But with all of this work on Strife, HON fans need not worry about that game being shut down. S2 Games has also spent time developing a deep storyline for this game, as well as rich characters with backstories. It also employs design elements that instruct and inform, providing immediate feedback for genre newcomers and veterans alike. Predicated on creating a more connected multiplayer experience that incentivizes cooperation, Strife streamlines communication between players with innovative, in-client social systems and rewards players for team collaboration, not simply placing highest on a leaderboard. Unlike other MOBAs, Strife is built entirely around the idea of a collective, contributing community. “We’re going to be the first company that has already released a MOBA and has performed an analysis based upon the entire education process of making and operating Heroes of Newerth.” “We consider ourselves to be a pioneer of this genre as one of the first companies to work on a standalone commercial title in the genre,” said DeForest. Strife will be the first second generation MOBA to enter the market. One of the advantages S2 Games has with Strife is that they’ve already done this all before. HON has over 15 million installs with 2.5 million active players around the world. I’m not exactly sure they know why they want to be in it, or understand why it is as successful as it is, except that they see the success of other people and they want to get a piece of that too.” Right now, it appears to be a fairly crowded space because a lot of people are trying their hand at it. Looking at MOBAs popularity, seeing our play numbers rise, and seeing the massive success of League of Legends, there are a lot of other people that looked at Defense of the Ancients ( Dota) and wanted to get a piece of that pie. “Shortly thereafter we saw Valve throw their hat into the game with Dota 2. “When we launched Heroes of Newerth, there was really only one other commercial title in the space, League of Legends,”said Marc DeForest, CEO and co-founder of S2 Games.
