It's Arcane Show BTW based on LoL
Very fitting meme if you remember the harrasement scandal at riot a few years back.

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).
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:
-
the attrition of the early grind is the easiest to monetyze
-
the need for new players to keep the game alive
-
the miracolous success of the game making no changes better than changing something and finding out you inadvertedly sapped the magic out of it.
Since most people haven't played DOTA 2, I'm here to inform you you have access to all the heroes from the get go
(It also has tutorial better by two orders of magnitude)
How can the game be so bad yet the things surrounding it so good?
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.
Yeah playing with organized teams is so much better than soloQ. The entire game revolves around teamwork but then they throw 5 randos together with no voice chat and it's just an incubator for frustration.
Flaming is probably less now because the game is getting kinda old and people don't take it as seriously anymore. I haven't played in several years so idk.
Riot works on their game
Then they throw money at other - actually competent - studios to work on side content

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