Why do you play if you hate the game's direction???

There was this same issue in the WoW community. I just stopped playing because BfA was awful and wasn't going to keep giving my hard earned money to Blizzard. Why do all of you people continue to post on the forums about how much the meta and the balance sucks yet still play?

Genuine question.

Common sense would dictate that you would vote with your wallet and not pay for skins, or support their "monthly users" metrics. Do you love the game so much for what it used to be that you support something that's not the game you want in the hopes of getting it back? Because it's not happening. Season 1-5 happened. It happened, it was great, but it's been literal years and counting.

Tell me why you stay if not to complain and have a void to spew bile into akin to Twitter.

Simple answer?

Because people feel that if they really try and bear with it..... they can at least get to Gold, and then they can feel good about their rewards and relax their play.

And....... then they never get there, but continue to think they can.

The game behaves like a job with the duration/number of games needed to be played. It's nice to get to that point where you don't have to treat it like one.

Just like T1 said the game is utter trash but we play it because we are addicted. The direction riot is going is fucking garbage, they just show that they have 10 IQ by making r%%%%%ed changes.

Yeah I don't like the direction the game is going but I do have the option to not play what they have broken (SR) and play the more balanced modes of ARAM and better jungle/diversity of Nexus Blitz.

So basically it all comes down to "addiction"? That's a terrible reason to play... You guys have got to see the inherent soul sucking bile it builds up in you.
