It does feel like Heroes of the Storm to me.
It sets a standard, that’s for sure. If this is what’s on offer for a free mobile game, I’m looking forward to what’s in store for D4.

“Free”. It’s likely free until you get to “act 2” then it will take literally months to MAYBE get half way through. This way you’re incentivized to spend $20 to get good enough gear to get by. Then that number just increases every day.

The alpha players already at “Act 5” or higher, I think.
Also, you can’t buy gear in Immortal.
Guarantee there’s going to be something required to progress. Why else would they get NetEase or whatever involved?

Because in China law, you need to partner with China company if you want to release their game in China and Blizzard had been always working together with Netease since Warcraft 3 time.
Secondly, Netease has a lot of experience of making mobile ARPG, so seeking help or guidance from them is totally make sense here.

This so much. All in all, it looks like they’re taking pvp far more seriously in both Diablo 4 and Immortal than what they did with Diablo 3, and I’m actually happy about that.
