    Decent gameplay buried beneath a giant stinking pile of anti-consumer, predatory monetization schemes that put your local drug dealer to shame. A disgraceful parade of disrespect towards a loyal fan base of a once great franchise all in the name of extorting as many [insert your local currency here] out of dedicated fans and newcomers to the franchise alike.

    The biggest tragedy is that there's a very playable game hidden behind all of this - but please avoid at all costs to spend any of your heard-earned money in this cesspool of pixels and greed. Since this is the only language game developers we once loved for creating great experiences and memories appear to speak nowadays.    … Expand

I have to login every single day otherwise I'm missing out on rewards. It' frustrating that you're forcing people to play it because they have to, not because they want to.

    You're forcing me to play your game with your daily login system and it's no longer fun! On the contrary it's f***ing stressful! I have to login every single day otherwise I'm missing out on rewards. It' frustrating that you're forcing people to play it because they have to, not because they want to.
    An empowered battle pass and limited time offers, really!?
    Manipulating people with the fear of missing out is genuinely grim. Let's say I'm on vacation and I don't want to engage with my phone or lap top. No you can't, otherwise you're falling behind and you can't catch up, because everything has an expiration date.
    Progression is painfully slow and repetitive unless you have legendary crests which no one does unless you're a whale. You can add 10 legendary crests into a single rift, but you only obtain 1 legendary crest every now and then! This is insane! I'm at the point where I'm grinding 10 hours a day and get the same gear over and over again and I get nothing valuable. In raids and dungeons only the one who kills the boss gets a drop. If you're going to make it like that, at least implement an assist system, so everyone gets rewarded. Gem drops are extremely poor and 5 star legendary gems are impossible to obtain unless you're willing to pay huge amounts of money, which most people don't have. I understand that free to play games are monetised one way or another, but this is infuriating. You blatantly lied that only cosmetics will be acquired through the shop with real money, but that wasn't enough for you, was it?
    I hope Diablo 4 will be a classic diablo game, because this P2W micro transaction s**t killed it for me. I played 1, 2 and still playing Diablo 3, but not this. You tried to kill Diablo 3 with the auction house and thank God that didn't work out. It's so sad that you killed a game I grew up with and so eagerly anticipated. You're business model is disgusting and I can only imagine how you're going to ruin Diablo 4 as well with your never ending greed. I feel sorry for the actual people who worked on the game itself, because you destroyed their brilliant job and you're killing gaming for everyone. I pre-ordered Diablo 4 an year ago, because I wanted to support the company in tough times. I also pre-registered for Immortal an year ago and bought a new phone just to play your mobile version of the game! That's how much faith I had in your company and you literally spat in my face. Not only mine, but all your fans and supporters.    … Expand

    The story is interesting from someone who LOVED diablo 2 as a young teen and also loved D3 as an adult. The voice acting is cool.

    Unfortunately there are some annoying game play features due to the fact that its a mobile port. When you get to the first major town it kinda forces you to go around and talk to all the main npc's. This kind of forced hand holding you wont find in D2 or D3. The player figures it out in their own time. but with mobile games its part of the main quest line to 'go talk to this person' then 'go talk to that person' and you can't move around or to the next part of the quest until you have done this chore. It just feels forced and annoying.

    The monetization is absolutely disgusting, EVEN FOR A MOBILE GAME shieeet. However i get an odd sense of enjoyment out of playing grindy mobile games and not spending a cent. Like, every time I get a pop up for buy something and i press the X out of spite, it just makes me smile haha. You won't get any money from me.

    As a game, I think its a great game. As an example of how far blizzards standards have fallen? Its an absolute shame.    … Expand

    Now the obvious p2s tactics assice, this is a terrible port, when you start fighting real bosses and start to evade fast AOS it shows that the hitbox registration is horrible AF and boss animations jump around. Hit reg feels like its kinda laggin or delayed - even tho its running in good performance?

    If you go on their website and their company policies the first thing you see is "At Blizzard Entertainment, we pour our hearts and souls into everything we create. We embrace our core values every day so that we can continue creating epic entertainment experiences for all our players.

    The first bullet point is gameplay first. This game is the complete opposite to gameplay first.

    Yes this game is free and the developers and creators should be paid. But this is taking advantage of people. Basically 0 ways to earn the coveted legendary crests to run rists to get that amazing loot. Because after all thats what diablo is all about.
    You offer 1 during the questline, 1 a month in the hilt shop and 1 in the battle pass for free. This game is all about money and blizzard should be ashamed of themselves but i think wyatt should be the most shameful saying basically the complete opposite of what the game actually is. This is next level gluttony. The fact that they avoid the term loot boxes by simply adding a fighting sequence in between the randomly generated gem speaks for itself. Don't play this and don't waste amy money on them. Oh but i forgot to mention. If you do decide to indulge in their awful game, you better choose carefully on which character to buy the battle pass or cosmetics on because they aren't account wide. That's right you want rewards on multiple characters you better ready to double up!!!    … Expand

    There's a key game feature which is even locked behind a paywall, forcing those who stood against paying, to actually pay if they want to unlock that specific function (Resonance / Awakening system).

    The main problem here is that they overkilled their predatory marketing micro-transaction policies, not to mention the sweet little things, which I could call barely legal and more likely rather illegal: shady tricks as 800% more value chests, without actually giving a clue to the user, compared to what 800% more of a value... stuff like that.

    With that said, the game design and content are great, they just ruined everything with the above described problems.

    Blizzard did a great job, it's like they've grabbed their job, poured flammable liquid on it, and threw in a lit match on the day it came out, and they said, "We've done our part, now it's your turn."

    "Do you guys not have phones?" ... (and credit-cards)?

    Shame on you Blizz, I had faith in you, I gave you many chances to prove yourself worthy to your audience once more, yet you've fallen and have chosen the wrong path.

    Franchise ruining game. This is not a true diablo experience. this is a predatory game that does everything it can to get you to spend money. everything you complete will be rewarded with an opportunity to buy another bundle.

    It's getting to the point where we need to organize as a society to sue and disband this threat to society. Clearly pushing every last nickel and dime by exploiting people with addictions before these dirtbags cash out and move their money to overseas tax havens. This is the final stages of the fall of an empire and every single person working there disgraces those who came before them.

    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.
