mount offer to play Hearthstone

[unknown]

Just awareness to mount freaks who maybe didn't get the promotion email
hohum to me, now if it actually acted as an extra hearthstone as well...
What would be 'a sense of anxiety about embarking on a new game or a
radically changed game', Battle.net fatigue?*
I am starting to get that.
* not just blizz, but it works :-)

I don't know if this could apply to people who already played
Hearthstone, it does read that way


"Get a FREE World of Warcraft Flying Mount When You Try Hearthstone
The magnificent Hearthsteed mount is yours for the taking!

Just win three games of Hearthstone in "Play" or "Arena" mode to earn
the "Mount Up!" Hearthstone quest reward. Once that's done, the
Hearthsteed will be waiting for you in your in-game mail the next time
you log in to World of Warcraft."

It does indeed apply, I got my mount the day that offer came out; it's
an offer to go with Hearthstone leaving beta and becoming properly
released game :-)

For those who haven't tried it, it's a fun game, there's a bit of a
learning curve at first, but you can practice against NPCs before
trying actual players, and it *does* have matchmaking which should
after a while put you against easier opponents. Doesn't always work
out evenly matched, but mostly it's good enough lol. I've had a lot of
fun in that game, really enjoy it as something different to the normal
kind of games I play.

I don't know where they are in lore but they do seem to be more of a
basic 'unstick' option in initial game design. Many games don't limit
hearths, treating them as flightpaths/portals to any inn-type waypoint
you have visited.
I expect wow will get unlimited hearths sometime and flightpaths will go
away, or maybe just waypoint autopilot on your flying mounts. It depends
if they want to keep the timesinks going.

I can see why they do it, many games without timesinks burn out
content quickly. Maybe taking only the best things from other games
isn't the best long term strategy.

The iPad is the only way to play it.
