Diablo: Immortal (Diablo 2)
for those who in the tank:On BlizzCon 2018, which was held yesterday, Blizzy announced mobile game Diablo: Immortal. Moreover, they are not themselves developed the game, and gave it to a third-party Chinese Studio NetEase which was not so long ago release of the game Endless Of God. The game looks almost no different.
Blizzy is slowly but surely turning into EA. Almost every product, as if to say, does not hide explicit intention to cut the dough on the players, and sometimes even encourages the infusion of funds. That's not too lazy, will speak here on some points, for blew farts.
Suffering
1. Warcraft (not WOW). Announced Reforged (read: is) a version already on the same drivem engine. From what I found in the news, it follows that the change in fact only grafon, by replacing the meshes and textures for a more chotko and... everything. Well, there is all sorts of stuff - animation, support for modern Battle.net and so on, but it's all subtle for the average player. And is this patch as much as 1300 hardwood. Well, cool, that here. Craftsmen make almost shooters or Diablo clones on the second engine of StarCraft in one mug, and then a company decided to rape the corpse (I mean the engine, not the game) with an additional charge. Yes, perhaps they fear for the balance and mechanics originalnoj games. But I think that once came from, then let them do without fear on the conscience. Otherwise what's the point? Well or may not tear up the money for this, as for AAA game.
2. Hearthstone. This card game with nice art, music and fabulous atmosphere of the world of Warcraft at the muzzle befouled donarski imbalance. I'm not talking about the fact that you can buy a bunch of sets, to collect legendary cards and tear glasses - as it expected, a game that was made originally. The problem is that at higher levels the game completely loses its strategic dimension, and the outcome of the match card determines how many cards you have imbabah, and how well they do will be hit in the arm. That is a typical batch looks something like this:
first turn throw 3-4 small cards, which are particularly no damaget and have no effect;
mass spells or fat cards, take out all who stood previously are massive on both sides Popineau each other;
- throws imbwa map, completely killing or knock-out a key enemy or all;
the opponent throws the same;
- continues throwing iMovie maps that transform the playing field from the state of Oh, I'm like a puppy going to win it in state upsell, I am in trouble!, and back. As if you don't meticulously planned out my course, always be prepared for the fact that the enemy of one card will make all your key characters. Conclusion - blizzam just too lazy to cut the balance. It is better to sell more cards, which are cleaned mow each other than to bear the balance, in which the victory would give an accumulation of originally slight strategic advantages and careful planning of moves to suit all abilities, buffs, etc.
3. Diablo 3. In General, in this sub-forum at once took a dislike to this game that hurt me very badly, because most of the screaming, Wang, didn't even run it once. It is not fair somehow. Recently, however, I just got to her hands and I realized that the game have something to criticize, and to do so can be long and tedious. In short, briefly, what the fuck they are selling necromancer for 999 rubles? Yeah, who knows, they just sell necromancer character, at the price of the game. And Yes, the game is crap to me. About phone already through. In short, who wants Diablo a little more modern and grafham - blow in PoE, the game now looks very solid, both visually and gameplay. And free. But for me the franchise with the release of the third part bent.
here you write something, time goes on. get older. and then suddenly the game becomes"bad" because you don't have time for them. ;-)
It's you just getting old infa sotka. Look at the pensioners on the benches, they sit and discuss how everything sucks, but in our times... of course, I'm exaggerating a little) But this is partly true - the poll has developed his feeling as it should be which unfortunately for them did not always coincide with what is being presented.
The world is a different Blizzard now other and old is unlikely.
Previously, Blizzard was my favorite game makers, and now they're really sunk! Its Diablo of immortal they disgraced the entire line!
cristagalli, about me-that is clear. but the sausage all the time. I'm just saying that YOU occasionally caught yourself this: D2 is not changed here, as time goes on. you ask about the wishes, you pour water, and things are there. Mr. Kafka was a nice little story on this topic. people waited and waited at the gates of the Law, and when it came time to die, the gatekeeper explained to him that the log could not be had. ;-}
Blizzard is VERY different. but I'm old and is not necessary (it was).
I paid it to Episcop_moo. But nothing for mine all.
OK, let's put on a new RV, even something else? Life boils again on the serv, will all carry will be the interest and for how long? Clearly not 16 years old. A year or two and everything, then begin again whining about something that boring/and maybe reset? And then what to do? New RV/locations and so on? And then 100% ask - a move back 1.13.
Personally, I have been there. Better let them continue to complain that it is boring, than they pluck the tower from the app. If you are tired or need to score or to play something else.
On a subject by the way Diablo, Donato is a powerful idea. It's better for the Masonic Hari to watch xD
You have old cellphones and not pull this wonderful game, so you agrites!
And finally Blizzard 5-6 years already as dead. It was clear that nothing worthwhile from them not to wait.
Just as valve was bent and the third CP will be(if any) stuffed with transactions a little more than full.

In General, Yes. The only trick is that the poll is the feeling was not just out of nowhere and nothing to do, and on the basis of something quite successful. In our case, on the basis of D2 and even some D1. Ie, I will explain, I oldfaga roughly speaking, mind is a set of standard qualities that should have a game of Diablo series. It is clear that these qualities are subjective, but as practice shows, many players these ideas about the ideal coincide or at least overlap. The problems start at the moment when the developers don't cross the vision of the new game here with these very abstract ideas of the players. We have a strange product, which is definitely not attracted to old men, and it is not clear to attract a new audience. This does not mean that you just need to do a remaster on successful titles, just need to keep a good and complement new ideas.
Examples:
- Retained old complement: Warcraft II vs III.
Refused the old one, but found an audience for new: Starcraft I vs II
- Abandoned old and did nothing to retain new audiences: Diablo II vs III.
This is my subjective feelings, MB I'm wrong, and the whole world loves D3...
Before the game was developed on the knees and themselves developed did it almost for food and special atmosphere in the company. And now it is a huge business and they also want money. Where there is money, there developed a normal. And where to take money in a free game?
I'm not saying I have to like it, I hate it too unrealistic) but to wait for what will happen otherwise it makes no sense. Oldfagi will suffer from universal injustice, angry and so on. And confused... the product is already focused not on us. The only thing you can do is not to play.
