- Welcome to my first YT video! After being at Riot Games (developer of League of Legends, Valorant, Arcane + more) for 2.5 years, it was time I said goodbye ... well, at least for now 👀. Come along with me for my last day at the campus headquarters.
🌺 ABOUT ME
Hi there! My name is Morgan and I'm a game developer (previously Riot Games and currently @ Amazon Games) based in LA! Some of the games I've worked on include Ruined King, Hextech Mayhem, and Convrgence. Thanks for stopping by and hope you enjoy :)

I remember watching this video last year dreaming about working at Riot. I was still trying to break into the games industry and I had no games of experience. Last November I got my first games job as a Level Designer and while I'm not at Riot yet, I'm working closer to realizing that dream. Videos like these help remind me why I want to work here in the first place. Games like LoL and Valorant have given me some of my favorite gaming memories and working with like-minded people would make me feel at home. Thanks for making this video and I hope wherever you're working now is treating you well!
Wherever you work you can find joy and like minded people to connect with. I understand it’s your dream but remember that even the most qualified people may not get hired in certain places due to sheer luck. It’s good to dream and try to apply but don’t make it your last resort. Afterall, happiness comes from within not from a video game company office. I’m saying this out of love ❤️ Stay safe and keep doing what you love.
@@sara6969 Thank you! You're definitely speaking facts. I appreciate your kind words and wish you the best as well!
Morgan, I saw how you look at the end of the video after you finish the exit interview. Change is very scary and you never know if it's the right choice. At least you had a choice. I am cheering for you. Thank you for sharing
I love watching these types of videos. I am currently 17 years old studying Games Design at college and would really love to become a games developer like you someday! it would be a dream to work at huge companies like Riot Games someday. I hope one day I achieve my dreams and make it there like you! 😊
This made me smile 😊 hope to see you in the industry someday!
underrated channel, hope we get to see more videos from you soon!
Thank you for this contribution to the game. If I play that game so much, it's because of passionate and talented people like you !
Would love to integrate their machine learning team !

Aww I'm glad that you enjoyed my vlog! For sure I'll be making more its fun to do haha
Loved the video! Hoping to get an internship with riot games so it's nice to see a bit of what the company is like.
Love watching your video I don’t know why
I love you Morgan!!!!!
❤️❤️❤️
I enjoy your facial expressions the most they're very accentuated
I'm gonna need an explanation on that boba in a glass cup technique you had going on there
LOL I was drinking water from the glass cup and we decided to walk outside and the boba truck is super close to us so decided to get the boba but to be efficient and not hold a cup in each hand I stacked them 😹
you guys had a pc 방?? omg dream job
Sheesh girly that edit at 0:16
Bro I’m glad u noticed my effort
Hey whats the music called? Or the type of music. I really like it
did that sign have 'riot games' on one side and 'rito games' on the other? thats so good lmao
Ahaha yeah riot really embraced the rito memes 😹
A bunch of people with really cool hair dye!
I admit you because this is my dream riot games company i from myanmar my country is now political situation is not good our youths dream are lost😢
Why is your boba in a separate cup? I must know
Hehehehehehee good question. I was drinking that cup of water and brought it outside then decided to get boba and that cup is meant to be washed so just stacked them to make it easy to carry
Wow riot campus looks real nice
It’s super nice! Which is why so many people stay late everyday haha
wait why did she leave riot
Must’ve been hard to leave.. they gave you the opportunity to get into game development without experience in coding. Maybe Amazon has better opportunities for you like you said 😎 but they understand. That’s the next video to watch!
Amazon does have good benefits but they overwork their employees though would have honestly stayed at Riot If I was her
Awesome sauce! Wanna play sometime?
When I get back to streaming I’d be down, I usually play with viewers! 😄
Maybe this is why my quality of games drop down hill.
Didn't you know vegetarian/vegan, are you?
game dev diaries? or revenue strategy manager diaries?
You must be proud to be out of that cave of apes. I've never seen a video of yours, but this isn't meant to be against you. I've been removing videos related to that company for months and the name keeps popping up. If it was just about you and whatever I wouldn't be bothering with a comment unless it was positive. I've only ever spoken against companies that actively ignore their customers (players in this case). When tencent bought most of the shares for thsi company, things went south. Some of which were for legal reasons (tribunal). The implementation of TFT felt like the company admitted that LoL was a shitshow solely because you guys couldn't (I'm assuming) change the matchmaking system despite -->taking my advice and doing exactly what I suggested with VERY Shy numbers instead of those I proposed. Thus making me simply say: "Yea I'm done they're morons and that boat must sink". I'm glad you left this place. The extremely sad part about the utter lack of perspective of Riot is that the Only reward system is not only RNG but it prompts children to be more compulsive and gamble $$ on these rewards. This company was doomed the moment tencent bought 70% of its shares just to emerge in the US market for a piece of the mobile gaming payout. That company is Evil (literally). Not a fan of youtube either... doesn't defend it's creators/users. I would expand on that, but... that's enough "negativity"... the truth is a double edged sword when you're talking to people from this era (not you... just in general). Take care... hopefully the next chapter has a lot more potential than this for you. GL!
damn, here I was thinking you were condemning riot because of the SA lawsuit and allegations... turns out you're just a malding gamer lmao.
@@johnzii1442 same the first sentences made me think of it
@@johnzii1442 LOL so true. I was so weirded out while reading their comment. 🤣
haha no talent
Any one who works in riot games please contact me urgently
One of my cousin does, he’s only been in company for a year

Loved the video! Hoping to get an internship with riot games so it's nice to see a bit of what the company is like.
