Has the Story, Art and Sound team thought of creating an original game?

Your works have been amazing over the past few years. For a MOBA game, you have packed League of Legends with so much amazing soundtracks and stories and artworks into it.

But I feel like it isn't been recognized as much as it should be. I think everyone agrees that most MOBA games only create tiny bit of stories, but it's never a focus on it. If we look at Dota 2, the only lore it has are in each character bio's and quotes but that's it. It focuses on just the game and has doesn't have such an expansive universe to work with. I even asked my friend about Dota 2 and League lore a while back and said it was useless as no one will focus on it.

So will you ever split off into a different branch in Riot Games for to create unique games? Or continue making League unique with it's focus on lore? As for the players, would you guys like to see unique games for the company? Or just focus on evolving League of Legends?

I think they should make more games set in League's universe, because it's honestly really unique among fantasy universes. It's not the standard elf-dwarf-orc thing that has become really worn out, and they've fleshed out a ton of this world, might as well make use of it. Strategy games, RPGs, tons of different game genres could work. League won't last forever, after all, so might as well spread out their investment among other titles.

Nope they haven't. Countless times i suggested something else in past threads. It seems Riot is only bent on This one game, never to expand, and will keep getting ridiculed by other companies.

Inb4 some one reminds me about that Minion vs Mech game, it doesn't cut it. It's a board game, chances are: only some families may buy it for whole family activities. Riot seems that they are just going to depend on E-sports to help them survive in the coming years. It's 2017 already. I can undestand if it was 12 or 14, but since 2009 and Riot still hasn't attempted to make a branched off game based on the lore.

This could easily turn into rpg. The foundation for everything is there. I don't understand, when will Riot finally start turning into Riot games? I've been a supporter, as i like the lore of League of Legends ALOT. And I always await the day where it can expand. Unfortunately, they are content on just being in esports every year to keep them relevant and make new champs. Hell, they JUST made a brand new map design, unfortunately that's going to only be for The star guardians.

It kinda lets me down as a fan. I do give Riot money for skins and such, but i would give more to support an Idea of a new game that's not a mini game. But w/e, it's my 2 cents and unfortunately people don't like constructive critism around here and deems it Drama. Nice post though.
