You know with all you people going “this isn’t going to pass, this isn’t going to pass” you know what would be hilarious? If it passed.

Yeah. No.

All in all, I do not find a problem with enforcing the ESRB and I could not care less one way or the other whether this bill passes or not. In fact, I find it a problem if games cannot or are not being rated by ESRB prior to commercial debut; why do we even have ESRB in the first place if it is not compulsory?

This is tripe.

#1: Most people are missing the point, you included. The biggest problem is not the content of this bill, it's the precedent it would set for future bills. It could become very problematic if they ever tried to extend this to digital downloads, for example.

#2: Many games today are not in fact rated by the ESRB - games on the iPhone, for example. Neither are a number of games on the Xbox Live and PSN, and there are tons of indie games released online commercially. In addition, it costs a few thousand dollars to be rated by the ESRB, something that I wouldn't consider particularly affordable for your random one-two person team.

#3: The ESRB is doing a fine enough job on its own without this crap being institutionalized. It serves its purpose of being a general advisory board quite well without being actual red tape. The only thing this bill will do is cost someone - somewhere - more money, and probably result in the occasional pointless lawsuit, all for no discernible benefit.

i <3 your brain karusman

Last minute (22 hour minute) backing. I've never backed anyone before because I'm a terrible person and don't typically deem things to be very high quality on kickstarter or worth even the minimum $1 requirement.

You went beyond all standards I could possibly have with tremendous ease. It would be foolish not to support such a terrific project.

I look forward to playing your game!

How much work would it take? (mind you, its only half the size of an actual game)
What do you think of the idea?

That is entirely up to you how long it would take. You could completely half ass it and roll out a pile of crap within a day, or take it super seriously and never actually complete it like most overly ambitious projects. Wouldn't be hard to find some monster catching script for vxace, and you could just use the rtp monsters as pokemon. I dunno. Either way. Personally, I wouldn't play it just because I don't really play anything here or contribute in any way whatsoever. But I'm sure there are people who would give it a go.

I used to play League of Legends, made it like two matches from Level 30. I got sick of the unbalanced champs (Garen) and the community as a whole. Most people are just not fun to play with, and it only gets worse the higher level you go.

Also this describes it pretty well:

The game itself is actually decently balanced, especially for having 100+ champions. There are still a few champs that are just outrageous (Jax) or poorly designed (KARTHUS) but there are ways to take down anyone. As for Garen, top lane is basically just a counterpick game, which Karsuman has expressed great displeasure with that to me several times. If they are Garen, you just pick Teemo and kite for days. This is a common instance with several top laners. If they are Darius, be Kayle. If they are Irelia, be Olaf. etc. etc. Even if you lose your lane hard by being counterpicked, you can always come back. If you lose, just let them take turret, then freeze lane further back and just farm until you can start roaming. Mid is sort of a counterpick lane, but usually they are just getting an edge rather than a hard counterpick. Teemo is a hard counterpick to Garen, where no matter what Garen does, and how terrible the Teemo is, Teemo will more than likely win the lane. If I'm Lux in Mid against a Fizz, I have a better chance of losing, but I can still harass them down for a kill. Bot Lane is probably the most balanced because most ADC champs are "right click and win" types. More dependent on what kind of support you have than the ADC champ.

tl:dr just find ways to counter champs, cause 99% champs have a counter method.

edit: also, yes the pic is very accurate, I suggest you find good friends quickly because solo queue will cause stomach ulcers from rage. I play regularly with Karsuman, Craze, a few IRL friends, the rare good people that I find, and sometimes Chaos. I don't really play on my own for the reasons described by you.
