There's like 40k people here that don't care about it. The NA market does not care about mobile gaming . The crowd was clearly displeased and the Q&A was hostile. Someone legit asked if it was an out of season April fool's joke.as well as asking about a a PC release which got booed when the answer was no.
Having a mobile game makes sense it just should have not been announced at blizzcon. It should have been a gamescon/E3/chinajoy announcement
"
Having a mobile game makes sense". That, alone, could be discussed for years.
Having a
DIABLO mobile game seemingly taking precedence over anything for PC Diablo (D3 Expansion or new Act / D3 Class / D3 New Items / some sort of 'overhaul' of the game's systems / Diablo 4 / Diablo 2 Remaster) does
NOT make "sense".
It. Does. NOT. Make. "Sense". People didn't have enough seeing Command & Conquer go there? How much more bloodshed do we apparently want?
But whatever, Blizzard is going down the drains real hard. The only game now I can still enjoy enough to play it regularly is HOTS, albeit they do destroy a bunch of their heroes with stupid decisions and updates (and "reworks"); and the number of heroes I do like to play has been decreasing steadily since the past year. I went from playing a solid 30+ of them to staying with the same 10 or so now.
To me it feels like they're going out of their way to destroy at least one of their franchises because it's too tough for them to work on all of them at once (saying "too tough" for them is just a nicer way to say that they're just damn lazy to work on 'mega' projects). So let's throw Diablo in the garbage bin, let's welcome Destiny and Call of Duty on our launcher instead and let's remaster WC3 and ask $40 for it.
Makes sense.
