If you abbreviate League of Legends LoL, how do you abbreviate CyberPunk?

Personally I type "cp77" when in convo with friends.

Yeah it would be nice if they made an RPG like cyberpunk. The traditional 5v5 moba genre is just no fun for casual play.

They had a 3v3 mode that was ok and a big circle map that was cool. I've been informed that's all gone now. Now the only fun mode left is ARAM.

Heroes of the storm fixed almost everything I didn't like about League and Dota. Except we need a 3v3 mode with two lanes. Keep all the minigame mechanics, joint leveling and lack of creep denials and you'd be on your way to a more enjoyable casual experience.

How can the game be so bad yet the things surrounding it so good?

[–] inlandempire@jlai.lu 19 points 2 days ago

Riot works on their game

Then they throw money at other - actually competent - studios to work on side content

[–] Sabata11792@ani.social 17 points 2 days ago (2 children)

The game is mechanically great.

The player base is so wretched and vile that it made me uninstall Windows so I will never be tempted again.

The porn is also good.

I played a lot of lol when it got out, as Garena was unbearable, and lol had reconnects and matchmaking.

But compared to Dota, that game just feels hollow. I get that it's made easier for wider audience, but still, it's very lacking.

Fair take, I agree.

Arcane was a marketing scheme, they didn't invest in there to gain money, was to attract players, they needed it to be a good show, that's what i think

[–] srestegosaurio@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Maybe but I would consider the best comercial ever made for skins.

The game itself is good. It's more a problem that 5 random kids are supposed to cooperate against five other random kids and many of them would be better off playing single player games where they can't blame others for their mistakes.

With that said, I feel flaming is less now than a few years ago.

[–] Halosheep@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago

The flamers have just moved to deadlock it seems.

Good to know flaming is going down.

[–] Vilian@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago (3 children)

The game is good, if you try hard it you go insane tho because you depende in 4 other people to do their part, and it's 30min of suferring and losing feel so much worse(that's why dota with 1 hour is event more toxic, and league of legends mobile is less because the game is simpler and 10 min long and a lot less try-hard), dota has a lower time match option too

I always miss League of Legends, it's a great game. It was when my friends insisted on taking it seriously and playing ranked everyone got mad.

I think I'm gonna play some normals today. Been a while. Wanna play Rengar.

I also don't respect other League players enough to care what they have to say, I keep chat turned off and I sometimes mute pings.

Here's a list of ways to make chat go bye-bye:

/mute will mute all text from a player for the duration of your current game session.

/muteping will mute all pings from a player for the duration of your current game session.

/fullmute will mute all text and pings from all players for the duration of your current game session.

/ignore will mute a player during this game session and all subsequent game sessions.

/muteself will prevent you from chatting, but will also notify other players on your team that you are muted.

/deafen will prevent you from chatting and will also stop you from seeing text from other players, but will also notify other players on your team that you are deafened.

On mobile it is really great. The quicker rounds and less accessible chat really do wonders for me

In my case while I had fun it became something unpleasant at times.

Very fitting meme if you remember the harrasement scandal at riot a few years back.

[–] hitagi@ani.social 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

There's a wave of casuals playing League of Legends again which I think is nice. Over the past years, Riot was struggling to get new players to play because of how complex MOBAs are and people getting completely stomped by smurfs. I guess the solution was Worlds and Arcane lol (and all the little new player things they added).

[–] dwindling7373@feddit.it 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I don't know the current status of League onboarding but as a veteran I attempted and accompanied various people throught it in the years and it's been painfully, criminally bad for the longest time. Both when there was nothing but the weekly free rotation to pick from and haveing to sink a month of grinding to get a single champ, till the more recent "we gift you a champ every 2 levels so you can actually play the game".

I think it used (still does?) to boil down to the delicate balance of:

  1. the attrition of the early grind is the easiest to monetyze

  2. the need for new players to keep the game alive

  3. the miracolous success of the game making no changes better than changing something and finding out you inadvertedly sapped the magic out of it.

[–] JPAKx4@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 days ago

Cmon, League isn't that bad. I'm only a little more racist and a lot gayer than I used to be
