Diablo mobile is no big suprise they have 1 game for every market segment as so none of there game compete with each other and its a market they havnt really touched besides hearthstonr but that can be accessed on pc. From a buisness perspective it is a smart move and people will play it
IMO they backed out at the last second on showing off the real Diablo project. Which is why they started to try to kill the hype so close to the show.
Maybe they decided it wasn't ready for a reveal.
I have to totally agree. That and the removal of all the story comic books leans that way. I think their quote that " good comes to all that wait but evil maybe a little longer" will end up that way... so 2019 it is .... I still would like to see it as an MMO but I do get why the stalwart Diablo fans would like the continuation with a '4' ..
I honestly do not know how anyone at Blizzard could think that Blizzcon attendees would give even half a shit about a mobile game. Talk about a misfire ....
Is like they try very hard to disappoint their player base this year. BfA and now "Diablo Mobile".
Also , the "Pre-Purchase" for W3 Reforged ( which is months away ) starting from 30 euro/$ up until 70 euro/$ says a lot about how in a bad position is Blizzard this days.
Don't worry guys. "Daughter" of Diablo.. Path of Exile will be still there and will rock.. this December new expansion and so... GG Blizz you kill yourself.
On the brighter side, I loved the new wow cinematic. Looking forward to see what is going to happen. I still think Sylvanas will be redeemed some how.
yea me too, was a really good cinematic, to bad it's more entertaining to watch the videos of youtube than to actually play the game right now. Also loved the new character for overwatch, but this is the first year I've been really disappointed with blizzcon.
Quite possibly one of the worst opening ceremonies I’ve ever seen. There’s a difference between setting expectations (which Blizzard did in regards to the future of Diablo) and outright promoting the opposite of what fans wanted.
At least Bethesda confirmed Elder Scrolls 6’s existence when they announced a mobile game. I expect Blizzard to continue its pattern of outright ignoring the community.
If these are the best announcements Blizzard can come up with, perhaps BlizzCon should only happen every other year.
After that; letting the "Diablo Mobile sinking a bit Moment" and recap what i saw, i must say one thing;
I feel soooooo sry for the Diablo Immortal Presentation guy! I rly do. He was so enthusiastic and he was waiting for the crowd starting to cheer and all that. And what happened to that poor guy? It was rather silent. No one was going "Whoooo that's it". I feel for him rly. Besides that he had to stay positive, ofc, it's his job. But man, you could see behind his "Marketing Mask" that he was shocked to not get what he thought would happen.
I hope they have a big GOTCHA moment up their sleeves and that all these "lowered expectations" feelings so many have for the convention are put to rest with something B-I-G! *crosses fingers*
Well that Classic audience got their money's worth since it'll be out next year and rolled into the current sub.

I'm not an IT Specialist, Game Developer, or Clairvoyant in real life, but like others on here, I play one on the internet.
