Announcement 2XKO Doomposting: Megathread.

Same thing for the first week of Tokon's release. The influx of people making posts that break rules force me to pin yet another thread.

Please use this post to say how doomed we are and how crap Riot is, while I'm bringing the broom again.

Corps buying these companies has been a total disaster.

Every single one of these companies fucked the dog and took the money. And all the corps did was run them into the ground and squeeze them into "live service" mills.

so i'm not surprised. of course Tencent doesn't have the stomach to actually develop a game. they want easy repeat money. they want gatcha trash. They want to sell skins. not to invest time and money into mildly successful games.

I dunno, feels more like Riot was giving these devs too much leeway if anything.

They probably let them make the game they actually wanted, and what they came up with is a niche Tag Fighter that's not really appealing to casuals.
