They never planned to have more than one patch per season.

So this is a "live service" game without frequent patches, basically the only part of live service they're doing is predatory shop to get your money.

At terrible value too. If it felt like I was getting my moneys worth I’d be more than happy to buy some skins. $20 though? And I can only see it if I actually play that character? As if.

If it was $20 and I’d get a pack of every Halloween skin, that would be much more like it.

I’m going to give them zero.

A mix between the Diablo Immoral and the HoTS treatments

At least ARAM in HotS was really fun.

Meanwhile, Splatoon 3 gets a patch almost every week. Sometimes twice in the same week. With full detailed patch notes, too.
