DotA = Failure in Life: Myth and Reality

Defense of the Ancient or also known as DotA has been the world most addictive mod game of all time.... The game is simple but addictive.... DotA requires skill, technique, teamwork and practice, which if you really need to play it frequently in order to be good..... The rule of DotA is just simple: destroy the base in a team of 5, by controlling a hero you have chosen... BUT there will be other heroes that will try to defend it...

BUT what makes it so addictive that people who play it have hard time in life?... Some have failed their studies because of addiction to DotA... Should DotA be blamed? Or the irresponsible people who plays it.. I think on my opinion, the player is to be blamed... DotA have nothing to do with this.. I am not saying this because I want to protect myself... I am a DotA player too... but I still excel in studies..Gaming regarless of any game requires discipline... You yourself have to withstand the temptation of playing more...
