Its sad that more and more players are turning away. I would probably stay on just to see how much gold I would end up at the end of the expansion before I start making any decisions.

I have absolutely no doubt I would not save up the same 8k gold by April 2021, what with this system as …

The entire letter from Ben might as well be shorted to: "We're going to change the last 6 packs to 1350 gold. Happy? Now can we please put all the torches and pitchforks down."

The lack of communication was obvious. It took all the way to start of Darkmoon to even so much acknowledge it. This is a good …

Quote From Pezman

Does anyone know what these "Achievement Points" are good for? At first I thought I was getting XP for these, but then I noticed it was a separate thing.

You get xp for grinding the darkmoon achievements.

For the rest it goes to funding for an ever longer e-penis, as many …

It might be more representative if you used 1,857.14 xp as a metric (7 dailies * 1000xp + 6000xp from weeklies / 7) instead of a raw 1000xp.

Until the numbers became clear to me a few days ago, I actually thought the additions of the weeklies were pretty neat. Seems like all they did was partition it from …

Well, we know option 1 is impossible. If I can come and go without losing any value, there's really just no longer any reason to really care or commit to hearthstone to any degree since it can be taken and dropped almost at whim. As such the playerbase numbers will …

If I can come and go without losing any value, there's really just no longer any reason to really care or commit to hearthstone to any degree since it can be taken and dropped almost at whim. As such the playerbase numbers will fluctuate wildly, sometimes because the expansion is boring (like during …

Its still too soon to see if they would double down on this. I'm fairly certainly they will eventually tweak the rewards, maybe before the release of Darkmoon, or somewhere around 2 weeks to a month.

I highly doubt that Blizzard would try to change the new …

Its still too soon to see if they would double down on this. I'm fairly certainly they will eventually tweak the rewards, maybe before the release of Darkmoon, or somewhere around 2 weeks to a month.

Its obvious right now that nearly every player is hating it and if they don't resolve this shit then its likely that all …

Quote From griffior

Before I start, I'm going to make it clear that I'm not for or against the new system because I don't know how my net gold or rewards will look at the end of this expansion cycle.

Well, you could go to school/office on the off chance someone there plays hearthstone as well and rub it in his face on how much more achievement points you have compared to him.

Yeah, I noticed some of my progress bar going up even without having played the class.

A small consolation because damned if I was going to give up an arm or a leg to finish any of these.

The new progression system has a few problems, aside from it being generally shit, and my experience with it was thus;

- Like all of you guys, I've grinded up the quests, especially the weeklies, just so I don't lose value. I'm around level 14 now in case you're wondering, and its been a little of a drag I …

Is there any legit way of restarting anyway? Played like 9 matches last week but couldn't find that retire button anywhere. Seems like once you're locked in, you can't just get out like you can in arena.

I can empathize with your opening and honestly its making me sweat as well. My AoO day one pack openings was probably my worst ever in near 4 years of playing, and its genuinely scaring me, since I'll be opening less packs this time round, no thanks to the earlier release for this expansion.

On my wishlist is at …

All those can be easily done with [card]cult neophyte[/card] at the right moment, a solid 3/2 body to boot with absolutely no way of backfiring. Disrupting priest may be a little difficult since the current iteration plays like 4 spell generators, easily more than that in practice, and priest plays quite a number of 1 mana spells.

I get that the achievements coming in and out is rather annoying, but even if it preempts you on your pack opening does it really matter since you'll be getting that legendary anyway? Its not like its taking it away from you.

But I won't lie, I'm getting tired of being reminded that Ive 'set the standard' for the …

I wonder if using the characters Yrel and Lothraxion here would mean that we wouldn't see anything related to the burning legion in later expansions. Both are rather big characters that can hold up entirely on their own, so its curious that we see them together in one expansion.

Its still there. Im not sure if you're playing on mobile, but on pc it's the last button when you press the journal on the front screen (that icon that looks like a purple quill pen). Displays all your stats, arena, ranked, bg, duels

Have a look at the full list. I'll cherry pick a few, but outside of more specific demands like play 20 murlocs, you'll find that finishing the 'harder' quests to be either equal or only minutely inconvenient to the 'easier' quest.

Its always going to some sort of balance when it comes to profits vs the consumer. As much as corporate wants more money, the consumer will likely want to pay less, or get more for the same. Far as I am concerned, the consumer should plays its part by ensuring that corporate won't get away easily with any excesses, and …
