I'm conflicted because I love LoL's art and sound design, but can't bring myself to ever respect it

In my other hobbies, I love compiling music and art galleries from various mediums I am a part of to immortalize them in my own way. Considering how long I've been with LoL, it would be obvious I would do the same but I can't.

I spend a lot of my time, nevertheless, listening to new login music fully when they arrive and cinematics Riot drops. Moreso than a crapton of people that play.

It's mainly I've been around so long and came to realize Riot is run by morally dubious (being nice), arrogant corporate suits that don't give a shit for their consumers, only the money and, knowing they have all the money now, feel free to abuse or neglect them as they see fit. Seriously, at nicest I compare Riot and its founder to Cliffy B and Epic Games as someone who played Gears of War and some of their other products a lot a long time ago. That's not a compliment by the way if you know Cliff and how he is.

I know there's a saying bad people can make nice things like Phil Fish and Fez but it's complicated with LoL.

Even if you think that the top dogs of Riot are greedy corporate suits (which they aren't), you can still find out the original artists who created the artwork and such. Commemorate it to them, not Riot as a whole, if you think that Riot is full of despicable Scrooges who laugh at how much they're ripping off the playerbase.

(IMO, though, while many Rioters may be blunt, brash, and have gone back on their word more times than I can count, they're generally reasonable human beings.)

It’s not that bad, there are far worst out there, and this game isn’t anywhere as bad as anything Cliffy B touches.

Follow in my footsteps, Riot will listen if we get enough people to leave!!!

Riot isn't listening to us, Riot has shown they don't WANT to listen to us, and Riot will continue not listening to us.

The only way we can fix league is to make Riot want their playerbase back, and this in turn means we must leave league!!

Please, I ask you to leave league with me so that we might reach an actual balanced game once Riot realizes that they are losing players!!!
