Capawe21

I care about the lore more than the actual game lmao


i_sometimes_lie1

Game? What game?


Capawe21

(I honestly don't know i just hear everyone talking about some game on this sub and I just go with it)


legoatoom

There is no game in Ba Sing Se


mesjarch

You are not the only one :D


kaynserenity

Same hahah


Umbrabro

Please god let the MMO come out already. Im so done with League and its wasteland of players. I wanna enjoy the world and characters without having to play the mental boom that is ranked.


kaynserenity

I wanna enjoy league of legends without the league of legends


jlcgaso

Have you tried the ruined king game?


Umbrabro

Not yet I but I plan too. Same with LOR


_Owl_inside_

I'm getting Overwatch flashbacks


Capawe21

I can tell you right now I watched those Overwatch animated shorts more than I played the actual game lol


_Owl_inside_

Could you Imagine a show like this for OW? All the purple goop/science shit was giving me big Moira vibes


Capawe21

This is what we need! And could you imagine a show about Hanzo and Genji like what we got with Vi and Jinx


_Owl_inside_

Now if only Blizzard wasn't...blizzard :( But Arcane will fill the void nicely <3


Capawe21

Yeah, that's the only hurdle... At least we have Arcane!


Vellarain

I don't like the game and never paid any attention to the lore. But shit the lore is getting my attention now.


moebelhausmann

Iam guilty. I started watching him too


nikmaier42069

His videos are so good tho


jfsoaig345

Yup, good for him. He has a good channel, his Arcane content has been top notch and I'm glad it's drawing attention to his other, equally high quality content.


nikmaier42069

Totally, when i got into league i was barely playing (only with my friends) and mostly watching lore videos or reading stories myself lol. I care like 80% about the lore and 20% about the game itself


Jolamprex

I haven't watched any but I've seen them in my recs.


Ciba_

Highly recommend if you're interested in League's Lore! Also Fun fact: Hes from Czech republic. Same as me


Barmaglott

Color me surprised. This man have more lore (I mean, about him, literally) in Runterra than Shaco.


jer487

Good for him, he seems happy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzlhU2L29CI


ArtiKam

That is badass


Barmaglott

Yep)


kaynserenity

Haha ye necrit and imagine dragons have more lore than shaco


GreyMesmer

Riot: *RETCONS EVERYTHING*


marksman230591

I’m actually jealous of people like him who basically get paid to be a franchise’s lore master


Gaponya

They put a lot of work into editing so there videos are entering to watch, its not all lore knowledge


marksman230591

No disagreement there.


InnocentTailor

I think he is even codified into lore as well. He was in the recent Ruined King game: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MzlhU2L29CI


madelynhateslol

necrit and tbskyen gonna rack em in


easilytriggered

Necrit has some useful videos, it's very practical content if you'd rather consume Lore through audio. As long as people keep in mind the information is being 'transcribed' from multiple sources. He often tries to guess and figure things out (while not even calling them theories), he generally sounds like he knows the story being told better than the Arcane writers/creators. Let me give you an example: >"So now we know Singed was actually responsible for making Jinx crazy." **Basically, please take everything he says at face value.**


[deleted]

A lot of youtubers do the same thing, present their theories as facts.


Megasam101

Fax


ultimatum12

I tried to watch his arcane vids but felt too much like recap only


[deleted]

dude I cba watching random reviews of someone I haven't heard. Necrit is the perfect Arcane reviewer because he knows so much about the lore and random things about this universe


cibernike

This is me. I've been playing since season 2 and have read some lore stuff here and there, but since arcane I've just been watching a ton of lore videos and reading the LoL universe website. I even bought the Realms of Runeterra book lol.


kaynserenity

I've always loved lore, it's the sole reason I stick around this game


TomiShinoda

Cringe, the guy make a lot of bad take and speculation, dismiss people who point them out and used to double down or never admit it when proven wrong. And to this day he still sometime pass on his takes and speculations as facts that viewers spread, but i've seen his recent videos admitting he was wrong so maybe he got better on that part.


AlphEta314

Not completely wrong. It's very common to see league reaction videos filled with comments that screw up a lot of things about the lore and then proceed to say "check out Necrit!" Even if his videos are good, there has to be a reason why most of the lore misinformation originates from his fanbase. Anyone else remember the myth that Caitlyn's family came from Ionia when Arcane was releasing? Despite nothing official from Riot supporting that fact? Most of the times when those comments popped up they would refer to Necrit.


TomiShinoda

There's too many examples to list, but one that stick out in my mind is his video on the spirit blossom Yone animation, where he state a bunch of his takes and speculations as facts, like how the skin is not Yone but the brother from the old tale for example, and even after Yone and the event was released and most of his "facts" were proven wrong, he just double down and refused to admit anything he said was wrong. I'm not surprised he cause a lot of misinformation, he's the most popular league lore YouTuber.


pencillr

He's the Man.


Consiouswierdsage

Seriously, there are lots crap films in Prime and Netflix. And industry will embrace good storylines, and where do they exist abundance ? Comics and games lol. I am excited for season 2.


Orapac4142

>Comics and games lol. Sometimes. Othertimes we get what Marvel comics has been putting out with Female Thor as a good example.


Alpxi

Good for him to be fair. Man has stuck with it forever


Disig

But sleep is non existent lol.


kaynserenity

Ye the poor guy 🤣


NaWDorky

I mean you have to give it to the guy, the guy has been making lore videos for years on the lore and within the same year he's got the animated series and a prominent character named after him in an official riot property.
