Lore has too much bias for Noxus now and is heavily showing Demacia to be awful
When will Riot ever make Demacia not so evil?
When will Riot ever make Demacia not so evil?
To be fair, they trying to make up for the time where they portrayed Demacia as nothing but good & Noxus as the main bad guys. The goal is to make both sides more grey rather than completely black or white.
Just because Riot is shoving in our face I mean showing off a lot of the bad side of Demacia now doesn't mean Demacia is completely evil. It doesn't diminish or remove the good of Demacia. There still good there.
Except for the end where Sylas killed everyone, the story didn't seem like it was making Demacians out to be bad guys. The Mageseekers, Hillfolk, and the Farmer were all Demacians and they were all just people being people. It showed that there are 2 sides to every story... and then Sylas killed everyone.
How exactly?
Demacia hating mages is 100% justified. Mages are terrible people.
Who is to say that it's Good vs Evil? Even the best among us have parts of their life where they had to make decisions that were good for themselves and only for themselves. Things others would consider evil, or greedy. Showing that Demacia isn't the fairy tale everything is 100% land is a much better and interesting standpoint to show and explore.
The lead narrative writer's favorite region is Noxus. So yeah, duh.
And I'm not joking when Vlads lore was updated he outright said it was his favorite region.
Good and evil are personal viewpoints. The actual reality is grey and dirty compared to the propaganda thatd have you believe otherwise.
Demacia vs. Noxus isnt “good vs Bad”, its more akin to communist-social darwinism vs. autocratic authoritarianism.
If you believe Noxus is being portrayed better, it says more about you than Riot.
I believe we all made a deal with kench when we asked for more lore years a go.
What lore are you reading ¿ Demacia being evil.. Hmm interesting.
I don't think it's unbalanced at all. Noxus has people like Vlad and LeBlanc, and Demacia has people like Sylas. What they are doing is trying to make each region and champion more complex.
Noxus isn't a "good guys" place, pretty clearly. But Demacia doesn't need to be that, either.
