Ofc They would.
That's the whole reason why a spoilt game like D3 wasn't dropped after the initial hatewave.
They made more than enough from the pre-order fanboys (even of those who never played D1/D2 before) to consider salvaging it and getting enough of the fanboys back again to sell them an Addon. (That and their image was on the line for ****ing up so so SO bad)

Or take your precious HS for the matter:
There are a lot of good CCG games on steam for example, you heard of 'em?
Nah, I guess you didn't even bother.

If it wasn't for the Blizzard/Warcraft sticker, no company would have succeded in taking an existing card game and dumbing down it's mechanics to a big chunk of sheer luck (one HELL of attractive point for gamers) so ppl who aren't even smart enough/couldn't even been bothered to play a real CCG/TCG suddenly became all indulged in it.

First thing an objective CCG player thinks after playing HS: "They wanted to make a real Card Game? Why the **** do I need to get blasted with special effects/music and have mini-games on the graphically overloaded board in order to pass time???

HS was never meant to be a real CCG. It's only for those who don't have the time, motivation or brains to play one.

HS is a good APP-Game. And if it wasn't for the Blizz Sticker it would only get as much attention as such (not talking about Flappy Bird here, that ****'s crazy)

In a MOBA game that doesnt offer much content to begin with, quantity (or better: diversity) is quality.

Customization is key. The amount of LoL champ seems ridiculous, but would we say the same about items, the skill tree or runes?
The more you cut those amounts down the more you'll end up with meta-only.

In Beta/early release it was okay not to offer "that" many champs, since nobody really had the knowledge, an extensive wiki or skills to begin with.
But cutting them down to like 50-60 NOW, the whole gameplay would crumble. Everywhere in competition 100% same match-ups and Riot's "If sth. is OP counter it with sth. else" wouldn't work anymore.

The only reason there isn't WAY more new stuff coming out is the amount of work it would involve.

You start your argument with an attack on my credibility...

Want a discussion? Start acting like you're worth my ****ing time.

Your comment has no purpose outside of hating on me. Is this really the sort of example you want to set?
Do you really want others to act the way you are here?

BTT:

It's already announced that they salvaged the PvP part from Titan and made Overwatch out of it.
But why the heck does the Art-Style look like they hired Pixar or Disney? Where's the typical Blizz flair?
Can somebody pls tell me that they're not going for this because Frozen was a box-office hit...

Please try to discuss in a friendly manner and try not to derail the thread by talking about Searz's time :)

Oh, because you know that I have no clue what Caucheka plays and what he doesn't?
Because I don't have him in my Steam friends and chat with him frequently?
That was a logical conclusion on my part from frequent chats with the person, not an obvious attempt at discredit like yours, because you literally have no idea which other card games I've played since I've never posted about that here on Mobafire, which is our only place of contact.

Your entire (first)comment is full of assumptions, fallacies and blatantly false statements.

"HS was never meant to be a real CCG. It's only for those who don't have the time, motivation or brains to play one."
This little snippet contains a pretty obvious use of something called the no true scotsman along with an insult to the playerbase of said game.
This is the second clear use of a fallacy that I've pointed out in that comment alone. Need I go on? I can keep picking your comments apart, because they fall apart real easy..

Please take your time and practice logic when trying to argue, because your comments are a mess.
"Blizzard spoke thus; Thou shalt not BM. And the players replied Nay, I shall Play my hand with Lethal already on the board. And so Blizzard sent unto them this Brawl of Yogg, As a lesson for their sins of Pride and Greed, for he is the Prophet of Madness and RNG. On that day, the tavern descended into an era of chaos and darkness, until the weekend passed and everyone forgot all about it. Amen. Book of SMOrc, Verse 20, Chapter 4." - Feam T

Guys, let's please calm down and keep focus as to what the discussion is about. You can defend your pride all you want in private messages, but please don't cloud out people who want actual discussion about the topic at hand.

Thank you to MissMaw for the signatures!
