with great developer, Valve cares for his players, and they do things to improve the game even if they don't update it every week. Don't listen to crying babies giving 0's to the game because of a game mode.

Nov 8, 2013this game is great. screw the naysayers. Really? you need 150 characters to review the game? That's annoying. The dota 2 community is a bit crazy, but I think that's bound to happen to any popular f2p game.

Nov 8, 2013One of the best, most difficult and truly competitive games I've ever played. It is free and doesn't have any pay-to-win, all heroes are free, the only paid content are cosmetical items that DO NOT change the gameplay at all

Nov 8, 2013Probably the most challenging and rewarding game out there. If you're into competitive gaming, strategy, and looking for a clever game, this is definitely for you.
It's also good on a casual level, but not too much. -

Nov 8, 2013Best MOBA out there, awesome variety of heroes, no hero is the same as another, great graphics, great variety of items, and last but not least, Received DIRETIDE
-
Nov 8, 2013Great game, really well done. Valve did a small mistake recently but they fixed their problem and apologized.
If you are a new player a wonder why the score is so low, pretty much a bunch of retards raided metacritic.
I advice you give this game a try, it will be hard at first but it turns out to be in my opinion the best game of the genre. -

Nov 8, 2013One of the best game, Valve has done a good job on Dota 2 and I am happy to see how my DotA have become. Valve just need to focus more on the community as well, then Dota 2 will no doubt be one of the best ARTS games
-
Nov 8, 2013A sucking game which can kick you out of the play without a reason out of nowhere and wont allow you to reconnect to the game without a reason and you'll lose a game without losing the game because Valve servers are on crack.

Nov 8, 2013http://blog.dota2.com/2013/11/not-my-best-work/
Lesson is learned people, it's a time to calm down and rejoice. Now, let's return our Dota a well deserved 9.3 user rating :D -

Nov 8, 2013Dota 2 is nothing other then Dota 1, the graphics was the reason and the whole game was wholly modified into a mess, it will make the new people playing the game

Nov 8, 2013What is Dota 2?Dota 2 is crappy matchmaking,horrible community,no communication from developers,no updats,hats and more hats.This game used to be updated every week,the developers used to communicate with the community but now its only hats and no communication.

Nov 7, 2013The game itself is a masterpiece. It has the biggest skill cap in MOBA gerne and the actual gameplay depends on many factors (strategy, quick response on teamfights,communication,coordination etc). However you can't enjoy that stuff if u solo que because of the STONE AGE MMR. If u don't have 4 friends of yours to que all the time, don't waste time in playing this

Nov 7, 2013No ladder, no ranks, no rewards. Good players are already abandoning match making to play on EEL.
No new heroes for months. Tired as hell to play with the same heroes over and over again. And against the same heroes. Mostly with the same item builds.
No Halloween event. Not making it for your most popular steam game, that's the way. -
Nov 7, 2013Seriously do not play this game. I play it a lot, it is by far my favorite game. But it will destroy you life, there are games that will give you the exact same feeling but with little commitment compared to this cankerous maelstrom of a game.
-
Nov 7, 2013The lack of dedication from the Devs and Valve makes this game not worth playing, no new content added very repetitive community has it's ups and downs. and the cosmetic micro-transactions can suck you in really fast losing any desire yo play just to sit on random sites trading items in a repetitive manner. 0
-

Nov 7, 2013Basically what others have said. Initially a good game but once the in-game cosmetic store was started it has been nothing but cosmetics and no game updates. It is not even considered "finish" (not all heroes ported from WC Dota). The game has significantly degraded in terms of everything just to get more new players and get them to buy cosmetics.
-
Nov 7, 2013Valve has fogotten its community! where is DIRETIDE #GIVEDIRETIDE, one year they do a lot of things for the community and so on and then when things get going (a.k.a the store is lucrative enough) they simply stop doing things and let the boulder of money roll downhill

Nov 7, 2013m. When you done em, it helps 0.0 with the online experience. It is not clear for me, if i can make a char and level/upgrade it or if i have mes not even one good game since what i see are people on the losing side always flaming each other, end

Nov 7, 2013No normal matchmaking system No balance not interesting. Dota 2 is an amazing game, made by an absolutely terrible team. Hasn't been updated in almost a half a year, no community interaction on what's going on, while the only thing that gets added is cash shop items.

Nov 7, 2013This game is all about hats now. Only thing Valve update in this game is new hats and tournament tickets.
Matchmaking is stupid, queue you with stupid people to force you 50% win rate.
And now the dev team ignore all the community and give no information about nothing when we ask.
It's a dead game -
Nov 6, 2013Hello!
I love this game and play it for a long time. The fact is that last year was Diretide. But in this year it was canceled. Valve, please take care of your community and the people which play DotA 2. Otherwise, you will lose them.
Thanks. -
Nov 6, 2013Very bad matchmaking, bad teammates in soloMM. Bad servers, becouse have lags, big lags on EU/RU/USA servers. Please, fix this matchmaking. Stop give us random players in game.

Nov 6, 2013This game improved so much since it was released on the beta. There are over 90 heroes to choose from currently and the gamplay is as intence and as rewarding as DOTA 1.

Nov 6, 2013game is good. company doesn't care about the community which has resulted in this user score. if you want to try something for a short time, the game is fun, but Valve has displayed that they have little interest in supporting the community.

Nov 6, 2013Valve spits on his community, so do not be surprised that the community will not care about you. You made a free game, but only care about their own enrichment at the expense of tickets and hats. Keep on like this!!

Nov 6, 2013Dota 2 have very bad communiti, very bad balanse, where new heroes???????????
Valve try to listen people, that playing into your game!
And make all heroes plz. -
Nov 6, 20136.79 patch have very bad metagaming changes (no hardline/easyline enaugh now like a LoL), no new hero... over few mounth only tickets and sets... more action that strategy(bot dota 2 is MOBA)... pfffff, gj icefrog and valve.

Nov 6, 2013Developer that doesn't care about the community. They have shown time and time again,, they don't actually care about the players. Great game ever ^^^
Awards & Rankings

Aug 15, 2017And this dichotomy is perhaps the best descriptor I can attach to Dota 2. It is frequently a game which occupies two opposite spaces simultaneously. It is the best game. It is also the worst game. No game has ever made me as miserable as Dota 2 has. But no game has made me feel so consistently rewarded for my time, and as consistently, wonderfully connected to the friends I play it with.
