Fuck you, Riot.

That's really the only thing I can say to you. Fuck you, and fuck your greed.

I hope you go bankrupt one day because of a company that actually gives a fuck about their product beyond how much money it makes them, and makes games with so much quality that you can't keep up -- forcing you, EA, Activision, NCsoft and all them to actually start giving a damn or go out of business.

But, I know that'll never happen in today's greedy, shitty society.

literally the only things you can buy with rp that affect gameplay are champions and rune pages, both of which can be bought with IP

Yes yes, I know, you don't understand what an F2P model actually does to a game. Go do a bit of research, then maybe you'd understand why it's the worst thing to ever happen to gaming.

Hrd2H1t1 votes

F2P never hurts when the things you can only buy with money are cosmetic. Its a problem whenever you need to pay to play at all like in something like Candy Crush.

DrCyanide3 votes

It's not the worst thing to ever happen to gaming unless it's poorly implemented or trying to take advantage of players. League's actually one of the few examples of how to do F2P right. I'd make an argument that releasing non-free to play games that only come out with a fraction of the content they should on release, giving the rest as DLC, is a far worse practice than what Riot's doing.

Niyumi1 votes

DLC is along the same lines as F2P, true. But F2P is literally the worst model for the consumer, but the most lucrative for the producer.

Even in a game like League, the priorities are different: The base game doesn't make money, and all your income comes from the cash shop. So, most of the developer resources and attention will be poured into the cash shop, and the base game will be half-assed.

DrCyanide2 votes

I don't feel like League's priorities are different though. Look at the number of balance changes every patch for things that don't cost a dime. Look at Hextech Crafting, or the new Summoners Rift, or the new Client, or the rotating game modes. If Riot focused their energies on the "cash shop" I'm not sure any of these would exist.

Yes, they've got teams that works on Skins all day, but it's a pretty big jump to say that those teams are what the rest of Riot focuses their decision making on.

Niyumi1 votes

Look at how long it takes them to update one, single model and write some new abilities for it. An amateur team could do that in a week or two, yet it takes Riot a year or more. But we get new skins every patch just about, and they don't take years to make those.

Look at Yasuo / Zed / Ekko / Vayne / etc., being near permaban / highly played (with absurd winrates), but not being touched.

Look at the terrible coding all throughout the game that Riot outright refuses to fix (that Jayce hammer bug? They actually refuse to fix it)

Yet, look at how much work they put into skins and new champs (which also make money).

Amateur Riot use to crank out champions at a rate of 1 or 2 every 2 weeks. Turns out it was too fast to maintain, and a lot of the champions developed at that time are ones Riot's had to update or rework since because the designs just didn't last. It became a Quality over Quantity trade off, and they opted for quality.

But we get new skins every patch just about, and they don't take years to make those.

They also don't need to build a new kit for those. The team that works skins is separate from the other teams too, so it's not like their work slows down anyone else.

Look at Yasuo / Zed / Ekko / Vayne / etc., being near permaban / highly played (with absurd winrates), but not being touched.

Zed went from 90%-ish pick/ban to 40%-ish pick/ban with no balance changes in that time. Ekko they were constantly changing trying to get him out of Tank Mode, Vayne's been considered weak several points this season, as has Yasuo.

Your winrate / playrate stats also need a fact check, because none of it holds up for patch 6.21

Look at the terrible coding all throughout the game that Riot outright refuses to fix (that Jayce hammer bug? They actually refuse to fix it)

That cosmetic bug?

Ignoring the countless other game impacting bugs that get fixed (like Braum getting 100-0 by Baron with shield up, Aatrox being unable to cast spells, Xerath crashing the game) and the underlying tech improvements (such as the projectile system overhaul and doubtless others that are less pretty).

Lets also ignore that they basically rebuilt your internet so you could play with less lag, something no other game company has done, F2P or not.


Your complaint sounds more like "I don't know what's going on in the background, but fix what I consider broken now before you handle other things".

Lol this is your second goodbye post XD what happened before?

Niyumi1 votes

I never said I was quitting, if you actually read anything. Was saying I'm done trying, and am just going to give up and play all the free win champs, even if they're no fun.

And again, I didn't say I was quitting. I was just saying I hope Riot gets out done by people who give a damn about what they do.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votes

lol how would they go bankrupt if people keep playing their game? if you wanna make a change cant just say naughty bad words... you got to make a stand. by you continuing to play and saying "fuck you riot" does nothing but make you look like a child throwing a fit.

uninstall, dont play, dont watch lcs or league related content . the only way they might change is a large LARGE % of the player base leaves but that isnt happening they just continue to grow.

Niyumi1 votes

Anything I individually do means nothing.

And all the kiddies that Riot tries to appeal to aren't old enough to know how much was taken away from us as consumers, and how shitty gaming has become. So, no matter how much I talk about it, no one understands what I'm saying -- the few that do are just as helpless as I am.

Plus, with the way society is going, there will never be a company that actually cares about their games beyond their income potential and is actually successful. Nintendo was the last, but even they succumbed to the greed once Yamauchi and Iwata died. People just don't give a damn about anything but their status anymore.

So, what options do I have? I could stop gaming altogether, and be bored with myself forever and go crazy due to my anxiety, or I could play games I hate, and be unhappy about it, but not bored out of my mind or having anxiety issues.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votes

or find something else to do

school? work? social life? friends? family? relationship? so much more to life then this video game

and it isnt riot more then any other company... all companies are for profit that is how they all work

I go to school, doesn't take much thought or effort, and very little time.

