[2022] Why TFT isn't a separate game with its own client like LoR and VALORANT?


Original Post — Direct link

Can someone explain to me?

I don't understand, TFT has his own gamestyle, his own meta, his own season that is different from LoL, his own pass, his own game modes, his own cosmetics, his own balance and development team, his own champions (Silco) and in the future nothing prevents a TFT season with VALORANT agents...

It's literally another game, so why is it treated as a game mode rather than a game in its own right which is what it really is?

They speedran the development. They did it in something like 6 months as I recall. They were only able to do that by reusing league assets.

The reason for the speedrun was people were unsure about the longevity of the genre. They wanted to get in on the hype before it died down, and they didn't want to dump resources into a game they weren't sure was going to last long.

It took 18 weeks.

The problem is not balance changes and new things Riot trying to do, what actually frustrating is Riot not learning from the past and try to do exact things again while expecting to be different this time for some reason
