Blizzards Hearthstone team >>>> Diablo 3 team

[Damian79]

Seriously WTF.  Hearthstone team team was talking about balancing the game and how they would introduce new features of the game in a way that wont alienate gamers/casuals/thrifty gamers alike.  Diablo 3 team talked nothing about balancing, they were talking about new features, adventure mode.  I am convinced that the diablo 3 team cannot balance the game and that i will be stuck with firebats(fire spin) and sheep on my witch doctor. 

Looks like they are not even remotely concerned about balancing the game.  I am so much more impressed with the Hearthstone team its not funny.

Great thread.  You're really giving Borys a run for his money here.

I want to be able to think "hey I can really mix and match my skills" in Diablo 3.  There are definitely top teir skills and that sucks.  Hearth stone is trying to balance every single card one by one as well as every single class.  Truly makes a tear to my eye how dedicated they are to that.  Diablo 3 seems even worse than WoW where they took years to nerf death knights.

[Steve Contra]

Indeed.

itt a nintard tries (sort of) to convince us he's upset about how D3 turned out

[fizzel]

Fuck balance, give me crazy broken shit to do.

I guess that's the way the game design is these days.  One skill does 500% weapon damage the other skill does 250% in virtually the same range.  Awesome choices people.

Wait you think I am faking or some shit?  That's a poor argument coming from even you.  I am not upset that Diablo 3 is not balanced I am upset that they are not even trying to fix it.

That Blizzard is gone. See: how Blizzard continues to "balance" SC2 into blandness

[Damian79]

To be fair you cant bunch Blizzard all into one.  It is like saying all Nintendo is good or bad,  you have to go on a team by team basis it seems.  Hearthstone and HotS is the last time i dare hope for some balance from Blizzard.  I mean with WoW 3 they nerfed EVERYTHING instead of balancing skills.  Diablo 3 they did the same.  I guess that is what sells these days.

[Human Snorenado]

Diablo is not, has never, and will never be a game like wow where "balance" is integral.  Fuck off with that shit.  The game is about killing monsters for loot.

Now, at exceedingly higher difficulties when playing for greater rewards, you're going to get funneled into a couple of different viable builds due to what's the most efficient, survivable, etc. 

You haz a sad because you have to play a WW barb or a CM/archon wizard to beat bosses/elites on MP 10 instead of your own wonderfully unique, beautiful snowflake of a build that you thought up ALL ON YOUR OWN?  Oh you poor fucking baby.

WTF are you on about.  I am playing on MP10 easily with my build on about paragon 34.  I am raping everything with it.  There is no variety for builds for high level play.  How many hellfire rings have you made?

[magus]

i find this thread funny because if you go to the official page of hearthstone the first news item is how they are going to nerf some card

Like... 40? 

I don't know, I haven't bothered to play in months, I do know they nerfed shit, so apparently now you CAN play with dumb builds on MP 10.

WAH WAH WAH YOU CAN'T PLAY ANYTHING BUT COOKIE CUTTER BUILDS ON MP 10

*nerfs difficulty so whiny ass titty babies can play their stupid builds on MP 10*

WAH WAH WAH THERE'S NO CHALLENGE THE GAME IS POORLY BALANCED

Wait fuck, why am I having this conversation with you?  Jesus.  Go die in a fire, fuckbreath.

[Damian79]

God you are an idiot.  So instead of balancing skills in high level play so that you can variety and challenge they just nerf enemies because they believed it was too hard.  So there is STILL no variety and now there is no challenge... and you applaud that.   Are all blizzard fans like you?  Can they do no wrong?  You have your head so far up their ass your shit is also their shit.

[Human Snorenado]

All skills should do the same damage, just have different skins placed on their animations.  Got it.

[Damian79]

Where did you get that from what i said?  Skills should do damage based on what they do.

[Damian79]

Wait a second they nerfed shit again?  I was talking about the nerf before they introduced Monster Power.  It was actually hard before that when they first launched.  Inferno mode was actually harder than MP 10, Diablo was actually hard on that shit so was the Act 2 boss.
