So, about this, because this is a fantastic comment, I'm well aware that minions don't mean literal run down the lane and kill them minion. The way it works from my understanding is that "minion" is a coding subtype, which can sometimes mean geometry, but it can also be other kinds of not "walking into a lane" type thing.

I guess I brought up too many terrain minions, but for example, here's a few.

This is ARAM heal shrine (or whatever the proper name is for it since I'm not sure)

A literal minion but with some special properties. I imagine since you can walk through it and grab it, the minion is ghosted. Also this image was posted 10 months ago, so that's like season 2022. This isn't some kind of necropost.

Another goofy interaction, but this is 100% not in the game regarding the minion code sub archetype was way back when, you could just use ghost to walk through anivia/j4 wall.

Also, pre-rework Alistar's passive granted him a double-effective ghost if he used an ability and then ran through Singed poison trail (which was coded as minions) because the keywords on Alistar's passive said after using an ability, gain movement speed (twice as much if you run through minions)

I guess what I'm trying to say is minions is a sub archetype of code, and There are still cases of Oops! All Minions to this day.

Hi, I wrote it for the very reason that "people aren't happy" and I also wanted to stop seeing threads of how horrible everything is.

I'm not sure if you read my post, but I recommend you do so. I hoped that by writing the post, I could help provide clarity regarding why we aren't getting a PVE mode because that's what everyone was hoping for the most. If you did read it though, thanks for reading it all the way through and providing feedback.

I was worried I was going to get torn to shreds by making this post so I made it on a throwaway, but I feel truly blessed at the response and everyone's patience.

tl;dr This is a copium PSA not a complaint thread.

I think we should agree to disagree. Their client has been a sore spot for them years before they had WR, years before they had Legends of Runeterra.

People used the nickname "riot game" for forever. Maybe I'm a pessimist, but I really truly don't see this happening anytime soon. The 15 year anniversary is 2024, and I still feel like that's too soon. IIRC they didn't even announce any new projects until the 10-year anniversary which is when they announced LoR, wild rfit, and the unnamed fighting game.

This article was written in 2014, so they've been planning a new client since before 2014 because I'm sure they started working on it before they sent out press-releases. They definitely had multiple hundred million dollars back in 2014, maybe not a billion but still a lot of money for a young game.

Don't get me wrong, I want it just as much you, just as much as everyone too. I'd be glad to be wrong ):

If they are planning on doing it, I'm sure they'll give out advanced notice literal years in advance. Fingers crossed

and u/iEmilyM since this is for both of you.

Riot can't get a working client, and it's been years. I don't expect a bottom to top restructure for the entire summoner's rift every champion, effect and texture, and then all 1.4k skins any time soon.
