I get huge mixed feelings while playingDiablo Immortal.
And it all makes for a hell of an introduction.
It genuinely feels like Diablo at its best.
There are occasional snags, though.
Squint at it on mobile, and it can even look like a genuine next iteration in the series.
It feels more alive and more bombastic than Diablo 3, more advanced, more evolved.
It’s something that always happens in online multiplayer games like this: they push you towards multiplayer.
It’s, inevitably, the shop, the free-to-play guts of it all.
You name it, there seems to be an option to buy it.
It’s a game designed to make money this way.
Philosophically, it’s a different kind of Diablo.
There’s a question of trust related to this too.
That’s not Diablo and it’s not right.
It’s ugly, and I hope Activision Blizzard hears that.
That’s why I have mixed feelings about the game.
