That won’t stop the company, however: Diablo Immortal is still coming, and beyond that, executive producer Allen Adham said during a BlizzCon press conference that Blizzard is working on mobile versions of all of its intellectual properties. It looks like classic Diablo, but the reception was largely negative-fans wanted a new PC game instead, and the backlash sent Activision Blizzard’s stock tumbling in the days after the announcement. And I always thought people already considered the Diablo franchise to be dead and buried after how Diablo 3 also got massively negative reception.Dota 2, Fortnite, Hearthstone, Heroes of the Storm, League of Legends, Overwatch, PUBG Mobile, World of WarcraftĪnnounced at BlizzCon this month, Diablo Immortal is a completely new, mobile-exclusive extension of the popular PC action role-playing franchise from Activision Blizzard and mobile developer NetEase Games. They were dead to me all the way back when they decided they were going to focus on MMO stuff at the very least. Blizzard to me was a company that made some cool stuff back in the 90s but is hardly relevant to anything I'd be interested in today. More or less the sentiment I was looking to see I don't really have stock in this brouhaha beyond being amazed that there is a brouhaha about it. And I know some people put the moment of death after Diablo 2, what with Warcraft 3 sanitizing the Warcraft universe from all the dark shit like orcs sacrificing humans on altars or renaming Demons to "TITUNZ". My gut says it died after The Burning Crusade. I dunno exactly when, because it kind of depends on what you care for in games. The Blizzard that made games out of love and care died years ago.
