Dota 2 Lore – V >

I am a really huge lore fan so I’ve decided to start making some Youtube videos related to the Heroes Lore. I am sure that some of you have probably noticed our videos, but for those of you who haven’t, please check them out and tell me your opinion. Lore videos are rather basic – we take the stories presented by Valve and add some of our stuff to make them slightly longer and more interesting.

Take a look at our first video for Beastmaster;

And if you want, check out our latest video for Jakiro;

Compare the original lore and our “improved” version and tell me if we are doing a good job. Is there something you would like to see changed? Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Also, do you think if there is a chance to make a complete Dota 2 background story, not related to the exact Heroes? For example, season 1 could be related to the creation of the world, season 2 could be wrapped around the ancients and their Great War (introduce Roshan as an ancient general), then season 3 could introduce the first Heroes that came to this land destroyed by the Ancient Wars.. Possibilities are endless of course, but there is a slight problem; I saw that Valve has started making their own version, but it seems that they don’t update it too often. Would it be a bad move from me to take over the project from them and make my own version with my team? Tell me what you think!

It’s great, i watched it few days ago and was wondering will you make new one

LIKEEE! i can see those as a great script for someone to make a great video with the source moviemaker!
also ur narration is really good!

Wouldn’t call these ‘improved’ in any way. Full of clichйs and unnecessary changes. Imo.

Okay, those are terrible. Just a bit of an opinion of mine. The improvements mostly serve to make the stories more boring and mundane, the voice is really not to my liking, and the drawings. seriously? It’s okay-ish if you aren’t actually looking at the video, but the drawings – please do try and draw a line between mock epic stories and openly crude and intentionally caricaturic illustrations.

I don’t think I would weep if you were to deal away either with the series altogether or with the changes you make to the existing backstories. And as for the world genesis and all that stuff, I’d say that it is not the brighest idea. Dota 2 lore dota cinema youtube Valve are unpredictable, they might as well just redo everything or start piling up new chunks of backstory.

Plus, if anyone were to make a series about the world’s supposed genesis and the first Heroes, I’d honestly like them to be. well, not you.

Oh and adding some mandatory constructive criticism because otherwise people will dub me a hater, when you change the existing backstory, try to elaborate on what is already told and give it in greater detail. Don’t come up with loads and loads and loads of unnecessary, subjectively stupid stuff. Instead of adding new characters or hardly giving a damn about the original (see Bane), dive deeper into what is already there.
