YouTube dislike floods are nothing new and they seem to be one of the preferred ways that fans let their frustrations be heard. Not to mention there are over 16,000 comments, most of them negative. Many fans were upset and they have been letting Blizzard know it in as many ways as possible.Ĭurrently, the YouTube trailer for Diablo Immortal has a staggering 162,000 dislikes, with about 5,600 likes. While Blizzard tried to temper expectations going into the event, few could have predicted that a mobile game announcement would be the centerpiece of BlizzCon’s keynote. The visual quality on display is also impressive.To say that there was a lot of frustration surrounding the announcement of Diablo Immortal at BlizzCon 2018 would be putting things mildly.

It is grittier, more serious and almost has truly desolate vibe to it.

It will be interesting if Blizzard will follow the teachings of Path of Exile, allowing players who prefer to play solo to have their own instanced areas, free of any unwanted company.ĭiablo IV looks much more grounded visually too. These features were generally well received in the mobile game. You’ll find random people who have been dynamically matchmade to you, allowing the implementation of dynamic events and world bosses, which require multiple players to tackle down. The open world of Sanctuary features a multiplayer system very similar to that of Immortal. A few of the features that we’ve seen so far also show a new, big influence: Diablo Immortal. Blizzard do seem to have changed their stance, insisting on the “purely cosmetic microtransactions”, which has unfortunately become the norm for AAA 60 to 70$ videogames.ĭiablo IV looks much darker and more mature than its predecessor, and it seems to be trying to be more of a sequel to Diablo II than III. This new footage shown at The Game Awards has given people a lot of hype, but fans of the franchise should rightly be on the fence given the whole Diablo Immortal debacle.
