What are the first impressions of Diablo Immortal?
I’ve already played Diablo Immortal for about 6 hours using a Google Pixel 6 Pro and OnePlus 10 Pro. That Gaming experience on smartphone is surprisingly good with touch controls. It would certainly be better with a tablet, but I don’t have that right now. My barbarian at level 32 is fun and I get through the campaign well, have no problems with the enemies and really like the gameplay. Even if the in-game purchases are relatively obtrusive, I haven’t spent any money on them yet.
In the Google Play Store, the ratings are also very positive with over a million downloads. Despite the massive Pay2Win allegations against Blizzard the game is well received with a rating of 4.7 out of 5 stars. Mostly Samsung gamers complain that the game has graphic issues. A really big success for Blizzard. Only later in the game will it become clear how much real money you have to invest in order to be able to keep up. Then the rating could still change. In my opinion, the game is by no means a flop.
