He sounds a lot like The Rock, hmmm I wonder?
I like the tavern (and bob) itās a great I wish theyād take what they did with this adventure and redo the older adventures with these mechanics.
Itās one of the more clever additions to the game in a while.
I feel like Bartender Bob encounters are very relaxing in general.
I also enjoyed the puzzle of discovering the optimal solution to a game state- again while not as amped up as I can get when Iām worried about a run! (i.e. drafts not going great, was surprised/scared by a previous boss and barely got out of it). It was additional content that was more āchillā and so it didnāt feel as unforgivable as every single Boss fight turn can feel after the first couple easy bosses.
So Hell Yes, two thumbs up to the Developer who whipped up Bartender Bob and these friendly encountersā¦ and to the WHOLE TEAM for a wonderful job on this amazing Adventure Pack. Iām really quite happy as a fan right now. :-)
Iām having the feeling Bobās trolling me lately. He keeps pulling out some of my best minions so I canāt afford to kick something out, and on his side he keeps putting down 1 great minion with 3 terrible ones so I canāt afford to take them.
P.S. is he related to Nurse Joy or Agent Jenny? Despite visiting so many different taverns itās always Bob.
We love Bob!! Bob is a great new addition to singleplayer. But for next expansion weāll need something new. We love new interactions!
You donāt have to go homeā¦but you canāt stay here.
Iād actually like to see Bartender Bob as a neutral card of some sort.
I was disappointed by Bob. He is super plain and doesnāt look like he belongs in the Warcraft universe at all
Simplicity brings an air of comfort to many, and I donāt see how he doesnāt fit considering Azeroth is a large place of many walks of life and species.
He doesnāt fit because he looks/talks like someone from a major city in North America current year.
Is it unreasonable for someone to have such an Accent in all of Azeroth?
My point here is that, in a world of Fantasy, everything is possible.
I would have preferred something more fantastical/outlandish. I swear Bartender Bob is the guy that works at the coffee shop in the lobby where I work.
And I have to disagree that āeverything is possibleā. A story sets the parameters of its world, and must play within those guidelines.
While Bartender Bob is certainly believable, and would fit, my whole point was that it was a very mundane choiceā¦ one that mimics a lot of the other bosses who are very ā2019āā¦ Like the secretary, the banker. Why did they pick such boring personalities that youād see at work? Why no murloc, tauren, or a mage of some sortā¦ it is dalaran after all.
If they told me ācome up with a tavern keeper that youād find in Dalaranā, Bob is the last thing Iād come up with. Even if they thought of him ironically, the idea should have been scrapped.
Iām arguing that the fact that he is mundane, and looks like some average joe barista youād meet working at Starbucks is exactly the reason why heās so comforting and welcoming. He give me and others a sense of belonging and mutual respect. I believe thatās what they were going for and they hit the nail on the head.
Belonging and mutual respect? Sure. Glad you enjoy it.
Have you visited the taverns in Dalaran in World of Warcraft? It IS a town of Men first and foremost.
Nown when we arrive in the Underbelly, I will be unsurprised if āBobā turns into a Goblin.
love this thread
Bob, thanks for being awesome!
bob freaks me out whenever tavern pops up, heās voice is not acted, his picture doesnāt look cartoonish at all like the rest of game, is he a dev or some close friend of blizzard staff. It really looks out of place in the game.
Donāt look too deep into it, or youāll start asking yourself questions. Bob is a really heartwarming and welcoming guy, but based off of the voicelines of all the bosses when you enter, this is clearly a tavern where only the most vile characters of Azeroth relax and rest. Itās quite oddā¦
Thats hy adventures used to give unic cards[quote=āCoolbreeze-11835, post:6, topic:5753, full:trueā]
To help keep the game fresh. If everything came out at once, weād get bored by this point and complain in two monthās time about how stale the game is. This came out right at the perfect time, as right about now people would be dropping off if they didnāt like the current meta/arenāt interested in arena.

I never get the minion/spell on my side that I would like to remove from the deck - except when the only removal option is to remove all 4 cards, and the other 3 are all ones I need to keep.
But yes, the chance to tweak your deck a little more was very well thought out.
