Pretty graphics that feel very Diablo.They added an in-game calendar/schedule so that it is easy to find and see the timed events like world bosses, as well as group events your clan has scheduled.Mix of instant gratification fast run repeat content (like Baal runs or rifts) with grindy content if you prefer.I like being able to transfer a legendary power to any slot I want. In game systems that are different than other Blizzard games, but also rather interesting.Multiple classes with some interesting mechanics.Full story line and quests to play through.Took me years to get over some of my anger about the way it was announced, but eventually when they said I could play on PC, I have played some. I don’t know about the “real fan” nonsense, but I would give Immortal a try if you have not. to be a “real” diablo fan you should have play at last all diablo games, to know something about them and the diablo story. But at the end of the day I don’t personally care about that as much as I do the blatant gambling mechanics in a product that is not regulated that offends me as it will lead to harm that could have been avoided or at least mitigated against.I played d4 and d3 and wonder should I play immortal. I assume they have been very carful to not out right say its not pay to win. Make no mistake its a slot machine taking a lot of queues from bingo style machines.Īs to the whole “Pay to Win” yes obviously its pay to win, the lying to clients should result in a law suit. As it is this is a weighted system that tries to hide its self as simple MTX. If they wanted to go get a gaming license to distribute Immortal then fine, I might actually play then as I would at least know its a fair system with published odds. The major issue here is that this will adversely effect vulnerable people and they do know that I want to hear from them what their justification for that is.

This BS is pushed out to kids and with the insistence that its fair and balanced. I don’t have anything against games that appeal to high rollers but in the gaming industry we have regulations and strict oversight that help protect the consumer and in particular vulnerable persons. I recognize it as I worked in the gaming (gambling) industry as a software developer for a number of years. The system they have set up is very much so a casino style treadmill, designed to bleed a high roller dry.
