I'm curious why they ended up focusing on DOTA. Prize money? Valve make the game particular amenable to machine interface?

- bee_rider 2y agoNot sure. Off the cuff, as someone who only played MOBAs when they were Warcraft 3 maps, * limited choices for actual commands to make, but still lots decision to make. * a very active competitive community * easy to evaluate win conditions and (I think?) somewhat easy to evaluate “am I doing well” conditions (like if you fall behind on experience you are doing poorly I think) So maybe it is a convenient genre.
