Is League of Legends getting old for you?

As for my opinion I believe LoL is getting old. Nowadays I can only play like a game a week. Now this is my second full season and for most regular LoL players thats not even close to amount they put into this game. Now out of my 7 close friends that play league im really the one who plays LoL here and there. All my friends have been playing LoL for 3+ seasons. 2 of them are from season 1, and theyre even saying that the game is getting old and dying. Im not completely saying that LoL is officially dying its just I rarely see players playing 4 to 5 days a week like they use too. Now before you say that LoL is still bringing in a lot of new summoners you have to take in that these players prolly play from 1 to 2 times a week or even that. I feel as if the demand for playing this game over time has fallen drastically. More and more players who were once a regular are disappearing or falling off.

Please feel free to comment below because I really want to know what the community as a whole thinks about the game in its current state. PS Im bad at writing so dont be a writing critic

Getting close to the end of my fourth year, and I have to say it hasn't gotten boring for me. There are days when I want to go do something else or I can't bring myself to play another game for the day, but that's usually because another game has caught my interest or not wanting to deal with problem players.

Right now, the game is better than it ever has been. The balancing is better, there are more champions to choose from, the items make more sense, there's better art, story, characterization, etc. My primary issue is with player behavior. It has gotten MUCH worse the past few years, and now players think it's okay to be an irredeemable shit because there are popular League players who are irredeemable shits (most of whom are now personality banned from League forever).

It isn't dying. Competition is stealing League's thunder, but that ALWAYS happens, and it's not like political parties; people can play both Overwatch AND League. League as a business, though, has to keep the players coming back and spending money, which is why we constantly see new content.

People have been claiming the game has been dying since it started. It's all from a suicide cult that has taken root and gained power in the darkest bowels of the League community. People want to see this end because they don't want anything good in their lives, but to perpetuate soul annihilating misery and hatred.
