    Gameplay is not bad Diablo 3 on phone, but Pay to Win is pure evil.. same as not possible to disable zillions on notifications and reward just for sing into game.

    It's a decent game, held back by greedy, exploitative monetization. What a shame.

    Ok so I can understand why people is so mad at this gamee because it makes you pay money to thee game , it is hard if you don't pay money. But its not necessary. Even if you don't pay money to the game , it is fun to play. Even if it is a little exaggerated.

    No doubt, the mircotansactions are straight from hell. There is VERY CLEARLY a level curve that pushes you to buying orbs and crap.
    Its a free to play game. I do expect my self to toss a few bucks at F2P games.

    The cash-grab mobile we all expected. In fact we all thought it would be much worse, but instead it is decent and remains a free way to approach Diablo without spending a penny. If you like it, you can deepen the experience by enjoying the previous three chapters of the saga (instead of throwing money at a bottomless, endless p2w mechanic, typical of most mobile games.)

    The hatred towards this game is weird. I grew up on D1 + D2: LoD and have put over 300 hours into D3. This is a clone of D3, so apart from a new story don't expect anything ground breaking. The issues of pay to win is real, but it's more to speed you up leveling up. Anyone who has ever but effort into their paragon level on D3 will understand.

When I first tried it I was surprised by how good it actually is, only to then be disappointed again by poor design decisions.

    GOOD

    Some of the new fighting mechanics like auto-attack and move on the same button hold, and attacking while moving work really good on all platforms and I'm sure we will see them more often in the future. The gameplay is generally spot on, as usual in Diablo games.

    They adapted and improved many things from Diablo 3, like rifts. The game works better as an MMO without seasons. Instead, the ladders for the specific content are periodically reset.

    Then there are some nice new clan and faction mechanics in here, like the shadow war that lets players engage in clan battles and it could make for a worthwhile mobile and PC game.

    BAD

    The party finder is terrible. Only two weeks after realease, you often spend more time waiting than playing, because the content is too spread out. The people who implemented this can't do basic math.

    Then there's some UI problems with the party search. It adds players that are either afk or in another area and can't join the quest you are queueing for. So all players are asked to confirm that they're ready and that fails because of those players, and then repeats forever. Players who can't join or refuse to join should be kicked from the group automatically.

    The microtransactions. I don't even mind that much, unless the game throws them in my face all the time. And Diablo Immortal does that by giving me some useless free junk every day to make me pay attention to the store. Guess what - that won't make me buy anything. It's just annoying and makes me dislike the game.

    Unfortunately, Blizzard broke their word and microtransactions can give paying players quite a huge advantage, even though the normal progression as a free to play player generally feels good. I think this will turn out to be a good short term and a very stupid long term decision for them - so exactly what you would expect from game management these days.

    I'd even be happy to spend some dollars on good skins or stash space, but I will out of principle not buy anything in a game when it lets players become stronger through microtransactions.

    VERDICT

    In the end you have a game that could be genuinely good, but a lot of potential is wasted by short-sighted management decisions and Blizzard's reputation will probably suffer from this.    … Expand

    Its all about grind. It may take a little time to farma some gear, but after all we are takling about Diablo. I have to say that the grind Is super fun, with active real-time online community. There are many events and tasks to play, i have Bern playing since release. Still enjoy playing

    Fix the legendary gem monetization and this game is perfect. All other pay systems(Battle Pass, etc) are fine in this game but the legendary gems need some rethinking.

    On the one hand, this game is getting review bombed by a legion... On the other hand, it's not really that great. Mouse controls feel terrible and it's still strangely unresponsive with a controller. The story is not cringe, but it's not captivating either (like Diablo 2's Marius cinematics we're). Itemization is blander than the story. All in all, not horrible, but not good either. ThisOn the one hand, this game is getting review bombed by a legion...

    The amount of people who gave this an 0 out of 10 are literally delusional. This game is "decent" at best, which means it's automatically the best Diablo game built to date.

