I know this post probably won’t accomplish anything and many of you probably won’t even listen or agree because half the people left on these forums are the people continuing to pay for such an atrocious game like Hearthstone in terms of design, broken features, and responses from the developers, but maybe there is a chance some of you can still be reached.
Just experienced a BGs game that has instantly made me quit playing BGs entirely when it was the last game mode that was still somewhat fun.
Playing Silas with the quest “add 2 random naga”.
Getting to the end of the game where i’m tavern 6, I have a tripled Oz discovering 2 naga every turn and rolling with gold and you know what I found? Not a single Tidemistress Athissa…not one after adding/discovering probably 30 different naga on top of rolling and getting a free discover every 3rd ticket with Silas.
Anyone who still claims the minion pool isn’t artificially manipulated so that 1 of the 5 tribes that aren’t banned is artificially lower than every other tribe probably still thinks Blizzard QA tests their expansions or updates before pushing them live.
The sheer statistical odds of not discovering or adding a single tidemisteress athissa when no other player in the lobby is using naga, in fact they top 4 were all running mechs (because the minion pool makes sense that way).
BGs is clearly manipulated to be nothing but a highroll where you hope the tribe you are going for is even represented in your lobby.
I will not be playing BGs anymore after that game and given the rest of the fraud blizzard has committed over the past several years with their expansions and bugs and other failures, I’m surprised anyone else is as well.
But then again, why would blizzard not continue to do it when so many people simply pay 100s of dollars a month for this type of low quality game all the while saying “it’s not that bad” this is why the gaming industry as a whole is no longer AAA developed games and everything is a broken, buggy mess, that is patched sometime in the future, if that even happens, all the while expecting you to pay 100s a month for it to never improve.
I remember back when you would get a game like Final Fantasy 7 for $50-60 and had years of gameplay with zero bugs or other issues, even something like halo before 343 ruined it.
now it’s pay us for the privilege of finding all our game breaking bugs so we don’t have to compensate you in any way. Anyone still buying packs or pre-orders or bundles probably would have bought a bridge that someone had to sell them.
