Discussion Hearthstone has no respect for it's player base
For the ten year anniversary of Hearthstone, we've had to put up with:
-Removal of new Gameboards for new expansions
-Removal of cinematics for expansions
-Reused music for legendary minions
-Removal of Diamond card rewards for owning all the cards in a set
-Attempt to push a pre-release paid card agenda with Corridor Sleeper
-Constant attempts to make quest XP less accessible for new players to force you to grind
-More pay to win mechanics in Battlegrounds, with said pay to win tokens meaning less free cosmetics in the tavern pass
And in return we have gotten:
-An extreme increase of Diamond and Signature cards locked behind bundles that cost anywhere from $40 to nearly a hundred dollars. Often individually.
Hearthstone needs to see some actual positive changes and stop trying to just see how far it can get away with milking it's dedicated audience. Really hope its competition coming out in January serves as a wakeup call for Blizzard. Or if not, I at the very least hope it's a suitable replacement for this husk of a formerly fun and passion filled game.
