Everyone who created Blizzard quit and now pink haired SJWs and basedlords run the company.

Kill two birds with one stone: appease SJWs, appease the Chinese

China and Silicon Valley

Both of those are correct.

They got bought out by Activision like a decade ago or something

They censored their cards for the Chinks. It's pretty lazy of them, instead of just creating a regional version they just shit on the cards for everyone
Also the
>male sexuality bad
movement is happening

They did it for the Chinese, even MCU bends to the will of the Chinese user

NOOOOOOO MY CARTOON TIDDIES THE GAME IS LITERALLY RUINED. You faggots don't care about anything that doesn't make your peepee hard and anyone trying any different design is a sjw attack personally against you

You know, China is doing us a favor by accelerating the the state of the video game industry. Either Western video game companies are forced to completely segregate the Chinese from the rest of the world or Western AAA companies eager for Chinese money kowtow and force the changes into the Western versions, which piss people off with how nonsensically sanitized it is and start abandoning those games more and more, accelerating the next video game decline.

Hellhounds predate succubi by about a thousand years, give or take.

there are already enough random demon/monster warlock cards and not enough sluts

Because we already have a Felstalker card and the Felstalkers main job is to siphon mana from our OPPONENTS so why would it cause US to discard a card?

It has nothing to do with chinks, roaches had their separate subhuman censored version (pic) for years now.
It is pure SJW faggotry and they try to appear to 3+ kids now more then ever with no blood and gore (see latest expansions art degradation).

It absolutely has everything to do with the chinese market. Blizz has done this before in WoW. They're constantly trying to appease their biggest demographics and maximize profits, they don't care about social changes

Haven't played Hearthstone in years, but desu the concept of Succubus has a lot more potential than a boring discard mechanic. They likely have some succubus action planned and people are overreacting.

>being breeding age for its species

>yOU GUYS ARE PROBABLY OVERREACTING BASED ON MY PURE SPECULATION
fuck off

They said people didn't feel comfortable making/having/drawing that kind of card anymore.

People saying china are retarded. People have already mentioned how china has had their own versions of cards for a while and the game has been in china for years. Unless there is a recent chinese law then this is all internal. I think they are actually trying to make it a childrens game.

there was also another succubus card, mistress of pain, got renamed/redesigned too
I appreciate your optimism but I think nu-blizz doesnt like succubi at all
now of course they arent a very child friendly type of demon to include in a game, but then, why include them in the first place?

Now they both do, but MTG is still more complex and fun to play. Shitstone lost its only advantage.

How are they not child friendly though?
Little me would have loved that card art...

Why are you phrasing your stupidity like a question? Mark Rosewater has explicitly said the push for more “inclusive” character designs is “making up for years of having white dudes on cards.” This shit is public knowledge.

attractive women bad
eldtritchian horror good

These are the same people who think it's morally right to inject hormones into a 6 year old.

There is a difference between being more inclusive in your character design in future cards and reprints and then changing the design of a card completely and even renaming it to appease people. At least in MTG if they change a cards art and you dont like it you can still get the older version you do like.

It's astonishing how quickly Blizzard imploded

It reminds me of Nokia

Who the fuck cares about blizzard
I mean caring about any corporation ever unless you are the owner of it is bullshit, but yeah some developers are still relevant
Blizzard on the other hand have not put out a new IP for like 20 years or something
It's like caring about Unilever or something
Fuck blizzard

>Blizzard on the other hand have not put out a new IP for like 20 years or something
Overwatch isn't a new IP? Granted it quickly degraded, but still.

Bobby 'Pay to reload' Kotick is most pleased. His quarterly reports are gonna look so good when he liquidates Blizz.

>ubisoft can afford multiple licensed songs for a fucking rayman game
>blizzard put this shit in a trailer
They literally develop money machines, what the fuck

Yeah there is no way in hell this is a final product, it was removed because it isnt finished.

I get the hate boner for Blizz is strong right now but look at things critically.

I literally forgot Overwatch existed when thinking about Blizzard until you mentioned it. In a fucking thread about Blizzard.

I guess League is going to remove Miss Fortune and Sona then as well? They are more sexualized than that succubus is.

I mean to be fair it was pretty much only good in 2016, and then went to the shitter after that, so I can understand how you'd easily forget it.

Only around 2 of the card changes were related to removing “suggestive” art.
All the others were toning down violence and removing blood.

Why would they put something on their official channel if it wasn't finished?

It's not Blizzard's fault you're retarded.

Literally this. If you look at world population china is something like 1.4 billion and india is 1.3 billion with the US coming in at like 400 million. Big surprise the 2 countries with the largest populations are absolute shitholes with massive uneducated populations still believing in superstitious bullshit and shitting up the world. Hearthstone is dying so they are probably trying to appeal to children and chink authorities by changing art

Hm you are right, however the literally only good thing about overwatch is the porn. And that song
I mean people are talking about a MtG clone based on the setting of a game that came out when I was a little shit
Which means it came out when most people here were not even born
The game itself is the phone version of card games by the way
Blizzard is meaningless to talk about. I still play SC2 co-op sometimes but that's it

By accident? Explains why they removed it as well, it was not meant to be put on their channel.

