I don't enjoy this

FizzKhalifa20··1 votes·1,039 views

First of all, I wasn't too sure on where to post this. I thought Tips & Tricks would be OK? Please tell me ASAP so I can move it if it's not appropriate

But here is my problem, I have been playing league of legends since late season 2, and I haven't really been that good at it, I've spent 656 hours (http://wasted-on-lol.com) and I've never been so into it where I want to be the best, I play this because I just enjoy it, but recently (2 months) I haven't been enjoying the game like I used to, now I just play because I have nothing else to do, I even try to think of other games to play instead of opening League, I enjoy playing the game, but I don't enjoy the game. This game has changed so much since when I first started playing, and I used to have excitement whenever I got home and opened lol.launcher.exe but now I look forward to opening the boards and helping people with Technical Support.

I just really want help on how to feel like this is a game and enjoy it rather than just a time waster which I'd rather be sleeping instead, any feedback is thanked!

Play with like minded people. I know a lot of people who don't like the game but like the people they play with.

What do you mean minded?

People with similar goals in league. For example if you enjoy going all mid or something that's not standard find people on the forums or real life that also like to play non meta stuff just for fun.

Read my reply to TehNACHO, it kind of links into what you said

League is a rough game because it sucks to lose, yet takes a lot of time and effort (YES EFFORT) too become better at. I play a lot on and off. For example, I frequently just stop playing for 2 weeks after playing as much as possible for 2 weeks. Take breaks from the game. It is very healthy and you will have more fun when you are playing!

I know it takes a lot of time and effort haha, and the thing is, I've not played for 2 weeks now, and before that I didn't play for about 3-4 weeks.

And it's not even just the losing, it's just the thing of people crying at you because you're doing bad or on tilt, and when you're in a bad mood or on tilt, them crying at you doesn't help and makes you feel like s***. I used to use this game to escape from the real world because I didn't enjoy going outside and there were a few problems in my life at the time of me playing this for the first time, and if you're using a game as an escape and someone has to come and rage at you because you've done something wrong, you just can't enjoy it.

I'm going to play some games over the weekend, since I'm tired from school during the day (after school obviously)

But thanks for the advice!

The moment you get into game, mute everyone. Optionally, lower your ping volume.

If nothing else, turn off all chat. There is no purpose in it if you're in it for the game, not the people.

Be sure to try out new and stupid things all the time. There's always going to be a point where even playing your favorite champion in all of League of Legends will feel like a chore because you burned out on them. Your mindset should change from "Can I make this work" to "How can I make this work" if you get what I'm trying to say. I had a similar moment with my favorite champion Master Yi for a short amount of time because, while I was still inspired by Cowsep, I was simply bored of running through the same old Jungle route time and time again. I eventually pushed myself to play Master Yi mid and eventually came to master that play style, and it did a hell of a lot to relieve me of my boredom of Jungle Yi.

ThePartyLeader means people you can get along with, by the way. I suggest this as well. League is a thousand times more enjoyable when you play with, for example, close friends.

Thanks for your help, but the thing about playing with friends is that they all play on EUW (I was on but transferred a few months ago) and I don't like playing with them anyway, one is just rude if I make a mistake and makes me want to not play any more anyway and the other friend is so salty and cries over every little thing and thinks he's always the best on the team and points out little mistakes you do and if you lose the game he'll blame you and stop playing and it's just, I don't wanna play with them, and I can never find anyone with my mindset, they always are just too wanting to win, or just don't care enough, I want to play the game for fun, but not to win, but I'm not playing to lose because it makes me not want to play as well.

But thank you!
