Heroes of the Storm (lemmy.world)

I just installed Ubuntu on a second drive in my main machine. Unlike prior attempts, everything is working great. I play Blizzard’s Heroes of the Storm regularly. I don’t see it in ProtonDB. It seems to play fine. Anyone have any issues with it? I remember long ago things like Battlefield of Eternity map circles wouldn’t show.

I dont have advice but damn I played the shit out of that back in the day, is it still any good? I used to main Murky, TLV, and Tyrael (when needed lol)

That and Awesomenauts were top tier mobas in my (decidedly unpopular) opinion.

It is exactly as good as it was if you aren’t really competitive. I’m sure at the top end the lack of a large, financially motivated player base must suck. But I am nowhere near the top.

Oh yeah I just played casually for the most part. And that was like ten years ago so I wont be climbing any ladders lol

Awesomenauts was so great

I know right? Criminally underrated game. Hit that sweet spot of "moba that doesnt eat an hour+ per match" and a nice sidescrolling twist on the genre. Player base just never was big enough :(
