They do change course. However doesn't mean change is always in the right direction. Look at the pax drauma XD

The thing you have to realize is that most of the problems in the game aren't from intentional changes by riot. They were from changes that missed the mark and riot is unable to fix regardless of how much money they lose.

What makes you so sure that Riot is losing money?

It is a free to play game, so players who are leaving are not automatically likely to have been spending money to begin with.

A lot of Riot's money comes from in game purchases of digital content, out of game merchandise, and events.

They have been doing really well with their recent skin releases. Sure, the people who have left the game are theoretically likely to put a dent in those sales, but that is something that is difficult to track. They may not have purchased that content if they stayed.

Also, people who don't enjoy the current state of the game and have left because of it, may still really enjoy the game enough to purchase merchandise or participate in events.

As far as change goes, .. the game is CONSTANTLY changing. I'm not sure if you are new to the game or not, but they literally change something every few weeks. That frequency of change in a game that is as complexes as this, there is sure to always be parts of the game that are less than ideal. This is not a new thing AT ALL. Riot has had issues in the past that drove a lot of players away, but they fixed those issues in time .. and that caused other issues.

They will probably fix their recent problems, .. and there are sure to me other problems in the future.

I still really enjoy the game, and I like to believe that they know what they are doing. Keep in mind, we are publicly only able to see what is happening as far in advance as what is available on the PBE. Riot is sure to have teams that are working on changes that are scheduled for 2 or 3 (or more) patches in the future.

battle royale gore fest become popular so riot try that way and it backfired, problem isnt try something new problem is reluctance to fix it. market is oversaturated with "fortnite" games and they are games specialy made for that gameplay style so riot shoud go back for strategic gameplay rather then try steal pupg audience with mediocre product not designet for that
