Honestly Riot, fuck you.

I am SO TIRED of putting up with your bullshit, but thanks to greedy fucks like Beck, Ma, and all them, the entire gaming industry is now shit-tier, and nothing is even worth playing anymore.

You talk so much about balance, how you give a fuck outside of income potential, and all that, yet you do nothing to show it. You blatantly ignore champions that are beyond broken or just horribly designed, while putting on a big show about how you look closely at your game and make it the best it can be. The "pros" have played what, 40 champs out of how many now, 150 something? Nice balance there, guys.

Then you go and talk about how much you care about your game, and how you're remaking old champs and redoing the client to make it better for the players... yet you take years to do anything when even an amateur garage studio could do the job within a few weeks at most. But, no, you'd rather pour all your resources into skins, LC$ and new champs so that you can milk the whales some more, and run a skeleton of a skeleton crew for anything related to making the game better -- that's just how an F2P company works though!

And, on the topic of caring about your game... you went and changed to F2P. What kind of developer that gives a fuck about his game would EVER go F2P? That's a death sentence for your game, but a financial boost for sure. Matter of fact, Beck doesn't even play the game, nor does the co-founder -- and I can bet for damn sure Ma doesn't. Wonder why that is?

Honestly, a company like you should not exist. We told all the fucking brats 15 years ago that F2P was the doom of gaming, yet they just went along with it anyway, 'cause they could stop using mom's credit card! Now look where gaming is. Quality is abysmal, greed is rampant, and any passion in the industry is just dead. Worst part is that a lot of the kids in gaming these days don't know anything else, and so think this is normal, and how things always were. I really just miss how gaming used to be. Really sucks to have your childhood hobby just ripped away from you and slowly tortured to death in front of you in the name of money -- but that's just humanity for ya.

If there were even one company that gave a fuck about their game, and actually wanted it to be the best it could be and stuck with it, didn't cave to F2P greed, and made a great game... I'd quit this game in a heartbeat, and never look back. Sadly, no company like that exists anymore. Nintendo used to be like that, but then the CEO died, and the new guy was all about the greed. So, unfortunately, I have nothing better to do. And any time I bring up anything that is just wrong with this game, people freak out, so there's no chance this game will actually improve. And if this season is any kind of indicator, I'm expecting a lot more greedy suits having their fingers in the game.

... So, fuck you, Riot. I honestly do hate this game, and I hate your company, but any kind of quality or passion in the industry was drowned out by greedy suits, so I'm stuck here until either you kill your game, or a company that gives a damn comes out.

My god how idiotic your posts get.

Like you don't even understand "these things should take like a week!!!1!1" No. They take as long as they need to. Coding, making sure other things are balanced, all that: that takes times to do.

Also, Riot Tryndamere, the cofounder, plays the game. Hell he even streams it.

Okay, so here's my issue with that: WoW, GW2, even Wildstar which has a skeleton crew... any change they make has an ENORMOUS amount of potential interactions, given the scope of their game world, and League, relative to any MMO, is a speck. Yet, League takes more time to do the simplest of changes than WoW, Wildstar or any other game takes to do huge expansion-like patches. The coding takes no time at all, so that's not an excuse.

And as far as making sure other things are balanced? Ha! If they did that, we wouldn't see Ashe jumping to a 56% winrate, we wouldn't see Zed being pick or ban for months after the QSS nerf, we wouldn't see any of that. They don't give a fuck about balance, and that's very obvious at this point.

Also, Riot Tryndamere, the cofounder, plays the game. Hell he even streams it.

Playing for PR stunts isn't actually playing. Does he play all the time, on and off shift? And, either way, Merrill is not the CEO, that's Beck. Beck is the one who sold the company to Ma (Tencent's CEO), and all that.

Then why do you even play games at all anymore? Go read a damn book, watch an anime, or just about do anything else then.

Obviously gaming isn't for you at all if that is the case. And I agree with AvantelWings. I bet if you got hold of the code for this game you wouldn't even be able to figure out left from right.

Well, given that modern authors are trash, modern shows were made for stoners and morons, and just about ever media of entertainment is garbage now... it kind of gets old after a while. And you can only go back and play old games / watch old shows / old movies / etc so many times before you know them through and through. So, while I really dislike where the industry has gone, there's still nothing else to do.

Oh no, gaming is great. But what we have today aren't games a lot of the time. They're just whale-pleasing instant gratification simulators that make them feel good about themselves so they throw money at things. Very little thought goes into development these days; people just find some idea that sounds good on the surface and draws in all the brats who enable shitty companies. Look at any game from 10 years ago, and compare it to any game from today. 9.9/10 times, the older game has far deeper content, and you can actually tell people gave a damn about it, even if it doesn't look great.

And, I'm pretty sure I could figure it out if given a bit of time.

Supercell used to be a great F2P company...

Then the greed took over on December 10, 2015.

RIP
