but at this rate i dont think that is happening at all. very dissapointed. worlds(esports) fucks everything up, even tho it REALLY shouldnt seeing as how the lore team and what ever team handles esports are totally seprate, but the big heads at riot wants all attention on worlds rather than give us a decent harrowing for once.

some of us do not give a shit about worlds or LCS. some of us do not want to be spammed with messages of which team is playing during worlds.

Well let's look at things, shall we? What did Burning Tides have?

A new map
A featured game mode with new items
Two champion updates, one large scale and one small scope
A shit ton of summoner icons
A little in client mini-game to get the above icons
A story detailing events in Bilgewater
A grand total of seven new skins

That stuff doesn't just grow on trees you know, it takes time to make, especially the trickier stuff like new items and a new map, and Burning Tides only came out a few months ago. If you honestly thought this year's Harrowing was gonna be as chock full of stuff as Burning Tides, I'd say you are a bit naive.

I totally agree with what you are saying, my friend. I think that the OP thought we would get a big event because of the Time Map of the Harrowing we got after last year's Harrowing showing that Bilgewater and anything around the Shadows Isles were getting more and more screwed every years and that it's not likely that GP and MF will unite to defend against the Shadows Isle again.

Unless they have been working on two Big events at the same time, it's highly unlikely. I say let the team take their time and come out with a great Harrowing event when they are done.

I'm just glad we're getting lore that isn't tied to a big event. I mean, when was the last time that happened? it makes me hopeful for future lore developments, especially considering this looks to be another story using the already established cast bar any new champs (except Kindred but sod if I know if they're actually gonna pop up in this).

bilgewater was only 1 random event, harrowing is a year long event and is expected. not only that but the lore around the shadow isles and the harrowing goes deeper than anything bilgewater related, and infact it ties directly into bilgewater.

what im saying is they had all year to work on it.

I agree, more & more game content is getting written off just for the 'championships'. It's disheartening that so much corporate greed is taking precedence even over community feedback.

Yeah....I for one was expecting something to go with the Harrowing. Instead, KateyKhaos confirmed that their idea of harrowing this year is Left for dead skins for Nunu, Jinx, and Panth.

So yeah...No ACTUAL Harrowing this yr....
