Why lie about the reasons for changing the skull items art?

Not Colonel J··3 votes·656 views

We know you did it for China, as have other companies, and that you changed some other items too to fool your more simple-minded audience.

We aren't r%%%%%ed. You've proven you aren't afraid of lying.

  • LE re-relase skins. ("We've received hundred of heartfelt letters." You probably did receive some letters, but I doubt that's why LE skins are back on sale.)
  • Forum updates promised 4 years ago. (And not a word until why they haven't been done until this Community Beta.)
  • "1350 RP will not be a common price tier."
  • "We will price skins based on quality instead of popularity."
  • "6300 IP champ releases will not be common."
  • etc.

I thought Riot said they changed the skull items for China just like Karthus has a different splash art in China.

No. They lied out their asses.

Well I see that they lied about why they changed it, but China is a very big market, so I can see why they changed it the way they did. It is just business. It is like how McDonald's doesn't serve beef in India. Lolwiki doesn't beat around the bush and just comes out and says that Karthus has different splash art in China, because showing skulls in China is a taboo.

"Wow, we can update the artwork AND remove the skulls from the items at the same time."

I don't necessarily agree with it but I can see why they did it.
