Diablo Immortal (Mobile) Announced
- Thread starter Strakt
- Start date
Very curious about this as well, also do they ever end up releasing these talks like way after blizzcon, or are they paywalled forever? Want to see the Grubby War3 Reforged panel.
While RoS dod help the game a lot, there wasent much replayability since everything was just handed out to you.
I've never played an A-RPG on mobile where the controls didn't feel clunky and unnatural. Touch screens aren't designed for that type of quick trigger response imo
I'm not a die-hard Diablo fan but if this means we get more real games on mobile I'm all for it

Bountys, Rifts and Adventure Mode is basically infinite replayability. Though lord does it get stale after a while.
Because the extremity of the reaction is absurd. "I'm excited!" Is a positive, inclusive, fun way to bond. "This company just murdered my dreams by making a game I didn't tell them to make and I didn't play yet" is speculative, negative and uninformed.
The game may yet be terrible, but the baseline here is absurd.
You don't get to make arguments with a logical statement and then try and compare it to a hyperbole. The criticism of this announcement is completely fair. If Bethesda had closed their press conference this year with 'Blades,' that would've caused an uproar. These company throws these events because they want to excite their fanbase.

They are removing dislikes

It's a video game. Full stop. People are acting like Blizzard burned their house down. I've been playing games since the C64 days and moments like this make me ashamed to be a gamer.
Ya'll don't need to play this game! It is not compulsory! I love Diablo, also. I will probably not play this phone game. I do not feel the need to wail about it.
It's is hyperbole. It's the very definition of hyperbole and it's damaging, negative, exclusive and exhausting.
This is legitimately great to see, and I'm glad to see PoE is getting a boon out of this. Great game that deserves more recognition tbqh.
What I'm saying is, there's plenty of people out there with negative criticism that isn't a hyperbole and I think it's within their rights to show disappointment.
I don't condone any threats to anyone's lives but for the most part, what I'm seeing out there is a passionate fanbase responding the way a fanbase would if the company produces something that shows a complete disconnect with what the audience wants. I don't think they should sit down and quietly take it. I think they deserve to let their voices be heard.
I don't think blizzard has the ability to remove dislikes. However I'm quite sure the YouTube algorithm removes likes or dislikes it views as erroneous. Which means either the person didn't watch much of the video or it thinks someone is view/like botting. This more has to do with YouTube than some weird ability for blizzard to remove liked.
If anything it shows how strong the hate is that's YouTube thinks it's irregular and the system catches it.

Making the blanket statement that "people are acting like Blizzard burned their house down" is hyperbole. There may be some trolls in YT comments or on twitter that take things too far, but that's not unique to the gamer demographic or to this particular situation. All I've seen here is legitimate criticism of the extremely tone deaf way in which Blizzard handled this announcement.
It was still an excellent expansion and the biggest reason people turned around on it.
Yes lots of peoples were, like mine. This is YouTube's algorithm. It gets even worse in this case, which shows how bad the hate is for the game. Blizzard doesent have the ability to remove dislikes themselves.
Apparently this is even happening with people who watched the whole video and registered a dislike.
I see. Yea that's pretty shitty for them to build hype around a mobile game like that.
