DotA2 - Original Thread

- Voice acting for all heroes (including voice acting for actions that had no sound in DotA and personalized clips when certain heroes interact)
- Announcer reports which tower is under attack
- Regen at side of health/mana bars
- Unit portraits change depending on status
- Dots and Xs on minimap

Those are mostly just aesthetic details, though, and I think that's largely the issue. They aren't attempting to combat the steep learning curve and the inability for new players to pick up the game, they're catering to old players who want to see something pleasing to the eye, something "pretty." They're trying to fix things that aren't broken.
