League of Legends, The Game That Changed My Life

  The day when "that game" was released became one of the most memorable days of my life. It just brought people together as it never had before, you could see all kinds of people from different ages playing and laughing together, it was just magical.

  October 27th of 2009 was the day when the game League of Legends came live, for some reason everybody was excited for that game, many due the similarities with Dota which was a popular game at that time. I was at the school when that game released and it was a friend of mine who assembled the whole crew to play together. The first day of gameplay was kind of boring due the complexity of the game, however the friend of mine who introduced me to the game had already played it so he could explain more in depths how that game actually worked. It was already past one week since the first day we played, by the time we were already pretty decent at the game and everybody got how to play it, at least the basics of it.

 As the time passed and the game became more known by the media, more had join our gaming group and that time they were people from another social group than our, they were the soccer players from school that hardly ever spoken to us. The group became a really fun place were there were no differences between each other, of course there were some minor conflicts, but that is more than normal in groups.

  The years passed and people found other hobbies, so did most of the group. To be honest I was kind of sad when people from the group began to leave. But the best part was that only the best of my friends kept playing the game and for me it never became boring at some point. The memories of when we got together and played all night were unforgettable and till this day at a certain time of the year we still do the same ritual.
