truth doesn't matter to these people. neither does moral clarity. they'll be promoting this game before the next expansion arrives. money and image are the only thing that matter to these people.
they just want us all to lose some of the excitement we'd otherwise have had so they can feel morally superior to you, me and everyone else. it's a PR stunt and unfortunately impacts people who are passionate about this game.
maybe it's blizzard's fault for giving these "influencers" so much power over their brand. i hope they reconsider things after this.
none of these moral authorities have shame or logical consistency. i hope people reading this in a week stop by their streams so they can see what i'm talking about when they're back promoting blizzard products.
Agreed. I'd respect these people more if they just straight quit Hearthstone just like they are so quick to destroy the careers of others for unsubstantiated allegations.
But they won't because Blizzard is a money source for them, and that shows how much moral clarity these imposters have.
The Dragonqueen nerf looks even more puzzling after seeing this. Blizzard please unnerf Dragonqueen -- it was a fun card, reasonably balanced and the nerf was unnecessary.
I think it's more the messenger that people are memeing. Please look into Blizzard's history to see if it has any morals and should be issuing press releases like these. The people at the top are terrible human beings that will destroy people for using platforms to stand up to oppression (see Blitzchung).
They need to stick to making cards and not selectively preening moral superiority. This press release just reminded me how disgusted I was with these people for banning that Hong Kong guy. I quit the game for a while because of it. May do so again, but I think the creative team has more of a moral compass so it's hard either way.
I'm sorry but Blizzard is so fake and the worst of the phony "woke" crowd. They have no morals or guiding principles as a company.
They criticize America for going through a healthy debate, and yet turn blind eye to Genocide and oppression in China as they make millions.
But they don't stop at silence and a blind eye in that communist nation, no, they ban people who are brave enough to express themselves against potentially losing their freedoms. But they didn't stop at banning players for speaking out, oh no, they made the man forfeit all his winnings and publicly humiliated him.
Shame on you Blizzard. You have no moral authority to preen and say you're for human rights with phony press releases like these. Stick to making new cards in Hearthstone and let people with actual moral compasses lead the way for human rights.
i don't get this meme. no video game is a charity event. give 'em props for the free adventure. they don't force you to buy the cosmetics but people who do buy it subsidize people who want to play the content for free.
zeph seems to get dumber every patch...don't disagree. he's super stingy with hexes against deathrattles for some reasons. loses me a lot of winnable games because of it.
