It's a game that has a lot of downsides. The community is a pain to deal with, and the company's management of the game can be a bit questionable. But it takes skill to rank up in LoL, especially in higher elos, and that's what keeps me hooked to it. I love the feeling of accomplishment that you get after grinding out dozens (or even hundreds) of games and finally getting to the next rank

Ohh neat. I used to play, but unfortunately was put off by the community.

I have to ask, have you watched Arcane?

Yeah, the community is very good at scaring away new players, unfortunately xD. You learn to cope with it though, either by muting or flaming them back

Why, yes I have And I was surprised to find out that it's actually a pretty good show, both animation and plot-wise. Didn't expect such good work from a video game company. What about you?

I just finished watching it today! I am also really surprised at how good it was! I also really loved the art style, which I wasn't expecting to like. I daresay, it was one of the most film/TV adaptions for a game that I've seen yet.

I think the only community from which I've been brigaded with insults more would have to be Tarkov. I love that game but they can be toxic. New people are easier to kill and not as fun to watch die.

That's nice! I definitely agree that it's a brilliant adaptation. I don't know about you, but the ending felt like a bit of a cliffhanger to me, so I'm definitely looking forward to the next season (which should come out sometime around 2023)!

Oh wow. I'm not too familiar with Tarkov as a game, but it surprises me that there's a game out there whose community surpasses League's  in terms of toxicity.
Do you still play League, or did the community ruin the experience for you as well?

I do not know how true this is, but I was recently told that one of the things that goes into whether Netflix chooses to axe or renew a show is how much notice the show gets on social media. I'd argue Arcane has hit big time, so I suspect they would be absolute fools not to renew it. That ending definitely leaves room for more seasons. I think they were clever to end it like that, in case there aren't new seasons, but I'd be shocked if there weren't.
