IGN: League of Legends First Look

There was a new game announced from a new studio today. And while you may not have heard of League of Legends: Clash of Fates or its creator Riot Studios, you may have heard of something that the folks at Riot have previously created: Defenders of the Alliance Allstars, a popular mod for Warcraft III. DotA Allstars is popular enough that it is played globally and is often featured in professional gaming tournaments. It is, as its creators like to describe it, the RTS equivalent to the king of all FPS mods, Counter-Strike.

League of Legends takes the core gameplay of DotA and develops it into a full game of its own, which is huge considering that DotA rose to popularity with but a single map. (Imagine if Counter-Strike had only shipped with DE_Dust.) The developers themselves are veterans of the industry, coming from Valve, Blizzard, Activision, EA, and other high-profile studios.

People can be pretty stupid when it comes to money. I mean there was an article on here about a moron who spent $1 million on a skin for a gun. And look how many suckers feed Star Citizen cash as well. So I would not be surprised if some dumbass was or is dumb enough to buy this skin. $500 for a skin nah I would rather use the money towards something tangible like food, rent, gas, bills.

I doesn't matter if we boycott or not. This Skin was never meant for the western market. Korea and China are the true targets and they will buy it like there is no tomorrow.

You don't need to give us reasons why to boycott the skin / game / company. We already know to do so.
