    A different kind of MOBA, but not for everyone. Unfortunately, I don't see myself playing this game too often; it's not my type of MOBA. Nonetheless, it's undeniably impressive. I genuinely wished I could get into this game, and I did try, but it just doesn't resonate with me.

    Smite is an exhilarating MOBA that brings gods and mythological figures to life. With its unique third-person perspective, fast-paced battles, and a diverse roster of deities, it offers a fresh and immersive take on the genre. The strategic gameplay and constant updates make Smite a must-play for fans of competitive multiplayer games.

    While I'm not always in the mood to play Smite, it has a lot of staying power and is fresh enough to keep coming back to for weeks or months at a time. The 3rd person pov is also a nice touch, and the theme is obviously terrific.

    Smite has lots of gods and skins and has been around for many years.
    Although it is not very fun to play, it has lots of content.

    One of the best games i've played ever period. Never gets old. Tons of gods 0 pay to win. Skins are somewhat expensive but worth every penny because of the sheer detail on each one.

    The gameplay feels amazing and you will learn stuff quickly.
    Artstyle of the gods is probably my favorite part.
    Mythology instead of "made up" characters is pretty cool!

Every Gas has it's own unique ability thus giving you a chance to make your own tactics and attack on several different ways.

    In the end of 2018 we have clearly saw a change in designers and the team that is creating the content for the game. First the arenas and the playgrounds that they implemented are very weird and ugly.
    Maybe the biggest problem (at the current time in January 2019.) is their launcher Everything worked fine for years and then in late 2018. Hi-Rez created a new launcher that makes you update the game very time you start the game. For users with fast connection, it will take up to 5 or 10 minutes to update every time in order to play. For other, it will take a lot longer.
    If you plan to play this game, I highly recommend it. But maybe it would be better to play it via Steam as you won't have any problems with updates. Only hope stays that the Smite team and Hi-Rez will leave the path that leads to poor graphics and really weird arena's and playgrounds and continue with the path that lead the game to be one of the best MOB games available.    … Expand

That being said, the game still has major problems that it has had for a long time. Smite is known for its terrible matchmaking which basically makes it unable to compete along side other major MOBAs like LoL or Dota 2. Hi-Rez (game developers) keep releasing new gods and content that keep breaking the game instead of trying to balance what they already have. This are the 2 main problems with Smite which IMO makes it not suitable for a 9 or 10 rating, though,the matchmaking system is totally being remade and Hi-Rez is slowly winning back the community's trust, we'll see how the game improves but as of right now, 8/10 for me.… Expand

    The best MOBA, without any doubts. Smite completely wrecks overhyped LoL, Dota 2 and HotS
    Pros
    + Amazing fast paced gameplay
    + Every move in this game is a skillshot
    + Balanced interesting gods to choose
    + A lot of game modes
    + Lots of free stuff and events
    + Update every 2 weeks
    Cons
    - Lately game is getting very small uptades
    - Small playerbase compared to Moba giants

    This is a very good game, in the sense that its the first MOBA I've ever played and I like playing it. The graphics are enjoyable, as are the different gods/modes to choose from. However the entire community is horrid. Not only does it take well over 10 minutes to find a game because someone is leaving the lobby or not locking in, but you face harassment after actually getting into a game.This is a very good game, in the sense that its the first MOBA I've ever played and I like playing it.

