Bonus info: hon sounds exactly the same as "hand" in danish (hånd). This makes for a lot of fun when mates proclaim they are gonna spend the evening with it.

Playing with 4 friends over Skype/Teamspeak/whatever is the most rewarding video game experience I have ever had, hands down. Your success is entirely based off teamwork. Unfortunately, you can't really trust strangers over the internet to work as a team, and that creates a culture of distrust and fingerpointing amongst the random mongs who play the game. Playing with people you know personally (or at least know are good) solves this problem entirely.

I don't know I enjoy RTS games, but could never get into MOBAs, i think i played my DOTA2 beta for like a couple hours before getting bored and disgusted by the community.
It seems to fall under specific strategies and APM which is probably why they make for some of the largest e-sport events, but I just find playing and watching MOBAs boring.
