Steam Christmas Sale 2012

I swear people just blindly assume you are only buying access to dota 2 and don't actually read the thing. You are not just buying dota 2. You are buying like 15 items that would cost more than £5, stop misleading people by giving it to them for "free".

Well you're either;

A) paying for aesthetic items which is just sad

B) paying for more powerful gear which is just p2w

Neither one is good mate.
 
Ah its £14.99 now, I am sure it was that price before, it was showing at £21 for me (or there abouts).

Yh afaik the lowest its been on steam has been £14.99. I need to find some time to get some mods loaded up on my copy of it, as theres some good ones going around.
 
Why is that sad?
And I buy them to support valve, I got like 180 hours out of dota 2 so far, which is almost 5x what I get out of full priced games.

For that £5 you could get another actual game. Why does it matter if your helmet has an extra spike on it or if your armor has trim? It's opinion, but I absolutely despise aesthetic 'upgrades' in games, paying money just to make your armor blue... eurgh. RuneScape is the worst for it and it's the biggest reason I never go back to it for long.

Most people who would spend money on Dota 2 probably don't play anything else, its a nice way to support the game. Its no different from paying a sub for MMO in my opinion.

Well it'd be good if they released new, balanced classes though that you pay for, the f2p MMO's that do that have my respect, none of this rubbish that forces me to have disk space taken up with locked aesthetic content for Joe Bloggs and his super spiky super duper helm.
 
The game will be completely free when it releases with all heroes available. The cosmetics help fund development, server costs and the like. What's not to like about that? I'm certainly not worried about disk space.