Soy leyenda 60/9 con nicromante con 50 horas mas que amortizadas por 6 miseros euros que para nada son obligatorios, simplemente he pagado pq el juego me gusta y recompenso a Blizzard por ello y de camino me saco un poco de mejor loot esta temporada.

    Si en un momento me ponen un muro p2w en el PVE (ya sabemos que el PVP es p2w) pues desisntalo y a otra cosa. Para entonces ya habré jugado mucho mas que con cualquier triple A de los de 70€.
    Así que ni tan mal.
    Hay mucho hater amargado echando mierda al juego sin haber realmente escarbado en el mismo y ver por si solos que no es un p2w (pve) ni tan siquiera es un p2fast porque la campaña es la que es y no la haces antes por llevar full legendarios equipados.

    El fallo del juego y que deben arreglar, es la sensación que te da la tienda de tener que pagar hasta por crear un personaje, cuando no es así. Deben de quitar capas al juego y por lo tanto a la tienda. Hay demasiadas capas en la jugabilidad, que si gemas, blasones, varias vendedores, herreros, joyeros, servicios, temporadas, clanes, bandas, reuniones, loterias, runas, oro, platinos, fallas, misiones, es demasiado .... y todo tiene su reflejo en la tienda aunque en la realidad no necesites comprar nada para avanzar si no juegas a tryhardear el personaje.
    El que solo se lo baja, lo prueba y ve todo lo que he dicho se asusta y piensa que o paga o no juega una mierda pero a lo poco que ñe metas unas horas te das cuenta que no es así, y el juego te lo dice a su manera, bueno mas bien no dice nada porque es de los gachas menos invasivos (in game) en cuanto a meterte la tienda cada dos por tres. La puedes ignorar por completo.    … Expand

Builds are simple but effective, there is autorun and autonavigation that kinds makes it feels bad on PC, but you know, it is a standard in mobile games.

    This game obviously lacks customization, has a lot of microtransaction and kinda weird UI for PC ( should have a PC-designed UI with PC resolution, it is just a mobile UI which kinda looks bad on PC).

    So, if you want to push your last sweat to be the best, you will need a lot ot money and this game is rated 0. If you just want to play, it can provide fun and it is rated 7.    … Expand

    I was actually expecting a really bad game, but I had a lot of fun playing it. The gameplay is great (better than Diablo 3), my favorite classes are there, character customization is the better addition here, plus the armor and weapon designs are really interesting. The social features, like raids and such are OK and I didn't even touched the store, which is the biggest flaw in this game.

    It's a great amount of content for a mobile game, and geniuinely a very well made game (if not basically a reimagining of D3). Main negative is the monetization model, and the caps on power and progress if you aren't paying exorbitant amounts.

    Overall, it's 30-50 hours of pretty fun PvE gameplay with an Ok main story and cool bosses until the level cap and almost without any grind (maybe 3-5 hours total only).
    At this point, I'm a casual F2P daily bounty player with 70+ paragon levels and capable of killing raid bosses solo so far at Hell 2 difficulty.

    2 merits I'd like to point out are:
    - The ability to change your class starting from level 35 - 1 time per 24h (gear is swapped to a proper one) with the possibility of reverting if you didn't like it. So no alts are needed, really.
    - You don't need to re-enchant, re-gem your gear when you equip a new piece - the game suggests you to apply all enchants of the previous item to a new one.

    P.S. I guess it's more playable now than on release. Hope this helps you to decide to play.    … Expand

    After the WWII ended, there was a rise of certain phenomena among indigenous population of the Pacific, called “cargo cult”. It feels like the very same cultists were in charge of Diablo Immortal: it has superficial resemblance to the real thing, but it lacks any real substance. [Issue#260, p.36]

    Diablo Immortal is a simplified and more accessible version of the series that can still provide hours of mindless fun and entertainment. Sadly, the games suffers in the long run because of all the tedious grinding and the greedy monetization system, making a game experience that starts as very enjoyable much less so as time goes on.

    Diablo Immortal seems like a project created with the sole purpose of using the good name of Diablo to rub the players of their money. Definitely one of the worst games ever came out of Blizzard.
