It’s honestly not quite as wide a difference as perhaps you’d guess though and nobody is going to leave Heroes of Newerth because of the graphics. In the end though, DotA definitely looks cleaner, the interface nicer, the quality of the world and the textures better. DotA 2 definitely looks the better game, but, for a two year old game, Heroes of Newerth definitely brings it. The case of DotA 2 vs Heroes of Newerth, the call is actually pretty difficult to make. The first thing you notice in any game are the graphics, an instant first impression that can make or break your entire experience. Over the past few days I’ve been playing Heroes of Newerth and DotA 2 quite a bit, so I thought we’d take a look at the ups and downs of both games, and which you should play. What more casual players of the genre look at – and there are casual players, really there are – are graphics, ease of use and community. Of course, there are people that actually do that, who write guides and test balancing and a whole manner of things that I wouldn’t even know how to begin with. It’s difficult to try and suggest one MOBA game over another to other people without hours and hours of experience, measuring minute differences and playing with every character available, at least to a decent level.
