Amazon’s game studio has a new MOBA coming out. I haven’t played a MOBA in nearly a decade, but I’m actually digging the alpha. And I especially love the industrial-Victorian the setting. I know Amazon Games has not had the best track record thus far, but maybe they can make this one work.

Guess he thought the game pitch was simply a description of reality 🤷♂️

I had to google MOBA before sharing your disappointment.
To be fair, it’s been a hot minute since we’ve had a new major release in that genre. I remember a time when every second game was a MOBA. O_O
My issues with MOBA’s is generally that there’s only one way to play them and be successful. You have to push and not feed, etc. Its boring, just like every RTS was after the zerg tactics evolved. No one wanted to build a cool base anymore.
My only experience with MOBAs also has been matches that just seem to last forever. I’ve played matches in Smite that went over 30 minutes and that just feels too long for a multiplayer game.
I’ll be very wary of this one. I was in the New World beta and it was remarkable how quickly they u-turned from “we’ll never have MTX!” to “hey here’s our store! But dw it won’t be our focus!”
Shame, really. It was a fantastic game, and gorgeous to boot. They just cared more about the MTX. Hoping I’m wrong with this one but we’ll see.
This just in, an Amazon subsidiary puts profits before all else. More shocking news at 11.
just checked out the game
ALL the advertising material is made by ai?? they couldnt even get ONE artist to at least make it look like they tried?
Dude it takes like 5 seconds to find multiple pieces of concept art from the game along with credits to the artists… https://x.com/marchofgiants/status/1965158726802788657/photo/1
Make sure you default cap your fps. You don’t want gpus blowing up.
