    I just love how invested Asmon got listening to Necrit explaining the lore. Like most people who play League, they play it to become better and climb the ranks and only the minority really cares about the lore of the game. But since this is an MMO, lore is gonna be important. And seeing Asmon who knows nothing about the game, not only just being intrigued by the lore but also imagining the countless possibilities of it being fully realized and playable and being able to play the game in the future. I think this is what I appreciate more about his reaction than just like some random dudes on the internet who reacts to League cinematics or whatever.

    Something people are not mentioning often enough: Riot is also constantly evolving their lore through their other games. New league characters might come from a previously unknown region or traveled somewhere and gained their powers there. Looking for a new event? Let's write in a war between two nations and have players pick sides. Even skins can bring in some new piece of lore. It's a massive advantage having these things interconnected.

Lets be real. They will copy WoW format but do it better because its 20 years later but thats relative when its 20 years later and your a billion dollar bussiness. Itll be great for a few years then they wiill give in and turn to making money over quality and we will all be on to the next thing rinse dopamine receptors and wallets and repeat

    It would be interesting if they released each zone following a story, but not all at once. Make it extremely detailed zones/quests and bring the story to a certain point. After that, a major event that present the new area after it's completed with quality quests/storytelling and detailed zones. They have a good product in their hand....it just that companies usually bite more than they can chew....focus on a smaller map but with quality, then after that is done, release the new area.

    Riot's been building League lore for a loong time now. League has been out for 13 years now and while the lore started really simple they've been working at it for a long time now building and expanding the world. They've written many stories, they've been killing it with the cinematics and in November last year we finally got an actual series where they showed a wider audience what their team is capable of. Riot's got some really talented writers, the world is already incredibly interesting and it seems like with this MMO they're going to push it even further.

Which also makes sense since back then Riot was focused on building a good game and a successful E-Sports scene, when they cemented themselves as the giants they are they were able to focus more on this aspects that dont directly impact the game or the esports scene. What i have to commend Riot for is that they have expanded the lore of those old champions (or at least most of them), which many devs would probably ignore and just do expanded lore for newly released characters.

It's the same problem that prevents them from properly developing lore storylines. Champions are built around a particular status quo and changing it in any significant amount will also require changes in LoL. Killing one is outright impossible. For now at least.

Sadly, while I enjoy the lore of league a lot, if ten cent is involved in the decision making for riot's mmo I think "gameplay is king" will boil down to anything that keeps the player grinding away while selling overpriced skins or accessories. At least in terms of league of legends they stopped innovating years ago and are just riding the cash cow. I'd be very surprised to see them attempt true originality in the MMO, especially given how established the genre is. The only hope I have is that they ironically make a monthly-sub based game like WoW and actually focus on gameplay development and PvP events that will engage people to form good communities, but again there's no guarantee they would allocate revenue to their development teams to push risky and original ideas, and in terms of community league is extremely toxic and I have no faith that won't bleed over into the MMO and make large-scale events miserable.

    Being deep into the lore of League since long now, when I watched Necrit's video I thought it was well made and that he brought good points, but watching you react to it makes me realize how well put together his video is, and it really highlights how developed the lore of League is. As the years goes by I love it's lore more and more over the actual gameplay. The thing I think Riot's writers do best is morally grey zones. There is A LOT of characters that look good or evil at first glance, but when you dig into their lore you realize that it's way more complex than that (Morgana vs Kayle for example, Viktor (the canon one) too).

    no one knows how deep the Runeterra lore is because the games themselves (except for The Ruined King game) do not explain the lore at any point, Riot didn't start as an RPG Devteam, so those who know the Lore from playing League, know it because they went and read it on their own, but as someone that has played League since 2014, i can tell you, the Lore has no impact in LoL, or Legends of Runeterra, or TFT, or Valorant. Given that MMORPGs take 6+ years to develop, Riot probably knew they wanted to make an MMORPG before they were even close to starting the development of the MMO, which is why they did make the effort of creating an interesting world and put so much effort in the worldbuilding aspects of Runeterra.

    The lore Riot has created is very intriguing, but so far it's largely been a bunch of storylines that are cool ideas more than anything else. They can tell individual stories with it, but what I'm really interested in seeing is if they can take their eclectic lore and bring it all together in an MMO. They definitely have a leg up with so many people who already have some knowledge of it and are anxious to explore the world further, so hopefully they can pull it off, but I think too many people are assuming that their starting point is simply going to work because it sounds interesting. Even if they don't do it well it may work for some time, but if it's not cohesive then it will start to show cracks over time. But above all else, the fact that LoL has forced them to create such a diversity of storylines could be a great strength for them. They're basically obligated to take the risks to create a very unique world rather than trying to find ways for it to conform into something simpler.

