  1. Thinking about it now, smite had a real unique feel with those camera angles that made the game alot more interesting

    1. @nickonarwhal It was a tricky transition from other MOBAs, but it was definitely nice. It was pretty well done too. Unfortunately I got like 10 FPS on a good day which made it much less enjoyable.

        1. @nickonarwhal That was it's biggest problem, it was really graphically intensive for a MOBA and wasn't well optimized for weaker computers.

      3. @eeeie @nickonarwhal Saw my cousin play that. Only MOBA that looked even remotely interesting.

        1. @nerthos it was mainly cause of the camera angles (in my opinion)

          1. @nickonarwhal I enjoyed the mythology theme as well.

              2. @nickonarwhal He got changed a while ago into Kukulkan in an attempt to have more cultural variety or something. He plays exactly the same, just looks and sounds different.

                1. @eeeie i have been away from the game longer than i thought

                  1. @nickonarwhal I don't exactly understand why they chose to change a Chinese god for cultural balance, since Chinese was already one of the smaller groups. They should have changed a Greek or Norse god.

                    1. @eeeie wasn't the hindu gods who got the most controversy?

                      Wednesday, 07-Jan-15 07:19:01 UTC from web
                      1. @nickonarwhal Yeah. People complained because Hi-Rez wouldn't add Christian or Muslim characters because they aren't dead religions, and the large amount of still-living Hindus got very upset about it.

                    2. @eeeie I remember that they completely reworked a god because of cultural reasons

          2. @nickonarwhal @eeeie It looked more action and less boring

            1. @nerthos At the very least it feels a lot more involved than other MOBAs.

        2. @nerthos It's definitely a standout for the genre. As such a lot of people who don't like MOBAs like it, and vice versa.