Not only does it take well over 10 minutes to find a game because someone is leaving the lobby or not locking in, but you face harassment after actually getting into a game. If you are good, you have no life and you are a hacker.... but if you play a bad game you suck you need to delete your account and go kill yourself. No matter how much you get harassed, and even if you report someone, it still stays the same. The person never gets a penalty in any way, and they continue to harass you even if you play a good game with them. It goes well beyond the game as well, even after the game has ended they private message you to continue being crappy. This game would be perfect if we could actually block someone so that I can never read their raging messages. I've tried blocking them though it still pairs them in a game with me, and I can still read messages in game. The only thing it solves is private messages. This game actually has made me delete it so many times just because of people being such ass faces about every little thing. All in all I like how this game plays, but if you can find a way to weed out the little **** faces that ruin the whole experience it would be perfect. I've had less ****ing from players on call of duty and I thought that game was bad. On this game we have guys with no life that just sit here and play 24/7 to complain to other people. Then they always seem to get stuck on MY team. Even if we are winning and he/she is the only one on the team dying at all they still freak out and tell the whole team they suck etc. This game should come with free anger management for those that obviously well beyond need it and a zanax so we can put up with their crap. If you can get past all the B.S from the community online, then by all means play this game. It is quite good, provided you grow up before you download it because all the little children playing this game are making it unpleasant for us that actually enjoy games for FUN. It's not the end of the world if you lost, and if it is then kindly ask your mother to wipe your butt and give you a new diaper before you log back in. I give it a 8/10 just because the game was great, and yet I still would rather eat glass than play it.… Expand

    No le doy un 10 porque odio el sistema que ponen en cuanto a skins limitadas. Te obligan a pagar por porquerias que no te gustan solo para tener 1 skin que no se puede conseguir de ninguna otra forma. El usuario no tendria que ser condicionado a la hora de comprar, tendria que tener completa libertad para elegir que adquirir y que no.
    En cuanto a todo lo demás, es un gran juego.

Smite is a game that focuses on player skill most moves are skill shots and I love that. All that and the game is free!!! well you get a few gods that you get to play for free and if you want to unlock others you can do so with in game currency but if you want certain skins or voice packs then you have to pay. Definitely a game worth trying you have nothing to lose!… Expand

    Smite is truly enjoyably outstanding approach to MOBA genre. In a first impression it may appear that it lack some strategy elements of its more classical cousins.

    Some people will find it a as plus but for me it is a bit more negative note is that it is a bit more forgiving then my other favourite, DOTA 2, but it is not something that changes my general impression.
    Graphic may not appear insane but it is definitely currently the pretties of all big MOBA games, aesthetics are nice and interface is very clear.
    The nicest thing about Smite for me is that players seem a bit less salty then any other game of this type.

    Smite is a game that changed the MOBA genre more than any other. It's third person perspective is a welcoming sight because it means that moving around is less complicated. In most MOBA's you can move the character and the camera separately which can be confusing for new players. It also allows for more action because you are so close to the action.

In most MOBA's you can move the character and the camera separately which can be confusing for new players. It also allows for more action because you are so close to the action. There are no auto attacks and all skill (unless they are buffs) need to be aimed which means you have to play much closer attention to what you are doing. Smite uses Gods form different mythologies as there "Hero's" and it has meant that I have learnt more about ancient cultures and their beliefs. It has a few game modes which are all unique. It has the normal MOBA game mode with the 3 lanes and the jungles but it also has an arena where you just need to kill the enemy and the Match of the day changes things within each game mode and it adds variety to what the game has to offer. Most of the community is good but there are some very toxic players. There are balancing issues and some items or gods are much more overpowered than others. You can customize your account with new icons, music themes, card borders, stands and god skins but there is so much that it can fell overwhelming and it can take awhile to gather gems (which is what you use to buy most of the stuff). Favor is the currency you get for playing the game but the stuff you can buy with it is limited. It also has some connection problems but if you have decent WiFi then you should be OK.

    Excellent daily login rewards that gives you gems (to buy skins without having to spent money)

    Tanks don't get melted like in League, in here tanks can actually tank for carries using body block and its really fun to play as a tank. whereas in League no one ever wants to play Support since its boring.

    Third god perspective freshens up the MOBA genre but its potential was not fully utilized (e.g. you can jump, but there’s nowhere to jump to). Smite makes up for that with varied game modes and accessibility to inexperienced or casual players. [06/2014, p.58]
