EFFORTPOST Riot has officialy put League in maintenance mode and g*mers are not happy

Background

With the start of the upcoming thirteenth season of Riot's classic MOBA game League of Legends tomorrow the community is split upon the argument if Riot is even actively developing new content for the game or rather dragging the game over the line relying on the success of their other popular games namely Valorant and Wild Rift or on the fantastic animated series Arcane. As recent developments in League's history featured a trite pre-season, a new provider for the very important SEA region and the departure of a beloved host (not sjokz so doesn't matter) of the LCS coupled with switching the schedule of the aforementioned professional league to a completely inaccessible time slot in the afternoon, people are concerned about the future of the game in the west. It's hard to gauge actual facts as Riot doesn't release their numbers but from the eye test alone you'd immediately come to the conclusion that League of Legends is heading south. While many people (casual and professional g*mers) have said this for a long time now, the recent developments have made things much worse and I'll tell you why:


Not officially announcing the start of the season until a couple days prior

While this tweet offers a timetable of the season start for each major and minor region you'd think it's kinda weird for a game of this size to not have a concise and clear answer until 2 days before the season start. Players had to figure out the exact date for the start of the season for weeks prior relying on vague he-said-she-said information on twitter or other inherently unreliable sources.

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/107m6ej/official_ranked_start_times_all_regions_by/j3nqayd/

The fact that we have to find out like this after deducing the fricking SEASON START like Hercule fricking Poirot is utterly ridiculous

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/107m6ej/official_ranked_start_times_all_regions_by/j3n51w2/

again we have to look for it on twitter, nothing in the client etc. its so fking disgusting

Is the new events tab we got for no reason (that is entirely more clunky than the event rewards page being in your rewards tab) not enough for you? You think they could somehow manage fixing the client and adding useless shit no one asked for at the same time lol? Nah, they only had the manpower to shift the events page to its own clunky tab that you can barely see more than 2 rows worth of cosmetics in.

Just be thankful that useless new events page didn’t end up breaking the client further, we could have lost the entire runes page as a result of adding that new tab.

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/107m6ej/official_ranked_start_times_all_regions_by/j3n64id/

And the official insta has a countdown with 12h in their story, some say the new ranked season already started in Korea. I just don't know anymore...

For some reason Riot already started the season and Korea and had to reset all already played games (see here for example).


Not following up on their promises

This headline is intentionally chosen to be opaque mainly due to the fact that I am incapable of finding all broken promises but here are some prime examples of Riot failing to deliver:

  • Removing Smurf Queue: SmurfQ was a method Riot used in the previous season to combat the menace of smurfs (stronger players playing on new/stolen/friends' accounts against weaker players) in ranked games although they failed to figure out how to remove previously inactive account from this queue meaning if you were a returning player (or any other player with a high discrepancy between your MMR and your rank) you'd end up in full smurf lobbies which was an absolutely miserable experience over and over again. Some people claim it took them tens if not hundreds of games to finally be out of smurf queue and play against people on their skill level. As this was obviously not fun for either the returning players or the plethora of next Fakers in smurf queue Riot decided to just remove the system making smurfs appear in regular ranked matches again. See here or here for further discussion.

  • Failing to release the new VGU: As League of Legends is quite old now a lot of the older heroes are not capable of keeping up with the power creep of the latest releases making them obsolete and quite frankly incredibly unfun. Riot combats this by updating older heroes to new standards either via a visual or a gameplay update; sometimes even combining both of them for a visual and gameplay update. As a token of goodwill Riot offered players the choice of which hero gets this desired upgrade and the community voted for Skarner who is as one-dimensional as Salvador sperging out about the Ukranian-Russia war. I think he won the poll about a year ago but nothing has been done and the community is quite sceptical about Riot failing to deliver yet again here

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/107jo6b/so_has_any_work_for_the_skarner_vgu_been_done/j3mpw1t/

From the sound of it they still haven't decided what visual design road to take him in, which sounds really odd at this point.

But we don't know when this was recorded so maybe something changed since then?

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/107jo6b/so_has_any_work_for_the_skarner_vgu_been_done/j3n02wb/

I legit think they didn't expect him to win so they didn't even have any plans made.

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/107jo6b/so_has_any_work_for_the_skarner_vgu_been_done/j3mtj6d/

Honestly I feel like they have no idea how to tackle him which iirc that’s why they didn’t rework him before either

This article talks about an update for this long-awaited VGU that's planned for Skarner but it's still mind-boggling how Riot is simply incapable of doing this in an acceptable time frame.

