This is how I feel when I read about namechange.

Yeah, way too little way to late. I don't want / need the feature, and I still hadn't used my last name change. But oh god has this feature taken way to long. Blizzard's priority list is something I'd love to see T_T.

Excellent for a free name change. I think they will put in a paid one, but its more important to get HotS right than get the paid change into the game.

Man, I wish these things stacked. I'd have like four by now.

Haha same here.
I keep wanting to change my name, but I can never get myself to do.


Yeah...

If they stacked, I'd change my name once, knowing that I can change it back to what it was if I didn't like it.

And Blizzard wonders why people didn't bother... it's because if you screw up once, you can't fix it because the name changes don't stack >.<.

"We want you to be able to change your name in-game more freely, and do so as often as you like."

How do they type this with a straight face when their plan all along is to charge money to change your name. You'd think at some point they would stop and say " couldn't we just let them change their name like any other fucking game ever"

I don't understand the clan thing, we get a free clan tag in hots so no need to name change with the tag right?

Implementing a clansystem is something so easy to do for a company with a budget like blizzard, it really doesnt deserve any applause. Back in 2007 Supreme commander already had clan mode and free name change just to name an RTS example.

How many times are they gonna apologize about not keeping us updated on stuff until they actually start keeping us updated on stuff?


That's probably because they make more money by not telling you anything. How many players bought multiple accounts? I wouldn't have had I known when they were doing this.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

Why should we even have to pay for a name change? Just put a cooldown on how often we can do it.
