If you are upset at the Epic Games Store, please take a look at the people around you. Notice the brigading, the vitriol, the death threats in PMs. Notice the absolute shit storm anyone who announces they are releasing on the platform is subject to. And then realize that just because you, personally, may not be…

Thank you, not just for reporting this story, but CONTINUING to report on it. It’s really, really valuable that there be actual followup keeping it in the public eye. 

“While of course I don’t agree with harassment, I also have a problem with [thing which is, at worst, a trivial inconvenience to me]. If [game company] were more communicative/transparent/responsive to their customers and less lazy/entitled/politically charged, this wouldn’t even be an issue.

It’s set on Earth, among human beings, with recognizable nationalities and at least some kind of approximation of Earth’s history. But, much more importantly, it’s a story being told BY people from our Earth, TO people from our Earth. it’s not inappropriate to apply a critical lens to stories just because there are…

Scream is a generally stronger card though, but given that it's probably the best board clear in the history of the game there's a lot of room for things to be worse than…

That’s what I was saying! All the Warlock discard minions are very demony, not humanoid. And the aggressive posture is much better for an aggressive minion.

I mean, this is also an online which continually changes over time. Going back to change old assets that no longer fit your new design guidelines is pretty normal.

The new ones are also just BETTER. except the new Succubus, it's pretty bland, but it actually makes a lot more sense thematically because most of the Warlock discard minions have been demons. I just want a better color pallette.

The only one of the “sexy” change which is notably worse, IMO, is the change to Succubus. I don’t mind replacing the card theme, and in fact given that most of the “discard a card” minions have a much more demonic theme it makes a lot of sense (Lakkari Felhound, Howlfiend, Doomguard). However I must say that the…
