But. What if it's not a MOBA, but something like "Savage"? I.e. a strategy where in both teams there's one player controlling everything on stratigic level (buildings, upgrades, production) and a dozen of players picking heroes and fightin in third-person action style. ... .... At least I want it to be that way. :)
If it is a standard MOBA though, then screw it, I've seen more than anough of them. I've liked the original game (DoTA), but now I begin to hate it's clones and remakes. There's too many of them already. The fact that this one is third-person and not a top-dow-view style game doesn't change anything.
(Btw, I heard this was going to be a MOBA game...)
