Why Companion?
As Out of Games branches out into different games, so does the need to start building up data. For Hearthstone, this would come in the form of tracking games that are played so that we can begin to create insights on the website of what the meta looks like, live.
For Hearthstone, there are other tools that do the same thing; Hearthstone Deck Tracker and Firestone. You can run the Out of Games Companion alongside these tools but have your data also upload to our service to help us create a way to build out a free way to deliver the meta.
Out of Games has always been an ad-supported website. We've had a few paid features, like finding decks with your card collection, or being able to earn more experience, but we've never put content behind a paywall.
It's important we keep it that way.
Out of Games is not a premium-focused website. Our mission is to deliver top quality information about games to the audiences and so as a way of helping us do this and to support the endeavour, you can give us your gameplay data.
Companion supports Hearthstone right now, and not very in-depth yet. There are almost certainly problems. On initial release, our in-game overlay is not recommended for anyone being serious about Hearthstone because it isn't reliable yet. But, that's why we're releasing this as a beta test.
Companion is fast. Why? Because we aren't using clunky chromium-based frameworks. Everything is as native to the operating system as we can make it so it stays lean.
