TIME FOR A VIDEOGAME: LEAGUE OF LEGENDS

 

I have a great videogame to recommend to you today, one of my best favourites at present. Have you heard of League of Legends? It is one of the most popular competitive game in the world, commonly abbreviated LoL, and it is a multiplayer online battle arena video game developed by Riot Games. It has earned praise for its accessibility, character design, and production value. LoL is often cited as the world's largest esport, with an international competitive scene. The 2019 League of Legends World Championship had over 100 million unique viewers, with a minimum prize pool of US$2.5 million.

HOW ABOUT SOME VIDEO GAMES?

Nowadays video games are really popular and most teens play them all over the world.

In the past games were considered stupid, especially by adults, and even now there are people that consider games to be a waste of time or even a way for teens to become violent (you'll understand why later on).

Fortunately,  there are many open-minded people and they see games as something more than a way to have fun:  they are able to express emotions, art, philosophy and more. They are generally a great way to tell a story as well.

Today  we  - Denis and Simone -  are going to talk about some of our favorite games and why we like them so much.

Before we start, we’d like to say that Denis is going to talk about entertaining games while Simone is going to talk about games that have a great story and deep meanings.