China is already de facto segregated from the western entertainment market. There are a lot of consumers, but their purchasing power is actually quite low individually compared to everywhere else with an entertainment market. Monetization models that are successful in the west don't really work in China and vice versa.

China is a tyranny. They have concentration camps for Uyghurs. They murder protesters and journalists. They harvest the organs of people who speak negatively about the government.

Caving to internet whining from privileged Americans is dumb but who cares. Caving to China and paving the way to compromise with people you should under no circumstances compromise with is a different matter.

The lack of tits isn't the concern.

I mean Overwatch doesn't really dispel the point that Blizzard is washed up, since everything at this point that Blizzard puts out is mediocre at best, and the "newest" IP they made has already failed to make any impact like Blizzard's other IPs have. And Blizzard is currently busy trying to destroy the memories people have with the other shit.
And meanwhile even fucking Activision, who is riding Blizzard like a rented mule, is doing better now that it's started popping out Crash/Spyro remakes and publishing new games from other studios like FROM's Sekiro.

PG-13 is too high a rating for chinese adults.

>Blizzard replaces Hearthstone card art with more violent and less sexualised alternatives

Being American is truly a sickness of the mind

You are making a lot of assumptions you fucking projecting wagie. Its as simple as misclicking and uploading the wrong file and then a few hours later seeing that its up and removing it.

Use your fucking head, would the giant corporation who puts a lot of effort into their cinematic release that shit?

He still works at Blizz. There's still hope as long as Chad Browder is around.

What do you mean? Blizzard was fucking garbage for the last 10 years. In order for something to happen, they would have to get better.

I realise it's probably a placeholder that got posted by accident, but this looks like some shit a 1-man studio would make in two days just so he could have SOME kind of marketing for his game.

Why would it have been a placeholder and why would such a placeholder be posted? I see no point in developing a half-product which is so unusable that it cannot be continued or refactored into something remotely useable, nor the point in simply putting a placeholder on youtube since you cant replace video content - the "placeholder" cannot hold a place for another video, it would have to be deleted and the other video uploaded separately.

It really isn't that simple. I work for a marketing firm(close to Blizzard hq actually) and for them to upload a video to their official Youtube page would require gross incompetence in many departments. It might be believable if they uploaded the finished version right after with an explanation, but that's not what happened.

>if you don't inject your child with hormones we're going to take them from you and put you in prison

The people who make games aren't making them as a hobby or as a passion anymore. They're developing them to get the optimal return on sales without risking alienating ANY potential costumers. It's the same with all other industries.
TV shows have horrible animation because it's cheaper and the art style is super simple so anyone from the age of 3 and up can understand it. Same with movies and their plots. Same with most comics. Same with most video games.

Late stage capitalism is here. Baby boomers, generation X, and the older millennials got to enjoy entertainment media at it's peak. Everything is downhill from here.

That's not the reason. Hearthstone always had a separate China client with different monetization, events and art.

Since China already had censored art in their client, does this have anything to do with broadcasting esports events? Are they doubling down on hearthstone after HotS's esports division folded?

The difference is that the people screeching about the censorship actually buy/play the fucking games

They scrubbed away all the blood from cards too.

Afaik the chinks made the rules even more strict. Or blizzard are just a bunch of faggots. Or both.

>Look at things critcally
Ok then, so let's think about what would have needed to happen in order for this "Accident" to have occured.
1. Somebody made this as a placeholder/demo and then accidentally rendered it appropriately for Youtube, rather than an uncompressed file for to work as a guide or a compressed file for a placeholder
2. Someone accidentally transferred this file from the employee's workstation to whatever method they use to send files to the publishing team or accidentally managed to save the file in the folder meant for published videos
3. Someone either accidentally uploaded the video without looking at it, or simply uploaded it without questioning its quality because they're either incompetent or aren't allowed to ask questions
4. Whoever uploaded it accidentally forgot to watch the video on Youtube to check for issues (Which is standard practice) before publishing the video
5. The media team accidentally forgot to watch their own video on Youtube so they could replace it when they realized it was a placeholder

It's significantly more believable to just say the people in charge of making this video were incompetent. Plus, if it was an accident, then surely the "Real" version of the video should be up very soon.

but every chinese game i've played has been full of panty shots and lewd shit

Yes but in China, it's okay when Chinese companies do it.

Not to mention that all of that only makes sense if they were actually supposed to be uploading the real version of the video. It's one thing to accidentally upload the wrong version of two videos, but if the real version isn't ready yet, then whoever was in charge of uploading the video shouldn't have been trying to upload it in the first place.

Eviscerate is the worst one.

Why would they censor a skeleton? I know they're scary, but they're not real.

Imagine being the artist and being super happy that your art is on a video game, then 5 years later being told you're literally destroying women lives and you need to be censored

For a second I thought they gave her a dick in the new art.

