So, one, where the hell is the RPG. You have all spent countless hours creating vivid worlds, now all you got to do is put it in play. (literally) I personally would be happy to pay an initial cost and a subscription fee to play an open world, level based RPG. Give the player a personality chart and let them fill it out, the answer could randomize a character with specific stats based on your choices. (Like whether you spawn a Demacian, Noxian, Piltover citizen, Etc. and if you built like a tank, or healer, or even a 'skiller' that is proficient in mostly non-combat trade-skills; or options to skip altogether) Let certain cities start with different questlines specific to those cities. Let us meet the Heros we see in League now, like J4 sitting on the Demacian throne as Open-world raid boss that rival factions can attack. (You start neutral but choose a faction at a later point; once you choose certain cities deny access to you unless by force. Allows for players to play all the quests, yet also play in a RP way if they like) I got plenty more ideas, Rito. P.S. this is a Semi-Official Intern resume if you looking for creative adds.

Making an RPG is easier said than done. To make a quality RPG you need TONS of ressources for development. You need to make a GIGANTIC map, put in efforts for all types of quest (if you don't want all of the quests to be generic gathering quest). And then you need to balance out the combat system of multiple classes thousands, maybe even ten thousands of different skills including all possible interaction between skills that you can potentially learn in the same class.

I think riot is not even remotly close to having the ressources to develop an RPG that satisfies our desires.

Nor do I think that riot is capable enough to manage an RPG. I mean they are not even capable of launching the clash mode which they already put in more than half a year of development time.

seeing so many of these posts after the new runeterra map was released. i dont think people know how much work goes into making a game, especially a good one. until like 2 years ago leagues lore was shit, so we have only had 2 years of them making good lore, add to that they are still rewriting lore to this day so the world isnt even done. and if you want a really good rpg like a zelda botw or skyrim we need another 5 years. its an awesome thought and i would love to see a league rpg, but its just not realistic.

well cheaper to make new champions and gemstone skins and make millions that way than it is to create a new game

Riot can't even fix their game...

What about an RPG with a whole new character as the protagonist and then include them as a champion in the original game?

Holy shit if riot made a side MMORPG with total character customization and you get to pick abilities similar to the champions abilitiles in game. On top of that all those worlds w dungeons, boss fights, story and side missions. Not to mention items in the game like amor, weapons and comsumables named after champs in the game with different rarities.

Cause it takes years upon years to create a good one, considering that they've had this established world for like a year or two at most it could still be 3-4 years before we see any other games set in this universe.

Please, don't say RPG when you mean MMORPG, it hurts my feelings.
