to new heroes and cosmetic skins to customize the look of your heroes. You can purchase points to spend on ‘bundles’ to access more heroes and upgrades quickly if you really love the game.
The graphics are very well done and are satisfying for the nature of the game and its gameplay, they are nothing ground breaking but they are crisp and clear enough to keep you hooked onto the action. The sound and music are good but I hate the announcer’s voice, it doesn’t suit the game to hear an ‘elderly grandma’ say: ‘double kill’… You can replace sound files but I’d prefer to have the option at the start.
Character Selection
With a near infinite variety of possible games there are dozens of free guides on the internet that will teach you how to play a hero and what items and skills to get for that hero, these are called ‘builds’. One example of these league of legends builds, there is a melee hero called ‘Master Yi’ he is strongest with physical attacks so its best to get items increase his damage or attack speed. This requires you to learn (even study) a lot about the game, it’s heroes, strategies, league of legends items and even the enemy heroes you are facing against!! This fact makes it pretty daunting for new players but league of legends has a Co-Op vs AI option so that you can learn the game easier then move on to matches against other players.
One note about the game that is ambiguous; league of legends has a system of ‘masteries’ and ‘runes’, these are Skill or Talent Trees that will improve whatever hero you play, these are irrelevant because they only give minor enhancements to your hero and you do not need to invest a lot of time into it until you are level 30, and by then you’ll learn what you need in these systems.
The League of legends requirements are not too trying and nearly any system with a dual core processor and a decent video card can handle it easily.
3 GHz Processor
1 GB RAM
GeForce 8800 or better
(After you’ve installed and started the game, you may need to increase some settings like the resolution.)
Summary; the game gives you free access to a random group of heroes each week, if you have a free afternoon try it out.
Multiplayer 9/10 (Takes time to learn)
Gameplay 9/10
Graphics 8/10
Sound 7/10 (WTB Alternate Announcer Voice)
Fun 9/10 (Get some friends to download it for free and have a party!)
I highly recommend playing this game, the link below goes to the league of legends download, its free and worth a try, even if you and your friends have never played it before you can match up against Computer Bots and practice.
