Used to play an online game for years until they made it easier for the newbies and a big player-boom happened. Which was good on one hand, more players, but on the other hand veteran players were left out and things they achieved over years took newer players only days. That fact alone wasn't the toxic aspect of it though, I(and everyone else too) loved having new competition but the new players all brought bad attitudes with them with no respect duo to the easiness of things that they didn't know any other way and basically destroyed the community from inwards out.

So many recent games got hyped and failed(GW2, D3, SC2).
Im coming from the RTS scene, played red alert 2+yuris revenge. Even tho the balance wasnt that great(in the addon) it was so much fun. But from there its just went downside..
(Hoping for generals 2)

Im really glad about league, with such a simple design. Keep up the good work!


i would like to hear your opinion about Guild Wars 2. I was really excited about that game, but it just turned out to be flop(atleast in my opinion).

For me as a player. The most attractive thing of games is, if you can play it with friends. And for me Guild Wars 2 failed at that pretty hard..
Also i dont like the new weapon+skill system. It kinda takes the away the choices you could do as a player.


What's youre opinion as a developer on those games?

Guild wars 2, i loved the first game rly did. Making builds on all proffs and trying them out in the arena. That freedom is gone trying to combo your build to make something awesome. The game is good tho but its not what i expected. And the mesmer my favo proff in GW, is nothing like it in GW2.

When it comes down to it, games that are out for more than a few years NEED to change, and do things that are probably going to be unpopular with the "old" crowd, to keep up with the trends.

WoW used to be a gruelling and challenging game that took months on end to get to grips with, and much more time after that to master, but in the era of "easy" and "social" gaming, people are more entitled, want more for less, and (to stay profitable and popular) the product (ie, WoW or LoL) has to change to reflect that.

Sure, it sucks if you're an "original" player, but you hav to see beyond what you think is what's best and see what is best for the game and the game company overall.

Hey Morello!

Since you are talking about champions, design, strengths etc etc... Could you tell me what is your opinion on Zyra currently? Ever since the last nerf on her plants being prioritized by turrets, she hasn't been up to par with most of the AP mids. So as I understand by buffing her as a MID champion she will unavoidably be too dtrong of a support, could you give a small buff to her ratios/ main damage to that she can be more rewarding? For example revert her ulti back to it's original damage 200/300/400 or make it's ratio from 0.7 to 0.8. Same for her Q, since it is her main damaging ability, a slight buff to it's ratio would make it more rewarding. I suggested the ratio buffs so that support Zyra will not be affected since she has to build other kinds of items. But AP Zyra would benefit from it, without her becoming too strong again . One of the main reasons I insist on this is because now that most of the champions stack health, she is just not dealing enough damage to stand against her opponents.

And of course same thing for Nami (just a suggestion here though) a buff to her ratios will make her role in the mid lane more consistent, rewarding without making her too strong as a support.

I really hope you answer to this post and share your opinion.
Thank you for your time .
