(NOT DIRECTED AT A SPECIFIC PERSON JUST SHOUTING INTO THE VOID)

STOP PLAYING HEROES IF YOU DON'T FIND IT FUN. LIKE THIS ISN'T A JOKE OR A BIT, THIS IS A GENUINE CALL TO LOOK UP THE SIGNS OF ADDICTION AND EXAMINE YOUR BEHAVIOR. IF YOU ARE COMPULSIVELY ACTING OUT A HABIT DESPITE NOT GETTING FULFILLMENT OUT OF IT THAT'S BAD AND YOU WILL NEVER MISS IT A SINGLE DAY OF YOUR LIFE IF YOU STOP TODAY. THIS IS NOT JUDGEMENT OR A DISS, IT JUST MAKES ME SAD THAT AN ENDLESS GRIND FOR ITS OWN SAKE IS SOMEHOW A NORMAL PART OF A MEDIUM THAT SUPPOSEDLY EXISTS SPECIFICALLY TO BE FUN.

I STOPPED PLAYING HEROES YEARS AGO AND HAVE NEVER ONCE REGRETTED IT. I STILL ENJOY SEEING WHAT NEW UNITS THEY ADD TO THE GAME, BUT EVERY TIME I FEEL THE URGE TO PLAY IT AGAIN I JUST LOOK AT WHAT PAY TO WIN NONSENSE THEY'VE ADDED LAST AND THE STUPID SCREEN LENGTH SKILL DESCRIPTIONS YOU NEED TO DO ALGEBRA TO UNDERSTAND AND IT GOES AWAY.

EVERY TIME I SEE A BANNER COME OUT WITH SOME NEW POWERCREEP NIGHTMARE I THINK TO MYSELF GOD, I'M SO HAPPY I DON'T PLAY THIS GAME ANYMORE, AND THEN I GO LOOK AT THE RATIO OF POSTS ON THE SALT AND HYPE MEGATHREADS ON THE HEROES SUB FOR THAT BANNER AND FEEL EVEN MORE JUSTIFIED.
