Replayability

The game is almost infinite. It has millions of players online and you will constantly find opponents. Obviously the game is more enjoyable if you play with your friends.

Difficulty

The difficulty lies in the other human opponents who know the game by heart. It has been around since 2015, and it’s one of the most popular titles in the world so there are all levels of players.

Violence, fear, nudity?

The characters compete in many fights. Never blood. When the characters lose, they are knocked out and can be resurrected or come back to life on their own.

Attacks of fire, ice, electricity, wind, magic… are used, in addition to punches, knives, firearms. Some female characters wear costumes revealing cleavage or navel. Sometimes the characters say phrases with sexual connotations. Some characters talk about flatulence, fart, vomit or use vomit as an attack. The words “b-tch” and “as” appear in the dialogues.

Level of language used

The Heroes of the Storm community is known to be highly toxic. Insults, provocations rain down during matches. Nevertheless, on millions of players, there is the possibility of finding positive and caring players. It is necessary to eventually find a positive group to of course, enjoy the game more.

Positive message

The toxicity of the community makes positive messages difficult. But it is possible to teach teamwork through this game, as long as one is well supervised and surrounded.

Minimum reading level required

Asked to read for a few years. Many menus and descriptions of spells and attacks, requires a good read.

Additional costs ?

The game constantly pushes to buy and frustrates players who do not have all the characters. Obviously when you start playing you have some characters out of the more than 90 available.

Minimum level of execution with the mouse and keyboard required

A lot of keyboard and mouse execution is needed to react in time and avoid attacks from opponents.
