I was briefly tempted to play, but then the thought of 1k+ poopsocking retards confined to two endgame dungeons and like 10 worthwhile solo camps made me curl up into the fetal position and wish for death.

Red died because there was absolutely no rule enforcement, so Holocaust members trained and zone-crashed all the competition into quitting.

I didn't even try to install the PEQ stuff because it says it's OoW. How bad is that in terms of classicness? Could one just ignore all the post-PoP content or is the earlier stuff also riddled with expansion crap that's gonna fuck with the authenticity? Like you could just not use mercenaries...

Did you ever find out anything? I've been looking for the same thing myself: a ready-to-play setup of something at least vaguely resembling P99. PEQ goes all the way up to OoW and has all sorts of modern shit in it that would ruin the experience, and I don't know of any other packages you can...

I suspect Yogg will still see some play after the nerfs. People seem to have looked at the probability of him eventually dying during his casts and concluded that he's useless every time that happens. In reality, he very rarely dies before the 5th or 6th spell, and that's usually good enough. If...

When I played (before any expansions; this is why I'm asking if it's still like this), skills were just so simple. Almost everything was completely one-dimensional. The majority of my character's skills had the complexity of vanilla WoW's Heroic Strike. There was nothing to think about. For a...

Good changes. The game will be much healthier after this. Now if they can just stop printing a million RNG cards in every fucking expansion, I'll be genuinely happy with Hearthstone.

Do they still have a global cooldown of like three fucking seconds and such primitive skills and character build mechanics that it frankly belongs in the DAoC era? When I tried this game at launch, I couldn't get over how much it felt like playing a decade old MMO.

Flamewrathed Faceless is insanely good. It's so good that it literally created a meta dedicated to countering it which got to the point where it has been hated out of the tournament scene. Any card can end up performing below par when the whole meta revolves around countering it. When...

All games with this basic model will have a huge amount of RNG by default just because the cards you draw determine nearly everything. Honestly, before even creating the cards, the traditional TCG package carries like a 50% luck factor. In the overwhelming majority of games, the outcome is...

Eh. It's a pretty good expansion but I had my fill after a week. Something about it has just gotten so tedious. The way everything is spoonfed to you and so on, it's not like that's a new thing but Legion takes it to such an extreme degree. The game has a total absence of any sense of discovery...

That's a pretty widespread complaint in the Hearthstone community. Each expansion adds more and more RNG, ostensibly because for every player who hates RNG there's a bunch who need everything to be determined by luck in order to remain interested in the game. I've never heard from those players...

Wow, the game runs like ass. I decided to buy it and I basically can't run it on a computer that's less than half the game's age. The FPS drops are absolutely constant and unplayable. This computer ran everything up to and including WoD completely fine, but they did something with Legion that...

What about the simplification of specs? How does that look at 110? I hated it at level 100 when I gave the game a brief shot during the prepatch. Most of my characters felt like level 30 characters or something. Even factoring in the artifact, which rarely makes up for the often 10+ abilities...

This is the first time I don't buy a WoW expansion right away, but I still might get it. I'm just not sure if I want to gamble my time on it after being disappointed in the last three expansions. What's the verdict? Can anyone give a serious review at this point? Especially interested in hearing...
