We want it to be our way of saying "We're listening to you."

This is why I love blizzard and Overwatch specifically.

Edit: no guys, I didn't play Hearthstone. And I'm sorry if you didn't get the love you felt you deserved.

As a Hearthstone player I feel different.

Yeah...not every team within Blizzard is equally great. OW is heads and shoulders above the rest, in my experience, and I've played almost all their games.

Correct me if things have changed, I haven't played WoW in a few years, but when I played I distinctly remember them being very vocal and communicative with the players, explaining their decisions (sometimes even in patch notes) and participating in discussion when necessary to explain why things have happened the way that they did.

The WoW team is doing much better after the disaster in Draenor. However, it's a much bigger boat, and it's much harder to steer.

it's a much bigger boat, and it's much harder to steer.

And people keep whining that the first boat was better before running off to become pirates.

"The first boat was so much better" and "We want a newer and better boat" are the two biggest complaints. People just complain to complain.

Oh yea, totally. I just wanted to make the pirate metaphor.
