Blizzcon 2019 : calling it now

They are so out of touch with the community, I’m 95% sure they will talk about whatever mobile game they have in store for us (maybe Overwatch 2, who knows), and deliberately ask us if “we guys have phones”, because they thought they did a big le funny meme last year and will want to do that again.

And then they’ll make confused faces when people’ll leave.

Everyone bought a phone after Diablo Immortal so it’s fine now, don’t worry about it.

There is literally 0% chance of this happening. Blizzard’s stock plummeted after last year’s BlizzCon due to the whole Diablo Immortals fiasco. They won’t do that to themselves again. They’ve even publicly stated that they learned a lot from last year’s BlizzCon in regards to mobile games.

God these forums are so negative, man.

Just because they said that doesn’t mean they actually did.

Didnt all those leaks say about new FPS Diablo IV?

Witcher 3-like game?

I wish the dark souls diablo game had made it to completion tbh.

They aren’t a bunch of chimps sitting around a table. They aren’t going to tank their stock on purpose. If you think so, I honestly believe you have no idea what you’re talking about.

You guys will literally complain about whatever they do no matter what.

its almost like feedback tends to be on the negative side, who knew.

don’t you guys have phones xP

yeah sure, keep thinking everyone who criticizes the devs and their actions are being needlessly toxic just because you don’t want their authority to be ever questioned.

they are allowed to be wrong every now and again, they aren’t infallible beings and they should admit when they are wrong on changes when it becomes apparent its not working as they envisioned and either fix it so it does or rework into something that actually accomplishes that goal instead of just making the problems worse.

these are the same people that said “you think you do, but you don’t” when hundreds of thousands of people wanted wow classic back and made private servers just to get that experience back even a little bit. (which has proven to be a massive success as its what the players wanted when the company had said it was somehow not)

who knew listening to the fans more reasonable requests would actually work in their favor instead of spiting them for simply giving feedback.

also lets not forget when they deleted comments and likes from the diablo immortal trailer to try to hide the backlash

Nah, i’m pretty sure this term is forbidden in the office, just like the word Voldemort is forbidden in Hogwarts. Like, they can’t repeat the same mistake again.

OR

The correct way to introduce something like that, is by also introducing huge content for the PC/PSN/XBL versions of the game, and i don’t mean just a cinematic, a map and a hero that we already get per year, i’m talking double-triple-hell even quadruple that.

I just feels bad man for all the Demon Hunters out there who should have known better than to trust some fine print :man_shrugging:t2:

I think if anybody mentioned phone games at BlizCon, with any sort of high profile, then shareholders will ask for that person to be fired.

thats a pretty low bar to hit, and it’ll likely barely move the lore along at all.

Well, maybe we’ll finally find out if Mei managed to get out of frozen wasteland.

Actually, Activision had already confirmed in an interview that each division/branch of Blizzard is making mobile games…

Actually Meis journal what D.Va talks about is how Mei get out from Antarctica

OTOH, do you equally acknowledge the things they do right, or just focus on the negative? I would say most people here are very uneven in this regard.