Have a job, same deal (part time)

No friends, girls treat me like anathema, so both of those are gone.

Family hates me since I don't treat vanity as the purpose of life.

Games and books are basically all I ever really had growing up. I enjoy learning languages and instruments as well, but I already play several instruments and speak four languages (learning a fifth), so I donno how much longer that'll last.

and it isnt riot more then any other company... all companies are for profit that is how they all work

There's a difference between making a profit and being greedy.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votes

sounds like you need a change in life... and have more to look forward to... you are angry and hurt i get that... but change it... change your outlook and situation on life...

oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votes

lol yea with his post they usually do... i remember a while ago he just got to gold every one was like good job, etc he made insightful post and asked good questions every since he got gold and realize the game is harder at that level and he cant hang he has been more and more angry at the world

Niyumi1 votes

The game is no harder at gold. People have just given up on having fun, and play the champs that win with little to no effort. That's how you climb in this shitty game.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votes

2 months ago you werent this pissed off and cynical but somewhere between you getting your 1000th win and getting gold you became a bitter sour salty hateful person regarding this game and everything about it.

Niyumi1 votes

No, I've always been that way. I'm just getting more and more fed up with things, is all.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votes

so you always been hateful salty lil piss ant?

Niyumi1 votes

More or less.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votes

maybe that is the issue why you have no friends? no girls wanna be around you ?

maybe you need to work on that?

Niyumi1 votes

No, the reason no one wants to be around me is because I don't act like a normal person. I'm not some vain little idiot that runs around being moronic for no reason at all. I actually think, and do things for a reason. People think I'm boring, and I weird people out because I don't act like they do or think anything like them.

In public, I'm the nicest person you'd ever meet. Friendly and talkative, not rude, clean, all that. Yet, people go a mile wide.

you may be a nice person but there is something that you do pushes people away

Niyumi1 votes

I told you. I'm not normal. I know it sounds conceited, but I've been to over a dozen therapists, and I have an IQ that makes me behave very differently from most people (a high number, not low, but I'm not saying what it is). Some therapists call people like that the 1% -- usually great inventors, scientists or artists, but typically outcast from society because people think they're weird (Einstein says that the smarter you are, the weirder you get), or they just don't know how to act around them.

Couple that with me being tall and big (not fat, just big, stocky), and having really sharp facial features, I'm kind of intimidating to a lot of people --- especially since I'm quiet most of the time and always look like I'm upset, since my mouth naturally frowns.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votes

but even strange nerds who are big have friends...

and here i am trying to tell you there are ways and things you can do to improve your social life... if you are smart as you say you are you can become friends other smart people.

stop being so negative about life and everything around you

Niyumi1 votes

Not everyone has friends. Can't help that no one wants to be around me.

"I'm not the one with the problem, alright? It's the whole world that just seems to have a problem with me!" -- to quote a movie I like. :P

I get along fine with people in their 40s and up; they act more like me. But, people my own age want nothing to do with me, given that I don't drink, smoke or get high, I'm asexual, and don't do anything dangerous or risky. People think I'm boring, and since I'm so nice they think I'm fake.

But, you know, that's what video games and whatnot are for. Being alone doesn't really bother me all that much if I don't think about it.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votes

just a thought? if i may... hmm try some drugs and drinks let go have fun and get laid ? that dont hinder you being smart

Niyumi1 votes

I have no interest in any of that. Couldn't even force myself to drink or get high because of my anxiety -- would have a massive freak out.

TyrekGoldenspear1 votes

^^^^

DO NOT do what this guy above me just suggested.

It isn't worth it.

I don't drink or smoke or do drugs like you, so just know that there are others.

Only difference is that I am more sociable and act pretty much the same way online as I do off.

Good. Keep it that way. You'll be better off mentally and physically.

Niyumi1 votes

Oh I have no intention of doing any of that, don't worry.

I'm not shy, in fact I'm actually pretty talkative and friendly. I just don't go out of my way to talk to people -- talk if talked to or if I have a reason to talk to someone.

TyrekGoldenspear1 votes

I'm sorry but this just isnt true.

You say Annie is brainless correct?

Brand is a more complex champ but does a lot of the same things, therefore Annie is better than Brand? No.

As Brand I can bully Annie all day long, and I have more options to outplay due to my comboes.

Annie's only teamfight move is flash R

Brand is a lot more versatle than pressing R. He can wreck teamfights Harder than Annie can, becuase while Annie struggles against people who can survive the initial burst, Brand shreds tanks.

My point is that simple champs have an upper limit on their potential. More complex ones can outplay and are more useful in teams overall.

Niyumi1 votes

What does Brand do that Annie can't? Brand is a little more AoE-centric sure, but both do the same thing: Blow up teamfights. Sure, Brand might have an easier time in lane, and can do some tricky things, but in the end, they both mash buttons and instantly win teamfights. Why bother playing Brand when Annie is a lot more effective with instant burst rather than Brand's staggered burst?

the gaming industry and where it is right now is the direct product of the gamers and what they spent money on in the past.

maybe if we collectively as a society would stop giving the companies money they would change. as we stand now, they wont, because doing the same old thing over and over again is very profitable.
