The way Blizzard handled the build up to the release of Diablo Immortal was horrible. It shows how clueless the people running Blizzard really are. Any fan of Diablo series could of told them that people would react poorly to it.  People were expecting news about PC version of Diablo. 
 

 
Diablo Immortal is not being developed by blizzard, it was outsourced to NetEase. I hear Chinese players do not like that mobile game developer.  I wonder if the game will be loaded with micro-transactions.

    Blizzard continually demonstrates their inability to understand the people who play their games.

    We can thank Activision for that.

    That sounds more like Microsoft.

    Mobile gaming is such trash. There is a very big push for it now from Razer and Asus both of which released "gaming" phones.

    Mobile gaming will stay trash, it's not the best platform to game on.

    I do not like it but it will probably make money. I can not stand playing on a touch screen but I see how many people are playing and it shows why they wanted to make it a cellphone game. Same reason Nintendo is releasing games on cell.

    Been sayin' it for years...oh about 10 - 15yrs now. Blizzard lost its way a decade and a half ago, their brands are old and stale, the only new "Brand" they have is Overwatch which was jumping on the multi-player 'pissing-match' bandwagon. It's a company that's living on the previous successes of people who aren't even there anymore...

    I don't play any games on my phone. I used to play Angry Birds but even that is 100 times a better experience on my PC. No offense to mobile players at all, but I wouldn't even dream of playing Diablo on a mobile device or any other game. Instant boredom commences.

    Mobile games aren't really games though that's the problem. It's paywalls and skinner boxes.
