I am the only one who thinks things aren't going all that bad?
I see lots of complain posts everyday on those boards, and while there are many things wrong with the game (ex: Lack of SoloQ, terrible balance decisions) to be honest League is still a very fun game. I think that this game's lore is very fun and interesting, even though Riot is taking too much to develop it. Despite Riot's recent reputation of being a greedy company, they are actually still one of the most generous game companies that exists, as they still give a lot of free things and many chances to get free things for yourself. The new Hextech Craft system is incredibly imperfect, but it is better than nothing; I've gotten two free skins from this system. Imagine if there was no Hextech Crafting at all.
This game is also still very fun to play, in spite of the toxicity in many battles. I have lots of fun playing the champs that I like. They recently brought back the Ascension mode, one of the most fun modes that has ever existed on this game, and believe on me, I had so much fun playing this that I didn't wanted to stop playing and it's sad to see now that it is gone.
All in all, League is still a very good and fun game, while there is a lot of wrong things with this game, it is sad to see only negative posts on this boards instead of positive posts.
