&gt; How long have you been gone?  I think you might be out of date.<p>Many years, I last solidly played sometime in 2011 and maybe a couple games with close friends in 2012.<p>I fully realize I am out of date, but I just wanted to provide a perspective of LoL that most people do not realize: There was a significant community of roleplay&#x2F;lore interest in the game early on, most of whom were not the ragey type, that was immediately alienated by Riot&#x27;s early business and personnel decisions. That brutal year or so of negativity within their community that still plagues the MOBA image could have been avoided if the more moderate parts of their community from the beta and first year had not been driven away.
