Hearthstone just finished rolling out all of the wings of its first solo adventure, Curse of Naxxramas, which by Dodds' account was incredibly well received by the playerbase. The second week of the adventure's release was one of the game's best-selling so far.
But instead of following it up with another solo adventure pack,
the team is working on a proper expansion with a new type of pack, over 100 additional cards, and a bigger impact on the game.
Comments
The expansion was very well done and the cards offer a couple of interesting new strategies if you set aside the inherited randomness of card games like this.

I liked the adventure style of Naxx and i am a little sad that the next expansion will be just "buy more packs to get all rares!" like all other TCGs.
The few cards they added were pretty decent but as a whole not even close to the year's wait.
They are so far away from getting the game to where it needs to be it makes me /sigh.I stopped playing for two months then i just recently played 3 games and got bored again even after winning all 3 games.
There is no definitive lore to each class aside from perhaps Hunter with it's beasts.
Then we have Blizzard they are the culprit that makes me shake my head in disbelief.They seem to always nerf what the immature kids are whining about,it tells me Blizzard team does not have a clue how to run this game.
Next is the Leeroy nerf a card that EVERY class could use so why the nerf is beyond me.They had Miracle Rogue dominating 2-4 seasons in a row yet never touch that class.Seems it is not ok to Buzzard beasts for cards but it is ok to conceal a Gadgetzan and use the 6 cards that can be played for FREE to draw cards.Not only does a backstab kill a 2 hp creature for FREE it also draws a card from the gadgetzan.../sigh ...wake up Blizzard get a clue.
SO now they add cards that aside from LoatheB that do very little to change the meta game,still no multiplayer,still no LORE per class ,Miracle Rogue still plays itself and is not affected by opponents and still 12-14 year kids in chat crying HUNTARD NERF HUNTARD !!.Blizzard creates this type of atmosphere because the way they operate /handle games is amateur hour.
I want to see Hunter getting a pack of Wolf cards or Bears or well you know.I want to see Druids getting Nature cards ,maybe Birds Bees,trees ect ect.Warlock gaining more Zombie or Undead instead Warlock is used only as a ZOO deck and handlock deck because of it's Hero power card draws.
Remember mtg and having Bird decks,Angel decks,Soldier Decks,Undead decks,Mage decks,Goblin decks,TOG decks ect ect ect,it just seems HS is so far behind the times by not creating better Themed decks.ZOO is not a theme aside from just a bunch of low cost cards and original Hunter rush decks were running Wolfrider and Arcane Golem and Leeroy not even beasts as well as Leper Gnomes,again not beasts and Jugglers again not beasts..../sigh.Blizzard WAKE UP.
Good POSITIVE news one my favorite players of all time REALZ a really smart person in general was hired by HS/Blizzard to help in the direction of the game.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
