Think LoL will survive with this?

Post by tw1ster » Fri Jul 29, 2011 5:54 pm

If you don't know what I'm talking about: viewtopic.php?f=326&t=183805

Do you think LoL will still be as popular? If you've played Heroes of Newerth you'd notice the pros and cons.. do you think LoL can still compete?

Of course. Has ten times more players that won't quit for an eye candy dota. If HoN free to play would have appeared when LoL had problems with EU servers then they might have switched, but now no. Also it's more complex with runes, levels, masteries and what not. At least the players from LSRP won't switch I think.

HoN is just an uglier Dota.

HoN's anything but uglier; it's alot faster paced game-play, and it does look alot better, but alot of the people who play League of Legends can't afford HoN, the thing is.. I think they'll give HoN a test (Like bloom) and see that it really does run alot better than' LoL (game-play wise) and looks alot better at the same time; but of course looking at it from the gameplay aspect.. it's alot more fast-paced than LoL which might sway some interest it's way, but one thing HoN's -NOT- is noob friendly (atleast it wasn't when I played) which might deter LoL players from playing.

I played HoN professionally and yeah it was a great game, although the fact that they are copying LoL 100%. LoL has like a 10x playerbase then HoN. The HoN f2p restricts you from a lot of shit that you can play with a purchased account. It's a toss up between which game is more competitive, although due to LoL's playerbase I'd say LoL is a lot more competitive. (dreamhack, WCG etc)

There will always be a group of people who prefer this or that. League of Legends still has a huge fanbase.

Mann this question shouldn't even be brought up, of course LoL will survive with HoN being F2P. Wait till Dota 2, HoN will have some trouble then :roll:
