by JR Cook - 8 years ago show comments
Senior Game Designer Bed Brode took to YouTube today regarding Hearthstone content cycles on a designer insights vlog. He mostly discusses the team’s philosophy regarding iteration, community perception, and the need for communication. You can find the video and summary below.
Paraphrased notes from designer insight vlog above:
Information lull between expansions and adventure updates is sometimes due to a lack of communication, not lack of work on the game behind the scenes.
Naxxramas should have been announced much closer to release.
The team avoids announcing cool things that are in development or testing until the “time is right” and it will almost certainly make release.
Tavern Brawl helps keep game fresh week to week even without new content updates.
