    Ok, even though i totally agree with the "Give us Diretide" movement, i'm not going to give Dota 2 a bad score, because it would hurt us all in the end. I still have my hopes up that Valve will make up for this situation.
    It's not about being entitled to anything, its about crushed hopes, dreams and expectations.
    The game is a lot of fun, I personally enjoy it. But it it's flaws. Bottom

    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.

    The most terrible attitude of the players I've ever seen. Valve only care about money and in-game store than nothing really has changed, except for a recent update 6.79 which I like so many other players feel just disgusting.

    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.

    It's perfectly fine that there is no diretide in this game. Valve does lack communication, but overall they are doing a good job. Play this game, you wont be dissapointed.

    This game is truly awesome in so many ways. Sure it got some flaws but what game doesn't?

    I feel sorry for the guys voting 0 because they didn't get Diretide this year. When they really love the game as much as I do.

    No communication with the community from Valve. No new hero in more than 3 months only hats and more hats to make more money.

    This game was good for a while, then overtime, Valve's lack of communication with the community and corporate greed ruined this game. League of Lesbians have Halloween event; TF2 (which has a 50k playerbase compared to the 500k Dota 2 playerbase) have its Halloween event. Valve really disappointed me when it prioritized "hats" (cosmetic items, couriers, tournament tickets, etc)

    No Rise of Darkness. There is no communication with the population from Valve. No new hero in more than 3 months, the only hats, hats and more in order to earn more money. Dissolve the Volvo please.

    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]
