Diablo Immortal Reaction at Blizzcon: A Mixed Bag of Emotions

Blizzcon 2018 was a highly anticipated event for fans of the Diablo series. However, when Blizzard announced Diablo Immortal, a mobile game, instead of Diablo 4, many fans were left feeling frustrated and betrayed. The problem is that Blizzard didn't address any of these concerns at the actual show, leaving hundreds of thousands of people watching to wonder what was going on.

The reaction was not just about 'personally attacking developers,' but rather it was rooted in a deep sense of disappointment and betrayal. Many fans sincerely believed that Diablo Immortal was replacing Diablo 4, which would have been a major blow to the series. The implication was that Diablo 4, the game everyone had been waiting for, would not be announced at Blizzcon.

It's understandable then that many fans felt angry and upset. But what's interesting is that Blizzard had already addressed this concern before the show. In a statement, Blizzard said 'We currently have multiple teams working on different Diablo projects and we can't wait to tell you all about them.' This implies that Diablo 4 is still in development, but for some reason, it was not announced at Blizzcon.

One of my pushbacks to everyone getting mad was reminding people that before BlizzCon, Blizzard said 'We know what many of you are hoping for and we can only say that 'good things come to those who wait,' but evil things often take longer.' This statement suggests that Diablo 4 is still in the works, but it's taking longer than expected.

While some fans may have felt let down by the announcement of Diablo Immortal, others saw it as an opportunity for Blizzard to try something new and innovative. The mobile game has the potential to bring a whole new audience to the Diablo series, which could be a positive thing in the long run.

In conclusion, the reaction to Diablo Immortal at Blizzcon was mixed. While some fans were disappointed and felt betrayed, others saw it as an opportunity for Blizzard to try something new. It's clear that there are still many questions surrounding the future of the Diablo series, but one thing is certain - Diablo Immortal is not replacing Diablo 4.
