Great game. Played the hell out of it. Done with it. It became too esports focused, not that that is a bad thing, but they left behind all the other players. They took away the funny style they had and replaced it with a much too serious tone. They even redid the original characters because they were no longer fitting into the world they'd changed the game to be. They started adding too many characters and not caring about the balance of the game. Though adding the new maps and gameplay styles was a big plus and kept the game from droping a few more points in my book! I still play once in a while, but I just don't have the heart for it anymore, especially with new MOBAs like Vainglory.

I beta tested this game from its inception and followed it faithfully until now. It had so much going for it, then right before it launched, they changed directions and ruined it all... similar to the way Tabula Rasa switched gears or Star Wars Galaxies switched gears. They did it to please the masses, forced into it by their Publishers when the Developers actually don't want to do it. It is such a sad thing to see. I continued to follow the game and play it for many months after it launched, in the hopes the new direction could appeal to me, but I just couldn't take it anymore. Don't get me wrong, the game is still very unique and can be very fun at times, but for what I'm getting, I'd rather play Unreal or WoW at two different times and get the better game-play of each than the dumped down, washed out mix offered by FireFall. The lack of content, especially end-game, is depressing and what was shown in the trailers for the game that got everyone so excited still isn't even added...

Now that I've started using a touch screen for MOBAs, I just can't bring myself to go back! The characters are very well balanced, the gameplay is quick and fine-tuned, the map is well designed, the graphics are gorgeous, and the fact that I can play it on my iPhone6+ while traveling on the train to work makes this game absolutely PERFECT! Keep reading, especially if you are new to MOBAs: Super Evil Mega Corp made their own proprietary Game Engine to make this game and it shines in its smoothness and simplicity. The fact that there are so little bugs, and none of them game breaking is astonishing. They are a small team, but they are very in touch with their community and they know what it takes to keep their players happy and satisfied. If you've ever played a MOBA, you'll get right into it and see right away how a touch MOBA is far superior to a PC MOBA. If you've never played a MOBA, you'll be able to ease yourself into it and you'll find the mechanics easy to pick up and understand. There are a lot of gameplay elements that you will not understand right away because it is a completely new genre for you, so take your time and pay attention to the other players and the mini map.
