So when dealing with the restriction of trying express things without dialog, what better way than to just do it via charades. It is somewhat lamp shaded that they went to this route instead of just telling people. But I thought it a nice little effect of a way to teach someone how to use their abilities. Though at the same time, the control chip actually probably would do far better at explaining things than just saying it out loud. Because what better way to learn how to do something than for your body to do it without your control?

As for the towers, I actually put a bit of thought into it and who the ones controlling the towers really are. But most MOBA's you just teleport back to base and I put some thought into whether or not I wanted to go with something like that in this story. Especially when it comes to buying items. From a game play stance it makes sense to return to the base to make a serious investment like buying items or healing. But from a story perspective it only serves to stall out the story. So instead, the tower will take place of everything that would be done at the base, just slightly slower. Also makes it all the more important to protect. If your tower goes down you have so much further to retreat to recover, especially without any means of teleportation like just instantly returning to base.
