A tweet about a possible LoL MMO is causing excitement in the gaming community. Would you play a League of Legends MMO?
Huge stir after tweet: The MOBA League of Legends has existed since 2009 and is extremely successful. After so many years, fans are wondering what will come “after” LoL. A tweet from one of the game’s founders is now giving hope for an MMO. And people are celebrating this prospect.
LoL as an MMO – the community is excited
A different side of the known heroes? In recent years, fans of League of Legends have come to love the MOBA and its heroes. In an MMO, there could be a new perspective on Teemo, Ashe, Soraka, Veigar, and the others. This excites the gamers.
Because lore has always been an important point in LoL: The stories offer a lot of potential for a deep, engaging story of an MMO.
The tweet from Marc “Tryndamere” Merrill, one of the LoL founders, went viral. Over 5000 retweets and 31,000 likes testify to the hype in the LoL community. He asked fans if they would like a LoL MMO.
Feedback from the community – the wish for an MMO
Hope awakened: It is unclear how much fun or seriousness lies behind Tryndamere’s tweet. Yet, gamers are already imagining whether they would enjoy such an MMO in the LoL universe.
On Reddit, player Sub_Cheat writes: “If a single tweet fuels your imagination so much that you imagine facing a Cho’Gath with 20 players from your Noxus guild in Shurima armor.” In response, a user writes: I didn’t even know how much I wanted that until I read your comment.
The secret wish? Like the users on Reddit, many players feel the same. A LoL MMO is what many desperately want – but didn’t even know it.
Gamers wish for a new MMO: The desire for a new, high-quality MMO has long been present in the community. Even in our comments, it shows that many wish for such an MMO and could imagine playing it. Even if they have nothing to do with LoL itself.
That the thirst for a new MMO is present is mentioned repeatedly. Also in the responses to the tweet that triggered the LoL MMO hype.
Would you be in, if the implementation is right?
You have to utilize the potential: The areas, their maps, and champions offer a lot of room for an exciting MMO. Riot has done a lot in recent years to ensure that the story of League of Legends is coherent. With the new map of Runeterra, which you can find on the LoL website, everyone can take a look at all areas and form their own opinion about it.
If Riot is serious about the idea of an MMO, they “just” have to make the best out of this potential. Would you play such a LoL MMO or is that not your thing?
Is there a prerequisite that a LoL MMO would have to meet for you to play it? Then write it down in the comments.
