I understand why people who take mobas seriously get worked up about Dan here, but it's absurd that one guy can impact a match that much. It's a weakness in the game's or the genre's design. In most multiplayer games, it won't matter if a few people are off doing their own thing. Shooters, rpgs, MMOs; You can run around and look at trees and everyone else will still be having a good time, but mobas fall apart when one guy isn't up to par.
I don't play MOBAs or any multiplayer games really, but I wouldn't say it's a flaw in the game design that losing 1/5th of your team would be a major disadvantage. If the goalkeeper was constantly running off in a hockey or soccer match, I'm sure people could see why that would be detrimental.
Oh SHIT! Intelligent Qube! I had that on a demo disk as a kid, played it a whole bunch and had no idea what the game was! I think it was on the same disk as Tomba! I always wanted to get Tomba, fun demo, would love to see if it was actually good.
I feel like the Cool Boarders announcer guy could easily have been Fred Durst.
Man, I'm so torn on this. I've been really looking forward to playing this game, but the performance issues are putting me off (I'd be playing on PS4), especially putting me off buying it at full price (which is a shame because I want to play it immediately).
