Don’t you guys have phones?

They wouldn't have made fools of themselves if they had D4 planned.

Retard.

D4 has had two iterations already. One was a Souls-clone.

That said, Immortal was just the icing on the cake. D3 was already a terrible clusterfuck that torched the company's name, not sure why anyone would look forward to D4.

why would Chinks spend any money on this shit when there are million diablo clones for ages on mobile?

It is a mod of the developer's other game. It was probably dirt cheap and will make them a ton of money.

>share holders didn't ruin video games its just nostalgia
lmao, imagine this argument in 2019

>holding onto hope for d4 after the absolute crap of a game that was d3
Take the Sigma pill.

I mean, fucking Nintendo saved their asses when they showed that shitty Metroid DS game
They announced a new Metroid game in the works at the end of their conference and everyone clapped like retards

pretty much, diablo 3 was really not that good.

>blizzard
>caring about what fans think
they know chinks will eat this shit up and their mobile market is ludicrous. god I fucking hate China.
Not that Diablo 4 would've been good anyway, we all know the Blizzard from the past has been dead for about 10ish years now.

why not? it's a big brand name in chink land, it'll sell just off that.

suits don't think like that
>thing is popular and we wanna get in on it
>who cares if the market is saturated and we'll be just another on the pile

Just give us diablo 2 remastered

Get in line bitch, the original should be up first.

Not just d3. Blizzard hasn't made a good game since wc3. Even sc hd's art is messy, which is thankfully the only they changed.

But China hated it too.

isnt Diablo Immortal already a clone of another phone game?

>put all your eggs in the mobile market basket
>long-time fans hate everything about it and with good reason
>China, being China, is outlawing depictions of blood, gore, bones
>governments as a whole are waking up to how big a deal microtransactions are, namely that they can be deemed gambling and thus regulated heavily
>ActiBlizz doubles down on their mobile direction
The most I can hope from them at this point is D2 remastered. And they'd probably ruin that too, given what they're doing with WC3 Reforged and Classic WoW.

Oh boy and they can change the artstyle like in their shitty WC3 remake.
>diablo 2.5! now with more Warcraft-like graphics!

Play Grand Chase if you want to play Diablo Immortal. It has best girl, Ley.

Well yeah but pc fags after poor cunts. Not even Diablo 4 will be targeted at those cringey faggots. Blizzard is however missing out on a lot of revenue from consoles.

Remaster what exactly? Only thing it needs is bigger resolution support.

>microtransactions are, namely that they can be deemed gambling
Need to make the distinction between microtransactions and gacha/lootbox bullshit if you're going to reference gambling.

Everything outside of vanilla D2 is trash.

They're not going to remake D1, no one gives a shit about that game.

This. It doesn't matter AT ALL what the rest of the world does with the game because there's going to be millions of chinks playing that shit, trying to escape the reality of the communist hellhole that is China. Diablo immortal is going to be raking Blizzard so much fucking money solely from chinks and there's nothing we can do about it

the main problem was the footage they showed was clearly just a reskinned version of the chinese developers previous game

Wish I shared this autism with you faggots to just gradually watch numbers rise. Just want it to go back to survival dungeon crawling with sinister ambience. Sincerely, fucking hate all of you

Blizzard would never give the user base the satisfaction of watching them eat crow over a bad decision like Immortal.

youtube.com/watch?v=97b5iE9YiNw

D1 is, comparatively, boring as fuck, so why would they waste their time? and yes I've played it and beaten it, I didnt have as much fun with it as I did with D2.

Why waste their time improving the foundation, I don't know pal. Just don't reply to me with your basic bitch opinion again.

>the main problem
No it isn't.
Every mobile ARPG has the same UI or a variation on it.
There are much bigger problems with immortal than that - beginning with the fact that it's not on PC.

They already started working on 4 a while ago IMO. The reason we didn't see anything yet is because they haven't figured out how to monetise it for the long-term, because obviously they won't retry the real money AH. Immortal is just a side thing aimed at the chinese market and fortnite type whales. I would be surprised if they didn't reveal it this year.

>Do you think Blizzard was so embarrassed by this that they went and started working on Diablo 4? How do you miscalculate your customer base this badly?
Blizzard was so embarrassed they made having a phone and a data harvesting app a requirement to going to BlizzCon

The Chinese D2 players I spoke to hate it too

D1 is too short, too niche, and too archaic for modern audiences. I like it, but it doesn't deserve a remaster over D2, which is still king of the genre to this day.

No blizzard was just stupid. Should have announced from the get go that d4 was coming

>tfw unironically waiting for it to come out.

They really should have followed Bethesda's reveal of Blade at E3, they wouldn't have faced the bitch-slap they're experiencing. Just put a "Diablo 4 coming soon" in a 10 sec teaser and that's it, crisis adverted. They really didn't think this through.

>We have entered the timeline when Bethesda became more capable than Blizzard

Madness

Blizzard has evolved to do shit in the dumbest, most inefficient way possible. It's so impressively incompetent that I have a hard time believing they're not being deliberately retarded.

It deserves a remaster BECAUSE it's so short. To me it's about consistency of the franchise, just a Diablo 2 remaster is tacky as fuck. Not that the husk of Blizzard has any passion or respect for the IPs left in their hold, just whatever prints to the loudest faggots.

Well I wouldn't go that far seeing how they're shitting themselves just trying to stabilize F76 since its release. But yeah they were so used to have the full support of their crowd, they didn't even think a mobile-diablo presented as the centerpiece of a Blizzcon would be a terrible idea.

The only reason I think it could get a remaster is because D2 re-uses a lot of the sprites from it, but if it came down to it, D2 obviously deserves it more.

>Not that the husk of Blizzard has any passion or respect for the IPs left in their hold
Every remaster has been outsourced. Blizzard just has senior staff supervising them, they don't actually develop the games themselves.

>improving the foundation for an inferior game
gee whiz brainlet I didnt mean to pinch a nerve, faggot.

Nah, they made sure everyone has a phone in the next blizzcon by forcing everyone to use some spyware phone app to even enter the venue

>How do you miscalculate your customer base this badly?
Miscalculating your customer base this badly is basically the stock in trade of major publishers now.

They want to die.

>studios can only work on one thing at a time

It's inferior only if you look at it as your grinding sim. Games like Book of Demons shows there is still an appeal in the sensibilities of the original Diablo.

Blizzard can barely work on one thing at a time. This is a company that shits out a half-assed, blatantly unfinished, buggy mess of an expansion every 28 months, and then makes a random piece of trash game every 5-6 years, like D3 and OW.

Plus we already know D4 has gone through two full pre-alpha/alpha dev periods that have both been cancelled. Blizzard is so fucking retarded they probably didn't have a single shred of D4 ready enough to even announce that it's an upcoming release.
