I said this before, Riot should think about moving LoL to Steam. It would benefit both parties--any potential "competition" to DotA 2 Valve might worry about would be completely outweighed by the massive growth in Steam's installed userbase; and on Riot's side it would allow them to use Steam to manage out-of-game client stuff (e.g. friend list) that otherwise has always been a a problem for Riot.

Hi-Rez has taken a successful page out of Valve's playbook by allowing in game purchases contribute to the prize pool while also giving cool things to earn and collect for the event.

Also, Smite fills a weird niche somewhere between moba and third person shooter/arena fighter. Unfortunately it suffers from the learning curve of a moba and people not wanting to put the time in to learn yet another game with items and god kits. But from the people that have played, I have heard very few people who just severely dislike it.

It's also reaching wider audiences by an XBone client, and I'm sure steam will do nothing but help that.

Okay I feel well enough to try and talk about this.

Back as a teenager I did have a rather odd encounter that I still can't tell you what happened or what I saw that pre dawn morning.
Anyway, so at the time I was living in a townhouse area, essentially a row of townhouses on each side of the street with a dead end at the end of it.
I was talking out the the trash before school, it was early, still completely dark and as I looked around I noticed a person standing under the streetlight at the dead end. Not really doing anything, not moving just standing under the street light, I honestly couldn't even tell you if it was looking towards me. I was confused, then I realized the absurdity of someone standing in the middle of the street in what could of passed as a ring wraith cosplay. Literally looked like some tall guy was wrapped up in a hood and and robe.

I was spooked, so I kind of backed down the sidewalk keeping an eye on this person, trash bag in hand and the dumpster is just in sight of him as it sits on the end of the street near the main road. I look away for what couldn't of been more then a second or two to open the lid and toss the trash in and the persons gone. Ain't no way someone moved that quickly to get out of the middle of the street.
That was my "fuck this" moment, something felt wrong so I pretty much booked it back to my home and waited until the sun came out to actually get to school that day.

I honestly have no idea what or who I saw, it's something I only ever saw once and while I can rationalize it away as some jogger despite me never seeing this person before or again it's creepy to me to just think about it. At this point I don't want to know what or who it was, I just don't like thinking about it.

Oh lord, Parnage. If that happened to me I would have died right there. I think it "might" have been an illusion or trick of the night, but your eyes don't lie. Thank god you got out of it perfectly fine. Your story reminds me of a NoSleep I read a while ago (The Smiling Man? I think).

Moving to Steam won't help neither parties. Both companies are already fairly saturated in brand awareness.

Spellslinger --> Effigy --> Webspinner --> King Krush is an interesting sequence of events.

Also Paladin secret decks are funny.

I don't get it. I'm kinda stoned myself despite drinking tea, but hey, if I'm that tired, headache and stuff then there's hope that me having to focus to see well, or feeling a strain on my eyes during the day comes from tiredness/lack of sleep and not my vision degrading.

One month till ophtalmologist appointment. Hmpf.
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

Does everyone have it or just Ramza? I forgot. But I guess you're spamming that during the first chapter with your squires because you can't handle melee-ing the enemy or something?

It's a Squire skill so everyone can learn it.

I am spamming it for the job points.

I like how it asks you where you are though. Tells me I'm nowhere near the masses but that's probably because I'm Euro without living in a capital city.

It gives me that message even though I'm in a major US city.

Either I'm doing something wrong, or this isn't working properly.

From what I understand it usually does not.

If you count the yearly salaries given out to pro players, Riot gives more money to players than Valve.

But there's an argument to be made that a bigger prize pool increases the sensationalism and hype of an individual event, and an argument that Riot makes so much money that they could increase their prize pools.

The discussion on prize pool is red herring anyway. There are 10+ things wrong with competitive LoL right now and prize pool certainly isn't on the list.
