riot is like the fcc right now
they will look at the comments, and even in the face of a majority feeling X is bad etc they will just say we dont rely on the comments from reddit twitter and the boards to change or revert X
but whats funny is where do they get the majorities vote from? If its polling players then how have i seen time and time again that they know what the community thinks, when all twitter / reddit / forums say otherwise and not me or anyone i know has gotten a poll by the times of most statements..
Even, if you poll the forums / reddit / twitter and get a majority of people behind something or against something riot will just pull the "A majority feel we should keep it the same...the ones you mentioned are minorities"
then where are these polls everyone is getting? how do you get to this conclusion before surveys are even issued?
and most importantly....who is this majority? a team of 5 people you hand select? because thats the only thing i can think of at this point if its not either a survey or going off your OWN boards or social media.
bottom line is they dont care what you think, they just want more money....and honestly if you think of riots intentions were after money, even if just hypothetically speaking, doesnt their moves make sense if that were the case? And vice versa, if they care about what the community thinks....wouldnt they listen to outcries, or at the very least have legit surveys AS stuff is released or hell even just better testing in general?
when both sides point in one direction, what do you do? if you see someone pissing on your legs and when you say wtf and they get very vague and say its raining....what approach do you take? because at this point its gone of for 3 straight seasons and it seems closing our eyes and hoping it stops isnt working...
at this point, im thinking they ate asparagus while our eyes were closed and its only gotten worse
....sadly nobody wants to say it but this is coming up on the end of the game and it sucks, but this is when the needle points to far toward the greed side rather than keeping everyone happy, doing the best they can for the best they can produce....
picture it like a guy loved games. So he makes a game company from the ground up, works with his son along the way...eventually dies and leaves it to his son....he dies and his son gets it and never cared for it besides the money....... we are at the point where we have the grandson.....sadly the last steps are being as greedy as you can till you either ruin the product or just drive people away.....
didnt mean to rant but thats sadly how things go, and seem to currently be
