NOW IS THE TIME
For what? well it is time S2 updated, revamped, or completely made over the graphics style of the game. I know for a fact that since you first made the game like forever ago, you have learned more about graphics and what makes a game so appealing to the eyes. What im saying is that compared to your competition (DotA 2, LoL, and maybe even Blizzard Dota) this game definitely does not cut it in terms of aesthetics. By now you are thinking :impossibru:!!!! well, at first hon was the most beautiful game there was for me and i wanted to get a digital ring to put it in its digital finger and have little digital babies with it.
Now that time has passed, i turn my head to the other moba games and be like "hey sexy." and i feel really guilty about it. and why is this? well, in its own hon is really smooth and all, but sometimes the animations of some heroes are HORRIBLE (mostly the ones that were first created when the game cam out, like most dota ports), and the graphics are really eye hurting and blinding. even some sounds feel kinda clunky and weird. So what exactly do i mean? well im going to adress some of them.
ANIMATION:
Torturers animations: i mean seriously. this is one of my favorite heroes and just because of that ridiculous walk cycle and clunky feeling to it discourages me from playing it. When that hero turns he doesnt even move his head. It just does this weird sway across the screen. Im sure some will get it.
The new hero Berzerker has some pretty lame animations too. The way he auto attacks with the sword speficially really makes me wonder whether this guy is tough or not.
Blood hunter: i didnt want to say this but i recommend scraping all this hero's animations AND the model and redoing him all over again. ugly model, weird attack animations.
Night Hound: Same as Blood Hunter.
Soul Stealer: Not only the walk cycle sucks, but the first skill animations suck as well. Attack animation is good. Dont change it.
Legionaire:
Walk cycle sucks. Feels VERY clunky. attack animations suck as well.
Aluna: also very clunky overall.(the way she turns around is really bad.)
And other stuff i just wont mention now.
SOUND
Please. take a look, or listen, at your sounds. They all sound really clanky-like and metal-y.. When you click on the play button all you hear is some kind of metal or rock kind of sliding through something. this really makes my ears bleed. How come you cant make it the same as the sound the chat button, or the buddies, clan buttons make at the top right of the screen? these sounds are really sweet and i like them. Even the icons you used, and the ui style of those buttons look great..
In game sounds: the same deal. Sharp sounds making my ears bleed. all very metally and piercing through my ears. I cant play valkyrie sometimes because of the sound the auto attack makes.
Now, its not like im having a period over this kind of stuff, but i have realized that all these things does matter alot when it comes to chosing which game to play.
ONE LAST IMPORTANT THING
ART. Please, incorporate some kind of art style to the game. Make it look special. Dont just make a model and put textures to it. This makes the game appear really dull compared to the other games. LoL has some very special look to it,making the game look almost like a cartoon and DotA 2 has this reealllly beautiful look. i would say it has aalmost the same art style of team fortress 2. Dont you think you should be able to compete with that? think about it.
