Never understand DI Team's mindset when it comes to limited time event

First of all, they designed something that can only be used for 30 days and then disappear forever. They don’t even want to monetize it.

The Hearthstone event’s limited-time avatar:

Secondly, did they just sell a bundle that contains a limited-time Hearthstone card? :astonished:

I mean, it wouldn’t be a problem or issue if Hearthstone cards are permanent additions to the game…but I was under the impression that all the cards will be gone after the event is over.

But seriously, why would they put so much effort into creating a limited event and gameplay when these modes can be a permanent mode in the game? :thinking:

Also, are we going to get a new dungeon or hidden lairs for World’s Crown zone? I think these resources that were spent on making the limited time event could be used to make a new dungeon or a new game mode.

Time limited events put a limit on when you can do something thereby ensuring you will be logged in and playing at that time, and hopefully spending money on orbs etc.
You COULD argue it keeps it fresh. but the cynic in me just see’s the $$ in the decision.

I feel it’s all about the quick $$ now not down the road. I really get the feeling that they see the end and are just squeezing every little bit rather than trying to improve the game to last longer.
