Loved Hearthstone for the first couple of years until it became more and more pay-to-play.

I haven't had any issues with mine, possibly because I never overclock/overvolt.

It's true that their Windows client was affected, but it's misleading to title this issue a "worldwide Windows outage".

I've been an early adopter of every Windows version since 2.0 - except Windows ME and Windows 11. W11 removed very useful Start menu features and replaced it with a Fisher-Price dumbed-down smartphone menu, complete with extra advertising. No thanks.

I also did the 520/1040/Mega progression, although I skipped the Falcon.
Also fondly remembering my first hard drive, which was a pizza-box Megafile 30 (oooOOOooo! 30 whole megabytes!).

This looks like a great multiplayer party game:

Awful peformance on PC. Shader compilation stutter, frame pacing issues, and low sub 60 fps on PC.

No Start menu icon groups or folders. For those of us with a multi-use PC (in my case it's schematic design and printed circuit board layout, video and audio production, photography, gaming), removing those Start menu organizational features would have a real impact.

Windows 10 doesn't force people to use those organizing methods - it's idiocy to remove them as a choice.

I've installed every version of Windows (from 2.0 to 10) on or before release day with the exception of Windows Me... but Windows 11 will also be a pass until they restore removed features that are very important to my workflow...

Win 11 doesn't currently appear to have anything analogous to Win 10's Start Menu tile groups.
I don't use live tiles, but I do use Win 10's tile groups extensively. My PC "wears a lot of hats" since it's used for work (electronic schematic / PCB CAD, FPGA firmware, utilities), photography, music recording, and gaming. All the program shortcuts for the above are nicely grouped tiles in the Start Menu.
