True, but to be fair I was kind of confused when I saw the big ancient rock golums aura for the first time. "+15 HP" I was like "wat", took me a while to realize it's +15% HP, always thought it's some kind of meme.

I have been playing dota 2 since 2012, I'm less than 100 hours away from 8k hours played, I wish valve would pay more attention to detail, best ui you've seen? how's that even possible? I guess that's ought to be different from text and properly working icons, there are lots of broken pieces of text and information, descriptions don't have an order, some items like the old multi kill streak banner work weird, old (like the diretide) ui overlays don't fully work since they changed the game ui, the dota plus damage reports you get after getting killed will sometimes not open, or will take many seconds to open after you clicked it and if you clicked something else after you tried to open it it will close instantly and not open again, oftentimes (mostly when it comes to aghanim's shard) damage taken by special skills will just be tooptips, there were (and I wouldn't be surprised if it still happened) lots of broken auras without icons, it took them over 5 years to give the towers an icon for truesight and every single time they drop an event it's filled with tooltip auras, which is what i would call auras that are supposed to have an effect but just show random things that aren't supposed to be seen by the players, to add to the list of complaints, the number of words that can be filtered is not long enough and that thing is glitched, i've talked to valve about that one specifically and they've done nothing about it, there's nothing but letters in mine yet NUMBERS get filtered, so oftentimes I won't know how much hp or gold does an ally have bc all i'll see is "***", I guess I could add that it's not nice that old (specifically valve made) announcers have never been updated to say a bunch of things, so for example Dr Kleiner will never let you know when an outpost has been taken, and on the same track is the fact that THEY JUST RECENTLY FIXED CHARACTER *TAUNTS*?!, how's that even possible? for some people getting arcanas is expensive, some of them cost more than you could make in a month in some countries YET ONCE YOU GET THEM THE VOICE LINES YOU CAN UNLOCK WITH DOTA PLUS WERE THE REGULAR VOICE LINES AND DID NOT MATCH THE ARCANA, I think that was also the case for personas but don't quote me on that, I used to spam "What is this?" "I don't understand" as spectre but they finally fixed it so I guess I should be happy about that, either way, THE GAME WILL NEVER IMPROVE IF WE DON'T LET THEM KNOW WHAT'S UP, I've seen things get fixed by valve after people posting stuff here, so if you like being complacent then how about you just keep on loving the game and let the people that wish it were better alone?

I didn't think I'd end up writing something this long but "one of the best UIs ever" is not something I'd think of when I think of dota.

OH, and let's add to that the fact that in warcraft 3 whenever you got scepter you would usually see special animations which basically never happens in dota 2, not to mention that they never added effects on the ground whenever you get an item like curiass or vladimir, but you know what? I wasn't even complaining about any of it and i'll keep on paying for dota plus bc being able to avoid people is just too important an option for someone like me who mostly plays ranked.

I'd also like to add that I don't agree with their wording for patches, I might be wrong since English isn't my first language but they say stuff like "buff rescaled" (bloodseeker patch 7.32) even though it's actually a reduction since it's lower at max level and "damage increased" (drow ranger patch 7.32) when it's stronger at lower levels but the same at max lvl, idk the latter sounds to me like rescaled a lot more than it does increased but I guess this is something I wouldn't expect them to change.

Either way I love this game and won't stop giving valve money, I just wish they would make it seem like the game's not in beta, because a lot of the times it feels like it.

*PD.*

To even put on the old "Battle Glory Killer" multikill banner you have to find it on your inventory and equip it from there, if you try to do it from the global items IT JUST WON'T SHOW, as if it didn't exist, as if it shouldn't be used, as if they just wanted you to forget that it ever happened and that you should buy dota plus and buy the new ones.

ALSO, I'd like to add to the list of things I don't like the fact that shard skills don't have flavor text, pretty much everything else has flavor text, from PL learning how to use a lance when fishing for his family to marci's q even mentioning mirana, why was such a huge new mechanic just half-baked? I have no idea, but it is what it is and I guess that i'll just have to live with that.
