And? Let the naysayers be naysayers. Don’t they realize not saying anything ALSO leads to people being unfair toward them? Perhaps even moreso?
Because now we need to be even more paranoid because it looks like they’re hiding something.
Look at the OverWatch forum they are just whine thread to nerf X or Y hero. It’s just about 90% of the forum, dev go to announce sometimes for rework or a new hero hint. But they don’t do it for a year now and I understand them, the forum is full trash.

They just need to keep us in check in time so The Game is released so when we find out The Game actually is just a reskin we cannot refund anymore.
Now they only Thinking about “we need to finish as soon as possibile” they don’t even bother to confirme “hey we can make something after The release”
I buy The Game and stay confident in a miracle. But a part of me is here just to warch The ship sincking.
If you think these models look like WoW you really don’t have the necessary equipment to be taken seriously on art critique.(Mainly: working eyesight.)
But talk is cheap, here are the comparisons:

There are plenty of youtube video comparisons you can watch to see the rest.
Reforged models don’t look ANYTHING like WoW.
They all take heavy inspiration from the original concept art and models.
WoW itself is more colourful, more “cartoony”, and with simpler shapes.
Some models have been wowified to an extent, elemental and voidwalkers come to mind, not a fan of those redesigns. Some of the orc models have also been given that oversaturated WoW look with more cartoony features.(Trolls for instance)
Say what you want about the saturation and colour palette, but it’s WoW that has the bright vibrant colours, not reforged. (And imo, the worst models in reforged are those that are overly saturated and the best looking ones aren’t. Example: Rifleman > Voidwalker)
There is a 0% chance that WoW models were recycled for this game
They usually communicate through community managers and properly vetted PR/marketting avenues. And if you remember, 800 of those positions were cut this year.
So what is more likely is that Blizzard wants games and product out asap and communication is not a high priority for them. It sucks for the rest of us, but I figure that the forums are a very tiny vocal minority and the majority of sales are coming from players who aren’t using these forums, they can find other methods of getting feedback like directly talking to pros or streamers who can give more direct feedback.
Cuz yes, some people saying ‘DH SuCKS’ as feedback is not helping this forums credibility for providing constructive feedback to reply to. But its clear they say they do read reddit and the forums, even if they don’t reply. So I say provide constructive criticism, but don’t expect replies. This is sort of a ‘Santa please’ system we are working with here.
