who the fuck would want to play this shit in 2018. DOTA lost 40% of it's playerbase already, it's gonna be 500k or less in 2018

>>387853657
Yes WoW was also losing its playerbase

and yet,
hearthstone

Honestly, I'm really glad valve made this move. Now people will hopefully understand that Valve is a corporation like any other and won't give them the benefit of the doubt or put them on a pedestal. I've got no idea whether or not the game itself will flop though. Hope it does.

>valve was just being good guy valve until they started charging LITERAL money for their products. The fucking jews how dare they expect money in return.

Who is the market for this game? Are Heartstone players hungry for anew card game?

It's not about charging money for their shit it's about making another lazy hearthstone clone for micro-transaction money when they could be making a legitimately good game. They could have put out a sequel for any of their valuable IP's, they could have made a new one, they could have done almost anything other than this shit and I would have supported it. If you want to play artifact just play hearthstone, or shadowverse, or elder scrolls legends, or any other fucking online CCG. I'm sick of every fucking game valve puts out relying on micro-transactions. They are as bad as blizzard at this point.

not really... What they're tying to do is catch both moba players and hearthstone players in one game. Since its supposed to have 3 lanes with three heros and shit like that....

>>387853560
that call of duty game had more downvotes and still sold like hotcakes

this means nothing, sadly.

>>387854530
you are implying all production on the like 4 other games they have in the works have been put on hold so all resources could have been put towards this game.

Like I hope one day when I save up enough money and try to run my own business that I am allowed to make good business decisions as well.

>>387854638
Resources dedicated to a shit game are resources that aren't dedicated to a good one and it's not like valve needs any more micro-transaction money to fund a decent game. They're too busy sitting on their asses and racking in the shekels. I've got no problem with companies making money if they do it honestly, but I feel valve could have done so much better than this. So many people on /v/ accuse other people of hating video games just because they want decent games instead of the same cookie-cutter bullshit.

I don't think you realize how much of a money grab this is... I know valve is a corporation, and thats what they do... make money... but you cannot just brush off the fact that the first game they have bothered developing in years is a blatant cash grab copy for hearthstone.

That is inherently fucked - sure people can enjoy the game, fine. but that doesn't stop this whole ordeal from being shady as fuck.

Lets not forget the whole paid mod fiasco... I honestly hope this game doesnt do well - so valve can at least understand a little bit better on how their customers feel towards their stupid decisions as of late...

But you're just a paid shill, so there's no more reason in arguing with you anymore - so i'll leave it at that.

>>387854942
tipped like a sir at this post

>>387854916
ok

what ever game you wanted valve to put resources behind especially, I now think its a shit game.

See now valve would be allocating resources to a shit game.

>>387854942
>I don't think you realize how much of a money grab this is... I know valve is a corporation, and thats what they do... make money... but

Didn't read further

literally everything anyone will ever do in the history of humanity that involves producing and selling a product is a cash grab. Literally everything you are wearing, own, and enjoy is a cash grab.

>>387853657
>DOTA lost 40% of it's playerbase already
no

I don't still how the hell card games on lanes would work to start with and what cards would be added in the first place.

I'll not be surprised if the expansion will be just hats.

People like you are the main reason why the gaming industry is fucked to begin with, god dam whales who just keep eating plates of shit that are handed to them on gold platters.

>>387855157
those whales are literally funding your games. Many of which you don't even have to pay for to enjoy because its profitable to have like one guy pay enough for the content that 3 other guys would have had to pay to enjoy if it were just single purchase.

Watch as battlefield 2 just revealed they are adding paid lootboxes that aren't just cosmetics. This is a shitty decision but its not going to go on. Everyone is going to call them out on their shit. the game will either flop or they will change it. This is what happens in the real world not some slave shit were you are forced to buy things you don't want. I think you fell too hard for the jaded /v/ meme.

>>387853740
Hearthstone did nothing on WoW's playerbase and it is also dying now
What the fuck was the point of your post even

I am unironically excited for this game.

>>387855497
the claim that this is going to fail because its based off of a failing game

hearthstone was a profit and no game lasts forever. Would be like claiming Pacman was a failure because people aren't playing it 50 years later.

tl;dr deal with it nerd

>>387854942
>they have bothered developing in years is a blatant cash grab copy for hearthstone.

Seriously nigga?
The game where we don't even have an actual trailer of? Because it's a card game it's a fucking Hearthstone clone?

Post yfw you realize we won't be getting Portal 3 or L4D3 in our lifetimes. I don't even care about episode 3 at this point, I just want my last dying wish for a Valve game to be one of those two IPs. After that Gabe Newell can fuck off and die during his inevitable bypass surgery.

>>387856392
L4D3 will be out next year

We have screenshots and concept art already
>mfw people actually believe in the 'valve doesn't make video games anymore' meme

>>387852504
The only reason this exists is so Valve can get a cut of the digital booster pack market. if the game does fail I doubt it'll set valve back at all. It's a no risk possibly very high reward situation.

>>387856589
>next year
oh i am laffin

>>387855431
They aren't funding my games if I'm not buying and playing AAA western garbage with microtransactions. The only thing buying into these practices do is encourage them to put these practices into more games because it did well the first time. See Activison injecting the CoD 4 remake with microtransactions, and Shadow of War introducing lootbox style stuff.

>>387853223
Nobody is going to buy it
Because it's free

I actually wanted a dota 2 card game
where's my gold foil anti-mage art

>>387857135
It will be a level 10 million compendium award for the mindless dota acolytes that shovel millions of dollars on an annual basis for a virtual book in a free game. And people wonder why Valve acts the way they do now. They are making obscene profit off of almost no work.

>>387857106
I'm going to buy it

the singletons from the steam market my man :^)

>>387857352

>>387853223
You're confusing blizzard with valve.
It will do worse than Gwent (rip)

>>387857707
wat

I was directly talking about blizzard to compare it to this valve game

also gwent was also a meme and you could play it before it was standalone. It was dumb to try to make a standalone game out of turbo uno

Give it some time. Dota will go the TF2 route and disembowel any kind of aesthetic it had for loadouts consisting of sparkly effects and shiny colors for the low price of $300 a month in keys. But at least you'll be shiny.

At this point I just want Valve to collapse and that fat fuck Gabe choke on his deep fried grilled cheese already. Too many people have died waiting for a new Valve game installment and these husks of humans no better than fucking EA, Activision and Ubisoft have the fucking audacity to announce a card game to an unwanted fucking moba after eight years of nothing. Thos entire industry needs a second collapse really.

It's fucking sad and I still hope L4D3 isn't a pipedream forever.

>>387854942
You double mon'keigh I might be the biggest Blizzdrone on this site and even I know Artifact isn't a HS copy.
Shit, I'm actually sad Valve marketed it as a Card Game, since it sounds like it plays more like a standard board game.

says who? is there any talent still left in the company given they've gone so long without (presumably) having anything in the works?