The update didn’t ruin ARAMS, you just forgot what the gamemode is all about. [600 comments]

The current state of ARAM balance is an absolute mess. [680 comments]

ARAM Champion specific buffs are borderline insane [600 comments]

ARAM is dead to me [1500 comments]

The game most just feels so awful now. The aram balance adjustments feel awful and the new tower falling/death times feel terrible as well. One of my favorite champions, ashe, is forced to not go adc, while Leblanc gets broken modifiers because iron players suck at her. No aram adjustment should go past 5% in my opinion. Yes some champs will be better than others but at least I don't have to scroll down a list every pre game to see what champs are currently neutered. I can't believe we didn't get nexus blitz so they could further ruin this abomination of a game mode. Goodbye aram I'd rather play weakside top lane then waste another minute wallowing in the filth that is ARAM.

ARAM seems less "for fun" with the recent changes [800 comments]


The failure of the 2023 cinematic

The absolute bomb Riot dropped was the travesty of the newly released cinematic. Despite releasing a couple of hours prior to this post it has already gathered more dislikes and negative comments than all other cinematics combined:

On Youtube:

  • Alexcx: the cinematic perfectly depicts the state of game: uneventful and below expectations [+15100]

  • Maple: I can't help but to feel sad about this, honestly. Cinematics were the only thing that NEVER disappointed from riot, yet here we are... [+2000]

  • Tren Status: After the 2022 cinematic, I can't even begin to explain how DISAPPOINTING this year's is [+6500]

On Twitter: (a lot of people working in the league bubble are disappointed)

https://x.com/LeagueOfLegends/status/1612736707220369408

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1086230/brink_of_infinity_has_52k_dislikes_at_52_mins/

Fantasticaly underwhelming. I hope this is the biggest dissapointment I'm gona suffer this year.

I admit, after last year "The Call" my expectations were high as heck but witnessing this shit that was goo in 2012 at best probably summs up the issues the game faces and probably make community realises why the voices calling the game "maintenance mode" are louder than ever.

Pre season was already dissapointing enough with core gameplay issues around itemisation is still unfixed ever since new system from S11.

Feels like everything I/WE loved about this game slowly getting tossed aside by every year. :(

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1086230/brink_of_infinity_has_52k_dislikes_at_52_mins/j3qctb7/

It has 8.1k dislikes and 2022 cinematic with 143 million views has 8.3k lmao. Took 1 hour to get the same amount of dislikes.

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1086230/brink_of_infinity_has_52k_dislikes_at_52_mins/j3qexi1/

If this is the future of cinematics for league, I just hope they stop doing them at all. This was so cheap and disappointing wtf. Dislikes are deserved imo.

It's so bad I'm confused - it quite literally looks like a Riot cinematic from 10 years ago, complete with the odd plasticky graphics, and focus on the Summoners/Summoner's Rift instead of the actual world of Runeterra

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/10866a8/lets_discuss_the_cinematic/

My personal opinion? Worst cinematic ever. 0 Lore progression, 0 Hype. I don’t know what they thought creating this. After the call, this is probably the painful awakening. It feels like Platin Peter‘s motivational speech to his duo mate, that they will win dia promos this time.

Why did they pick a gay black singer to design a skin for a gay black character in a season in which they're trying to promote inclusion?


Summary and further discussion

Go to the League subreddit and I bet you that at least 75% of all posts are complaining about something. It's also honestly fascinating how some posts on this subreddit with millions of subscribers are on the frontpage with less than 100 upmarseys. Some further threads that complain about the state of the game:

Where has Riot's passion for League gone?

'Events' nowadays are just an excuse to get players to buy an event pass. We're lucky if we get a visual novel with it.

Riot's skin philosophy seems to have shifted to "quantity over quality". This is apparent when looking at the Zenith Games skins, Battle Boss Bel'Veth, and skin lines that champions have been forced into like SG and SB.

Champion teasers are something we have to ask for nowadays. I guess Riot doesn't really care about hyping up players for champion releases anymore. But why would they if everything gets leaked anyway nowadays, right?

This year's season start cinematic was terrible. No champions, no nothing, just a render of Summoner's Rift.

Is this the same company that released K/DA, the Annie: Origins cinematic and TFT as passion projects? The same company that made event gamemodes like Odyssey: Extraction and PROJECT: Hunters?

The same company that decided to focus on champion reworks for like a year because they realized that a lot of champions are outdated? Now 'midscope updates' are the new hot thing.

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1086hu0/where_has_riots_passion_for_league_gone/j3qewrl/

Valo, MMO , project L.. Riot has new favourite child/children.

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1086hu0/where_has_riots_passion_for_league_gone/j3qfdme/

This is called corporate complacency and is a well known cycle in every industry. It's an issue fundamentally of profit-focused business management culture prioritizing revenue milking over the fundamentals of their original success and consumer unwillingness to punish this behavior.

I nominate the Pokemon company and game freak if you want to see the worst example. 100 man team for game dev reusing assets and can't make a triple a game on a modern console, massive profits. By comparison a game like Warframe has 500 employees.

Do we have to be scared? Are they reducing the budget of League so much?

