Imagine a somewhat oversized, bearded fairy appeared, hollering “Well met!” and granting you a once in a lifetime chance of 3 hearthstone related wishes. What would you wish for?
Here are mine:
1. Change the dust economy. Disenchanting a card should reward half of its cost in dust. That would lead to more possibilities for everyone, hopefully resulting in more creativity. Furthermore, people who like golden cards could now get one for every eighth card of the same rarity they dusted, which sounds fair to me.
2. Make solo content available offline. I would love to be able to play solo adventures on a train or a bus without having to rely on a working internet connection. Often enough, the latter is not a given thing. Being able to play offline might significantly increase the time (and maybe even number of) people played hearthstone.
3. Abandon “time-walls”. While it is possible to craft or obtain every card in the game if you invest heavily enough, there is no way to compensate if you missed out on an expansion release or an event offering hero skins. I understand that people paid heavily for their mega bundles and don’t want the hero skins to be given away for free to everyone, but why not add them to the shop for let’s say double the price of the usual hero skins? I would certainly be intrigued by the prospect of getting Madame Lazul for 20 €.
Since I’m not sure if my wish number 2 is technically possible (how much storage would be needed?), I’ll sneak in a joker: I want more cosmetics. Give us something to do after obtaining 500 wins. Give us entry effects, emotes, pets, diamond borders, whatever.
Now what would be your wishes? What are the top three things you’d like to change?
