- This Hearthstone bundle is a rip off! Has hearthstone become too expensive?
$35 USD for tsunami, food fight and corpsicle signature cards? CHILD PLEASE!!!!
What do you think about the pricing strategy for these bundles?
I personally would like to see signatures valued at $15 for legendaries, and $5 for non legendaries. What are your thoughts?
When a whale starts "crying" about the prices, it should tell you something about the company greed... They are targeting the top 1% of the customers who has got the money. Hence no map or cinematic :) no more free stuff boys
Thank you! That’s my point exactly. Not how it affects me, but how it affects those who aren’t whales.
Spending 60 dollars on 3 hearthstone cards is unjustifiable, unless you are like super rich ig
It is pretty pricey for sure!
even if you were a millionaire there would still be way better things to spend 60 dollars on IMO
The worth of a legendary is roughly $16, a signature legendary roughly $80. Diamond cards is hard to translate value, but probably more than a standard card so let's say $30. That makes the value roughly $190. Obviously, to someone who doesn't care about the aesthetics, it's worth $0 so that's obviously a terrible deal. But to collectors, whales, etc., that's a steal. The price is unjustifiable *for you*. People are allowed to like buying things. If you don't, then don't.
@@hugomendoza5665 agreed. I dont rate their value that high, but if you like them and you can reasonably afford them , go for it! I would if i could!
"Is hearstone too expensive?" | Meanwhile the Diamond King Tide Bundle at 60$ for 3 cards licking its lips lmao
Tell me about it!
When a whale tells you not to buy something, there gotta be something wrong! Nice vid man.
Thanks!
Spending $60 on the bundle you said was “at value” is encouraging this, it’s a very natural next step based on whale demand
I don’t particularly understand the distinction either, if you don’t want epic signatures why care? If you do, then they’re equivalent new art to other signatures for cheaper no? If it’s about collecting the actual cards for playing wouldn’t you already have them if you’re this level of whale?
A whale is gonna buy everything refardless. And if I feel the need to have it I’ll buy it. Legendary signatures I can understand because the drop rates are so low. But traditionally the non legendary signatures are on the rewards tracks for all.
This doesn’t seem to be in line with providing a reasonable cost for the non whales and I think that’s disingenuous.
If 25% or the cards have signature art, I worry about a time where an entire set has a signature option. We already have golden, signature art imo, should be a very limited in sparse thing
Hearthstone is treating itself like it's a luxury card game to beat all of the competition. But paying for basic stuff is crazy for someone to play TWIST was crazy
for REAL! I really like signatures. I don't mind buying them! But there seems to be no rhyme or reason to the pricing model AND no rhyme or reason to their decision making on different play formats!
All those development resources also could make a better game.
Talking about priorities.
I don't really care about cosmetics. IMO, if Blizzard wants to monetize the game that way I'm totally fine with it. I mean, if some "whales" spend more money into cosmetics or stuff like and F2P / low spenders get more freebies / better Battle Pass in returns, if I think it's a good way to make money. I started playing HS a bit before Naxx got released. Over the years, the rewards for low spenders got better.
They have improved for sure. But there are many more ways to spend money in the game as well
@@DadLegendHS I agree Sire ! My point is rewards for free to play / low spenders. Like buying the Tavern Pass at the beginning of an extension is a good deal (edit : for someone like me who plays HS a lot on my free time).
i was shocked when i saw these prices on the shop
they ain't gonna change unfortunately!
The crazy thing about cosmetics is: you don’t have to buy them to play 🤯
but you do if you want to play with them lol
@@DadLegendHSOMG NO YOU DONT ALL OF THEM ARE IN EVERYONES COLLECTION 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
350$ an expansion.. that's a lot in the context of HS, but this is nothing compared to the whales of mobile games, who spend 10k a year or even more. I mean, hs monetization is a lot worse then of traditional old games, but hell of a lot better then typical mobile games. All os relative
as a guy who spent nearly $5,000 in marvel contest of champions and $2,000 in dragon ball legends, I totally agree. Its much cheaper in comparison. But, I don't think hearthstone is solely a mobile game or meant for a comparable business model.
i just started playing the game and struggling in silver rank because i dont have much dust to create cards ,is there anything i can do apart from donating money to the game ?
If you want a full collection of all the cards now, spending money is the only way. However, you can definitely enjoy the game and rank high as a free tobplay player.
Did you do all the tutorial and intro quest stuff? You get tons and tons of free cards nowadays
I think some people just care about these vanity stuff and these extremely expensive packs are for those people. Believe it or not, people are stupid.
Sure. I’m one of those people as well. But even I can’t get behind some of these deals
Super agree, I use to do the same as you, until 2 years ago. Each expansion spent ~$200.
how much 3A game like Wukong can I buy instead these seldom used cards.
Hearthstone is F**** DEAD unless they low the price to 1 cent per pack.
Very true. And in comparison it’s like, why pay? But I’m hooked. I have a lot of fun playing hearthstone
HS has always been incredibly unfairly priced. I played back when GnG launched till a bit past Un'Goro. Then got back 2 years ago and now just watch some content.
Before duplicate protection it was even worse.
To rub salt on the wound even further, I'm from one of the regions that got the prices doubled a short while back.
Mental. Utterly mental.
Features like duplicate protection have been helpful. I think to just enjoy the game, no extra features, most prices are ok
Honestly I dont see the difference between the bundles. Both or stupidly expensive.. dont buy it, they will just make more. In a year they will have rare signature bundles, in two common bundles. And in tree years they will have a brand new type of cards for whales to cry over/buy !
Yup. I’m honestly debating stopping my whale ways just so I can transition to hearthstone 2 in a year or whenever it gets announced 😂
@@DadLegendHS I have both been buying bundles and been ftp, switching back and forth. And honestly there isn't much difference. I have been ftp since the last rotation and only disenchant when stuff gets nerfed, every expansion I play 2-4 decks and never really need anything. Lots of gold and tons of dust..
Hearthstone2 is a fun thought! :D
hs is long gone down hill after ben brode left
Mmmm I used to think that but I’m not so sure. Definitely as management chsnged the game has seen less support, but I don’t actually think Ben brode did a great job. I feel like the game saw some significant gains when he left
Could not care less if whales are getting ripped off. You're choosing to waste your money on alt card art. There is no gameplay function. Either buy it or doesnt, it is completely inconsequential to anything. The 'cost' of hearthstone means nothing if that cost is not reflected in the cost of actual gameplay. Go spend money on your boy instead of spending it on blizzard, instead of being a self-described whale.
🥱
Complains about blizzard being greedy, yet is a whale that gives up at least 350 dollars every three months or so. Most american video ever
Giving away a free miniset next week. Hope to see you there. 🤡
So don't buy it. It's purely a cosmetic change and it's upfront about that.
Uh…. Ok?
There are a lot of things I don’t buy in life that are upfront about what they are. And they are bad deals or shitty I’ll talk about them too?
if you are paying any amount of dollars for alternative card arts, the only thing that got ripped off was your brain off your spinal cord.
😂