    For story telling, Riot will have an easier time with characters than WoW. Warcraft only had a handful of characters people really knew and cared about. League has hundreds. And as League is constantly shitting out new champions, there will be room for their MMO to occasionally kill off a few for story. I think Arcane really showed us that Riot can truly visualize the world building of League. It also showed us they can write a fucking story. And cutscenes will be fire in the MMO, as their in-house animators made Arcane.

The thousands of ingame Champion interactions and voicelines that give more details about relationships and history. About 15 distinct regions/nations all with very complex and diverse cultures, historys, visual styles and inhabitants and also a long and interesting storyline in concurrent canon. Fucking ARCANE! An entire Soundtrack of something like 200 ambient tracks that have accumulated over the years and exist for no other reason as to give vibes to the regions or some more to some characters. Hundreds of beautifull pictures and pieces of Artwork depicting the landscapes, creatures, peoples and history of the world ranging from concept art to full renderings. The list goes on and on.

    Everything sounds amazing, and yeah, very much like WoW, with the years and years of lore-building through previous games and such. But, I disagree with the idea that the mountain description, where it was simply stated he thinks it will be a great place to get armor. The description of that place, and the lore behind it, remind me tremendously of Everquest, with the Planes of Power. I think that after some expansions, and players ascending through levels and abilities, it would naturally progress to a point where the characters would want to 'Ascend'. So, perhaps an expansion that acts as kind of a trial, where the players would have to journey and fight through different challenges, to reach the peak, and be awarded more deific-level power, and obtain a choice of aspects. Maybe these aspects could be tied to the choice of challenges? And, the character would have those aspects as options to swap around when needed, but would have to complete the trials. One might be tied to a solo challenge, another to a group, one for raid level, perhaps one for a trial of traps and environmental stuff, etc etc. Different paths to tread to arrive at the peak, so different Aspects to be claimed.

    There should be class advancement into Aspects. They should make Targon Mountai expasion later on and use it as a massive upgrade for characters. A huge grind while going up the mountain and a bunch of gear, buffs and a class advancement in the top.

Torturirous demons, family killing kids, child labor, a distructibe mummy child that only want a friend. Some of the stories make you not know what is the right in that situation and think some unreasonable things might be acceptable.

Have us travel to Noxus to buy certain metals to forge with the wood from Demacia to make a weapon. Some people might find it tedious but Riot's big advantage is how fleshed out their world is and the atmosphere it provides. If they make keeping it their top priority the game will do great

    For sometime Riot has essentially been Blizzard's child, coming out of WC3 DotA with LoL and keeping the similar style of art and games throughout, then going further. They show that passion that Blizzard lost, making groundbreaking amazing cinematics, world building and even developing other games which are highly successful. They're kinda going the same route but a different one like Blizzard, and so far they've innovated game genres that exist just as Blizzard did as well, only that I feel I'm quite confident they have what it takes to really create something new and great that the players want, or have the same vision, rather than Blizzard that seems to lost their touch.

They managed to make everyone with passion leave. Nowadays there are at most 5 people of original Blizzard left in the whole company. I have seen a Video about that. Let's hope that Riot's superbrain will keep leading the Company for a long time to come. It might only need for one right person to fall out for it all to crumble.

Asmon knows what's up - studio with a big rep, great lore, beautiful and very distinct stylised art, an already enormous fanbase. This is the WoW killer of infamy.

    one small reason why MMO takes 6+ years to make is that there are no good MMO engine out on the market and the few that exist (blizzards wow engine) is locked for anyone but blizzard themself. If I wanted to make a FPS game (anything from a COD/Battlefield clone in the same scale) to a 32vs32 Multiplayer FPS game I got hundreds of engine to choice from (unity, unreal 3, 4 and now 5) far cry engine (was a pain to get thought), Source 1 and Source 2. same whit RTS game there is a good chunk of options and I could just make it the netcode for a 32vs32 game is there already in the box just need content and all that. if I wanted to make a MMO I needed to first get a engine then get the network for that kind of scale a MMO needs I need to make that as for a long time there was littarly nothing on the market. and Unreal 3 and 4 is starting to collapse under the age of the engine limitation. there was a dedicated MMO engine out there for a time (hero engine sadly only SWTOR used it and 1 other game used it... elder scrools used it for a short time but stoped). so a lot of that time is just spending getting a basic engine to work for the task. you know that basic 1 week unity tutorial videos you seen that ends whit a game demo that's is a 1 vs 1 FPS game on a super basic N64 level style grey arena whit basic weapons maybe power upp movements and a jump function. that is what most MMO looks like after several years of hard work. becaues they needed to make everything more or less from scratch. meanwhile if I wanted to make a Battlefield clone that would be 1-2 weeks at most in unity, unreal or source, amusing the person can code at any level.
