Worst event in League of Legends history

The League of Legends in -game event "Guardians of the Light" is coming to an end. On July 30, two final episodes became available, which told us about the end of the confrontation of the galaxy of champions to the formidable enemy - Viego.

After completing the game, most of the players expressed their dissatisfaction, which resulted in criticism of the developers, ranging from the uselessness of the event to ignorance of the lore of their own game.

Bad event system

This is not the first in-game event of this kind: the experiment with "Spiritual Ties" was quite successful and Riot Games decided to make similar events with text games in the client more often.

Despite the positive reviews, even the first event of this series was criticized, since most of the dialogue choices did not affect the ending in any way, and the player still received a reward in the form of a champion shard or skin. On the other hand, the purchase of an event pass did not affect the final reward in this minigame in any way, and all players were equal despite their purchasing power.

This time Riot Games abandoned the visual novel style and now the choice of dialogue has absolutely no effect on the continuation of the story, and the player has ceased to be the main character altogether, becoming a "recruit" of champions from the game world.

It is worth noting that until now, buying an event pass still does not provide advantages, but against the background of other disadvantages, this detail has remained unnoticed.

Skins Event

For the first time, Riot Games released 11 new skins, modeled after the storyline. The quality of the images is always individual for everyone, since there is no dispute about tastes, but then the community took all the additional content positively.

"Guardians of the Light" greeted us with 10 different looks and a new champion, who was not given an image corresponding to the theme of the event, although the developers almost always did just that. Moreover, most of the players absolutely did not like the new skins for their favorite characters.

Weak history and ignorance of your own lore

The Visual Novel format was successful as it did not require knowledge of the history of the game and left the champion "1v1" with the player, so "Spiritual Ties" still had success with the community.

The history of "Guardians of the Light", according to the reviews of real players, "is simply awful and needs to be removed."

Also, some users found a discrepancy between the plot and the lore of the game, and in particular the champion of Yorick.

At the moment, the event has a rating of 2.6/10 on the nga.cn website.
