    The game is filled with computer-controlled players aka bots, which ruins the interactive experience and makes it feel like there are no real people playing. Also, I'm quite sure that the game is heavily manipulated in favor of certain outcomes.

    Game was once a masterpiece, now its just another one of bobbys victims, the game has become so broken and so many pointless game breaking cards added to just make money that its become a miserable experience in every way possible

    The game is a pay-to-win PoS. Battlegrounds are NSW poker machines in disguise. Stay away. This is not what computer gaming should be. Blizzard should be disgusted. I hate the fact I've spent so much money on this abuse, stay away!!!

    Played for over 3 years (when it was first released, have quit long time ago). It always has and it will always be a pay 2 win trash, sure, there are couple mildly interesting things here and there, but the p2w and rng fiasco is ten fold what it used to be.

    Do not look at the reviews of the paid, bootlicker critics. Anyone one who has played the game can tell you that it's notoriously unbalanced, bugged, a cash grab and over all a terrible experience.

    Blizzard doesn't care if you have fun on this game. They only care how much money you pay them. Hearthstone is dead. It is no longer recommended to play. Try another game and save yourself time and money.

    Every year Hearthstone gets worse and worse. I've been playing since beta. Now they implemented a battle pass system where you get significantly less gold, require more time to grind, and they have more cards to collect mid expansion.

They used to have free single player content and they promised that single player content will remain free, and now they are charging for single player content. I would NOT recommend anyone to get into this game. They created a new game mode where you need a massive amount of epic cards to unlock the better hero powers. Blizzard used to be a great company - and now all of their products are corrupted by the greed of Activision and the company is no better than EA or any other greedy big gaming company. There is no soul left in the company - only profit pushing.… Expand

    Frustration based game with added programming to ensure people stay at a certain amount of frustration so they are more likely to pay money in a futile attempt to end their frustration.

    The game is designed and programmed to make you feel bad so long you try to pay to get rid of the bad feelings. Why play a game designed to make you feel bad?

    A game that has gone completely off the rails and become an RNG nightmare. A real nightmare, I played the game for some time and had fun, and every year luck and bad luck had more and more to do with winning. A true nightmare. There is actually a card printed thats purpose is to discover the PERFECT card for the situation. Its absurd. Its a shame how awful this game has become.

    Es el peor juego de cartas de lejos. SI puedes evitar jugarlo, hazlo. Se parece más a una tragaperras (necesitas pagar para divertirte y es todo pura aleatoriedad) que a otros juegos de cartas como Magic The Gathering. Una basura en la que cada nueva expansión fomentan el powercreep para que tus cartas antiguas sean peores que las nuevas y te veas forzado a seguir pagando.

    The game was okay until you get to the part where they ban you for daring to express the opinion that basic freedoms should be enjoyed by all. Unfortunately, the game is secretly a digital front for an authoritarian regime.

    Did not enjoy this game. Its poorly designed, slow, and repetitive. Unlike a game like MTG which requires skill and strategy, this is a pay to win game. Blizzard has become a very poor company recently and I am afraid they are going to fail soon.

    It's like playing rock paper scissors but you have you actually pay with real money to use a whole hand just to be able to play one.

Well guess what buddy, they can get a card outside of their deck and swing the entire game around leaving you to die slowly in a painful death. The developers only listen to the community WHEN THEY'RE ABOUT TO SELL SOMETHING. No report system for toxic players. The head developer, Mike Donais, actually thinks that a ROCK-PAPER-SCISSORS game is HEALTHY. That's how much of a dumbass the developers are. Buying an expansion would cost you around $300($200 if you're lucky). And their free content is just droplets to a sea of the expansion. They will just promise to bring you new features but bail out at the last second. This game has no redeeming quality, even fo- ESPECIALLY for free to play players. This game is cancer all around.… Expand

Its also great businesses model to make free to play users frustrated to open their wallets for latest overpowered in order to have better chances of winning. That's the another issue. Fresh released cards packs are overpowered and soon new one pack is released old one gets rework and nerf.

    That means that free user who played for months to get few cards will get something much less power cards in return and with that concluded you can recognize the pattern of pay to win system.

    Community is horrible. Any constructive critics and/or suggestion will be backlash-ed by golden gooses who enjoy winning in rigged, pay to win system and though feel as they accomplished something!

    This game sucks.
    ALL RNG based game, it doesn't care your deck, the amount of RNG on cards involved makes this game totally unfair and an Ode to MEDIOCRITY.

    If you're readings reviews of Hearthstone, you've probably come across some common complaints. All of these are founded, and cripple an extremely well-polished foundation.

All of these are founded, and cripple an extremely well-polished foundation.

    Many users complain of the gameplay's reliance on RNG. While it's true that your starting hand and the cards you draw can win or lose you a game -- and will, quite frequently -- it's hard to imagine how this can be remedied, at this point. Skill, while important to some extent, does not seem the focus.

    Even more troubling for me, a relatively new player, is in difficulty you will find in building a competitive deck. The game will generate daily quests for you, with the ability to earn in-game currency to buy packs of new cards. Unfortunately, these grant relatively small amounts of gold, and may require you to use decks and cards you have no interest in.

    The game allows you to craft any card, so long as you have the requisite dust, a resource gained by disenchanting other cards. While this is a fantastic idea in theory, the amount of dust you receive for disenchanting even the most valuable of cards is so disgustingly minimal that new players will have to trash their entire collection to build the deck they want. The only way around this is to buy packs with real, cold hard cash. Spend enough real-world money, and you can build any deck you want.

    Because ranks are reset every month, a new player will inevitably encounter experienced foes with perfect, meticulously groomed decks, implements they have paid hundreds of dollars to acquire. This leaves a bad taste in the mouth.

    When it doesn't feel like it's stabbing you in the back and openly mocking you, the game can be fun and addicting. Alas, the core gameplay is flawed, and neutralizes most measures of skill. Additionally, by any reasonable interpretation of the term, this is indeed a pay-to-win title. Or at least a pay-to-be-competitive title, because the RNG will still prevent your victory a times, no matter what your skill or deck.    … Expand

    Looks nice, feels nice, but it's not nice. Complete pay to win, and if you don't pay it's a grind-fest. Like many other card games, it's based on luck and requires no skill whatsoever. Stay away and play P2W System! #FixHS

    In the meantime, Hearthstone is definitely worth the entrance free of zero moneys. Now, your time investment may grow to be worth much more than that amount, as is the case with many games under the Blizzard banner. That part, once again, they definitely have gotten right.
