League Of Legends Story Mode!!!!

I was thinking, wouldn't be awesome to make champion lores apart of the game? It would be great to have a League of Legends story mode! It could feature chapters were you can play in any order. It could have chapters/stories from Morgana and Kayle to Nasus and Renekton. I really hope Riot sees this because this would be amazing if it became real! I hope everyone else agrees!!

What year is it? Does Riot care about lore yet?

Oh... no... Back into the lore cave

Lol. Sorry to burst your bubble, but that would require Riot to undo the retcon, and Jaredan and co. have made it very clear that that option is NOT on the table.

Certainly a great idea, but it will never come to fruition simply due to that fact, let alone the plethora of coding/balancing/everything else associated. The cost would never be worth the pay off.

You realize mount and blade warband had a Runeterra mod, right?

You also realize that riot doesnt have lore? they HAD a world. Now? Now theyve got stories. Loose and disjointed; each champion is a figment of history. We dont even know if the timeline is still the same. Swain could be the noxian dictator FIFTY YEARS before garen was even born.

With rito literally ret-conning their entire lore theres nothing for them to branch out on. Which is a shame, because runeterra was rather interesting as far as fantasy worlds go.

Do you know how long it's been since we've had 1-2 sentence lore? While this would be great, the lazy fuckers at Riot will sooner make chromas for every champion and skin before implementing something that takes actual work.

Nope not gonna happen, it involves A solid story for the game to work on, the Retconing fucked that up Patching and connect those stories together as a cohesive piece Each chapter based on one of the conflict meaning each chapter would be a different character with wildly different control scheme and gameplay Too much character to include Too much gameplay and moveset variation to code, design and model, design level, and meshing them together

As a chapter based it will just be an incoherent mash of different games placed together with minimal developement on each chapter and tied together by flimsy plot

but riot hates writing lore

I'd say it won't ever happen because it would be like making a new game. Take out the "like". Maybe if League of Legends keeps being so relevant for several years another company offers Riot the possibility of doing it, but I really doubt it.

Making a story mode would require the game being a part of the lore again though.

Pikmints4/17/2015, 5:03:21 PM3 votes

This is step 2 in making a story mode for League. Step 1 is having a story to follow ie lore regarding the world and its characters. Because of the lore overhaul at the moment, a story mode isn't even an option until the overhaul is close to done. With the lore work either going at an incredibly slow pace or Riot keeping us in the dark regarding their ideas, I wouldn't expect this to even be considered any time soon.

You're a few months and years too late. The games and the story are two separate things now.

DrProfVibeCheck4/16/2015, 9:11:58 PM3 votes

Maybe like a mini-quest thing when you unlock a champion? Idk :/

I would definitely love to play the Graves and TwistedFate story! summoner 31

Motajo4/17/2015, 9:52:39 PM2 votes

About half a year ago they finished tearing story out of gameplay. I doubt they're looking to combine them again, not even for a single mode.

I'll take it you may have seen this from Strife as they do a pretty cool introduction for new characters where you play them in a lore/story mode when they get released, but even if you didn't, it is a nice idea, but never likely to happen due to the nature of the lore of LoL being very phantasmal at this point.

I thought this was a MOBA?

I would absolutely love anything like that. I would happily pay for a full-on League RPG to explore the lore of the world and the characters I really like (Soraka Nami Leona Diana Gragas Braum Maokai Quinn Skarner Ryze Taric Varus Veigar).

maybe something like evolve's "story" mode. where depending on what side wins, the next match has a different buff/debuff for a certain side. only problem, you'd need to play a few games togther.

I'd like to see queues just for this, say you just won on a Morg team vs Kayle team, the next match you get a permenant aura of dark magic that does 1 true damage each second enemies are near, for just that match. if Kayle wins then there is a burn effect for 1 true damage each second for 5 seconds after each hit, non stacking.

or maybe like titanfall's story, where it doesnt change based on win/lose, but instead has a storyline a preset characters that you could follow. just as a fun thing to do, learn more of the lore, ect. and the teams can change each time then, you dont have to try and force the same teams trough it all. that would be long and tedious, and rough on those who want to just play one game as a time waster.
