    What the hell happened to blizzard, the past recent years have been a lesson on how to destroy your reputation in this industry, bad game, bad company.

    Diablo Immortal uses many, if not all and more, of the most blatant and egregious monetization practices to extract money from the you. It is an embarrassment that this game left development with the way it is currently monetized.

    Unfortunately, Blizzard is merely a shadow of its former self. This title has proven that the corporation favors predatory practices and P2W and is no longer the Blizz we grew up with. This **** is disappointing.

    I play about 5-7 hours a day. Paragon 23 and I have had a blast. My gripe is that the gap of power due to it's transaction system is killing it for me. I am f2p. I have not spent a dime and I am grateful for a free, fun mobile game. I am sad that this will eventually edge those like me out of the game and pvp.

I just get my dailies and grind for a win or two for Aspirant keys...Bottom line is the further you progress the taller the free wall is and I suggest when you take the fun you can and dip when you feel stagnant in growth. Also, I am terrified D4 will follow this trend. I love Diablo. This is not what I love. Expand

    I am not supporting Blizzard's sacrifizing of the Diablo brand for a quick cash grab. This game is atrocious with all the ways it tries to manipulate its players to spend thousands of cash. Imagine you being a parent of a child that spends all their allowance to play this Diablo casino game

    **** P2W trainwreck. It's pretty much a gem gacha game slapped with a Diablo label. The old charm of dungeon running, hunting bosses, and getting cool loot is lost now that you have to pay for everything. Whoever designed this stupid gemception feature should be hung up, shot, gutted, quartered, and run over by a Buick. Slotting gems on gems? Gems better than actual equipment? Lame AF.**** P2W trainwreck. It's pretty much a gem gacha game slapped with a Diablo label.

    P2W is cancer, corruption, and theft in broad daylight that must be CUT OUT.
    Those who disagree are either donkeys born with phones who don't know better or corporate greed rotten **** bags without any sense of integrity or morals (or any meaningful values for that matter).
    The game itself is 5/10, with potential heavily drawn back by being designed with a predatory money-first

    The game itself is 5/10, with potential heavily drawn back by being designed with a predatory money-first mindset. Even in early levels, they attempt to addict the meek and easily manipulated players by main story level gating to do meaningless chores for miniature upgrades (or waste thousands $ for the normal gaming experience, obviously). Not even worth the bother for the main story, as that's also ridiculously stretched out being miles wide, but barely an inch in-depth, and later on it takes ~6mins before hitting yet another level gate. Jesus Christ.
    It's a DISGRACE TO GAMING
    Don't waste your life.

    The game is quite enjoyable at first glance, but due to predatory monetization it cannot be rated higher than 0. It's a pity because I have been a fan of the Diablo series since the first game in 1997. Hopefully more countries will enact laws banning gaming machines devouring your money under the guise of gaming.

    Crashed while creating character. Not a clean port to PC. I hate games that require online connections and this one requires it so they can ensure any fun you have costs $$$.

    Don't play this, and for the love of god don't spend money on it.
    If this thing turns out profitable, and by the looks of it its already are, we have no hope for a good diablo game.

    Blizzard: How much money do you want to take from the players?
    Activation: yes
    Furthermore: graphic bugs, sound bugs, latency issues, hidden limits of rewarding enemies and F2P gets less than nothing.

    P2W, yea yea yea... not even gonna mention about that because enough is enough.

    I loved it.

    But, that's all I could love about this game. Campaign was good and fun. I leveled up to 60. And then I lost the interest playing the game.

    Here is why
    1. [No innovative game play] I started feeling like it's just as same Diablo II and III. Rifts and instances looked the same. Game play is... pretty much the same as D3... got bored so fast.

    2. [No New Character] All same characters with very similar skills. Come on, there are many of us who's been playing Diablo for at least 10+ years. I am not interested playing the same Diablo with better graphics, I want to experience new & improved game play & characters.

    If I were a Diablo game developer, I would've added World of Warcraft into Diablo,

    I played about 2 weeks now.... and I am going to stop playing.

    While the port works, the controls are not meant for pc, so it's really clunky on mouse+keyboard, and the controller support is again, technically works. Here is the end of the good stuff.

The p2w aspect is just plain ridiculous. It's one of the most predatory monetization I've looked at. For a gacha game, it's not too bad actually, but when I want to play diablo, I want to play a challenging arpg/hack&slash. Expand

    Diablo has always been a series that held a special place in the hearts of gamers. With its dark atmosphere, compelling storyline, and addictive gameplay, it had once set the gold standard for the ARPG (Action Role Playing Game) genre.

With its dark atmosphere, compelling storyline, and addictive gameplay, it had once set the gold standard for the ARPG (Action Role Playing Game) genre. But with the announcement and subsequent release of Diablo Immortal, Blizzard appears to have taken a turn that many of its long-time fans view with skepticism.

    Unwanted Platform Shift:
    The most glaring issue isn't necessarily with the game itself, but with Blizzard's decision to bring Diablo to mobile. While there is nothing inherently wrong with mobile gaming, the platform shift from PC/console to mobile was unexpected and not entirely welcome. Many felt that it diminished the depth and richness that the Diablo series is known for.

    Monetization Over Mechanics:
    Diablo Immortal seems to lean heavily into microtransactions. While this is a staple in many mobile games, the intrusive nature of these monetization mechanics in a franchise known for its deep, uninterrupted gameplay is alarming. It feels less like a game designed for fun and more like a vehicle to extract money from its players.

    Psychological Manipulation:
    The incorporation of 'gacha' mechanics, timed rewards, and other psychologically manipulative techniques casts a shadow over Blizzard's intentions. While these strategies are effective in retaining players and encouraging in-game purchases, they can often detract from genuine gameplay enjoyment.

    A Disconnect with the Fanbase:
    Blizzard's dismissive response to fans' backlash — the infamous "Do you guys not have phones?" remark — only added fuel to the fire. Instead of acknowledging fan concerns, it felt like the company was out of touch with its core audience.

    Graphics and Gameplay:
    On a positive note, the graphics and fluidity of gameplay on mobile devices are commendable. For those new to the Diablo franchise or those without prior expectations, Diablo Immortal can be a fun experience. But for dedicated fans, it might feel like a watered-down version of the beloved series.

    In conclusion, while Diablo Immortal might find a niche among some mobile gamers, it feels like a misstep for Blizzard in understanding what their long-time fans desired. The shift to a mobile platform and the heavy focus on monetization raises concerns about the future direction of the company and its commitment to player satisfaction over profits.

    I was almost tempted to give a 1/10 for the effort of making a PC port but the evil and predatory monetization which is designed to pray on individuals prone to addiction is just too strong.
    Don't play this and give it a 0. We need to discourage this behavior.

    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.
