EQ2 was EQ1 with the personality, character and most of the fun surgically removed. The fact it got flattened under the WoW juggernaut was well deserved. It's still ordinary even though it has improved a lot since release.
... I have no idea how that ties into the LoL / DotA comparison since I play neither.

I think the comparison doesn't work regardless. DOTA 2 isn't really a sequel at all, it is just DOTA 1 using the source engine. Yes, there are some minor differences of course. I like DOTA 2 better than LoL as a game, and I think it is a better competitive game in terms of the wealth of strategies and playstyles that are viable. LoL is clearly a better casual game (and I've played LoL more recently than DOTA actually) because of that simplicity.
But this whole thing was about competitive games because I said that Starcraft 2 was probably the best competitive game out right now in response to the claim that Blizzard hadn't released anything worthwhile lately. I plainly disagree, even if you consider Diablo 3 to be a disappointment. That isn't even considering the single player, which is well worth the 20 bucks SC2 was going for during this sale. The only disappointing thing about SC2 is that the custom games (Use Map Settings games, in Sc1 terms) haven't quite caught on the same way as they have in previous Blizzard RTS titles.

Yes I got the same one. I went to the Blizzard store to confirm it, but yeah, they were offering Mists for $20. That's a new record.

I thought I was going to buy it when it went on sale, but I just have no cares available. SWTOR is just a better WoW for me than WoW at this point. |

I just received an offer to return to Azeroth with 10 Free Days of Game Time plus a free trial of Mists of Pandaria. |
