If you normally buy packs for money it's decent. You're getting a good number of packs and then 6 months free of WoW with the 6 month sub mount as well.
If you play both you're making out fairly well.

The Hearthstone specific mount doesn't require a sub, just completion of the tutorial in the new HS game mode in October.
Uh oh....will new patches and expansions be replaced by new monthly store items ? Oh I wonder
Blizzard: We gave everyone 100,000 free gold, once per account.
MMO-C: ERMERGERRRRRRRRRRRRD WRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH MAU MANIPULATIONS! BOBBY KOTICK BAD! ACTIVISION IS EVIL!
I swear you all would complain about getting a 1000 dollar stimulus check in the mail from the government.

Most people here aren't actually complaining, they're just calling this whole promotion sad and pathetic (which let's be honest, it is. Especially how they shoved the 6 months sub promotion along with it)

The only time in my entire life i have spent money for cards was when i was at the elementary school with Pokemon, but i never really got into the game itself, i collected some Yugioh cards as well but my collection was nowhere near the Pokemon one i had. I guess i got lucky that i never found the bane that Magic the Gathering was but still i was not fascinated in playing with those cards.
Therefore, i never found Hearthstone appealing, i think i have played maximum an hour just to try and see what's all about. Pokemon was something unique and i really liked it back then and i still like it now but i am glad i was never into any card game because from what i am reading its entirety is based around grabbing your money and go.
Damn, I'd hate to run into some of you guys at the grocery store. Woe unto whoever offers you free samples or has weekly "BOGO FREE" deals, for surely, they are all desperately clawing at your money and deserve naught but endless berating.
Truly, Blizzard should just do nothing at all. At least the complaints that they never do promotions were more sparse.
Oh, oh man.
I'm not gonna deny MtG has some pricey cards and can be a money sink. But it doesn't even come close to Pokemon in that regard. Part of the reason why it's so hard to find Pokemon packs nowadays, but MtG is everywhere.
That being said, Hearthstone's modes outside of Ranked basic play are pretty good at being completely free. Like Battlegrounds doesn't require well, any cards.

the desperation must be really big
To be fair guys, people should know when to cut a bit of slack. I might get a bit of stink eye for it, but for real tho.
I know I was hoping for more positive news and vibes. We don't really gotta complain about a free mount for an incentive to try a trial of another one of their IPs. It is a free mount. (From my understanding.. someone could correct me if I am wrong..) They gave 9.1.5 information, I'm still a bit concerned that Nightbornes will not be fixed properly but I have expressed this enough. Still it's information on a new patch. People were complaining about lack of communication from the team. They gave feedback on some bug fixes they did, also seen a message to the community. Looks like I been seeing a lot of TBC communication too.
Summarized:
- Free mount
- Future content
- Communication from team
- Communication from TBCC team.
- Displaying good nature towards the community
I understand where people are coming from and they feel a lot of things should've been addressed... a long time ago. I feel this way about certain things too. Just let's not discourage when they are trying to make an effort in various ways to try and appease the community. As some of these things may stop. Compared to what I been seeing the past couple of weeks from both sides.. I personally prefer a more friendly and engaging environment.
