Moscow qualifier.

Why? Because SoD is imperfect. Just as imperfect as the person who is trying to outsmart a robot in logical thinking. They refined it, they showed who plays Heroes the best – and then what? Is it the perfect game for perfect people? Compare the original and current versions of Battle.net. At some point, a person will realize that there is simply nowhere to strive for.

I didn't want to get involved in the umpteenth argument about Battle.net versus SoD, but it seems I have to. Eric, with all due respect, don't start rambling. The original and current versions of Battle.net are different not because Battle.net is bad and SoD is great, but because I, Stepan, and Old Man stopped promoting and developing it for various reasons. Surely you know who came up with the rules that 90% of the Russian-speaking internet now plays by and promoted them, even though the top Chaos players at the time just smiled condescendingly. And where are they now? We could have promoted Battle.net too, but it didn't work out; our life priorities changed. I'm just amazed by the donkey-like stupidity of some SoD zealots. Just say, "I don't play Battle.net because I don't want to bother with all the features, download things, and configure it" – that's understandable. But no, I don't play it because SoD is ideal, because I masturbate every evening looking at a portrait of Van Caneghem, the genius who created the great game. I, for example, don't play Heroes 5. Because I don't want to bother with the new features and get used to the 3D graphics. I'm not ashamed to say that, but I don't keep saying that Heroes 5 was made not by 3DO, but by Nival, so it's not the real thing.
