So I guess I am salty about the salt :) But sometimes enough is enough. Players I am playing against are salty, people keep posting salty threads on hearthpwn and all are using the same phrases over and over again.
1. Hearthstone is JUST A GAME for free time. It is not a long-life career, the gold is not a real gold, the cards are not real cards and making it to legend won't turn you to a real-life hero. It is just a game for fun.
2. If you are not having fun, just stop playing. Over the years you encounter many games. Some you like, some you don't. If you don't, you stop playing. Why write about it in fan website, trying to bring others down or trying to find comfort that you are not the only one?
3. Hearthstone is not a perfect game. We all know that, but I have never seen a game were the game developers are so interactive with the players. Actually, this game is the first time I have seen a player based called a community! I think it is awesome.
4. Like every game, it is not easy to make it to the top. Every game has easy levels and hard levels. I do expect it to be hard to make it to the top.
5. If you want to play your own thing, JUST DO IT, and try to make it work so you can also win. I play wild now and see tons of ideas and twists on different deck. If you lose, so what, at least you had fun.
I have ore to say about it, but I think the point is clear by now. Enjoy the weekend and see you on ladder.
Hearthstone is one perfect game for a love-hate-relationship. People claim, Gwent and TES: Legends etc. are actually better, but they still return to HS regularly (while they lack quite a lot to be actual contenders as of now).
I'm glad to see so much positivity, but it's not that easy to just "quit," s lot of us have invested a LOT of hours and money into this game. The whining as a whole seems abrasive and consuming because nobody logs on and starts a thread saying "I just had the best game of my life, two homebrewed control decks slugging it out until fatigue."
So yeah, people complain a lot, but there's nothing wrong with asking for quality and balanced product for what a lot of us spend a good chunk of our free time doing for fun.
Idk but I am over it. From the guy making the mile long thread about how Blizzard should fire team 5 (don't worry though because he really loves Hearthstone Kappa) to another thread bitching about how Blizzard needs to assign Rafaam a class. It is unbearable how childish people are. You know what I do when I am annoyed with Hearthstone? I turn it off. If I never turn it back on, well that is just fine, but I do because I like Hearthstone. If you guys don't, quit turning it back on. K thnx

You don't have to quit forever. You quit until it sounds like fun again. Idk why that is so hard. If this expansion is the worst ever, come back next expansion. Get your fix from watching streamers. Idk why that path is so hard. It affects the number of players Blizz has logging in and if that drops they will find the problem.
Blizz looks at the numbers, not the random complaint threads. Only other players like us see that shit and it's obnoxious.

Seems like the same problem with World of Warcraft. It was pretty easy to just quit playing though. With Hearthstone it's no different. If you decide that your time spent playing the game is worth more than you are putting in, you will quit. Hearthstone is a quality game, that is why you put money into it. Blizzard has many quality games and they are all fun to play. If money was really the issue, you could go play HOTS or Overwatch. Those games don't require any expansion fees, and you can put them down for a while then pick them up again.
There are a lot of players who have spent hundreds of dollars on content, only to find that the developers have moved the game in the wrong direction making it no longer fun. To just stop playing means a complete loss of that investment towards the promise of many more years of fun.
Therefore salt.

Exactly, and if you come back to it, than you must find in it something you don't in the others, so highlight those things once in a while.

Thanks for your nice comment and the compliment :) But, why not start a thread like that? Why not say something about a player who used a card you did not expect or a game you won against all odds?
There is only one positive ongoing thread on Hearthpen (the pepper thread). One!
Dude as much as I love this game it definitely sucks ass to spend time and money on a game where 4/5 games are against jade druid. It's bullshit truly and whenever it rotates it's just going to plague wild. Is it unable no ,but it's annoying to literally just watch the same shit happen over and over. On top of that , I had a jade player rope me every turn for no reason. There is a reason for salt.
I know there is a reason for the salt, and I got salty just last night, but it seems like the dominant atmosphere within the HS community, which is a shame, for no one likes to hang out with a branch of people who act like grumpy old men :)
Hearthstone was a great concept and can be a good game at times. People, players, consumers, the community or whatever you'd like to call them hate to lose, whether it be in game or at the point of sale. The environment created by Hearthstone is centered around a 50% lose mechanic, so basically, half your time playing you are losing in a game through no fault other than a forced game equation. Most of the community, believe it or not, handles this very well, so well, that they are willing to spend hundreds of dollars a year to play a "F2P" game to basically lose 50% of the time. When you create this type of gaming environment, development teams need to be careful when proceeding forward with changes or when introducing new content as consumers are already tilted by the game mechanics. It's the price Blizzard must pay for making hundreds of millions of dollars from consumers on such a delicate and volatile relationship. People hate to lose but what they hate to lose the most is money. Most of the community favors expansions and changes but when applied haphazardly or with the intention of producing more profits at the expense of a decent gaming experience you are going to get backlash, whether it be in this game or any other game. Consumer satisfaction is and should be a priority for companies and the reasons are self-evident. What we have here with Hearthstone, in my opinion, is as very inexperienced team in this area. We basically have fans of the game managing content and mechanics of a very lucrative business and their naivety constantly shows. And guess what? They're going to be called out on it whether they or you like or not. "It's not personal, its business."
1. Because Hearthstone is mostly meant to appeal to casuals, which is why the skill ceiling isn't high
2. Because Blizzard keeps introducing cancerous concepts such as jade, freeze and so forth
3. Because a lot of the best decks are incredibly straightforward (pirate warrior, jade druid, aggro druid). This intertwines with 1,
4. Because the core of a lot of classes is shitty. Mages with their freezes and throwing burn spells at face, priests with their removal and stealing shit, rogue with the unbalanced shit edwin vancleef, druid with ramp (thankfully innervate is gone) etc.
And the reason I do keep playing is because every now and then I have a fun, skill-based game, I'm addicted and Hearthstone is great to play while also doing something else
Why write about it in fan website, trying to bring others down or trying to find comfort that you are not the only one?
To an extent, these people are trying to give feedback and let the devs know of their displeasure of certain cards or mechanics so that hopefully they will be changed
I have never seen a game were the game developers are so interactive with the players. Actually, this game is the first time I have seen a player based called a community! I think it is awesome.
Completely untrue. I actually think the devs interact with their playerbase the least out of all the major digital card games. It's gotten much better this past month but I think it's largely because it was suicidal PR-wise to ignore the massive jade druid outcry
What does my choice of decks have to do with the matter? If anything, your stereotypical "jade druid cancer player" would be happy with the state of the game right now and try to shut down salty posts because they'll lead to druid nerfs

I am salty because i just pulled my first golden legendary. It was Nat Pagle.

Because the community is toxic. It's really that simple.

I seriously don't get it.... if you don't like the salt don't come here.....
Play the game and don't accept friend requests. Go to fireside meet nice people and be friends with them in game and keep it nice!
#easy
...The problem is not the problem, the problem is your attitude to the problem.
It is much easier to post salty messages than actual learn how to be good in the game.
Why? Because this game is the most unbalanced cancerous game there is. If the developers had 1 braincell they would redesign this whole shit concept.
