unlabelledView post →Riot Games is accused of actively suppressing any negative comments related to Mastercard or otherwise mentioning the anti-game/NSFW censorship movement on its esports broadcasts. The decision to do so was reportedly made internally, according to an obtained statement. www.si.com/esports/news...
unlabelledView post →I don't recall French Bread ever needing to fire their entire dev team after launching a game but I guess you can make fun of them, Riot.
unlabelledView post →Not shocked. Not speaking to the quality of the game, but rather the prolonged dev time, slow/bizarre rollout, and weird marketing decisions. Also, saying earlier this year, "we fired all the core staff" doesn't exactly inspire players to pick up your game, does it? A failure of Riot management.
unlabelledView post →Ten years in development, canceled after nine months. I feel so bad for all the people who put their time and energy and love into this game only for it to get shut down because Riot thought "Yeah we figured out the formula for a successful fighting game, we're about to be the biggest game ever"
unlabelledView post →The same delusion that made Riot execs think they could just drop a fighting game whenever they want and the FGC would be so grateful to them for doing so that it would be the biggest game in the scene is now making them believe their MMO will take on WoW and FFXIV instead of imploding on impact.

unlabelledView post →Y'know, Riot should start a project to work with outside game studios to publish games in a variety of genres, to let fans engage with the universe outside of the MOBA. I think that would be a great idea.
unlabelledView post →Kinda rubs me the wrong way seeing Riot dump insane amounts of money into 2XKO marketing when they just laid off like half the staff of that game suddenly just this year.
unlabelledView post →It is wild that over the past decade we had Riot and top FGC personalities gassing up 2XKO like never before. Fighting game pros were actually saying with their whole chest "This will change Fighting games forever" 2XKO shows up, nine months later "Damn, making a successful fighting game got hands"
unlabelledView post →Every time someone in a game of League asks me what I do at Riot
unlabelledView post →To be genuinely fair, I actually think that if someone at Riot had an ounce of foresight they would have never greenlit the game at all, or cancelled it once they wanted to rework it into a tag fighter.
unlabelledView post →All I’m saying if RIOT wanted me to actually pay attention to my laning phase they shouldn’t have added these 3 to the game
unlabelledView post →I am a simple girl. I just want universal healthcare, universal basic income, free and easy access to HRT for all, and the funding to make MAGICA RIOT: THE ANIMATION and MAGICA RIOT: THE GAME
unlabelledView post →Riot got the exact fighting game they asked for with the exact business model they demanded and then act shocked and fire their most loyal, longtime employees with almost zero notice because the game didn't immediately make 300 gorillion dollars.
unlabelledView post →As an aside, multiple game publishers operating titles in the region were impacted by this. Riot Games, for example, has now switched to servers in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia) and Mumbai (India) due to the below.

unlabelledView post →condolences to the 2xko team 😔 Layoffs immediately post-launch are not what you ever want to see. www.gamedeveloper.com/business/rio... I will say, props to Riot for doing 6 months' severance. That's decent of them.
unlabelledView post →Yeah, that’s gonna do it. Fuck Riot and 2XKO. Hope that game fucking fails
unlabelledView post →That is absolutely not true. The issue was how they handled everything, from the overly long development time to how they monetized the game. It's a Riot issue, not a game issue.
unlabelledView post →Gonna make a Magica Riot game because it is scientifically designed to piss off chuds and appeal to cool people

unlabelledView post →not to be a tease but the N64 fan game is not the only Magica Riot game in development 🤔👀
unlabelledView post →I want to clarify something here in that when I say it “feels like a Magica Riot game” I don’t mean the characters/story/etc I’m talking design and structure. This interactive narrative segments combined with rhythm game rock music combat against enemies design could make a fun Magica Riot game.

unlabelledView post →A year ago today, early access for 2XKO originally began as a PC exclusive, functioning as the 1st full-feature release of the game. It was developed and published by Riot Games. 2xko.riotgames.com/en-us/news/a...
unlabelledView post →2XKO is a bummer because on one hand, it's good that a bunch of crass FGC people fleeced a company like Riot for millions over the course of a decade. But on the other hand, they used all that time and money to make a game as pedestrian as 2XKO
unlabelledView post →Saw an interview where a Riot exec straight up said the expectations were in the hundreds of thousands. For a fighting game. These people have their heads in the fucking clouds. Blowing a decade of labor and economic activity while holding that over it? no wonder the people making it fucked around
unlabelledView post →The only reason 2XKO even got made was they bought Radiant to make it and couldnt get out of it, i always assumed. Like they honestly had no desire to make a fighting game at Riot but just kind of said 'WELL IF ITS THE MOST POPULAR FIGHTING GAME *EVER MADE* WE WONT CAN IT'

unlabelledView post →For reference (and this doesn't include console players, which are generally pretty significant for fighting games, too), Street Fighter 6 is considered a "critical success." You wanna know what a good player count is, on a given day, on Steam for that game? Twenty. THOUSAND. Fuck Riot for this...
unlabelledView post →So Marc Merrill of Riot recently stated that, for the 2v2 tag fighter game 2XKO to be considered a success, sustained player count needed to be hundreds of thousands, if not millions... ........MY GUY, ARE YOU UNAWARE THAT FIGHTING GAMES GENERALLY HAVE SMALLER, DEDICATED PLAYER BASES?!
unlabelledView post →The most surprising part of a Riot exec saying in public that 2XKO would've needed hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of monthly (paying) players to make money is that they actually let this game ship at all

unlabelledView post →I've always said Riot make better story tellers then game devs
unlabelledView post →It’s amazing to me how some people will see Riot Games’s wildly unrealistic expectations for 2XKO, and their conclusion will be to blame the developers for not making a lowest-common-denominator fighting game.
unlabelledView post →you work at Riot Games and see your co-founder go on /checks notes/ Lemonade Stand and say one of the dumbest things a person has ever uttered. a thing that would get you laughed out of literally any room that has fighting game experts in it. unbelievable stuff.
unlabelledView post →Seeing the Lemonade Stand interview on everything that is happening rn is deeply sadden and upsetting to my core Like... Welp, there goes MMO. A minute in and not a single million hit, BAM! A long paragraph letter to send off whatever next Riot newer game I'm so tired
