    The monetary voracity with which this game has been conceived is unprecedented.

    Shame on Blizzard for making a pay to win cross platform game! You had an opportunity to link everyone together, on a franchise that is beloved. Good job flushing it down the toilet. Mobile gaming is a sh*t show because of pay to win, we don’t want it. We refuse to play it. It is not supported by real gamers. Do better.

    This game is a crap. P2W forcing you from each side. For me personally Blizzard is a nothing on game market.

    Sadly I cannot give this a -10, absolute garbage, even for a mobile game its horrible garbage. The uberly aggressive monetisation is disgusting. Actizzard has no respect for their customers.
    Movement is artificial, you can only walk where devs let you, in this game you are relegated to being a monkey that is to follow on screen instructions

    Ruined game. Was bad enough that it was released on mobile, the microtransactions and pay-to-win elements make it so bad that it deserves this review bombing. Garbage.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. They could've sold us items to increase drop rates.

    They could've sold us items to reroll stats on gear.

    They could've sold us random gear loot boxes.

    They could've made it a small subscription service.

    No what they are selling is the only way to actually power up and get stronger end game. This game is seriously pay to win.

    What they did was sold out, and it could've been an awesome game. awesome game. Skip this one before you spend money not worth giving to this predatory company.

    No doubt that blizzard tries to get a complete new fanbase of grind and paytowin zombies. This is complete in the wrong direction what a diablo should be. It should not build with "we need the last cent from the player" in mind. Money is needed but not in this blatant way - WHY?=!

    The gameplay is alright, and probably would warrant a 7 or so, but it's all thrown away by the awful monetization.

    Basically a slot machine skinned as an action RPG. Actually, if you feed coins to a slot machine, you do have a chance, however slight, to actually win some money back. But with this "game", your money is gone, forever. Play path of exile instead for an ethical free to play experience.

    From gameplay perspective its good game - 6/10 or so for story, gameplay, but its Pay to Win in worst possible front.. You can gain same progress by money, as for months of gameplay. Microtransaction for anything that cosmetics is pure evil.
    I got without any payment to 60/+40 paragon level and still can slowly continue, but you can still keep up without paying with paying player you

    All broken through overpowered legendary gems and their resonance atribute, and they could be gain quickly through buying legendary crest which are simply lootboxes... which are working through some legal loophole.. because there is very small gameplay sequence connected to open them.

    Lets start saying, the game itself is ok. Is not "great" or revolutionary as some says, its your typical mobile MMO. Ok-ish graphics (there are similar game with much better ones) and the usual controls, with a joypad at left and action buttons on right.

    Basically its another "clone" of thousands of MMOs out there available for your phone. This one just has the "Diablo" brand on it.

    Basically its another "clone" of thousands of MMOs out there available for your phone. This one just has the "Diablo" brand on it.

    Based on that the game could easily get a 6/10, being a decent, yet generic, phone MMO.

    But things completely crash down when you realize the absolutely insane monetization on the game. All this kind of games (usually korean MMOs) has an agressive P2W.

    But Diablo Immortal takes EVERY SINGLE PW2 mechanic and use every psychological bias to get the money out of you. It´s absolutely impossible keep progressing past certain power level without pushing money into it. And a lot of money.

    Keep in mind, this kind of game (ARPG) is heavily focused on your character progression as the main goal. Is not like you can play casually for free and have a nice free (or low-cost) experience, with just some ocassional purchase here and there. No.

    If you want to just "properly play" without getting stuck, regular purchases will be mandatory as part of the game itself. They Payed content is hardly embebed to the gameplay.

    Ofc, it uses lots of cheap tactics to get you into it. "Special premium offers" of negligible cost, to break the initial barrier of making a purchase, giving you just slighty less gems than needed for the most usual purchases, or trick you with the typical "Pay some more but get MUCH more pack", etc.

    Its a game designed for heavy whaling. Nothing really new, except for this time being an important and renowned company with a well-known IP who is pushing it, instead of some usual P2W publisher... And also, the fact they are going heavier than most already very agressive P2W games out there.

    Diablo immortal is not a game but a money making machine from the most cruel company that ruined our childhood memories of the best franchises in existence. The amount of money you have to spend to grind your way to the top as per calculations is near 110 000 $ guys. I can buy myself a house for that money in Bulgaria and yes some of you will say you are not obligated to pay, that is trueDiablo immortal is not a game but a money making machine from the most cruel company that ruined our childhood memories of the best franchises in existence.

I have it a try on both PC and mobile and now it’s uninstalled everywhere.
    If you want similar games try games like Grim Dawn, Van Helsing, Victor Vran, Torchlight 1 and 2, Last Epoch and even for the most competitive PoE. Hell I’d even prefer Diablo 3 over this. Thank you guys!

    Lootboxes should be banned from games. Diablo Immortal is no exception as it is merely an empty shell disguised as a "pretty" game to make you spend money again and again until you're broke. Please don't fall for it, by leaving a positive a review, you're just comforting producers in their bad intentions ...

    Set a predefined max time youll play it, eg. 10hours and then you uninstall and NEVER touch it again, then you'll be fine.
    Everything after that is the worst kind of #scamware imaginable.
    Seriously, exploiting junkies like that. Had it been any other industry, theese people would be behind bars.

    What might have been a fun game has been absolutely DROWNED with the most disgusting, predatory monetization scheme ever seen in a game. This goes far beyond just loot boxes and gambling, this is menacing. Avoid this game, make sure your friends and family avoids this game.

    so i want to say that the game itself is brilliant. arguably one of the best on mobile and its good that they decided to also make it pc with crossplay/cross progression cos it feels nice on pc too.

    literally the only thing that hugely lets this down is how blatantly greedy blizzard execs show themselves to be with this pay to win model. and saying it isn't pay to win because you don't buy gear. come on guys. gems are part of gear and you've made them more important than ever in this game. gems inside gems inside gems that would take YEARS to max out without spending money.

    how the mighty have fallen.

    I'm bothered by the bland story of the world's destruction, which was vehemently influenced by the online nature and spirit of the game or the inability to change the camera. The game looks and runs very well, and you can also adjust the graphics settings on more powerful devices. I'd leave the disdain for the online elements of Diablo Immortal to the eternally doubting and overlooking, because just as you can recognize a good poem, you can recognize a fundamentally good game.

    To see it submit to mobile gaming's worst tendencies, rather than make any effort to be different, to be better, is galling. It may be flashy and efficient as both a Diablo game and a mobile game, but Immortal offers little that is bold, ambitious or innovative. Instead, its structure and pacing is designed with one goal in mind: to squeeze as much cash out of every player as it can. [Issue#374, p.110]

    It is undeniable that Diablo Immortal's monetization system has problems and makes the more advanced stages of the adventure unpleasant, but the fact remains that the Blizzard title has brought one of the best experiences in the action RPG field to the mobile market, and it really is difficult to find on the App Store and Google Play Store another free to play with such high production values. Diablo Immortal is an excellent pastime for those who want to complete the long cooperative campaign and, above all, could represent the perfect entry point for those who have never approached the series: even without putting their wallet in, in fact, it remains a pleasant adventure to live while waiting for the fourth chapter to make its debut on the shelves.
