An Important Update about Riot’s Future (www.riotgames.com)

TLDR: Riot is downscaling. The severance package is great but it's another round of layoffs in the industry.

This will also majorly affect Legends of Runeterra. They're putting the game on life support it seems, and will focus on the PvE mode.

They're also shutting down Riot Forge, their collaboration with other studios to make smaller games with their IP.

I was laid off from my small warehouse job because the company wasn't making enough money. The next month my boss took his family on an African safari. Eat the rich.
