@Meddler You Deem Karma VU a Success?

Vanjie··3 votes·1,313 views

Get out of here. I nust read your blog and you have the nerve to say a visual update that is incomplete, bad taunts, a bad VO, and no proper running animation, is successful? I mean it is so outdated and half worked on. Why are you saying the kit and VU are a success? It's not. It's incomplete. Are you guys that delusional?

"We are also going to continue retroactively updating the skin splashes of past VGUs and VUs that didn’t include them the first time around. This includes nearly every rework before Poppy. We’ve hit a lot of them already (Trundle, Tristana, Nidalee) but there are several left (currently, the next one slated is Karma)".

Riot is basically acknowledging the bland and incomplete VU by making splash art to reflect it. They are taking a bland concept with no theme, no character, no design, incomplete visuals, an outdated model, no proper running animation and much more . . . . on all of the skins and champion splash art that reflect an incomplete visual update. Riot is acknowledging their half worked on content and creating splash arts for it.

Riot isn't going back and giving us a new model. Riot isn't using the existing model to give us a proper running animations, new taunts, a new VO, an updated model that reflects current work, and Karma with an actual theme or character . . . . no. They are giving us HALF WORKED ON CONTENT AND CREATING MORE CONTENT TO REFLECT IT. If you are not going to finish what you started, don't bother working on anything else until you rectify your mistakes. It's been 4 years and you have YET to do that Riot games. Delusional Riot games employees.

The way you phrase stuff kind of undermines your argument. That being said, she's an older champ who already got her VU update. Sort of like how orianna still stands still when recalling and has no run animation. But I play her anyway because in general, the gameplay matters more that what the model does as a fancy trick.

No I did not. It is exactly how I worded it. Riot is acknowledging a poorly executed visual update they did 4 years ago, as a success and giving us splash arts to reflect that poor work. How hard is that to understand?

Don't compare Karma's visual update to Ori's. We know Ori is a robot and she at least has a proper running animation. She has much more character and a theme . . . . than Karma has. These incoompetent Red names cannot and have not done it for Karma. They can highlight there botched visual update that is half worked on and poorly executed . . . and not listen to any player feedback for 4 years now. Congrats, she doesn't' have a proper running animation or the dragons they boast about in her lore. Karma VU a success! Let's create splash arts to reflect this poorly executed work. You know because we do not communicate at all with the Karma community regarding anything and we also give her half worked on content. We care though . . . remember? Imbeciles.

I was referring more to this:

Riot isn't going back and giving us a new model. Riot isn't using the existing model to give us a proper running animations, new taunts, a new VO, an updated model that reflects current work, and Karma with an actual theme or character . . . . no.

And you really hurt your argument when you call people things like imbeciles. No one will want to listen to someone who resorts to petty insults to prove their point.

They don't respond when you give them suggestions and comments for four years either. They don't respond to positive feedback as well. No department at Riot Games communicates about Krama at all. Excuse me if I am little rude to a bunch of uncommuniative apes.

But they also don't go around insulting people. I'm going to listen to riot because at least when they reply they treat others with respect.

Vanjie1 votes

Like they respect Karma? Stop responding to me if you want me to be this high and righteous person. It's not going to happen. I have zero respect and faith in RIot's ability to do anything decent for Karma. I can care less what happens to these morons. I wish some of them would lose a job, so we can replace them with people who actually care about Karma. The balance and update team are a bunch of butt hugging Trump lovers.

midnight oil242 votes

Listen closely: Karma already got a VU update. She'll probably get another one someday, but there are those who deserve their VU updates far more than her.

And do you know how horrible it is to wish that someone would lose their job? That's a messed up desire.

Vanjie1 votes

Damn right it is. I wish a lot of these Balance and Update Developers lost their jobs. They clearly do not know what the heck they are doing. They say one thing . . . do another . . . wait four to five weeks to nerf something small . . . . . come up with excuses as to why they refuse to work on someone they botched for 4 years now . . . and then have the nerve to tell people they care about Karma. You don't care one bit.

I am listening closely. Even when they finish all of what they are doing, Camile has a better chance at getting a VU than Karma does. It's just a fact at this point. Riot games is either racist against Karma because they don't like her ethnicity and her gender, or they just don't care about the champion period and want to give Ryze another 7 updates and work on Ekko every single patch.

Okay, now I'm baffled. How did you go from "Riot is a land of ignorant fucks who don't know how to do their jobs" to "Riot is racist and sexist because they're not giving an indian woman a shiny new look that has no impact on gameplay"?

Vanjie1 votes

It does have an impact on her gameplay. If she has a lore that explains to us about dragons and her being the heart of Ionia, don't you think it should be reflected in her visuals? It's not. She's not a leader. She has no dragons.

Sure did. What excuse does Riot have for not communicating and working on Karma for 4 years now? At least communicate with us. Riot Games is racist towards females of color. Just look at the treatment towards Illoai. Riot. Is. Racist.

She has the dragon crest. It's the ionian symbol that floats around her.

Second, how is illaoi racist? This is the weirdest argument ever.

her model is great, not every champ can have top tier quality we have no, be greatful she looks decent

her vo is great but her taunts could use work

run animation would be nice

you dont have to cry so hard man most things you want are tiny and not that vital

Vanjie1 votes

Her model is terrible. Yes, every champion can and should have a top tier quality VU. The fact that Riot dumpsters certain champions that are not Ekko, Jinx, or Ryze . . . . clearly tells us who they care about. Karma cannot even get a damn running animation. She doesn't look decent . . . she looks incomplete.

Her VO is terrible. Her taunts need work.

Yeah I do. It is passive little kids like you who are ruining her. Let me guess, you don't play Karma. You don't care about her visual update. You don't care about the fact that what she had before actually had a theme and character. You don't care to even acknowledge any arguments or questions when someone turns on Riot games. You are too much of a fanboy and can probably care less what happens to Karma. Yes we are passionate. Yes we are whiners. We care too much about a champion that continues to be ignored and receive half worked on content . . . . like the winter wonder skin she is receiving that is half worked on as well and doesn't reflect the splash art or the model.

i do play karma alot, but i have my own voice pack for her

her kit was boring before her q was literally the same as annie w, old tether was too gimicky and her most damaging thing was her sheild not that fun

her model is not that bad and it was made in 2013 so its pretty good compared to others

Oglaf1 votes

I picked her up now that she is on sale, and I find her to be of a decent quality. I mean sure, she's not as fancy as the newer Champions but none of the old ones that were updated really are.

My only gripe with her is probably how all her alternative skins are, in my opinion, far faaaaaaaar worse than her original one. But hey, at least that saves me RP so...

really? i really like sakura and if it had the pink particles from one of her skins that would be awesome

Had it actually been pink rather than lime green, maybe.
