At dawn on May 28 (Vietnam time), Riot Games officially introduced the Faker's celebration of the “Demon King's heritage” group. Not only Ahri and Leblanc costumes, this event also includes a series of expressions, titles … based on Faker's career. These products show that Riot really has a great investment for the “Demon King” gratitude event.
Riot recently officially introduced the legendary Ahri outfit and many symbols, emotes … associated with Faker's career
However, when looking at the price of the Bundle opened by Riot Games in this event, the community was extremely indignant. The reason comes from the 100 -level event ticket collection, the immortal legendary Ahri outfit costs up to nearly 60 thousand RP. This number of RP in international servers is worth up to 500 USD (more than 12 million VND) and is said to be the “heavenly” price. Right at the home server, this Bundle will be worth about 6 million VND and make many Vietnamese gamers “distorted”.
The Signature package of the upcoming event will be sold for 59260 RP. This number in international server is priced at more than 500 USD, in Vietnam server, this number of RP costs about 6 million VND
It should be known that Ahri is an extremely attractive character of League of Legends, when combined with Faker's gratitude event, it will earn a lot of money for Riot Games. Therefore, Riot can completely let a “more comfortable” price to earn money and not criticized by the community. Many gamers also have a “conspiracy theory” that Riot offers such a high price to make money quickly to invest in a big project. And almost immediately the League of Legends role -playing game project (or MMO League of Legends) was mentioned.
“Faker will really earn enough money to make a funding for that MMO project” – a gamer shared
“Riot is trying to” squeeze milk “players with this Bundle to get money to develop the MMO project” – another player agrees
“This event alone will make enough money for the development of the MMO project” – another gamer also shared this idea
Remember at the 10 -year -old Riot Games event, they once published promising images of the open world role -playing game. However, since then, this project has not had any more official information about the gameplay, character or the world. Even in March this year, the “Boss” Marc “Tryndamere” Merrill also announced the information quite sadly that this game will “go into the dark” for a long time. This makes the MMO League of Legends game still have to wait a long time to be released.
Riot's founder once reassured fans when revealing that the MMO League of Legends project will not be able to launch in the near future: “Please understand that” no new information is good “because that means we are working hard and devoted to implementing this project”.
Moreover, this game is likely to fall into the “development hell” when Riot has replaced three development teams in just 1 year. This can lead to the cost of developing the MMO League of Legends project will be pushed up extremely high and need a lot of resources from Riot. Therefore, the community thinks about Riot Games seeking to “squeeze milk” the player as much as possible by the event honoring Faker to serve this project. In school, this is more real, Riot's MMO project is like being “saved” thanks to Faker's reputation.
In about 1 year (from March 2023 to March 2024), the MMO League of Legends project replaced three development team leaders including Ghostcrawler, Vijay Thakar and Riot Faburisu (order from left to right)
Of course, the above speculation from the League of Legends community only stopped at the level of “conspiracy theory”. It is a way to explain from the community for the high price of the Bundle in the upcoming fame hall event. If the speculation from the community is true, it only shows that Faker is too important for Riot Games.
