    Valve, It was a bad idea to do this with all community. People love Dota 2 but ,what did you do? You added sets to make more money but you forgot about community about people who love this game and who want to have a little bit of fun at Halloween. Shame on you Valve!

    We need more sets and tickets....We need more bugs... We don't need some new mods and events. Deleting Dota 2. I'll play Warframe. That game is better

    Best free to play game in a true sense. There's no need to buy new heroes, no Pay-to-win issue at all. The game is absolutely fantastic especially after Valve has been putting focus on server stability, balance and the most importantly, community. It's amazing how the game has been improved since its first Beta launch back in 2011. I've played Dota 1, LoL, HoN, and Smite

    Valve ty for Helloween
    Dead game is dead, even LoL has their halloween.
    Garbage matchmaking
    Garbage report system
    Garbage game engine results in 9 games without someone being able to load and you reenter the queue
    0 communication and 0 visibility no visible MMR no ladders)
    No region locks.
    You take a perfect game and turn it into worst game ever created.

    We have waited for this event so long! But you lost our hopes...we just want this diretide! Is it hard to give it?
    I think not. So what is the problem, Valve? You mad a celebration to all the games. But excluding Dota 2. This is so terrible! I couldn't believe that! And not only me. Just look at the people you made sad.

    No communication between developer and the community.Valve abandoned the game and don't release updates, it's been 4 months since the latest release of a new hero.

    Everyone is giving this game a bad score, but they'll keep on playing it.

    Dota 2 is fun, addicting and very challenging and an amazing game altogether.
    You can spend hours endlessly playing and there's so much to learn from the pro scene.
    I love watching Dota 2 matches almost as much as I do playing them!

    This game is amazing and deserves being recognised as such.

    Thanks for your hat, Volvo! Seriously though, Is money takes up your whole mind already or something? Why kept silence to your Dota 2 community? It's your game, Valve, not belong anybody else, and why you still doing this to your Dota 2 fan? Hats? more like a big you" to the community...

    Valve stopped make good updates since August 2013, and there are break Matchmaking completely.
    90-80% of dota community is much aggressive.
    But i hope, Valve take a break and there 'll make good updates later...

    Valve stopped supporting DotA 2. Have not produced new characters in the game. Most rastroilo that the developers forgot about the traditional Halloween.

    And 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.

    Unforgiving from the get-go, but a landmark in competitive multiplayer design. [Oct 2013, p.68]
