As of 2014, AGUE TARD has made nearly one billion dollars off microtransactions in a span of nine months. Why is this bad? Because the people who own League of Legends happen to be a company known as Tencent腾讯 You probably have no idea who this company is, even if you play League, and with good reason; whereas companies like EA are incredibly auspicious when it comes to how mediocre and anti-consumer their practices are, Tencentare smart enough to manipulate you without saying a word about it. Let's learn a little more about Tencent. Tencentis a Chinese company who owns a monopoly in online games(like League) instant messaging clients .social networking sites Chinese paypal equivalents (i.e: knock-offs) Soso.com, or "Chinese Google" microblogging sites If you live in China, you have to go through Tencent ifyou want access to half the things on your (heavily-neutered and outright censored) internet. Yes, all one billion of them In addition, Tencent has 4 wholly-owned foreign enterprises and twenty smaller subsidiaries. These include Riot Games, creators of League of Legends Tencent now controls every facet of the game. Epic Games, creators of such titles as Gears of War. As well as the Unreal Engine. Yes, if your game uses Unreal, you are giving Tencent royalties. Activision Blizzard, creators of World of Warcraft The genesis of micro-transactions suddenly appearing in WoW is not a coincidence, people. If Riot Games is to be believed, the amount of people playing League of Legends averages out to 67 million people An equivalent to one third of the United States population is giving China money, enabling them to buy shares in western companies. Dota 2 Mount & Bla 圓G Not Hearthstone (but sauspic lously sin b 2:70 0 Tencentis a filthy company notorious for copying western games, right down to downloading their very assets, and repurposing them for Chinese audiences This is not only blatant theft, but it's also a clever way of Tencent tricking Chinese youth (who have only recently gained access to this sort of entertainment) into thinking western games are copying Tencent. In short: Chinese company takes money out of the west, and Chinese company steals from the west to make money If you keep supporting games like League of Legends, you are supporting the subtle takeover of video games by slimy companies such as Tencent.