Ahri took 300 years and she looks identical

Skarner is still in the early CONCEPT stage

Champions are getting post-poned left and right

No new events announced for 2023

Valorant getting better cinematics for a SKIN BUNDLE

Wild Rift getting so many exclusive (and high quality) skins

THAT SORRY EXCUSE FOR A "CINEMATIC" FOR SEASON 2023

What is happening to League? Are they reducing the budget of the game so much? Are we going towards some kind of maintenance mode or something?

I know it seems soon to cry wolf, but all these things together made me really worried for the future of League.

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1086en6/do_we_have_to_be_scared_are_they_reducing_the/j3qhjj3/

As a former Heroes of the Storm player, I must say that this feels very familiar.

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1086en6/do_we_have_to_be_scared_are_they_reducing_the/j3qg53i/

League is the older sibling and the parents dont care about them anymore. All the younger children is getting the attention now.

That's how life often works. Times change.

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1086en6/do_we_have_to_be_scared_are_they_reducing_the/j3qkkn3/

League is basically running in a skeleton crew compared to 2015-2017.

I mean I remember the gangplank event. the OG Oddysey event and a bunch of stuff like that. the mass reworks that even if annoying af made the game fresh.

anyone who says otherwise its just willfully ignoring facts.

we have gotten the same content the last 2-3 years that we woulve previously gotten in 1 season.

Idk how most ppl don't realize this. We been running on fumes for a while now. I feel like anybody with a shread of wanting to do something diffrent went to TFT.

[..]

All of their best people are on other games. Valorant, TFT, and Runeterra are all fantastic. I'm sure they've got all of their resources pointed at the MMO, too. I guess they figure that League can take care of itself while they flesh out their portfolio.

https://old.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1086en6/do_we_have_to_be_scared_are_they_reducing_the/j3qe1ii/

My guess: Most of LoL Devs moved to the MMO. LoL now only exists to fund the MMO so there will be huge budget cuts while trying to make as much money as possible (thats why there are 2 season resets now, they want us to play nothing but LoL and buy lots of skins).


Personal opinion

'No king rules forever and the times they are a-changin' said the preacher. It's all vanity in the end, isn't that right?

Also please try to NOT make fun of me for writing all of this I'm sensible o-okay :soycry:

Jump in the discussion.

No email address required.

TF1 was very obscure and largely dead when TF2 was released. TF2 was more like a new release in terms of its playerbase. There also weren't widely played online games back then like there are now. When TF2 was released there was really just CounterStrike, DotA (in Warcraft 3 at that time), and Halo. CounterStrike would be a better comparison because of CounterStrike: Source, which split players between the original CS and CS:S because CS:S had an updated engine but terrible mechanics (the hitboxes were a constant complaint IIRC). CounterStrike: Global Offensive fixed this though since it had better mechanics like fixed hitboxes but updated graphics. Apparently there are still differences between CS:GO and CS 1.6 (the original CS) but I'm not a CS nerd so I couldn't care less.

There's 3 kinds of servers:

  1. Furry/heavy erp server: everyone is a degenerate 40yo moid who likes to have s*x with other 40yo moids pretending to be lizard girls in fursuits. If you want to play normal you will be banned cause you got in the way of someone trying to have s*x. Admins are super harsh on newbies. Everyone is mean to newbies. Exclusive furry servers always have libertarian/zoophilia or worse.

  2. Heavy roleplay server. These servers have a lot of rules and people who are uptight about the rules. If you want to play normal you will get banned for breaking a gazillion ruled. Mods are uptight and really mean to you if you don't know the 1000 rules by heart.

  3. Be nice to each other MRP. Just like HRP, except rules are kinda vague. Mods are lifeless neurodivergents who's only purpose in life is to enforce pesky rules over the few people they have power over. If you want to play normal, you will get banned because you pissed of some neighbor who is buddy buddy with a mod, or actual mod. Closely resemble the Stanford prison experiment.

  4. Casual chill lrp server. Nah jk; 5pop or dead.

Jump in the discussion.

No email address required.

Nice blind view of things, however, in reality

60% furry/erp server: "super harsh on newbies" just translates into "super nice to anyone who thinks textfricking for 6 hours is r-slurred". they'll do anything to protect the fee fees of their deviantart OC players/staff, even to the detriment of "quality" :marseysick: textfrickers who are literate and don't want genuine r-slurs around to ruin their textfricking :marseypuke:

alternately there's citadel which was just run by complete spergs who hated both actual players and textfrickers and drove both out so the server's dead, best possible scenario.

25% russian servers, which can fall into the other groups. I play tarkov, so I don't need to join these, I get that experience already.

5% "classic" good servers. this used to be near 80% but le epic furries have arrived because fricking youtubers ruined the game unironically

5% non-ss13 servers that just leech off the hub because le epic same codebase even though the game is completely different there

5% "HRP" servers which are just the furry servers but even more cute twinkry

the days of good ss13 are long dead.
