If all measures were hit, except for the engagement being sustainable, what do you think the problem was?

I wasn't on that product so I can't really say :/

I think this is a super important and often overlooked thing. Things like NB can be objectively good, well designed, and serve their target audience, yet still not be sustainable

Have a safe trip home

Hanging out with Thugg and Blaustoise at the same time is an experience I wouldn't wish on anyone. You're a brave man - I'm only traveling with them cause I'm a masochist.

That being said, you can at least get some enjoyment by flexing your rank on us, considering we're all Plat these days :^ )

It's almost like they represent a huge percentage of the player base.

i guess you guys will have to think twice when adding more child champions to the game then, everyone saw the kind of crowd Zoe panders to from a mile away, you guys even went with "2000 year-old loli" meme ffs, dont play dumb.

We should absolutely be able to add a diverse selection of characters to our game without thinking about whether they'd appeal to players sexually, especially child like champions.

Are you suggesting we have a meeting where we discuss halting a champ design because some players may find this character sexually appealing in a way that is legally unacceptable?

Can you see how crazy that is?

Hire me Riot.

arraysstartat1

You're also only printing out "Helloworl". Need a "<=" if you start at 1 and end at array.length ;)

Edit: I'm wrong, fire me :(

Imagine it like cooking at home vs takeout.

Engine-light is like cooking at home, the engine (restaurant/market) does as little as possible. For the most part you have to do everything yourself to create a meal (the game).
All the sauces need to be created from basic little ingredients, meal has to be properly cooked and spiced.

Engine-heavy is takeout. You just choose which food you want. That is great if they have exactly what you want, otherwise there are problems.

At the time this was getting decided, they were in the middle. To continue the analogy: They ordered burger patty, it was done from one side, then they had to manually do the other. The salad was cleaned, but as whole head(?).
That meant, you had to order from the restaurant - which needed all the equipment and took resources to make everything; at the same time, you still had your kitchen all dirty and spend time on making your own meal.

I'd compare it to something like Blue Apron. You have a selection of dishes to choose from which come with some level of prepared raw ingredients, however you still need to do some amount of cutting, assembling, and cooking. This is great because you can improvise more and maybe create something better than the stock blue apron meal. Turns out home cooking is pretty hard, and even though us designers have pretty good taste in food, we're not always great at cooking it. We could all take cooking classes and become better cooks, but actually we have a bunch of bomb-ass michelin star chefs to help us make our culinary dreams a reality.

Unless you're referring to this specific subreddit, Reddit is not primarly NA. NA accounts for roughly 45% of traffic on Reddit.

Damn.... that graph showing Nexus Blitz playtime is really telling, it wasn't even as popular as ARAM, and it was almost dead when it was pulled.

This graph is why Riot isn't "lazy" for focusing less on other game modes. At the end of the day, we want to make things a ton of you enjoy for long periods of time. I worked on Nexus Blitz. I wanted it to succeed as much as the next person. Players voted with their time. People just don't play the vast majority of alternate modes for more than a weekend.

These Loli based names have me perplexed; when did it become cool/funny to pretend to be a paedophile?
