Riot is yet again proving they are completely incapable of doing anything that is not League of Legends, TFT or Valorant.
I just started playing the game after it launched on consoles because they need their bullshit anticheat for a fucking fighting game for some reason, so I can't run it on Linux, and not even a month after the official release they are already firing half the development team.
This is smelling awfully like another LOR, which didn't die because the game is "too fair" or whatever other bullshit g*mers say about the game, but rather because Riot is literally incapable of doing the bare minimum to ensure their own game's success, be it doing actual advertising, both irl and in other related games they own like the fucking League client, or doing joint events between their games, or not asking for an arm a leg for a single skin like it is right now on 2XKO.
How can this multi billion dollar company be so incompetent?
Devs talking about being fired:
Yeah that's the point though, it's derivative of it. They didn't make their own game, they wanted to make MvC3 again. Their favourite game. I misspoke in my other comment.
I mean sure, but MvC3 with all the QoL stuff from the last few years of fighting games development sounds super appealing... to me.
Which is kinda the heart of the problem I'm trying to get at, just cause I'm not Saudi Arabia and I can't single-handedly fund rito games means that when through some miracle we do get something that only appeals to me and a handful of others nostalgic for the arcade days the execs are gonna pull the ripcord
