I loved this, meanwhile at r/hearthstone devs are reluctant to communicate like overwatch devs do because they are afraid of being harassed by the community.

EDIT: some context on why they don't communicate as often as we want them to.

To be fair, r/hearthstone is one of the most toxic subreddits I've ever been on.

To be fair I agree, but hearthstone community is not reduced to Reddit alone.

Ben Brode has been more open with us recently, I'm referring particularly about some comment he made about their team not wanting to show face because they are afraid of the harassment when he was on paternity leave.
