cause you're a fucking faggot

'cause its a bad game
'cause they don't care
'cause i don't play hearthstone

Why would you still play hurtstone?

Ok I lied sometimes people do reply to my HS threads

Pokelt is so good holy fuck.

Any game designers wanna chime in on why power creep is necessary? Why not not have power creep?

I wouldn't be surprised if they scrap Battlegrounds quietly at some point because you don't need to spend money to play it

if your new stuff is weaker than your old stuff then no one will buy your new stuff

Because powercreep is what gets people excited into buying the new cards. It's basically encouraging p2w.

People want to buy new cards because they can potentially create new decks. In order for those new decks to be worth it, people want them to be stronger than what is currently being played, because otherwise why play it compared to the old decks if they can do the same thing?

Plus, people are less excited by stuff that used to be super flashy because they're desensitized to it. Before getting a 7/7 for 4 mana was a huge deal, but then everyone got sick of it after everyone played it a lot. Now if the card designers want to evoke a similar reaction of "Big card for little mana" they need to make it even more impressive, hence powercreep.

Also yes, it's bad game design, but it's good design for milking whales and cash cows.

are other card games allowed?
artifact is fun

it is but I can't help but wonder what Valve's train of thought was with making it and Underlords
>People who play DotA will play ONLY DotA
>What if we made DotA spinoffs that they wont play

Game has been shit for years user....

Have they fixed it yet? The only good thing I could say about it was that I got my money back since I pulled Axe and Drow.

it's still in a 2.0 "beta"

A shame then. For all the polish and character the actual gameplay sucked ass.

It's not a bad concept, it's just too bad Valve employees just work on whatever they feel like so 99% of them are working on CS:GO and DotA, and the 1 other guy just keeps making PASS Time updates in TF2 for god knows what reason

Can you have your Heroes attack the mob you want? I don't care if the minions have Hearthstone Chess random attack patterns or even the three boards, not choosing where your heroes attacks feels really shitty to play.

by default everything attacks forward now, with cards that can modify to target adjacent things

Thank fuck.

Hearthstone is dying and virtually every site with a community is shitting on the new reward system and losing interest in the game. The general on /vg/ is deader than ever.

I got into the new beta ages ago but the placeholder art on the cards takes me out of it if they get some real fucking art I'd actually give it a real shot

I'd imagine Acti's pulling a HotS on it, they'd rather just liquidate the assets and grind the game down to bi-yearly updates. Killing the playerbase to cut down on network costs and such.

I still find the game fun to play every now and then, or maybe I'm just addicted who knows.
I'm curious to see if this god forsaken company will do something to calm the outrage or just completely ignore it and move on

Besides the 'it gets people to buy it' thing, when a game is new even the developers are 100% sure what will be good in the meta. When developers add stuff to a game however, the meta will have been established and thus they have an idea of what will be good and what will not be good as they add stuff.

are people still chimping about the new reward track or can places like reddit actually make posts about the new set yet?

beyond what others have said regarding needing new flashy shit to keep excitement going, card games will have powercreep as new sets come even if all cards follow a theoretically perfectly flat power curve due to the fact that decks will get access to more and more specific tools that synergise better.

Rotation alleviates this to an extent

I thought the math worked in the players favor and working toward that level 25 legendary is nice I guess. Though the old system was really straight forward and seemed good imo. Hearthstone is too solid of an ECG that started on the ground floor to die any time soon, surely.

Leddit got overrun by LoR shills who are pouring on gasoline, even though LoR's a fucking joke.

Nah the math is shit made by shills and doesn't include the free legendary you used to get with each expansion, the play x games for packs quests at the start of each expansion, the free classic pack you used to get from brawl that got removed, the fact that they disabled quest completion in other game modes, and the fact that a lot of the rewards are strictly worse than the gold amount because a pack from a set that came out 9 months ago isn't worth full gold cost.

Do they even still make content for it? I haven't heard anyone talk about it for years.

>the free classic pack you used to get from brawl that got removed
What? That didn't get removed.

The reward system benefits you if you play a lot of hours across all game modes. You get XP for completing quests in various modes and there are people that take their time playing games and even afking in battlegrounds.

Only losers play standard

>when the reboot is even worse than the original

Fuck demon hunters

>nerf a dozen dh cards
>give them a dozen broken cards
The devs have learned nothing.

No you fucking dumbass. The new rewards track only benefits you in any, shape or form if you pay 20 bucks to get the experience boost. You pay 20 dollars to get parity with what you used to get for free 24/7 and then they give you some retarded gifs.

I unironically uninstalled today

Because it's so bad that not even Blizzdrones are willing to defend it.

so what exactly are you supposed to do for gold now? all I see from doing quests are these shitty scrolls

What the fuck are you talking about? The pass is a whole separate scam. The entire discussion is about the reward system without it. All the pass does is level you up faster and give you cosmetics.

Scrolls are EXP for the pass system
When you level up you get rewards including packs and gold, but mostly Gold.
The old to new exchange between quests and gold isn't great though.

I play tons of Dota and used to play Hearthstone too until it became so expensive/hard to keep up with new decks. I would have tried artifact if it wasn't buy to play and if it didn't look so stupid with 3 boards to play cards on.

>What the fuck are you talking about? The pass is a whole separate scam. The entire discussion is about the reward system without it. All the pass does is level you up faster and give you cosmetics
They're interconnected you vapid scum sucking mutant. The reason that gold is so slow to begin with is that they want you to buy the pass. The rewards track is balanced to force you pay 20 bucks for a bunch of "benefits" you essentially already had minus some stupid avatars. The rug that was pulled out from under you morons isn't that they cut gold intake it's that the gold is the same but you're paying 20 dollars for it if you actually want that gold intake to stay roughly the same. It's called a bait and switch.
