Why I don't play LoL that much anymore

Vardahoth·Dec 26, 2016·2 votes·2,933 views

I used to play like 8-12 games a day, now I'm down to 1 game every other day(ish). But when I do play a game, I'm kindly reminded why I stopped playing...

man, you got really lucky, the mods must be nice this week, I cant say i have ever had a thread up where i forgot to block out a name this long lol >.<

Wait. You can't use people summoned names in thread picks like that? So ass clowns who are ass clowns can't be put in check. How is that a thing. You use all the colorful words used there and the person putting you on blast gets banned? Is that for real?

I don't really get the point in blocking out names. Couldn't one just look up the match history?

You can look up the match history, but that is not the same as naming and shaming.

Besides the fact he forgot to blacken out the names, i have to atleast agree with him that i have had similar issues on playing LoL, whether its gripe from matches always being mostly snowballs from either side, major player salting and insulting everyone or just the plain tension because of how silly it gets compared to when i first started playing LoL or when i jumped the band'wagon on Dota 2 to search for new MOBAs to enjoy (which sadly Dawngate and Infinite Crisis did not last even though they at least had some nice potential on their own respective ends).

Another MOBA, Heroes of the storm just gave me the feeling it was like Dota 2 all over again in the progression mechanic feels (sizable grinding for 'account levels' and quite limited in terms of customization without a credit/debit card, thank god LoL brought in Hex'tech that really spicen up the game in my opinion still), namely boredom settling in quite fast whether it was due to Dota 2 basically granting access to every champion right off the bat or just how it felt when i compared it to various other MOBAs i played later on and what made them feel 'special' compared to other MOBAs.

In many ways League of Legends can be fun but sadly its either due to people wanting to edgelord all the time, blaming everyone else or overdoing it on the 'scolding' a player for screwing up in some form or way, to the point they might as well be using a flamethrower with a infinite fuel source on how much they are flaming them with harassment.

The major downsides to competitive games and ones that have been around long enough to get a good deal of players under bad internet'ettique when some think its alright to flame a person since doing it on the internet to them 'might as well not carry as much weight as saying it straight in that same person's face.', very sure someone who did something like that in that kind of situation could get thrown out of a establishment or even have law enforcement arrest you under 'malicious harassment'.

Sometimes for these situations, all i can say is it sometimes becomes useful to take a break from a competitive game like LoL if your in such a state of being sick of seeing that kind of crap occurring all the time.

That's pretty much my conclusion also, although I think there are other games more competitive than LoL of which you get to choose who you play with and who you play against (like lineage 2 low rate and highly populated private server before god update killed the game). In L2, thousands fight eachother to own a castle and race to get top gear to control areas in game that give best stuff (epic raid bosses, best leveling areas, and so forth...).

To me, LoL is a game where you have a 35% (# seems to decrease every season) factor in the outcome of a win or lose game. The other 65% is all luck since it's all forced randoms in solo/duo q.

LoL is a game that forces you to get the same toxic players over and over (I remember getting the same guy i reported 3 games in a row), and forced to work with/against these toxic players in a small instanced bubble. Whereas other games you can choose who all the toxic players are in the game, and never play with them (permanently ignore them, don't party with them, put them on your kos list), and odds are they would be kos to the server and leave because they wouldn't be able to level anywhere.

Also, I hear dealing with toxic people nonstop are bad for the creative mind and can null/dumb the senses (something I use as a software engineer). So maybe I should just let this one go.

ugh this is why if I ever reached lvl 30 im not going to touch rank. Rank is legit were all the toxic league players are and ruin the game for some people. also another thing this happened to me when I first played Sivir I fed the team, I was like a young lvl and i never knew how to play her and i thought she looked fun and whatever so I bought and chose her and i was so excited to play her. So everyone at the end was a huge dick to me which made me never touch Sivir ever again. But yea oh well those people are going to be stuck playing league until there late 20s. [zombie-nunu-bummed]

I remember days when even if there was an ap in lane ad fighters had a choice of what to build rather than giving up all kill pressure early just to survive. but if any one does that to a mage assassin or adc they get mid patch hot fix gutted
