It’s been long enough for sure. Hopefully it doesn’t take a year for them to figure shit out if it ever launches
the closest i want to see this franchise approach those genres is having a few characters in heroes of the storm.
Activision Blizzard stocks loses 3.7 billion dollars after closing Blizzcon with a shitty mobile Diablo game announcement instead of Diablo 4. also
It is, but its fucking baffling how Blizzard completely didn't see the shit show coming "do...do you guys not HAVE phones?" was a legit answer on the panel during the presentation.
“we care deeply about our community!” “Here is a cash grab mobile diablo, we know you’re all excited” -Blizzard I cant think of a better way to say fuck you to the community they claim to care so deeply for.
I can see it now.... “Identify this legendary for just $2.99!” “Unlock greater rifts with our Fuck You pack for just $19.99.”
