Right because Riot has never been accused of being a terrible company

okay? I didn't say otherwise? I said they are rising anew - "in a new or different and typically more positive way," which is true. But go off.

what? tft is sinking and the last legends of runetera beta was weak on twitch.

And yet League of Legends is still the most played game on the planet and the most viewed games on Twitch.

HoTs was the red-headed step child. It was a mediocre MOBA that launched at a time when LoL/DOTA were (and still are) the kings in that space. It had a cool premise, but it was never going to be super successful. I totally expect it to just fizzle out over the next few Blizzcons, kind of like Starcraft.


That was literally my favourite MOBA and Blizzard fucking nuked it from LEO. I will never forgive them for that.

Hopefully it's an RPG and not a cheap point and click. Don't think they are very ambitious though.

A bunch of soldiers patrolling a forest when suddenly one drops. Then another. They start to panic, looking left and right as they drop like flies. The last soldier runs, trips and drops his sword. He scrambles backwards til he hits a tree. A slight rustle behind him and he slowly turns his head, peering into the shrub to see two glowing green eyes behind him ...

I'm in for whatever this is. I love the League of Legends universe and characters. I'll take any opportunity I can to spend more time with it, even if it's a genre I wouldn't generally like. That animated series they're making needs to hurry up, it looks so good.

I hope this follows up on the Garen-Lux-Sylas stuff that AFAIK is currently unresolved.

Aren't some the sexual harrassers still working at the company?

Yep. As I said in previous other threads regarding this, I either hope they got the necessary training / lessons that improved their behavior, and if not, are let go or move on quickly.

Even with that said, Riot Employees have stated that it is improving, and Riot plans to payout 10 million to women who were both current and former employees.

Riot Employees Say Company Has Made Real Progress Fixing Its Sexism Issues

In the year since Kotaku’s investigation into sexism at Riot Games, the 2,500-person company behind League of Legends, the company has crafted and self-injected its proposed antidote to its so-called “bro culture.”


Of course this doesn't mean they are some golden child now, but progress is progress, and it is clear that they are actually taking steps forward that benefit those who directly and indirectly affected.
