    I've never played it before in my life but I've somehow become addicted to watching videos of people playing it.

    Today I discovered that strategy rpgs are my thing and I've been branching out finding new ones, and I really want to play League of Legends because of the real-time aspect and it looks like it could be fun but I highly doubt my laptop could play it. And yeah I know there are other ones that you probably think are better but the colors feel nice on my eyes.


    awh well

    can someone explain this video card stuff to me? that wasn't something I researched when I bought this thing. I'm pretty sure I get it but I want to hear it from someone who actually knows what they're talking about.

    Legal Legends has a pretty bad community and is run by a pretty not great group of folk from what I've seen. It also runs in Adobe Air, which means it's in 2D and those things moving are actually sprites. Regardless, I'm not gonna say not to play it because I have a lot of friends who do, just don't become addicted to playing it and don't be a stereotypical player.

    I used to play League of Legends for a while last year, but I stopped until a few months ago when my friend asked to me play it with him again. I did, and it was fun for a couple of weeks, but then I got bored of it again. It's not interesting enough for me to sink the money into it to get the champions and there's only like one map for each game type. I just feel like every match boils down to the same thing and what it boils down to isn't fun enough to keep me playing for long. That's just me though.

    And also, LoL isn't really an SRPG by any means. Go play Disgea, Advance Wars, Valkyria Chronicles, or FFTA2.
    sorry for hamfisting my recommendations into your thread

    Video cards deal with graphics, basically (it's why they're also known as graphical processing units/gpus). It's likely that you could play LoL on your card, but you'd have to really turn down some settings. I dunno what LoL has specifically but for most games that means you turn down the resolution, shadows, item detail, etc. On a laptop you can't really upgrade your GPU.
