Activision’s Hearthstone

The game used to be more strategic and creative, mostly about tempo and minion trading.

Now decks are made rather than cards, and it’s just about throwing dice at eachother until someone lands their big combo and wins the game from an OTK, huge burst, infinite play, lucky RNG… until the next better deck lands. This is now completely Activision’s game and no longer Blizzard’s.

RIP Blizzard’s Hearthstone, I loved you :cry:

Yeah, I’ve been thinking the MS acquisition may be a very good thing for Hearthstone as Microsoft isn’t as profit-oriented with their gaming division and are more concerned with building their platform/userbase… who knows though.
