I have two copies to give away. Post with your steam handle if you want it. First two get it.

I would love to give it a shot! My handle is 'thefattyman'. Really swamped with work today and tomorrow but I'll be ready to jump in with both feet starting Friday!

Apparently you need to accept my friend request before I can send it.

I'd take one. I played the crap of out old DotA. Is this what it looks like: basically the same game in a new engine?

"He lets the last Hungarian go, and he goes running. He waits until his wife and kids are in the ground and he goes after the rest of the mob. He kills their kids, he kills their wives, he kills their parents and their parents' friends. He burns down the houses they grew up in and the stores they work in, he kills people that owe them money. And like that he was gone. Underground. No one has ever seen him again. He becomes a myth, a spook story that criminals tell their kids at night. 'If you rat on your pop, Keyser Soze will get you.' And nobody really ever believes." - Roger 'Verbal' Kint, The Usual Suspects

It's exactly the same game. They're going for a 1:1 remake. Not sure if I see the wisdom in that, because I freaking hate the way they handle items in DotA, you shouldn't need a flow-chart to upgrade your character. I'll send you a friend request on steam later today, accept it so I can gift it to you.

Thanks.

The item system was mediocre, but if they fix the need to remap keys to access items quickly in game I'd be satisfied.

My biggest problem with classic DotA was how easily games were ruined by 'leavers'. I'm hoping they have some new rating system that significantly reduces the impact of that.

steam found an "inferno" but not an inferno spirit.

hopefully that's you. Post to confirm, or friend me at dietrich513 if you didn't get an invite.

Thanks so much, Blindy!

I told Zair about DOTA 2, and he seemed interested in trying it out. He also subsequently told me to pronounce Blindy as Bl-I-ndy and not Bl-in-dy. Seems you used to go by Blind Swordsman? Makes a lot more sense now!

Again, thanks for this; I'm going to play the shit out of it!

Yeah, I basically never log in and mixed up my login name with my profile name. That is me; I accepted.

Yeah, I had a rogue in everquest that I rp'ed as a blind swordsman. Which probably annoyed the shit out of a lot of people, now that I think about it. That is also why I have a full suite of blind-folded emoticons.

Game is on its way.

You guys might get two more copies to give. Pay it forward.

Got it. Thanks a lot, Blindy.

I'll probably want to take that back and curse your name when it's 5am and I just want one more awesome Elune's Arrow kill.
