I’m usually the last person to defend Blizzard, but this game is as free as it gets, and still make money.
I haven’t paid cash to play in probably 11 out of 12+ years
People sue for everything always looking to make a quick buck out of blaming other for their own stupidity. Back in my day I spent tons of money on useless garbage as a kid and my parents didn’t go and sue people because I flushed my allowance down the toilet with my bad decisions. They instead used it as a lesson to try to teach me about how the real world works.
How could they fix the game suck when the reasons people say they hate Hearthstone is because it plays like a CCG? Tell me how do you take the CCG out of a CCG and still have it be a CCG?
Same reason everyone else is - to troll or just post their irrelevant opinions. C’mon, all you with your 100s of troll posts acting like you’re 100% contributing to the community without your own opinion adding to the poo-pile.
I think anyone here since release would agree that this game has dropped off considerably. Regardless, OP posted an opinion so they could add value to your lives by giving you something to type instead of doing nothing else useful.
PS: don’t forget to thank OP for giving you an opportunity to be you.
To make troll posts that stir the pot, apparently.
The ridiculous “net decking” comment aside, I agree with the idea that the game is an RNG mess.
It’s infuriating to have no idea what your opponent will play and then they come hit you with some crap from another class or even timeline. There is WAAAAAAY too much rng in the game right now and I find it unplayable because of it. Discover effects are supposed to add flavor the game, not be the whole game.
On top of how sloooooooow animations are for discover and how slooooooow players are at picking a card, you add in this whole rewind thing so we can sit through it all over again on the same turn! It’s terrible game play. Maybe it’s fun for the guy who didn’t like his RNG, but it just drags the game along.
And then dark gifts are on everything, adding stupid value to already discounted cards. I don’t know who thought that was good, but it’s not.
I was fine with imbue priest because it was terrible when it launched, but it started pushing every turn discover. Now we have imbue rogue, and I have finally found a deck that genuinely makes me not want to play the game at all. I didn’t log in for three day this week because I hate imbue rogue so much.
I honestly think at this point they should just have everyone play against AI and stop having it be pvp because they have no idea how to make a game that’s fun to play.
The same issue plagues all Blizzard titles actually.
Ive been playing blizzard games since WoW vanilla. I used to love hearthstone, I still do mostly. But you are right, no original new ideas, the rng in this game is a lazy mess that needs fixing. Whether you play Battleground to Ranked you are at the mercy of the AI and its bs. I am still trying to figure out how players can get a 3000 health dmg minion by turn 8, and not just one but a whole board. This is poor design and just straight up LAZY DEVS!!! Deathrattle this season is just pathetic, its deathrattle for this or that and constant reborn, health and dmg modifiers that are out of hand. The developers are just plain lazy or have no creative imagination at all, they def have gotten away from the WoW lore in Hearthstone.
Strong APM skills, a good opening and the spell Chanel the Devouer. A spell i wish they would remove. They removed it once last season and the game was better for it. Now pretty much any game i play with Dragons in it revolves around APM a couple moderate size minions then channel them onto the Stuntdrake and play some DR whelps.
Literally every game I played today on train to and from work was 100% decided by RNG, both wins and losses. Not a sjngle game involved any skill or strategy whatsoever. I or my oppenent just happened to draw exactly the card needed (in all but one game it was a 1/30 chance) at exactly the right moment to sway the game. Total dumpster fire. So much strategy.
Or, even if you know exactly what your opponent will play, call it exactly for 8 turns, and know exactly how to counter it many turns ahead, but don’t draw a single necessary card. So much strategy!
I quit in 2024. Why? Balance changes should be about keeping the game fun for everyone instead of being focused on the tryhards in Legend.
This has never been my experience. Seems like a deck building issue.
I’m talking about how you didn’t play around a rogue dropping blizzard for four mana and the like.
Anyway, this game sucks right now. It went way too far into discover and random card generation.
