We did get to play about 15 minutes of Immortal at BlizzCon and came away feeling like the game was a kind of Diablo Lite.

The main team is likely working on whatever is next for Diablo. Though Blizzard has probably spent some time making this “a true Diablo experience,” it’s safe to say that Netease has done a lot of the upfront work, allowing Blizzard to dedicate a smaller team to this.

Immortal is likely a reskin of another Netease game called Endless of God. Worse still, many assume that because Diablo Immortal exists, it’ll be even longer before we see the next game aimed at hardcore fans. But everyone should have known it wasn’t going to happen yet and it’s clear people didn’t adjust their expectations accordingly. Skill Up reviewing #RDR2 November 2, 2018

#diabloimmortal #Diablo #diablo /Jvt4XzswzS So I wasn’t surprised when it was finally announced, but fans felt entitled to boo and call out developers at BlizzCon. Leaks and rumors pointed to a Diablo mobile title. No one really knew 100 percent what to expect this weekend. They were all hoping for Diablo 4, but those hopes were tempered by Blizzard well before BlizzCon started. It is not what hardcore fans of the franchise wanted. Announced yesterday at BlizzCon, the game developed by Blizzard and Netease is coming to Android, iPhone, and iPad. It is a wholly new game that we've built.If you’re at all into video games and on social media, you’ve probably heard about the backlash over Diablo Immortal by now. It is a new game going into new zones we've never seen before, fighting new bosses we haven't seen in this form before. They have new legendary items, new legendary gems. The character classes, while they may be six of the same character classes, they have new abilities they did not have before, they have variations on abilities they did not have before. It's being built from scratch on a new engine, and it's not a re-skin of Diablo III. It wasn't using to any of those previous games people are comparing it to.

'This is an engine that NetEase is using for the first time. Pretty much everything else about the free-to-play adventure has a freshness attached, since Diablo Immortal's abilities, legendary items, and zones are all being built from the ground up. According to Technical Game Designer Kris Zierhut, the quality graphics are thanks to the new engine NetEase is using - an engine its other games weren't built on. What's been shown of Diablo Immortal, so far, looks impressive.
