League will never be able to explicitly have LGBT characters unless they're willing to pay a fine of seven times the revenue this game earns to keep that character.

This is extremely blunt but it will be better for you to find your explicit rep and validation outside of this game--and to be happy for the small things Rioters manage to push for.

Being frustrated at devs that are mostly on your side but can't do anything about it unless they want to lose their job is only going to make you feel worse and invalidated.

Uh idk how to close this downer thread but support smaller queer creators and media that write explicit queer characters and relationships + don't ask more from the devs bc they are very much trying the best they can within the laws they have to follow

also literally trans gay man living in an extremely conservative queerphobic by law country so I don't wanna hear shit

So when I made this thread I initially mentioned its because China has no age rating system for games, which means all games have to be G-rated by conservative standards to get published. The system began a trial run last year