>It has nothing to do with chinks
every single blizzard game is dying in the west
the future of their company is the mobile chinese market

Skeletons are taboo in chinkland or some shit

Also bravo to Blizzard for having the balls to say that they weren't censoring for the chinese, even when they go ahead and make changes like this

You know they are under a dictatorship right? They subservient but it is not them making these decisions.

Probably a smart move, no reason not to cater Hearthstone to younger audiences, especially as it is easily played on a phone or pad

Don't forget they also didn't hold any Pride events on their korean OW streams, only in western streams. The very second promoting faggots would carry the risk of hurting their bottom line, they censor them out.

It's taboo there, undeads in the Chinese wow don't have bone joints.
In that case undeads look better imo never liked how the joints ruin good looking sets, but this is bullshit

Chinese are pretty autistic when it comes to online gaming. The only real risk for western gaming companies is the chinese government itself which can ban their games at any time on a whim. Usually Tencent buys the rights to basically publish western games in the chinese market separately for this reason.

if you imagine how many billions of dollars Blizzard can make with a Chinese audience you would turn your card art in a fraction of a second if it you get a cut wouldn't you?

China has implemented a bunch of stringent requirements on Western games specifically to fuck with Western video game companies and ensure that the Chinese are never exposed to anything beyond microtransaction shitfests. The Western game companies realized how profitable microtransaction shitfests are, and are willing to censor their own games globally if it means getting money from one country that just happens to have a billion people ready to use their social credit points to buy pictures or skins.

It is, but it also shows Blizzard or the sycophant trannies cheering for Blizzard don't actually care about faggots at all, when they fail to support them in countries where they most need help. In western countries its completely risk-free these days.

>china brings more dosh than the west
>every game in the west is dying

They're just in a transit right now, they'll kill their western versions of their IP to release mobile versions for the eastern crowd, diablo was the first, the rest will follow

Welcome to capitalism, buddy. Corporations have no morality.

The only good digital CCG that still exists is Gwent, and it's struggling unfortunately.

Thank god, we wouldn't want the country of China to become a place of moral degeneracy.

Every tech company, game company, and media company has seen the potential market of literally 4 times the US's population. Literal billions of unwashed, uneducated commonfolk with no deterrent to scummy money schemes and advertisement/brainwashing. The only barrier is their (and their government's) superstitious beliefs in having demons/dead things/spiritual things in their media without some sort of cleansing ritual or whatever.
Ever wonder why gacha games and casinos are so appealing to the chinese? They lack that part of their mind that sees scams for what they are.

Still bad though. I mean they could've been better off just doing the Rise of Shadows trailer some more which is actually decently done.

capitalism doesn't care about anything because it's an abstraction, retard. What you're trying to say, which is that decisions made in a capitalist system are always made to maximize profit, is also wrong. Shareholders and top-level executives usually have that as their only real concern, but everyone involved in the running of the company brings their own agenda and bias. For instance Disney execs might not give a shit about politics but a director might want to make some statement implicitly condemning colonialism in their movie. You can't erase human tendencies by simply disincentivizing them, only suppress them

>the goal is x

Corporatism is where large corporations hold so much influence in government that they become de facto government at least in part, not where a corporation does a thing.

it has everything to do with china; they want money, and the way they make money is by pleasing the chinese government. they are a business that wants profit

"sjws" lmao this isn't 2016 anymore

just like how americans hate guns so the government tightens gun laws right?

I miss him leading Heroes. He was always so responsive on Twitter and always resolved to get issues fixed, then actually followed through.

Still, I miss Blizzard giving even half a shit about giving that game any attention in general.

because idiots like you talk about it and give them free press. Thanks to you Hearthstone is back on the minds of players who quit but feel the need to get their fix. Thanks for being a sheep to Blizzard.

Speak for yourself. This change killed the last shreds of interest I had on that game. Or any Blizzard game in particular.

What the actual fuck happened to blizzard

I’d like to compare that brapper to my penis

One is large and impressive, the other is your penis.

fuck blizzcucks

SJWs and art just don't mix

To be fair that's a rip-off of reservoir dogs opening. Which almost no one picked up on because why would they? It's obscure as hell. That doesn't excuse it's awful and cheap execution though.

have you ever seen hearthstone fans in real life?
they're all parents and kids. get real, blizz knows their audience thanks to daddy activision being in bed with all the advertising spy companies

>install and login to hearthstone after 3 years
>nothing new
>no freebies
>nothing
>all my cards that used to be good are now "Wild" and useless
>uninstall
great game blizzard. its basically a "if you don't spend $300-500 or 2000 hours grinding a month, you lose" skinner box trash.

>reservoir dogs
>obscure as hell

People know what it was going for. Doesn't change it couldn't be more amateur if they tried.

How many people that watched that video do you really think new it was a riff on the opening to reservoir dogs?

I'd bet less than 10%. That movie is not only old but it was a specific part of the movie, not often referenced anywhere else.

>never spend more than $5 on the game except for the starter pack
>do quests daily
