I actually missed the Twin Slices nerf, that class is just a mess Also technically a buff to Odd DH, I guess?

Breezed through the adventure without losing once, except to the loving Mecha Ogre where I died three times lmao. I dunno, he just kept insanely bullshitting me with that hero power. That 5 mana draw three and summon all minions, except in actuality it was "Oops, all 8 mana taunts" without fail. The final fight is like a mega anti-climax compared to some of the others, at least it was for me.

Lots of the adventure bosses this time are weirdly high variance. Fought the one that plays a random lightning-themed spell every time she overloads and it varies all the way from plain old lightning bolt up to the 10 mana spell that makes three 3/5 taunts. First run I got massacred, second time around was an effortless stomp.

There's some really fun encounters like escaping the fel storm and the mech orc, but overall is with a boring as hell deck after all the fun dungeon runs.

I feel like between this and Galakrond's they somehow forgot that the most fun part of the dungeon runs and the like were drafting weird new cards.

Yeah, Dungeon Runs were a lot of fun, so I hope they come back. Did they say what the 'challenges' are next week? As for the adventure deck, yeah it was pretty bland. But it changed frequently throughout the run as far as I could see. It turned more and more Demon Hunter-y as time went on, I guess fitting with the theme. It just so happens that there isn't an interesting variety of Demon Hunter cards in the game right now, they're all pretty...functional, I guess.

Illidan normally bothers the poo poo out of me, but "I was imprisoned for 10,000 years while my brother TOOK A NAP" is a solid line

BIG HEADLINE posted:So it gets *harder* than Kanrethad Prime. Cool. You might just need to go face more. I beat him on turn 9 first try so he couldn't even use his hero power. These decks are wonky though so I admit I could have just had a good draw. Shahraz or however you spell it was probably the hardest fight. You have to fight really hard for the board in that one. Lightning naga is a complete crapshoot and took me the longest amount of time just because of the bullshit she can pull off.

The fact that they switched away from the Dungeon Run format shut down any motivation I had left to keep tabs on this game. I craved exactly one flavor of roguelite deckbuilder and late-model/LoV buckwild-style Dungeon Run was it.

It's definitely a draw issue, plus whether or not he gets super lucky with the "draw three and insta-summon any minions" card. The deck they give you is just too light on AoE clears to get through those 5/5 lifesteals and taunts quickly and effectively.

So here's the image you get for completing the story (it's not really worth a spoiler): Sharing because it's incredibly jarring that this is the reward you get while Illidan and Aranna are making bad love rhymes at each-other. Also the image is in the same style as previous promotion posters and as far as I know this is the first time its been publicly released (here's the RoS' poster for comparison, also the AoS poster that's been used up until now for contrast). I'd be fascinated to find out the development of AoO. Guess this is but between this and the trailer song, I'm thinking DH's were a late addition to AoS that overtook the sets' initial focus.

the problem every single single-player adventure has is unskippable dialogue like I can kind of see why they want you to sit through it the first time but there's literally no reason I shouldn't be able to skip the exact same voice lines after that

I unironcially did. I never was a fan of Illidan despite following warcraft lore for many years, he was annoying in every book, in warcraft, in wow and most definitely here. The voice lines are annoying as hell, especially the fact that he can't say hello properly and mumbles about some evil poo poo instead and getting a skin for this travesty of a character with proper voice lines was something I was really looking forward to. If they changed it now I will rage and will make sure that VENGEANCE IS MINE!!

More likely the amount of work involved in adding another class took up the budget for really creating an adventure up to scale with the others.

BIG HEADLINE posted:Okay, so is the Kanrethad Prime PvE boss supposed to suck until next week, because *gently caress* that noise. Agreed, this boss is such bullshit. Every single game he's played the Draw 3, summon any minion drawn and gets like a 5/7 taunt, a big rush card, and the one demon that discounts a card in his hand every turn. And I get mostly basic Hunter/Rogue cards to deal with that? Maybe, just maybe I can get a mildly overpowered card (IF it's in Outcast position)? gently caress that indeed. Oh, and sometimes he does that twice in a row. Gully Foyle fucked around with this message at 13:53 on Jun 18, 2020 |
