Nov 8, 2013Great game, lots of effort coming from Valve.
Completely free to play if you do fall for the awesome ingame store.
Top-notch voice actors.
Grab it now, give it a try, it is worth it -

Nov 1, 2013I hoped this game would get me really hooked up for a long long time but for my surprise when I was going to play my first match I discovered that the community is really unsupportive not beginner-friendly I just need 3 words to describe this game WORST COMUNNITY EVER

Nov 1, 2013A sublime and beautiful game, crippled by inept developers who care only about making a quick buck with the ceaseless addition of overpriced cosmetic items into the store. Dota could be so much more, but at the moment it is being held back by Valve's greed and laziness.
-
Nov 1, 2013No communication, too many unfixed as well as unadressed bugs and a hats only policy justify this rating.
Furthermore, the greedy actions of the company and the undesireable balance make this game a real joke and nothing but a waste of time. I highly suggest to play League of Legends or Heroes of Newerth instead. -

Nov 1, 2013Absolutely monotonous game, the sense in which no. The developer does not update the content. One game mode which are different battles 1/1 5/5. What developers themselves supposedly working on new content, but very slowly. Soon grow into a global knockout items and selling them at auction.

Don't ignore your community. You do not hold any power, you do not pay for your game, you do not dictate to the community what they want and what they don't want, you are 0 without us, just like my rating for you. -
Nov 1, 2013Thx 4 Halloween. Best event in my life. Goodgame wellplayed. Worst game ever with worst matchmaking system and worst support from developers. Dota community really hate you all.

Nov 1, 2013The developers of this game do not care the slightest about their customers. Expect zero communication with the community and hardly any content updates. Avoid this developer at all costs.

Nov 2, 2013Worst game ever, valve don't hear community. No event's in this year (Halloween) or anything. In other games he did some event (cs:go, tf2). Bad matchmaking system!
-
Nov 1, 2013No diretide. No new hero in more than 3 months. You ruin my halloween. 0 communication from Valve to the community. Only hats and more hats. GG VOLVO DOTO DEAD GAME. DISBAND PLEASE
-
Nov 1, 2013Absolutely zero communication between developers and the player-base. Diminishing community. Huge delay between patches, updates and bug-fixes. Annual events canceled without any type of announcements. Nothing more to say tbh.

Nov 1, 2013I honestly love the game.
But 4 months of no new decent content and the community going to hell is just pathetic.
Not a 0, game is better than that. 4 -
Nov 1, 2013
-
Nov 1, 2013Game is fun, but developer has beyond awful customer service, refuses to communicate with customers. Even the best game isn't worth playing when the developers stab you in the back. Please consider League of Legends and Heroes of Newerth, both are fun alternatives with superior communities and customer service.
-
Nov 1, 2013
-
Nov 1, 2013This game has been abandoned by the developers for other projects and further micro-transactions. Furthermore, Valve has kept a radio silence, even when it would benefit the game by saying something, anything. The infamous community is only riled up when treated in this way, dragging the game as a whole down to abyssal levels.
-
Nov 1, 2013
-
Nov 2, 2013We need:
New heroes
New mods
New festive mood
We need attention and answers!
We do not need:
Your tickets
Your sets
Your couriers
And the latest patch. -
Jan 12, 2017Dota 2 is dead go play league of lesbians or orher **** game because they are now even better than 7.00. ihope volvo realise how bad they game become now
-
Nov 1, 2013The game is really dead. Talk about "smth is going on behind the scenes" more, Valve! You abandoned your own creation, can't stop producing patches with NO BUGFIXES, never communicate with us. I guess it is just the end. No one will trust you anymore. So you can just go back to your nipples, steamboxes, gabepads and etc.
-
Nov 1, 2013Fine game with good graphics and balance, but Valve, please change your Valve's time. I waited Halloween event from Monday to Saturday and i have nothing. So sad.

Nov 1, 2013It is weird how a game can be better during its beta phase than after it's release. The complete lack of communication from the developers of this game is unbelievable, specially when compared to it's competitors.
-
Nov 1, 2013If valve doesn't give a about this game, then i don't. I'm not sore over the lack of diretide, I'm sore over the fact that valve hasn't said a single word. Every update is just a few cosmetics thrown into the game. No new heroes, no bug fixes. Only that will give them some extra cash.

Nov 1, 2013Terrible developers which make no communications with its playerbase at all. Atleast tell them what is going on when they ask, you just piss everyone off and they will hate you for it.
-
Nov 1, 2013Game started well but there is lack of communication between devs and community no new content like heroes/modes etc even though they have legion commander ready and built a techies hype for over a year ....only content is hats and tournament tickets....Also community is toxic

Nov 1, 2013Ok it's a free game, and it's probably the best MOBA out there. But as much as valve have given us this amazing game, the lack of interest in updating the game is disgusting. Valve just ignores the fans and do what they want, more hats in the game that we don't need.

Nov 1, 2013Im disappointed, Valve has failed us. Give Diretide or something better tenfold later. And im one of the people who has supported the game for years and put in plenty of my money in it, and i also own other Valve games.
-
Nov 1, 2013game developers are very disrespectful to the players, do everything in the game just for the money and nothing more nothing new and interesting for a variety of boring game did! do not play this game ever!
-
Nov 1, 2013Probably the deepest and most meaningful pvp experience you can have in an online game. From Hero choices, to lanes and item selections, this game has the possibilities of chess wrapped around a ridiculously skilled rts game.

Nov 1, 2013Thanks for shattering my dreams valve. Always thought you listened to your so 'dear' community. But in the end you left us in the void while too busy making new hats. Happy Halloween.

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.
