Holy shit. You are hilarious. I know that isometric games are third person, but no one refers to them like that. You obviously knew what Werecat meant, but we're deliberately acting like they were stupid for using the common and accepted way to differentiate between isometric and third person games. I suggest you look into ways to get over your ego, because if you are anything like this in your day to day life I feel very sorry for those who have to interact with you.

Werecat said it's not third person. I offered a friendly correction, and you demanded I be less obtuse. You should stop criticising me for your decisions.

Dota is top down 3D. Isometric is a whole different thing that describes what type of projection is used to render the scene
