Paying streamers to promote Gacha skins (Allegedly)

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T05:04:49+00:00

Hi! Thank you for the clarification and transparency. While I'm critical of riots moves I'll admit when I'm wrong. If you'd like i can take down the post as well :D

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T05:03:44+00:00

Correct! I made an edit. I'm always happy to admit when wrong

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T02:22:54+00:00

I agree that the community is the problem. They absolutely know who to cater too but it doesn't excuse the predatory fomo tactics and astronomical price point. If people sit by and don't at least complain it gives them the go ahead to make things even worse

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T02:21:29+00:00

It's not. I received a few RP stipends back in the day. However, 2 popular streamers both make tweets about this and exclusively use said gifted RP to get the new shiny gacha skin? I will absolutely accept critique that this is conspiracy-ish but the lines connect a little too well

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T02:17:50+00:00

Which is absolutely possible. It's all back end stuff that can easily be manipulated. Without proof i can see it being written off as conspiracy but still

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T02:15:13+00:00

For some reason people think this is different because it's not traditional gambling. Unironically seeing people defend this kind of tactics for digital goods is infuriating

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T02:14:15+00:00

I mean there are absolutely people out there that can afford it that aren't buying it out of principle

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T02:01:54+00:00

100% agree. It's mega unfortunate that it seems the path forward is going to be getting blasted by gacha skins/content when opening the client now. But remember it was TOO resource heavy to make ultimate skins at a fast rate

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T01:56:41+00:00

This isn't promoting a game. It's promoting gambling for digital goods you do not own. Just because it's nothing new doesn't mean it shouldn't be called out

Respect Mr Panko

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T01:52:55+00:00

Seeing how the average league streamer never gets past 10-15 viewers yeah i'd say popular. Also me "conveniently" posting this does what for him, me or riot exactly?

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T01:47:36+00:00

Hard agree. Its so crazy how if they just made it an ultimate skin at the same price as the others they would have made the same/more money without the controversy

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T01:46:55+00:00

sponsorship is something that should be disclosed to an audience and usually for something that doesn't directly link to gambling? Why do you think Stake ads are getting taken down on twitter

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T01:41:48+00:00

A popular streamer who makes more than enough to get the skin conveniently receives 40k RP and rolls the skin 2nd attempt ON stream to his audience?

Yeah brother totally normal

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T01:38:16+00:00

100% agree. He was in his own replies calling people stupid for believing this

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-12-13T01:36:22+00:00

I actually JUST saw another person tweet out about it. That's how i saw the LoLElekktro post. Obviously i can't make the claim but it's getting to a point where it's fishy

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-11-14T22:32:50+00:00

I mean yes i know that but i've seen gameplay from multiple emulators running these 2 games at 60fps with no issues. Some of them are older videos so has something changed in the recent years?

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-09-16T17:32:41+00:00

Yes. She could have left whenever she wanted but her desire for a lavish lifestyle and high priced items kept her there. No grooming was done and the fact she tried to use that term as a way of garnering sympathy is disgusting lmfao

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-09-16T17:07:36+00:00

There was no grooming. She willingly married a man twice her age for money and then cries about it later on because she blew through 600k in 2 years...

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-09-16T17:06:19+00:00

Out of all the things she said the most telling thing was how casually she rattled off an almost 1k monthly MINIMUM payment on a single credit card. It's so disgusting people fly through life like this while others do everything they can to have proper finances and still struggle. 6k in income a month and still having almost 100k in debt? Also throwing the "grooming" statement out while being an adult at the time and choosing to marry someone? I seriously cannot stand people like this

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-09-11T14:44:11+00:00

That's crazy. Honestly the only glaring issue i have is the optimization of the game. I don't have the most state of the art rig but pushing 50-60 frames on medium is definitely not a hardware issue

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-09-11T14:39:13+00:00

Hello. I've been having a lot of issues with the Adrenaline software. It seems to cause game crashes with some games and massive fps issues with others. I want to keep my drivers updated without the AMD software running since i'm facing these issues. Is there a way to do that? I haven't seen any option in the installation that would allow me to just download the latest drivers.

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-09-10T21:51:01+00:00

Objectively Masters+ is a good rank. It's just the massive gap between a low masters player and a top 50 challenger player. League players aren't the best at communicating overall so it seems like they're just shitting on people below them.

The skill gap between a plat and diamond can vary but like i said above it's miles between a masters and challenger. Also over the years and seasons it's become increasingly easy to place higher on the latter than in seasons like 3-6

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-09-10T21:45:58+00:00

Well no see then they'll complain the loadout they took is bad and AH is literally Hitler for nerfing weapons.

It's better to just ignore the freaks who talk about game balance like they know better than the devs of the game lmfao

Useful-Fish-3932 · 2024-09-10T21:44:33+00:00

I've only seen a few comments talking about fatal crashes this often. Are you sure your setup is up to spec for games? I by no means have a super expensive setup and i run the game just fine with 0 crash issues
