A way for players to personally experience this game's lore.

I'd love it if Rito came up with little adventure series...es.... serieses.... series? Idk. The pieces are there, put them together.

For example, you get a buddy and queue up for a lore series. Someone plays Jarvan, someone plays shyvana, and you go through a storyline map of their quest to defeat Yvva.

Or maybe You play Shen and Zed, trying to hunt down Jhin.

Just some small little 20-30 minute thing that allows you to play through important story events. Do one every couple weeks. Maybe make a series out of it where a new part of the series gets released every friday for a whole month (The gangplank/TF/MF/Graves story would be GREAT for this.)

I think it'd be a great way to make the lore more accessible to players, and I think it'd be a lot of fun to see how Riot implements their stories in gameplay form.

It would be absolutely amazing if this happened, but it would also pull pretty much every single Riot team off of what they are working on now for well over a year.

It's a truly enormous undertaking not only because of the scope, but because Riot doesn't have anything already built to make this process easier on them. They are starting to get to the point where they can make respectable PvE content, but turning parts of the lore into a playable version is something else. It wouldn't just be new maps and gameplay, they would have to tell the story through both action and words.

I'd love it if they tried it, and I'd love it more if they pulled it off, but I don't blame them if they don't.

YES! Nasus & Renekton, Aurelion Sol, Diana, Leona, Kalista, Thresh, Shyvana, Warwick, Varus, Ashe, the list goes on and on and on in regards to the amazing characters and beautiful lore that Riot has created. Let's get a way to truly explore this, either through gameplay, or a 100% lore-based show on Netflix. No E-Sports anime, either. I mean a legit fantasy series based around Runeterra. BUT THAT'S A TOTALLY DIFFERENT THING THAN WHAT OP IS DISCUSSING. I know, I know. The OP is right, but hey while we're asking for the moon, why not throw in some stars too?AurelionSol

Personally experience lore? I don't really feel like being personally disintegrated...

Well, there is plenty of ways to experience it. There is even a fun and easy way to experience it yourself at home. First start with a dish you really like, then swap various aspects of said dish until eventually you have an entirely new dish. Then take a nice big bite and realize it isn't the same thing and judge whether it was better or worse than the original. Then finally come onto a forums website and argue with others about why it is or isn't. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

At least something like the Rengar Vs Kha'Zix Hunt quest.

This is something peeps have been asking for and yeah, this would be a fantastic way to integrate lore and gameplay in a small but meaningful way.

The lore doesn't matter, stop pretending it does.

This does sound really cool, but it makes me miss the old lore. Old lore actually made sense within the game context-every game FELT like you were living out the lore, because it went hand in hand with it.

New lore, while it does have a lot of good stories, doesn't match up with the game in the slightest...quite frankly, I hate it.

Would be awesome, but knowing Riot, they would do it just to make those stories purchasable either by gemstones or Orange essence along with 10 shards availlable by opening chests only availlable by completing time limited missions that you have to pay for to participate in

One superbuffed GP (pre-rework) vs MF TF and Graves

I mean they have a little something like that already. I know in ARAM, if Liss, Sej or Ashe are on opposing teams, they battle for the crown. Kind of like the Kha/Reng one.

But it would be nice to expand this to other areas! :)
