Thank you for taking the time to elaborate and respond eloquently to a very emotional charged response by me. Your right there is a ton going on behind the scenes that we the community don't know about. BUT it is posts like these that elaborate on whats going on behind the scenes so people don't feel like there is no progress being made. The efforts you have listed above I have never really seen discussed or talked about in the community or from rioters at all. Maybe there is a way we can mitigate this feeling of no traction. It shouldn't take such an emotional rattling to hear about whats going behind the scenes with this stuff. I wish there was a more open dialogue between the community and its internal development. I'm not the only one who feels this way and I'm going to be sending this reply to my friends who have felt like nothing is being done.

It's easy to fall into a pessimistic disposition of negativity when you've experienced something for so long. Reading something like this helps a lot. But it still leaves a huge gap of progress over the last 3-4 years. I want to close that gap as much as you guys do apparently.

Thanks my friend. Appreciate it.

At the very least I hope it stirred up some internal discussion! Thanks again for taking the time to elaborate.

Honestly, it always, always does... :)

Hell yeah Riley!

Wait, is it really that high? Few months ago, when Riot announced they will end XP/Vista support they also mentioned that XP users are around 1% of playerbase and this number is even lower for Vista users.

Much lower than that now. Less than 1%!

I think combined there is still about 4-5% of people still using both xp and vista.

No, it's much lower much less than 1%

Why would the system keep recommending me Dynasty and Midnight Ahri, when I own every other Ahri skin and those two unowned skins are absolute shit and old.
I always play with the latest skin so why would I be interested in an old one. Stop recommending this shit because when I gave 0 fucks for past 10 times, I would give 0 fucks for the next 10 times as well i.e. if the game lasts that long

It can't read your mind, I guess! I'm sure the algorithm will improve more and more over time.

Is this an OS support issue or a DirectX issue?

Path of Exile did something similar recently and they actually ended DirectX 9 support, including DirectX 9 EX(available on Win7) and that meant the game couldn't be played on all video cards that don't support DirectX 11.

There are a lot of PC/laptops that run Windows 8/10 but on DirectX 9 to 10.1 integrated cards.

To be honest, I'm not sure.

really ? is it like difficult to know that when i own 9 out of 11 skins and the 2 left are the oldest ones with lowest quality and I have not bought them despite them being offered to me in almost every Secret Shop, I will never buy it in future also
Are you telling me that in all this data science advancement, Riot team is still coming up with excuses as always like OMG we are already implementing the 101 stuff and now you must wait for 5 years for 102

Ehh... I don't know what you want to get out of being so edgy.
