Honestly, League just sucks right now - but it's all there is.

For some stupid reason, morons go and throw money at F2P companies that couldn't care less about their game or the playerbase so long as they make money, and I've watched gaming go from this amazing industry full of new, interesting ideas and totally addicting stories / gameplay to absolute shit that I don't even look forward to anymore. I don't remember the last time I was actually excited about a game release, or the last time I was actually happy playing a video game -- actually, I do, and it was like 10 years ago.

In League, I've always complained about balance. This game has the worst balance I've seen in an online game (and I've played THOUSANDS of games), and Riot continues to preach about how much they care and how much work they put into their game... yet I don't see it at all. When I can look at champ select and instantly know which team wins hands down, and when I know which champs automatically win by virtue of being money makers... I just wonder why I bother playing this game. I enjoy the game itself, but I'm just not having much fun anymore. Knowing there's literally nothing I can do in a game because I didn't pick one of the 30 or so viable champs just doesn't feel good, and I'm tired of it.

If I had anything else to do, I'd quit. But there are no other games that would last more than a few hours, I have no friends, I can't find a job, nowhere to go, none of that. So, I'm stuck here, playing a game that died a few years ago. The game we have now isn't run by the same Riot, and isn't the same game.
