1. Sell all of your Dota 2 items
2. Uninstall Dota 2
3. Stop watch / reading any video / post about Dota 2
4. Punch your face really hard when you want to install it back / play it again

Well its really easy really if you are a long time player of the game. I tried the new update once and lost all interest in the game after being completely addicted to it since 2012/2013. Now I am in the process of selling all of my items and I don't even want to get back into the game since I know they wont roll back the updates.

yah your right. and you know whats more depressing, that you cant keep up on a small conversation to someone because you use not to talk to someone because you just facing a computer all day long

[Noble.Dragon]

my only advice to you is find a new hobby that have real life object

[Grimmz]

if uninstalling doesn't work. then just get banned intentionally.

That is so true. I have spent over 4100 hours on this game and that equals roughly 170 days over 7 years. Guess I could have been a math professor after all if I just spent that time studying instead of gaming. Oh well I for one am really happy that Valve ruined Dota for me since it leaves me with such an incredible amount of time for better stuff.

To the OP, just delete dota and start selling your items. Once you start selling items you really are ripping a part the desire for jumping back in, especially if you cared about those items and spent money on it. Then give it a week or two and you wont really have any special urge to get back in to the game, and if you are anything like me you will be super happy for all the extra time it gives you.

almost 4 yrs ago what i did to conquer my addiction is i go to some net cafe and offer the players there a bundle of items for much cheaper price so i can cash out my money from steam then i bought a dartboard and darts and start playing and at march 2017 i try to qualify for youth dart championship but sadly got eliminated at my second match haha. playing computer games is fun when you're at very young age but over the years you grow up you realizing you jsut waste a big part of you life

Wow you really have a guide for it.

And here I thought I was rather trollish.

Wp sir wp *tips hat*

I wouldn't call it trolling. I mean, OP did ask how to stop playing Dota. Uninstalling the game is step 1...and pretty much the only step.

[Noble.Dragon]

actually that kind of guide will help those people so addicted to the game so addicted forgot theyre health i see alot of news on young teens getting colon cancer,underweight, lack of sleep for too much playing game

open console and put "quit dota 2". Congratultions you just quit dota

[Killemajaro]

find another game your interested in.

the main problem is there's nothing else out on the market that really grasps your attention. you've spent probably thousands of hours mastering this game, learning the in's and outs, now when trying to quit and play something else, it just seems pointless.

every game is repetitive - this is one reason why ppl keep coming back to dota. although dota is as repetitive as other games, (mmorpgs - daily quests, quests, gg. other moba's, just as boring. FPS - same map over and over they're fun for maybe 100 hrs then get old fast.) there's literally nothing else to play.

one way i found to kill a few months - take up a light novel or in my case, read every translated one on the market.
light novels - are chinese translated novels, that typically involve author plot armor, face slapping, and some dry sense of humor... but over all.. they're not too bad. one of the better ones is called Coiling Dragon... if your bored, check it out.

get a job. - will get you back out there in the real world unless u already have one, then get a hobby. my sis's hobby and her fiance (who she met on this site) is called poshmark, where she goes to fleamarkets, garage sales, thrift stores, etc.. and resells it... for like 5x - 20x what she bought it for. you can also resell on mercari and ebay..etc... as for clothes, you need to learn the brands and figure out what sells and what doesn't, as for items, just use ebay for reference to if random items sell or not...





or in the end you can lurk on steam forums about dota, laugh at ppl complaining and think "thank god i'm not playing that" and then 2 or 3 months later you'll get the random urge to play a hero out of no where, and then you start questioning why you quit/uninstalled to begin with... (what typically happens to me).
