What's a "pre-school teen"?

I think Dean has made it pretty clear he's not answering Mercs questions because he's not on that team. But I can tell you the answer to any questions about the bugs, because what else would they say? "We're working …

Has any videogame in history ever launched without any bugs? I can't imagine that, especially these days with massive multi-platform releases. It would be quite the improvement if everyone published their known bugs from the start - I think this …

At least they're letting you know so you can decide whether or not it's a dealbreaker.

Pretty sure they give away at least that many every expansion - they certainly give a ton of codes to streamers to distribute on their channels.

I'm gonna go with a conservative estimate and suggest that 90% of Hearthstone players don't follow the pre-release announcement cycle very closely or at all. Calling it "too little too late" is pretty silly for a mode they intend to …

Quest Mage *overall* is at 51.1% on HSReplay - if you cherry pick specific builds which have very poor data, you'll find outliers at higher percentages, but that's not how data analysis works. You have to look at the WHOLE …

Your opinion places you in a TINY minority of players who like Warlock being utterly broken in Wild. To not acknowledge this is really myopic. Blizzard doesn't design the game with you alone in mind - they have to try …

If that were the only way to obtain packs, maybe you'd be right. But it's not even close to the entire free rewards package. It doesn't take a lot of brain power to get that, either, but you're arguing in …

Yeah, free-to-play rewards are SOOO greedy. You really nailed this take.

Iksar could hardly have made it clearer, but let's try one more time here, for the VERY simple readers: he is not allowed, on penalty of losing his job, to discuss ANY details of Mercenaries right now. The fact that …

Sure, a game that you can literally get to first place in the world while paying zero dollars is a "cash grab." You REALLY nailed that take, so smart man.

So only one side is allowed to weigh in? That's a really weird stance.

Imagine having an utterly subjective opinion on the quality of an extremely popular game and thinking that you're objectively right.

It's their job to make a good game, and as far as I'm concerned they've done it successfully for …

I love that you think your cookie-cutter, copy-and-pasted "criticism" qualifies as non-conformist. Keep drinking that haterade, man, because anyone still sticking dollar signs in company names truly comes across as a joke.

Developing a new mode players have been extremely excited for is not a "cash grab" - grow up. By your definition, every single employed person going to work every day is engaged in a "cash grab," and that's an utterly …

If you come to relax, then just ignore this and continue to relax. Games can't warp their design around the small (but extremely vocal) group of people who develop completionist anxiety. If that's your issue, I imagine you're MUCH more …

The quest doesn't have to work in every single match-up for it to be valuable. In pocket metas, maybe you tech it in to give a more consistent win condition in long control mirrors. A massively armored Control Warrior won't …

We don't have way more workplace sexual harassment issues? Woooow. I didn't realize you had never spoken to a woman before in your life. Good luck, man. You're gonna need it.

You really can't see how objectifying women in the workplace and objectifying women in the product produced by that workplace are directly connected? I really don't think you're arguing in good faith here, because this stuff is pretty blindingly obvious.
