Hi Reav3! Thank you for the response. Can you explain a little bit more about the doubling points? Because the first thing I noticed when I got to the second region is that the amount of points needed to progress ALSO increased. I am feeling right now that even tho I got a new sentinel (wich increases the points I get per game) the bar just got even higher, so it does not change much. I think that's where my frustration comes from. Also, sorry if I sound confused, english is not my first language.

Aren't you directing the event? Why didn't you make this upfront and clear in game? Half the people playing right now are burning themselves out because at the current rate they will have to play litreally HUNDREDS of games to complete the event. It was front page ALL day yesterday and we find this out now through a comment? Come on dude

Edit: Like come on you told me days ago I needed to play through the event for the lore answers that where bothering me, WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME THEN?

I wonder how /u/Reav3 feels about most of the playerbase not being able to even see the culmination of almost a year of lore drops and build up. They clearly worked very hard to make this a special event and then they decide that the only people who get to experience it properly are the subset of the playerbase who has no problems playing 25 games a week for over a month.

Not to mention them disabling the ability to complete things in PvE. Locking even more of the playerbase out of the lore. It's baffling. You want people to care about the world you create and then you make it so grindy that barely anyone will get the full story.

Just out of curiosity, won't her release be extremely out of place considering she's coming out after the event that's meant to be her big spotlight? How can her appearnce in the game be explained after all of this?

i got to meet Gwen (did not play much yesterday) and that’s it. and took just a few mins. i’m just curious because if you say 20h long visual novel there must be A LOT of those little conversations which i would not have expected.

So she basically tries to win his affection by powering him up? Or does she just like his vision for how the world should be so she in turn wants to help him make it? Either way I'm pretty hype for her and her lore stuff with Veigo!

i don’t understand i already unlocked the first part in demacia, do you mean we have 20h long worth of conversations or more like it takes 20h to grind it all lol? bc those conversations were short

Since you were just talking about Vex, can you share with us how close she is until she gets released as a champion? I know we just have Akshan, but I remembered the Lillia-Yone back to back release, so I wondered.

I can respect this idea of physical only Relic Weapons but I urge you to consider allowing a wider variety in the rosters for upcoming major summer events. I want to engage in this story but there are none of my character archetypes and playstyles in here. Maybe adding someone like Taric who uses a mace and fights for life and beauty would’ve added a different “color” to this squad. Either way, super rad event, I just have no way in with any of these characters.

Man I wish all these stories were released when they were meant to. I have been off the internet for a few weeks so I guess Vex is the shadow yordle? Is all this new information? If so pretty big reveal to drop on a reddit comment lol. Cheers.

Why is there no variety in terms of the champions selected? Why did no mages or enchanters or tanks join the fight against Viego? It feels extremely limiting that the only ones that can be Sentinels are characters that fulfill a hypercarry ad fantasy. I’m not sure how much of a “ragtag” group it is if it only appeals to a specific subset of players.

I appreciate the response and I agree with you on most parts. However if you don't mind a little bit of hopefully constructive criticism, I feel like it could have been better if either Irellia, Diana or Riven got the legendary instead of Graves, or if Vayne had more character growth in hers.

Right now both of them have the kind of "eh I don't really care that the world's ending I'm just here for the cool guns" vibe with their voicelines, which I feel takes away from the impact of the event since they're the front and center. Using your analogy, In Guardians of the Galaxy, Starlord has Gamora as the serious side to balance his more... carefree attitude, and I think a lot of the complaints come from people who expected more of an Avengers approach to this cataclysmic event than the Guardians who are a bit more silly.

TLDR: I dont mind that graves got a skin, I think it fits pretty well actually. I just feel like Vayne should be taking this a little more seriously, s...

This is unrelated but since you are currently active may I ask something: is there any reason why Viego's power is so absurd? Why can he revive a god? Why can the Black Mist corrupt petricite when it can hold the literal source codes of all magic?

I greatly appreciate the post from a human perspective and I thank you for taking the time to explain your process. Your words provide some insight towards the choices this event, but I also feel like some of the things said feel really off.

Skin choices aside, as we know this will always be a factor whether good or bad, the choices themselves still don't really fit what you've mentioned, for myself and a lot of others.

Where Guardians of the Galaxy, Suicide Squad and X-Men work is that there's either a common thread or mood attempting to be portrayed. Whether that's collective comedy of GotG (which Odyssey does very well), and some misadventures being funny, or with SS that all share bad guy statuses that don't play to anyone's rules other than their own. Or even X-Men where they are much more all over the place, but never feel out of place and all come together with very few actually being bad guys.

With the choices made, and yes even the narrative choices...

I mean unfortunately this IS just PR bullshit, as much as you convey all of this its just blatantly all about money (obviously its what they have to do), but ill give you credit i think the inclusion of olaf, irelia and graves was very good and smart cause it hit a sweetspot of champs that dont get a crazy amount of love (except irelia) but feel just right in the event (but NOT graves repping pilt/zaun, you guys robbed a lot of ppl that love that region with that) in terms of where you guys missed the mark its just sad, “we thought this would progress vayne the best” what??? you must be joking, vayne has LITERALLY been in a absolute shit ton of events, you know that right??? Her and riven were LITERALLY IN SPIRIT BLOSSOM, im not gonna elaborate too much more cause its not worth, at the end of the day you guys just rely on your money grabbers such as vayne and riven. The last thing is i feel you maybe, justtt maybe Reav3 you should actually chat with ppl that know the lore, let me a...

Hi,

I personally love what you guys have done with the event and just wanted to start of by giving you guys some positive feedback, the event looks amazing and I love the 1 year arc story that you guys have gone for this year.

The only "negative" (which could be proven wrong) feedback I have is that I would have loved to see Yorick either join the Sentinels or break free from the power of mist like Unbound Thresh. I want to make it clear that I don't know a lot about the lore/Yorick's connect to the Mist. All I know is that his persona/lore is based around the Mist and Viego so I really do hope he will make an appearance and received a good quality skin throughout this event.

I am someone who plays really unpopular champions (Ivern, Yorick, Pre-rework Mundo, Pre-and Post-Rework Fiddle, Maokai etc) which is why I think this "means more to me" than any other event/skinline that we have seen in recent times. Yorick would be an amazing fit for this story arc. Si...

Vayne makes the most sense and is a good fit, Olaf is one as well, but characters like Pyke are kind of just ??? and he's legit one of my favorites in the game universe.

Not seeing Yorick, or how champions become ruined is another thing. In voice line interactions it speaks that people like Miss Fortune, Karma, and Draven sold themselves and intentionally sided with Viego which doesn't fit the cinematic of them being taken over, or their characters personality.

Maybe the pandemic did a lot more to change how things worked then anticipated but there's a lot of missing pieces that need to be filled or they just seem kind of mishandled or nonsensical from the current stand point.

The event will have more cinematics right? I feel like the one we received has a continuation, graves pyke miss fortune etc

What is this Visual Novel you keep mentioning? Is it already available?
I feel like I'm missing a lot of lore about this event; people keep mentioning Gwen's interactions with the Sentinels but I haven't seen that yet...
