Diablo Immortal Unleashed on Mobile and PC

[DeathtoGnomes]

$10 to start a clan

This is acceptable, as long as you dont need other players to initially create one.

So uh, only costs $150K to max out everything

Diablo Immortal report suggests $150,000 cost to max stats - GamesHub

I should hope there are $100+ monthly bonus packs on top of that

Oh man, this franchise gaining this piece of worthless roadkill is just... I don't know. I knew it when they released D3 with RMAH. It had to happen sooner or later. Greed is unstoppable.

Let's pray Microsoft is going to use napalm to weed out the retards sooner rather than later. I mean, this Diablo release has damaged the brand name more than anything the company's ever done. And will continue to do so. Blizzard, relegated to the worst form of P2W you can imagine. Well, alright, they're not running an online casino, but who knows.

Please, Nadella, save those franchises, will you? Don't worry about people, talent has left the company anyway.

I'll just leave this here:

...and as a veteran of D2 and D3, a big part of the joy of the genre was pushing the upgrades as far as you can go.
This predatory F2P bullshit has to go.

It costs £88,000 to fully upgrade your character in Diablo Immortal

It costs £88,000 ($110,000) to fully upgrade a character in Diablo Immortal. That's according to Bellular News (thanks,…

It is truly amazing how much some gamers spend on a single game. Star Citizen is another example with their $27,000 ship bundle.

And here I thought Horse Armor in Oblivion was silly at $2.50 16 years ago.

Yup, that's the exact point when I said "screw it" (the always online requirement didn't help either), even if up to that announcement I could not imagine not getting D3 day 1.

I don't think there's anything left to pray for. The Blizzard that brought us Starcraft and the first two Warcraft and Diablo games has been replaced by a bunch of bean-counters long ago. There's nothing wrong with thinking about your paycheck, I'm just not excited about what such teams release.

 

[HairyLobsters]

I really wish Blizzard spent all this time, effort, and money on developing Diablo 4...A TRUE successor to Diablo 2 in style and mechanics, especially the aesthetic. Diablo 3 was way too heavily influenced by WoW, especially in the visuals e.g. Purple and teal lighting and hues everywhere, soft, over-cartoony style... I'll make an analogy, Diablo 2 is to Diablo 3 as Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is to Wind waker



Well, don't expect America to follow suit, our country's unofficial policy is "whatever's best for corporations..."

D4 is in development, not even the same team. Blizzard didn't develop the majority of the game, the bulk of the game was developed by NetEase in China with the Asian market in mind.

For me the real faux-pas was using Blizzcon 2018 to announce Diablo Immortal to a crowd of PC gaming enthusiasts that were hoping for Diablo IV news.

"Diablo IV is years away" would have been better received than the abysmal announcement of Diablo Immortal. The horrible, predatory F2P extortion of D:I is so bad that "I told you so" doesn't even begin to cover it.

Ever since the Nova DLC dropped for SC2, the RTS genre died.

They kinda came close with their coop options, but then they started spacing out the commanders and making them all individually pay to own, and then the garbage with season passes to get... announcer voice packs and watching live streams early? Once they became activision-blizzard they died a horrible money grubbing death

I noticed that too. Kinda depressing. Would love to see a proper sequel to Command & Conquer Tiberium Wars or Red Alert, perhaps another Star Trek Armada or even Star Wars Empire At War.

Total Annihilation, Supreme Commander, Earth 2150...

I still go back and replay supcom's campaigns (especially FA). Same with company of heroes.

My god, replaying them in 4K or at 165Hz just shows how some game engines aged so freakin well, the ones actually designed for PC that just keep on working decades later when harwdare changes so much

1280x1024 to 3840x2160, 60hz to 165hz - still just works.

 

[trparky]

And here I thought that Star Trek: Online was bad in the P2W category.

To be honest this Diablo Immoral is nice to play on the phone, free as it is. You don't need to pay for anything, unless you are truly a sucker.
As for the PC version, wth bro, couldn't they just add a resolution option? Why is the game stuck on 1080p scaling is beyond my comprehension. Is not like is suck a hassle to implement...

 

[SSGBryan]

Nobody is ever forced. You are missing the point. The point is if it is intrusive. Which it always is.

No, I am not missing the point - yeah it is annoying. So just ignore it; if you are too weak mined to do that, well you aren't prepared to deal with the 21st century.

You cant ignore something that literally blocks you at the end-game, and tells you you cant progress without spending real world money, in a possibly infinite amount


the game waits to see who plays the game long enough to see who would be most likely to pay, and fucks them over

Tbh, this is par for the course when it comes to mobile gaming.

You can, technically, ignore paid for content, but then you become food for spenders.

And that is the definition of predatory. It should be, and perhaps is in some places, criminally illegal.
