The opening ceremony of BlizzCon, a livestreamed event always replete with news and unveilings, concluded with Diablo. It’s something that we really appreciate, and we like to hear the things that they articulate as to what they want to hear next and what we can do better, frankly.” The commitment and the engagement of our community is, I think, one of the things that makes Blizzard very special. And frankly, we feel fortunate to have a community that cares so much about that franchise. I think that came through loud and clear from BlizzCon. “I think that it’s clear that there are a lot of players who are eager for more Diablo PC and console content. “So we’ve seen some interesting reaction to the announcement,” Brack said during the Activision Blizzard third-quarter earnings call.
Allen Brack was a bit more blunt with his assessment of the game reveal over the weekend, which sparked anger among some of Diablo’s biggest fans. Additionally, criticisms of Diablo: Immortal looking like a reskin of NetEase’s Endless of God mobile game has players upset.The reaction to the BlizzCon unveiling of “ Diablo Immortal” was “muted,” according to Activision Blizzard president and chief operating officer Coddy Johnson. Recent allegations of removing negative comments from YouTube videos or reposting said videos in their launcher didn’t help matters. The internet mob is already roused, after all. Likewise, their player base is in full revolt in the official forum, subreddits, and social media.īlizzard representatives were quick to respond to these criticisms but we doubt they’d do any good. Blizzard’s video announcements and trailers have been bombarded with dislikes.
Angry and vocal players said it was disrespectful to their fanbase and akin to “killing the franchise” completely. Gamers have taken to lambast the developers for their decision to release a mobile-only Diablo game made in partnership with NetEase. Unfortunately, they certainly did not expect it’d be to the same degree as we’ve seen so far on the internet. Well, it looks like Blizzard was expecting negative reactions due to their Diablo: Immortal announcement.
