Evelynn's Reworked Voice Lines - Too much?

Lilybet··8 votes·7,804 views

So far, Eve's rework h as been great. New visuals, a kit that seems to be in the spirit of the champion; I was excited to see what she could do.

Today, we got to hear her voice lines. And I can't bring myself to approve of them.

The game has a T rating, however these lines and their innuendo are too much. It's like Mean Girls meets porn. The game has always walked a line between crass and subtle innuendo, but I think this goes too far. I'm the first one to join an innuendo war and the last person to shame someone for talking about sex.

But as official dialogue for a game that everyone knows a wide variety of ages play? Succubus or no, we don't need this.

Murdering kids? "A-okay."

Making sexy noises? "RITO SHTAP."

“I can describe an axe entering a human skull in great explicit detail and no one will blink twice at it. I provide a similar description, just as detailed, of a penis entering a vagina, and I get letters about it and people swearing off. To my mind this is kind of frustrating, it’s madness. Ultimately, in the history of [the] world, penises entering vaginas have given a lot of people a lot of pleasure; axes entering skulls, well, not so much.”

I don't think a buote from George Martin, the dude obsessed with underage girls and incest, is a good example.

Well it gives a clear understanding on the reactions the public has over things that seem out of place. It is odd that people are usually ok with violence rather than sex since sex is usually a more beneficial thing in our lives while violence is something people want to avoid.

The obvious reason is kids, but kids shouldn't be reading his books anyway. The kids argument works better generally though.

I was thinking the same thing. At which point does "Mild Suggestive Themes" turn into "Sexual Content"/"Sexual Themes"?

I agree with you, but Riot turned into a monster. I don't recognize Riot anymore. They went from Jekill to Hyde over the course of 2017.

OP is upset about some semi-racy lines in a video game... and I'm just here kinda impressed that Riot isn't entirely toothless.

Putting in the VO's they did was always gonna get someone or another all up in arms because "OMG, sex is bad! censor it!". But Darius splitting Annie in half with an axe? That's fine. Urgot grinding someone into bloody paste? That's ok. Vel'koz disintegrating people and talking about how he can only tell the females apart because of how the scream? Fine. Not to mention the many, many, MANY skimpy outfits worn by champions in the game, ranging from Janna and MF ro Varus and Braum. Speaking of Janna, her joke mocks making calls to a sex-line. Nidalee pole dances. All of these are fine. And let's not even PRETEND the league community doesn't use suggestive or offensive language in-game all the damned time.

The lines people draw are hilarious to me. And no, the answer isn't "disallow ALL of those things" either. Sex is a part of life, and these days it's one every kid in public school knows about... and every kid with an internet connection has likely SEEN. You do more to make things awkward and twist kids up emotionally by making it like sexual suggestions are so freaking dangerous you have to hide them from everyone. Unless Eve is blowing someone in mid lane, I don't really see how this is a problem. Are your kids so fragile that a woman saying "it's so big" in a video game is gonna ruin their little minds? Or is that only the case because you've raised them like some kind of psychotically over-protective lunatic and haven't just sat down and explained to them about sex and sexual responsibility?

So don't let your kids play the game if it bothers you that much. Lock them in their rooms and only let them watch old VHS tapes of Veggie Tales or something, because that's about the only way they're not going to be exposed to something sexual in the world today. Or you could grow the hell up and teach your kids about these things instead of twisting them into knots by acting like they need to be protected from the SHAMEFUL thing that their developing bodies are making them begin to want.

Hey man, all good you like the sentences, but imagine that I got banned for saying 'what the hell' and 'fuck me' after doing something wrong (not flaming anyone, just saying it on chat to let the stress out) and answer was 'THE GAME IS 13+ SO YOU SHOULDN'T SAY SUCH THINGS'. Aaaaaaand now they add Eve who is all about sex.

The Whamboozler1 votes

Well to be fair, that ban is stupid and likely the result of you hitting some keywords that the mighty ban-bot looks for when deciding if you're "toxic" or not. The ban bot is stupid as hell...

But that doesn't mean we should make everything as stupid as the ban bot, it means we should fix the ban bot and let Eve ponder the size and shape of rods all she likes.

To be fair she doesn't actually sex anything XD she just implies it to torture them it seems

You got it wrong: that kind of cringey dialogue is exactly what kids want. Not adults.

Profirix4 votes

They are mostly innuendo...younger children won't understand it and with how this generation is going, it really isn't that far off from what they deal with in a daily basis.

Buying void staff "think of all the places you could put this... " best line

People who are making these posts complaining about Eve's voice are the kinds of people who report you for complaining about their plays or for making a harmless joke about them. You know the ones.

Part of League's official ESRB rating is 'Mild Suggestive Themes'. Her lines fit in the category. If you were an innocent human, like a kid, you would have no idea there was anything behind it, just accepting they were random voice lines. No where is she like 'LET ME SIT ON YOUR FACE AND CUM ON YOU DADDY'

Lilly no offence Stop QQIng it fits the character ontop of that why cant 1 champion in the game have this ? hmm Hmm? i knew someone like you would come out of the wood works sooner or later

Well as a dedicated eve main and i pretty much played this game mostly because of her, i agree with you, they completely fucked up her identity and made her to some kind of shadows slut, we did not need another ahri v2, charm, flirting, slutish character - its totally out of her, they did again what they do best, fuck everything up, pretty much there is no Evelynn anymore, its a completely new champion, the old one we knew got deleted like with many of their reworks, why do they bother, leave them be and create their new champion, Rip trundle, sion, urgot, evelynn and many more..

Targus1651 votes

Honestly give me one reason why this is a bad thing? You have a problem with sex, but you have no problem with the idea of a little girl being torn apart by actual demons. "Your argument makes so much sense."

How is it sexism? Do you even know its meaning? All i can say they did not let graves have his cigar, but this is fine? How hypocritical it is from riot.
