"Lore" Doesn't exist to RIOT

It just doesn't. RIOT seems content with making the "lore" for champions 2-3 sentences long and calling it a day. Wheres the back story? Where's the connection players are looking for in their favorite champions? Hell, where is the complexity of sentence structure and length higher than that of a 1st grader? Seriously RIOT, the amount of laziness you guys show in every aspect of the game besides pumping out new skins all the time (which seems to be the only damn thing you care about), is more ridiculous than my procrastination on my 11th grade English final.

Um......Burning Tides. And I just completely countered your BS point. How?It proves that the Narrative Rioters ARE working hard on the lore.I believe they are working on the extended lore for many champs while producing original stories as well.I believe the Foundation team is working on building the world region by region.I believe the lore is going through some rehabilitation after it's long coma & will become more active on a regular basis.

Also,Riot is have teams for different things.The skins team is it's own team who aren't responsible for the action or inaction of any of the other team.

they are working on lore right now, like the shadow isles, they are getting a giant lore update, and in the near future, they are doing it to shurima as well, once they get every champion, and all the lores in order, they are going to work on the worlds lore once again :D

Perhaps start with Burning Tides, Azir's, Fiora's, Kindred's, etc.

They are working on lore. Lots of it. They're creating a whole new world of lore. These things take time.

I just hope you didn't get attached to the old world though, because Riot stopped caring about that one. They'll just cherrypick what they like from it and retcon the rest. Makes you wonder when they'll start their next retcon. Two years? Five?

Try writing a story with hundreds of main characters and on top of that future one need to be incorporated into the story that you create now.

They have lots of events/videos showing different aspects of specific champions. The majority of players like that more than 1 big textwall.

Just my thoughts.

I never really liked lore that much

but i did like the kindred story where theyd basicly showed that kindred is the grim reaper
