Yeah barrier meta is fun and balanced 
But making it more of a point than the balance of your game is. Itâs being carried by an audience that thrives on the pandering more than actually wants to play a game.

Remember folks, his original argument was a haircut made the game a shill for the SJWs.

Now weâre talking.
Can Blizz just modernize and implement sliders. Especially chest/glutes sliders
Worse! I donât know what they are. Maybe all of leftwing American 20s-30s.
A majority of the country in the 20 to 30 year old bracket is bad?
This is a business that tilts toward that age demographic. If they pander at all, itâs probably fiscally responsible.
Remember guys, Iâm a shill and will attack OP with illogical comments.
I gave you 3 examples which are guidelines for recognizing other examples without bloating my OP into a wall of text.
Mei is the most annoying character Iâve ever seen in any game ever
Sheâs like over watches demon hunter
I remember they banned for her a week from competitive and everyone cheered and Iâm pretty sure some people cried of happiness
Looks like Iâm never playing hots ever again
By the way she has the smallest head hit box in game and has one of the smallest character models
Fiscally responsible
False. As you can see, HotS is dying or dead already.
I get it man, I really do. But I have a balanced opinion on it, I think.
I play a lot of pnp rpgs, so this is the way I see it:
DM homebrews a world and story, he puts a lot of thought and passion into it. It has limits, politics, high concepts etc. He creates hooks for players and curtails some crazy player wants. Itâs the DMâs passion project and has a lot of internal consistencies.
Over time, however, with enough player begging and growth, he relents on a few player wants, and they stack up over time.
Until eventually, the new additions and changes overtake the original, itâs not even the same guy running it anymore. Now thereâs fox people, spaceships, and other things that seemed entirely out of place of the original concept. But it can still be a fun distraction despite how silly itâs become.
Thatâs whatâs happened to warcraft. What once was a well thought out limited fantasy world with so much potential has become the world of warcraft we have today. Very little resembles the original, but it can still be fun and even cool at times.
Basically the original Warcraft games were a well written fantasy novel. Over time itâs become an amusement park and playground loosely based on the orignal.
This game is not warcraft. Itâs world of warcraft. Thereâs a difference. And thatâs ok. The original works still exist and can be played through. That can never be taken from you. But you can still find distraction in the silly world that shares little resemblance to the original, because despite it bearing little resemblance to the orignal, it can still be fun.

The reason HoTS failed was because blizzard was trying to force it to be a competitive MLG game, which it was at best a casual MOBA.
They are doing the same thing to Overwatch, if anything i would say overwatch is at more risk to failing due to the same issues as HotS.

I would guess HoTs wasnât supposed to be successful by commercial measures. It was supposed to peel off some of the immigration to LoL. By doing that, it was successful for the overall Blizz plan.
I doubt sheâll be as bad as release genji, maiev or tracer, but iâll probably skip actually playing her. Iâm personally more excited for the Nexomania 2 skins.
Li Li finally got a decent skin 
Thatâs only indicative of other faults not listed which Iâm trying to list.
Esports can emerge on their own, but if theyâre given a platform to appear successful before the market has made it so, itâs indicative of short term gain decisions which means a lot of bait to capture a specific market. Analyze the content, and you see it targets certain people. If thatâs the bait market, and they believe certain politics as pandered, itâs indicative of who is running the game to identify that and support it in the first place.
Itâs a systemic problem at Blizzard and is seeping into WoW.
I donât care I hate mei with every part of me
I played hots to get away from stupid meis
And those heroes werenât even OP on release, if you wanted OP on release you should have gone for Zarya and if you really wanted an OP hero on release go for Li Ming

I donât understand this outlook on things at all.
Everything people do now has to be somehow associated to political views and labels. Itâs insanity, much like this thread.
They should pander to real Americans because theyâll be the only ones voting soon enough 
Youâre not supposed to. This guy has lost it.

Yet youâre here trying to understand it. Perhaps itâs too highbrow for you. Iâve stuck around to try to help, but time is running short.
Okay you seriously need to stop editing peopleâs quotes, it makes you look disingenuous as all heck and just makes your responses to it look silly since your not responding to real quotes.
And you also need to include peopleâs name in there. I no longer believe you left them out accidentally. 
Also, good job ignoring my post where i asked you to explain what point i missed here. 
If it was dead, it wouldnât be getting the updates it is. The updates arenât as often, and generally the updates are smaller - but itâs certainly something.
It still has a relatively decent community. just not a super active comp scene.
