Compared to Hearthstone, which was created by the same mother, the compensation of World of Warcraft is too stingy

Recently, with the return of Blizzard games "Hearthstone" and "World of Warcraft" to Chinese servers, players of these two games are experiencing a mixed bag of compensation policies.


According to the compensation content previously released by Hearthstone, all Chinese Hearthstone players can directly obtain all 2,154 cards in 2023, including 97 gold cards!


There are also pass rewards exclusive to the national server, including hero skins, card backs, and coins exclusive to the national server.


Although some Hearthstone players are somewhat dissatisfied with this compensation due to the special nature of the gift card, which cannot be disassembled and can only give one dust after disassembly, but overall, this compensation is very, very generous and can be said to be far beyond expectations.


After the compensation came out, many players expressed their excitement in a humorous way, and some even called Blizzard and NetEase their "godfathers"!


Even foreign players were jealous, saying: It turns out that only Chinese players enjoyed the real Hearthstone 10th anniversary!


If Hearthstone players from foreign servers are mainly envious after seeing the compensation for Hearthstone's return to the Chinese server, then the Chinese server players of World of Warcraft are devastated, because the difference in treatment between the two is really too great!

Let's look at the compensation for the return of "World of Warcraft" Chinese server. To put it simply, the nostalgic server and the official server will each give a mount and a pet, and then give 14 days of free game time. The rest are various gift packs that people spend money on. The main purpose is to compensate for the opportunity to spend money on Leihuo.

First of all, the Merchant Coins. The Chinese server was suspended for 1 and a half years, 18 months, 1000 Merchant Coins per month, a total of 18,000 Merchant Coins. As a result, Leihuo only gave 500 per month, even for 12 months, a total of 6,000, which means that the Chinese server players lost 12,000 Merchant Coins.

The second is the mounts. The two mounts given are the Welcoming Bear and Ash'Ada Dawnbringer. I won't comment on their appearance, but now everyone has one, and their rarity has completely lost its value.


What's even more outrageous is that the Joker transmogrification and Valentine's Day transmogrification sets, which were originally given for free in the monthly merchant store tasks, are actually included in the 888 gift package and you still have to pay to buy them.


↑Especially this clown transformation, it's just a face-to-face taunt↑

After being shut down for a year and a half, Leihuo is not even willing to compensate players for all the content given for free in the monthly merchant station tasks. You should know that Hearthstone gave away all the cards from 2023 for free.


As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison. Hearthstone gives players things that they pay for, while World of Warcraft puts free things into gift packs.

Of course, due to the difference in game attributes, it is normal for the compensation of "World of Warcraft" and "Hearthstone" to be different. The above statement that Blizzard and NetEase are partial to one another in terms of compensation is just a joke. For ordinary gamers like us, it is enough for the game to be able to be launched smoothly after more than 500 days!
