Hearthpwn

I agree that the cost of Hearthstone is indefensible and many people irrationally defend HS because of a sort of loyalty. That said, people who spend less than 10$ on a new expansion release contribute nothing to game development and shouldn't be taken seriously.

Most people defending blizzard only talk about the most insane demands like removing demon hunter, giving away half the cards for free etc. I know this is kind of doing the same strawman argumentation, but are there anyone who confidently argue for anything other than "It's not THAT bad"? Whether or not the new tavern pass system is better or worse than the old one is not worth discussing. The game is getting more expensive with the new mini sets, so we need to earn SIGNIFICANTLY more than before to make the game more affordable. 

If we can't get all the cards from an expansion within 4 months of release without paying 100$ or more, then the new system is a failure, and the game continues to be extremely expensive.

 I dont get why people want ALL the cards. Is it not enough to have 2 or 3 good decks as a f2p player?

The last thread written by a mod with a similar title was way too nice and played devils advocate too much for it to be effective in getting the message across.

I am not now nor have I ever been affiliated in any paid capacity by blizzard as an employee, shill, or stooge nor am I a drone who believes they do no evil (their balance and playtesting is horrible) but I can categorically say that the hearthstone community is one of the most ungrateful and idiotically naive I have had the displeasure of being associated with and I'm including all the blatantly pandering content creators who have lambasted the system to gain favour with the seething masses and benefit from the mob mentality.

The fact of the matter is if you are a f2p player who spends very little time playing hearthstone then you are not a priority for Blizzard and they will never care about you and nor should they and to complain about a product that costs you nothing and is something you don't even give a decent amount of your time too is a shitty thing to do.

You are the kind of asshole who comes into a cafe orders the cheapest possible drink only because you have too and then proceeds to bitch and moan when they change the chairs they use or the decor they had.  I don't understand your mentality you don't play the game except to do daily quests you don't spend money on the game, so your not contributing capital as a resource for future development and you barely contribute in any real way to community stats for amazing community tools like meta statistics nor do you contribute ideas or innovation in deck building, in fact, reviewing most f2p strategies (brain dead face decks aka finger swipe simulators) you detract from the player experience of those players blizzard does consider a priority the people who contribute to their game like people who pay money and people who pay with their time and effort

You have the gall to complain about a system that now rewards people who play the game more and those who spend money all the while contributing nothing more than a useless player statistic, get over yourself say thank you for the fact they develop new expansions and for the love of god either get a job or become a core player that at least contributes usable player based information by playing longer and enjoying the game rather than treating it like a god damn job.

I used to be a whale but now I will buy one pre-purchase pack every other expansion and play only at the weekends when I'm not working so I myself contribute very little to blizzard and will never expect them to pander to me or my meagre impact on the game because quite frankly from a business perspective I'm not worth their time or effort.  To those of you who do support Hearthstone in major ways either with a considerable amount of time allowing blizzard to create usable reports and stats for future expansion development or with a consistent income, I thank you and truly appreciate that you keep the game I love/loved (balance really needs a look) going.

TLDR - You deserve nothing because you contribute nothing

 

 

 

 

 

 U do realise that w/o f2p guys game would die faster than Artifact ? 
And u too are a sheep for not realising that everyone getts less now.

 Various people did the math and obviously almost everyone gets more except hardcore players who got the 100g for 30 wins every day in the old system. So you are actually the sheep for not realising the new system benefits almost every player.

It is funny how there is not one single reply that has anything to do with the thread

Trolling or just being stupid?

Quote from Hedwyn_nl >>

Im salty because I want to have fun with all these incredible new cards, playing my damn control dragon decks

BUT I CAN'T

BECAUSE OF THE FUCKING CANCER AGGROS AND BRAINLESS COMBOS.

 Control is supposed to beat aggro so you are doing it wrong 

Quote from Twitchy >>

Sooo many awesome cards, but a few are so op that everyone plays the same deck. 

Exact same story every expansion for over 5 years straight now. Is playtesting truly that much more difficult than we can see as a community? 

Why do so many people seem to think that Galakrond Shaman has like a winrate of almost 100 percent and a playrate of 50 percent? The winrate is 60 percent and the playrate is around 8 percent according to hsreplay

It doesnt even need dragons, it is good by itself 

dude stats dont lie you can not disagree with them 

Quote from Lycaon55 >>

I think it will more of the same...just few cards will actually be used and the rest will be crap. The new expansion will not change what the meta is now.....dominance of a few classes and you will meet over and over again the same decks after the meta settles...It's been like this for some time now and we still play the game right? Like I said nothing new..

 I mean, how is a game like Hearthstone supposed to work differently? There is always a meta and the intention is not to have all 135 cards played.
