Blog posts, anything, I’m not sure why they stopped. It would IMO be more helpful if they prominently pinned such news to the front page of the forums, so posters don’t miss them.
‘Nothing's happening with this game!’
‘Seriously though, when's the winter chests going to go?’
‘A request for developers to unlock Dark Nexus skins’
All of that above is in top posts. I’m not a pessimistic person by nature, but I understand why many are feeling so about HOTS. News delivered by a Bot, would be far better than radio silence and maybe assuage the worst fears of loyal HOTS fans.
