I'm glad to hear that. I tried to explain that to a Hardcore wow player, and he was adamant you could never enjoy a competitor's game... He also was sure Riot and Blizzard had really bad blood.

For me overwatch got boring in a way league never has. I still play with friends, but 60% of my time is in League, 20% in titanfall 2, 15% Elder scrolls online, and the last 5% between overwatch and halo 5. They are all great games. League is just the one that calls me back the most.... For the past 6...7? Years....

I could understand why someone would think that, but yeah -- walk around the office here and you'll see people playing all kinds of stuff. The computers in the PC Bang have Battle.net and Steam pre-installed alongside League.

I have a TV over by where I sit and it's always on Twitch streaming one thing or another. A lot of the time it's League, but a lot of the time it's a new game (FFXV right now, for example), or a tournament (like The International), or just a rando stream (I like to scroll to the bottom and turn on some obscure thing with one viewer, like a dude playing Metroid II).

Riot's not unique -- most people who work in games work there because they love games. I don't think anyone would accept a job where enjoying other games was disallowed.
