Heroes of Newerth
Heroes of Newerth (HoN)A relatively new PC video game by
S2 Games.Released on
May 12th 2010.It is inspired by the custom map for Warcraft III known as
Defence of the Ancients or DotA by
IceFrogThe game is basically the same but with updated graphics andadded functionality.There is a small range of heroes that are unique to HoN anda range of heroes who are similar to some DotA heroes,most heroes are ports from DotA.The game is characterised by its bad community.Generally players will trash talk another player if he/shedoes not
play well, rather than offering constructive adviceas to how the person playing poorly could play better.Players generally do not give praise to those who do playwell either.It is fair to assume that the players who do this do nothave many (or any) friends IRL and who aresexually frustrated by the inability to find a girlfriend.Leaving you with the sad virgin
nerd syndromeMaybe if they learnt to communicate properly onlineit may aid their social skills IRLI'm sure someone who studies Psychology can come upwith a better Psychological Analysis of the problem players though.Other than that Heroes of Newerth is a pretty decent game.It's an easy way to kill about an hour due to averagegame length + set up time.
