Research Blog VI

Upon visiting the website www.leaugecraft.com  the initial feel of the site represents a knowledge base or information source.  The front page of the site really broadcasts this by having links to other parts of the site that contain the different type of information about the game.  These links include, recent patch information,  playable champions on rotation, game news links, masteries builder ( in game talents), recent skins, and 2 sections for recent guides.  Most of these topics on the front page have the most recent information pertaining to this topic just below the title of the topic.  The picture in the upper left corner is one of a armored hand pointing to the word Leaguecraft, with a black cauldron in the background containing a red mist.  The League Of Legend Logo is seen floating in the cauldron.  I think this gives us the image that this site is a melting pot of information from many different users about this game.

This page uses a lot of symbols and images right from the League Of Legends game itself.  This will defiantly catch the eye of players and makes the site feel authentic to people who know and play the game.  It is also litters with images of some of the most popular champions of the game.  The site does not have to much to grab the attention of people who stumble across the site or newcomers who have never heard of the game.  Most of the page displays information in a way that only players of the game would understand what it means and how it fits into the game.

  1. I found the website leaguecraft.com very interesting. This website seems to attract those that are really into playing games. I myself really enjoy playing XBOX 360. On the other hand I was a little confused about mauvering through this site. When I clicked on the XBOX360 at the bottom of the screen it took me to a lot of different links and I wasnt sure what to do next. But then I decided to investigate the website a little bit more and found something I really caught my eye. In the search bar you can type in a game and it gives you various sites that you are able to purchase the game on (i.e. amazon and ebay).
    When reading your post you said that I wouldnt understand unless I was a player of this game, and that is clearly true. I think the only thing that I found useful on this site was the links. I wasnt really sure how to play the game on this site that you mentioned in your blog.
