Diablo Immortal announced - It's a mobile game. People are pissed. VERY pissed.

What else is there to say?

Here's the trailer:

The dislike bar is in free fall right now.

[edit]Jesus, this trailer looks like crap[/edit]

Here's a short snippet from their Q&A where they announce there are no plans for a PC version and people boo him out.
Someone asks whether it's an out of season april fools joke and people whistle and applaud.

I am genuinely flabberghasted. How out of touch can these mongoloid idiots be? Thank fuck I gave up on this franchise when they butchered Diablo 3.

I played Diablo II a lot on a tablet/stylus system and tapping on stuff is actually a really fun way to play Diablo.

Also ill be sharing that Q&A clip around.

I hope it'll be available on a more convenient platform like youtube soon. Though the guy that asks in that video sounds like he's just an inch away from breaking into tears.

It's Blizzard, they haven't made a good artistic descsion since the early 2000's.

Damn you know you really dropped the ball when Blizzard gets boos from their exceptional fanbase, Blizzard could take a pile of dogshit and spraypaint it and their fans would still buy it.

 

[Oddjob OTP]

This is exactly the same shit people were pissed at when EA did it at E3 with C&C Mobile, only Blizzard insisted on pretending this was a major announcement and hyped it and gave it top billing. If you're going to shit on your fans like this at least make it a surprise.

Edit: HAHAHAHA FUCKING BLIZZARD

Neatease just slapped official assets on their rip off mobile ARPG

But what about the huge amounts of porn of Overwatch?

Checkmate.

 

[HomeAloneTwo]

Warcraft 3 reforged should have been the last announcement. Not this bag of trash. If you're going to go mobile make it D2 or D1.

It also doesn't look like enough content to be worth a pc port. Just a bunch of flipped D3 assets.

 

[Martys_not_smarty]

Just a bunch of flipped D3 assets.

Pretty much, looks like they're trying to go down the same route as the Lineage series making it mobile to tap more money out of the Wumao's.

 

[Mapo Tofu]

Diablo/Grand Prder but even more fucking frustating than a gacha game

 

[King Kobra]

When even your army of drones refuse to cheer up your last turd,You know you have fucked up for good

GG Blizzard

I like the trailer...but I hate mobile mmos

 

[Mammal Pod]

Just read a hot take on Twitter saying that people hating the trailer is because of "toxic masculinity" since mobile gaming is dominated by women, because of course

You specified MMO's but is there actually any good mobile games at all?

Who the fuck let this guy do the talking for diablo immortal?
He made a PR nightmare for blizzard rn

 

[Clorex]

BEHOLD! the unpaid PR manager for Diablo Immortal
https://twitter.com/willjpowers?lang=en

This exceptional individual is currently doing it for free and works in "mobile" and has ties to "mobile esports"

You see mobile gaming is now a feminist issue and if your don't like playing games on your phone it's because you're sexist.

yea just compare the aesthetics of Diablo 1 and 2 to this cheesy cinematic crap. the thing that made Diablo cool was the creepy vibe with acoustic guitar.
