      thats what happens when a company doesnt see its players as walking wallets... Riot is very generous with skins, I have close to 800-1000$ worth of skins but have never spent money on league, and so the saying goes; Generousity bigets generosity. Players just want to give Riot money and TBH they kinda deserve it. Even I do its just I was unlucky enough to be born in a third world country xD

      @PepperoniRonin. Год назад +149

      TBH LoL legendary skins are the only skins in any game I think are worth their cost. Riot basically remakes every aspect of the champion except how their abilities function. Yes this includes lore as well.... Legendary skins (and a lot of skin lines in general) have their own well written lore separate from the canon league universe. Compare this to Overwatch's model swap only legendary skins which cost around the same amount of money xD

    As someone who's never played League, can someone explain what the issue is? From the outside, it does seem weird that they'd give some characters skins, but not others and that this would go on for years. So strange to think that there's a commercial demand for a fairly easy to provide product and the company just leaves the money on the table.

    • @bearjingle5316
      @bearjingle5316 Год назад +1

      They do somewhere between 5-12 skins every two weeks and they've been doing it for years. I assume trying to improve workflow would be difficult and its already at a blazing pace. As for why some champs get skins and some don't its simply because some champs skins sell better, would you make a skin that would only pull in maybe 10k in revenue just to appease a few fans or would you put out Ezreals 19th skin for a guarantee of 100k. The skins team carry riots income and intentionally making a much smaller profit every few weeks just to make fans happy isn't viable.

      Players want legendary skins because they're high quality at a low price.
      Because skins are available in tiers, Riot prefers spending less effort, and demanding more money.
      Unnamed Tier:
      Recolor, ranging from paintbucket tool to new vfx.
      These give the most money to Riot when bought, as they are low effort money printers.
      Deluxe,
      Altered Model
      These are low effort, and usually the new assets clash heavily with the remaining unaltered assets.
      Standard,
      Altered (or new) Model,
      new Texture and Recall animation.
      Second best value.
      "Epic",
      New model, texture, recall animation, and VFX
      Often not very different from Standard, but costs 38% more.
      Legendary:
      New Model, Texture, Animations, VFX, SFX, and voice over.
      Less than $20, best value!
      Legendary+
      Pay more money for a legendary skin! (leaked).
      Ultimate:
      High price, funds RnD, usually comes with new UI.
      Prestige:
      Modern Fashion, and Bling,
      High Effort New Texture!
      Technically a Recolor:
      $200
      Myrhic
      Buy more lootboxes!

      @qai3962 Год назад +5

      it’s not “fairly easy” as you might think, legendaries and skins above this tier takes them longer to develop because most of them are basically made from the ground up. They have actual different models not just a skin and some vfx put on top of the original, their animations are different for every skill and interactions, new voice lines that are congruent to the skin’s universe lore, some have gimicks that are basically minigames inside the base game like elementalist lux who can basically change models midgame by mixing elements.

    I played league for ten years, eventually the battlepass fomo shit burned me out (I have hdad with a dash of autism for fun) because even tho (as i found out through an site that sums your total) i spent an embarrassing amount of money on it while i was simply enjoying the game, their constant "player retention" efforts and making me feel like i have to log in ever day, quickly killed it for me, i will do something of my own accord for 10 years, but the moment you you make me feel i have to, it won't last a week.
    But what i actually wanted to address was "losing in league means you have to sit there losing for 20 minutes", in the over 5k games i played (I was depressed for a few years and it was literally all i did) i never once surrendered, eventually i landed on not being an asshole about it if the other four people clicked yes, but i never once got myself to do it.
    Because, surrendering robs you of so many things:
    - Are you frustrated with how the game is going ?, is it getting you mad that things are not going your way ? .... good, sit with it, feel it, and learn how to deal with it, yes the game offers an easy out, but life won't, teach yourself to deal with your emotions instead of opting out.
    - If you're only willing to play the game when you're ahead, then that is also the only condition you will ever be able to play under, you can't turn the ship around if all you've ever allowed yourself to prioritize is smooth sailing, look for strategies, experiment, see what works, learn to adapt to being on the back foot.
    - And even if defeat is all but a certainty, go wild, try that crazy play, experiment with the mechanics of your champion, play like you've got nothing to lose.
    Or click yes to surrender and flip a coin if you're going to hate the next match or not.

    In league some champions only get a skin every few years so if they give your champion one thst sucks it will be years before you see another. There are 160 champions in the game but most people only actually play a few of them and some only play 1.

It's absolute S-tier trashtalking over a few hundred players. There is absolutely no way to have such a discussion because the two champions are as different as night and day. The two champs aren't even the most popular. Syndra is also a fairly meta-dependent champ, so as not to have to have the discussion about her strength and popularity. It's completely nonsense.

    MOBA's tend to be quite emotionally intense and frustrating, combined with annonymity and distance from behind the screen it is a very good soil for aggression. Most players are egoistically obssessed about KDA, damage dealt or MMR and winning rather than trying to have a good game. Maybe every single player thinks their MMR should be higher than it is, because they are focusing more on others mistakes instead of their own. Few people realize that every change with every patch is like unlearning you the game.

This is off the charts cool with the visual and particle effects, as well as fundamental changes to the core model. Will I waste my time arguing with Syndra mains over this? No. If a Syndra main brings it up, I'll just do a little murmaider on them in-game. Also, SKT Nami has the coolest recall animation in the game. Change my mind.

I think many people who want more skins are hoping to pull them rather than spend money on them but I could be wrong.
