TLDR: Riot is downscaling. The severance package is great but it's another round of layoffs in the industry.

This will also majorly affect Legends of Runeterra. They're putting the game on life support it seems, and will focus on the PvE mode.

They're also shutting down Riot Forge, their collaboration with other studios to make smaller games with their IP.

I don't take any company seriously that expects their customer base to willingly allow ring zero access.

literally a rootkit bruh

Not even the linux wine hackers feel like removing the DRM just to play the game. They'd rather spend that time on an actual needed software like photoshop.

Yep. I'm glad I quit playing LoL a long time ago, when it stopped being fun and everything got typecast to very specific roles. I used to be able to do great in any position there was as teemo. Fun times.
