and wtf is sc2 phoenix

Wait a sec, what is Starcraft 2 X1 in there?


Expansion 1 (HotS)

So they originally planned for each expansion to be 1.5 years after the original? That was...optimistic.

Don't get your hopes up, PoE sucks ass.
They have amazing design ideas, an intuitive yet hardcore skill- and itemsystem and gritty, dark graphics.
Yet it lacks in one regard: the gameplay is more than boring, clunky, spammy, it plain sucks. It's as antediluvian as Diablo 2, without the fluidity and "oomph"-factor.

Free to play card game?... well this was the biggest anticlimax of the year so far.

Def worth a try. Looks good and i played competitive TCG's for 10 years.
I was able to pick up the gameplay 5 minutes into the tutorial. Shouldnt take more than an hour for new TCG players.
I hope this gets big in the TCG community and Im sure Blizzard fans dont mind it.

If youre butthurt for some odd reason(you wanted something sc2 related?) its a F2P game you dont have to play if you dont want to
stay butthurt because Im very certain this game will be the new TCG we've been looking for(hopefully competitively)
Pokemon Yugioh and MTG are getting stale

If you dont see this as a big announcement it is. A video game company thats usually buy-to-play is making a competative CARD game that free-to-play.
They did a complete 180.

keep being butthurt people
good job blizzard on taking the risk.

This is bad. But PoE is utter shit.

This is a matter of opinion tbh. I find PoE to be the real Diablo3, I even find it more fun than Diablo2 which I played nonstop for years.
Set it ablaze!

I thought they said the dev team was only 5 people? Perhaps I misheard (I'm watching it at work and I work in a noisy lab environment) but I thought they said 15 devs were interested, but only 5 were on the team?

Oh well, looks fun either way.

People are too fucking impatient and a lot of them have this sense of entitlement, as if Blizzard owes everyone a big, life-changing game. Seriously? Blizzard "back then" made great games, and Blizzard today still makes great games (Okay, D3 was a bit of a flop). But still, people get older and their views change, as do their interests. Blizzard devs are no exception. I'm tired of all these whiny posts about how Blizzard sucks, and their games are bad, blah blah blah, etc, etc.

If you don't like it, move along.

I can see a mouse-cursor, I doubt it will be mobile only.

If it were, I suppose it'd be iOS only, because that's the dominant market in the US, but that would suck for Europeans, because we prefer Android.

Not releasing for both platforms would be shooting your self in the foot. Any big developer would release for both OS's


A good deal with Apple might make up for the lost Android user. I guess there could be not very intelligent people who could buy an ipad because they can't play WoW, the gathering on android.

I think it was a mistake to announce it at PAX East. It got people hyped for something bigger than it was.

But still, I think once the disappointment that it's not some huge revolutionary project dies down, people will see it for what it is: A fun, casual card game that's easy to learn and fun to play. That's it. If you like that sort of thing, or you admire Blizzards level of polish, it will be worth trying. If you don't, no loss. Blizzard haven't abandoned everything else they do, they're just experimenting with smaller projects.

The hyperbolic "this is exactly how I felt when my puppy got hit by a car" statements are really entertaining.
This, too, shall pass.

We'll see how it goes, they might bring it to Android later. It's probably just wanting to keep the amount of platforms reasonable. Windows 7/8 support, Mac support, ioS support. It kinda adds up. Though I do hope for an android releae later.

Oh please, I've been criticizing D3 for it's RMAH just as hard. And I don't even have D3, so I don't play it.

Get a clue and stop making things up.

I think they are just using this to test their f2p model and see if they can expand it to their current and future games.

I have this recurring dream of coming this close to getting laid but then something interfers, like I want to brush my teeth real quick and then the house is set ablaze, or I run out to get condoms and get shot.

This announcement felt pretty much like that dream, given that they design a game I could see myself getting into and then announcing it's iOS only. Portable Windows devices are so lackluster right now.

According to the FAQ there's a special gift for beta testers.

http://us.battle.net/hearthstone/en/faq/#q8a

I've made the same argument for the HotS portraits, but this is completely unfair.

Did Mist of Pandaria beta testers get anything exclusive? No, because that would be outrageously unfair to the several million WoW players that couldn't get in.

Because this isn't a serious game, I care a little less than I did for HotS, but it's still not fair.

Also, I'm turned down by this, but it is alright, we still have E3 and Blizzcon for them to show us the hot new games for PC.

God damn, people are so whiny when something doesn't cater to them. Just because it's not for you doesn't mean there aren't a lot of other people that are really happy to have the game.
