It's a decent entry point into the long-running series, and importantly - it is free-to-play. Well, free to a point.
In Diablo Immortal, there are microtransactions that will allow players to upgrade their characters for an additional real-world cost. Get ready.
Sinon j'ai continué un peu #DiabloImmortal sur la version PC (tout à fait acceptable pour un portage d'un jeu mobile) et si y'a des choses plus abouties que dans Diablo 3 (notamment côté combats de boss qui demandent un peu de skills) le reste me pose un vrai souci, alors 🧵
Déjà pour mettre les choses au clair : j'ai aucun souci avec les jeux mobile, ça me choque pas de voir un jeu F2P proposer un battle pass ou que sais je et je suis moi même du genre à sortir la CB quand un jeu me plait (Path of Exile et Warframe en tête)
Tout ça pour dire que je considère pas le jeu mobile comme inférieur ou pas "du vrai jeu vidéo", cependant Diablo c'est un peu une série du coeur comme vous le savez peut-être et Immortal enfreint une règle fondamentale des diablo like : la sacro sainte RNG

Caveats:
-Taxes/benefits have increased dramatically for companies to offer
-Blizzard would do well to relocate to a less expensive area

-Due to economic challenges last few years, most organizations have been very cautious about profit-sharing w/ staff. Not unique to games industry.
-Rampant unemployment & slow economic growth the last 10 years has emboldened companies to raise job requirements & pay less

-Now that the job market is improving, companies will struggle to retain or recruit if they don't improve compensation.
-Gaming studios are the last bastion of the Dot-Com boom. And now they must restructure to be profitable as competition has increased a LOT

Some comments on #Diablo Immortal and the #diabloimmortal backlash, the backlash to the backlash and now the backlash to the backlash to the backlash. In a thread.
First, if you're not up to speed, Blizzard announced a new Diablo game at Blizzcon last week. It's called Diablo Immortal and it's coming exclusively to mobile phones. cnet.com/news/diablo-im…
Many fans, expecting Diablo 4 to be announced, reacted viscerally -- one even asked the developers if it was a joke. It's not. It's real. That backlash made waves online, resulting in an unfolding narrative in which two contrasting sides are both right.
