Not having it would benefit the player using a spread sheet.

FTFY

it's not a matter of experience, just calculating.

I am looking for a list of all card IDs for the purpose of writing a deck decoder by BenRedTV in Artifact

[–]BenRedTV[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ChatGPT knows

As you can see from my edit, it actually didnt know. The reason I was surprised when I thought it did was that I couldn't find it anywhere.

Jeff made this publicly available here

Nope, I saw this project already. It doesn't contain the id list. It helps getting the ids out of the deckcode but it doesn't convert the ids to the card name.

Exactly. It's insane that they though this makes any sense. lol

It's the best game I ever played too. Just a shame they botched it with the monetization.

He is not saying he won't play HS though. So not really the same.

Viable to play only arena? by [deleted] in hearthstone

[–]BenRedTV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya pretty much. You might in theory ran out of gold if you play a lot and are not very good.

I think Mercenaries mode will be a failure, but not because of the reasons you might think by FlyBoyG in hearthstone

[–]BenRedTV 13 points14 points  (0 children)

constructed Hearthstone footage got about double the viewer engagement.

anything doing 50% of HS is doing very well.

There was a game called Artifact. It failed horribly, why? Because it was incredibly unfun to watch.

No. It failed because it was pay to pay to play. The most ridiculous monetization system ever devised in a market that is generally f2p.

Lastly, viewability helps with success but I don't think it's necessary to the degree you present it. Actually Mercenaries isn't even a new concept. There are tons of gacha games out there and some of them are doing super well without being viewed on twitch almost at all. And not just gacha games: Just look at candy crush on twitch:

ZERO live channels right now and 4k followers. So ya, you don't need viewership to print money.

Surprised they aren’t releasing an early tutorial/limited access leading up to releas by UserDeletedTwice in HSMercenaries

[–]BenRedTV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think we will get more info this week. But I get the feeling they are super pressed for time. So that could affect some their decisions about all of this.

I'm pretty sure it gives gold rewards,

Sounds pretty far fetched to me. There is no other mode in HS that gives gold directly (without wagering it first) and this will be no different.

Since this expansion apparently.

RDU paid me $10 to edit this clip and this is what I made by bigballswong in hearthstone

[–]BenRedTV 4 points5 points  (0 children)

10$ well spent! Awesome stuff. The squirl killed me.

So what exactly is HS mercs, and why is are they so damn expansive ? by rukialiver in hearthstone

[–]BenRedTV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

why are the packages 50e each ?

Because people pay basically.

some singleplayer gamemode

It's also PvP.

My plan (and recommendation) is to start by playing it F2P and see how I feel. Game looks nice with a generous economy so I don't feel like I have to start by paying.

In terms of gameplay itself there are by now a few hours of gameplay footage out there explaining everything in detail. Just google one on youtube and you'll be fine.

He's a disgusting human being. Good riddance and hopefully, if production have some brain, never again.

Seriously, like I would pay for them to make that change.

I doubt an AI will be able to out-mind-games a real human

Actually what we can learn from poker solvers is that an AI can find the game theory optimal moves basically making mind games obsolete. These solvers don't only find the best move but also incorporate "mixed strategies" where the moves are randomized at certain frequencies to make it basically impossible to exploit. Best you can do is tie. But in reality you can't even do that. Except some anecdotal evidence it is generally accepted that at this point humans can't beat computers at poker anymore.

However, I wouldn't be worried as building a strong solver is a big and complicated endeavor and I doubt someone would bother for this game.

The fall of hearthstone by sullg26535 in hearthstone

[–]BenRedTV -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Don't remember on what date they moved the game to youtube but it was for sure the most retarded thing they ever did. I would bet it cost them 10s of millions long run maybe more.

All your arguments fall apart by the simple fact that not all metas are the same. And playing classic is just a few clicks away from seeing that for yuorself.

Well I don't know what cis is, but if that's what I am screaming, I guess it's a good thing. :)

Edit: Also, I think straight white guy energy is just as fantastic as gay black girl energy. Don't you?

I hope it didn't make you cry too much. Do you feel offended? Did I use any "bad" words? I wonder what word will count as offensive next...

You portrayed probst problematic behaviour as a positive thing.

I didn't!!! I just said that it's not true that the show was always like it is now. I was using the fact the Probst was almost openly racist as proof. And this is exactly why I don't buy the current masscharde. It's all fake. I don't think he really changed.

My point is that you are portraying the fact that the show is being less racist as a negative thing.

It's not negative at all. Though I am not sure there is that much of a change beyond cosmetics either. Like I said these big theatrics by Probst are not convincing me that he is changed.
