Blizzcon diablo immortal no clap9/20/2023 ![]() Five and a half hours is a long time to wait, but seating in the main hall is limited, and another friend of mine tweeted a picture of the line around 10:00pm the night before: I attended BlizzCon with some friends and we got up at 5:30 in the morning on Friday to be in line for the convention’s opening ceremony, which was scheduled to start at 11:00am. Something Really Special Needs to Close out a Blizzcon Opening Ceremony It was simply announced in the wrong manner. ![]() I played it on the show floor and found it to be pretty fun. As someone who has played the series since the release of Diablo II, I’m not upset that Diablo Immortal exists. We can assume that the Diablo team went back to work today and discussed what went wrong at BlizzCon. The official YouTube uploads of the game’s cinematic and gameplay trailers have been downvoted into oblivion, and are sitting at a combined 27,000 likes/635,000 dislikes at the time of this writing. During a live Q&A for the game, a BlizzCon attendee asked if the announcement was an “ out of season April Fool’s joke,” and the majority of the crowd booed when Principal Designer Wyatt Cheng stated that there were no plans for a PC version of Immortal. The backlash was immediate and unlike anything I’ve ever seen for a Blizzard game announcement. However, the internet was set ablaze with the reveal of Diablo Immortal, a mobile title that Blizzard is developing in partnership with NetEase. ![]() Ashe is coming to Overwatch, Warcraft III is getting an extremely impressive update with Warcraft III: Reforged, Heroes of the Storm is getting its first original character, and Hearthstone‘s final 2018 expansion is coming early next month. BlizzCon 2018 took place this past weekend and we got some pretty cool announcements.
