Read on Twitter
Another day another reddit thread bashing GGMF without actually knowing what the skin had. She actually does have entirely new animations, we were just restricted in what we could do (had to keep them almost identical to base). https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/dzz40x/riot_hasnt_released_an_ultimate_skin_for_over_15">https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueo...
P.S. She did fine, she was not the failure Reddit seems to think she was.
The ordeal DID ultimately result in me leaving Riot, so I guess that& #39;s a win for the people who demanded I get fired

To clarify: I left on my own. I was never able to get over GGMF even when everyone else did. No one thought it was my fault but me. It led to burnout. Every skin set I worked on I was trying to "make up for it." It was unhealthy. TD Ekko was my final "I hope this does it"
It& #39;s hard to be a lead. I felt responsible that literally several dozen devs and artists were being screamed at on Twitter and Reddit. I felt like I should have done more to protect them.
Be kind to devs, we& #39;re human. No one& #39;s trying to purposely fuck you over.

Btw I& #39;m not blaming the community. Everyone else was able to get over it but me. My boss was exasperated that I couldn& #39;t move on and repeatedly told me certain choices simply weren& #39;t mine to make, so it wasn& #39;t my fault. In the end its just my own brain and mental issues.
I miss working with artists, being a lead and making things people love, but there& #39;s other ways I can do that. I wanna be the BBIC https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ" title="Face with tears of joy" aria-label="Emoji: Face with tears of joy"> So when bad things happen it& #39;s 100% my fault. That way I& #39;m never like, "what if I had argued for x more?" I have 0 issues being the wringable neck
This thread is apparently top of r/lol so I wish I had a mixtape to share
Last comment: I have 14k followers BECAUSE I interacted w/ community through it all. People say I couldn& #39;t handle the criticism, so it& #39;s good that I left. Ok, but who is the community talking to now? There& #39;s a reason 90% of LoL devs aren& #39;t public. It& #39;s not about a thin skin.
Passionate people care. It& #39;s hard to put *everything* into something and not care, so most devs just stay off reddit/twitter because otherwise it& #39;s just demoralizing. I wasn& #39;t paid to talk to the community, I wanted just to. I& #39;ll never apologize for being hurt by the thing I love
