Would it be better if Diablo Immortal’s microtransactions didn’t tap into a gambling mindset which lets you buy items just for the chance of another to drop from an enemy? 100 percent. Besides, crying “cheater” when you lose at a video game is a time honored tradition, and one that I am happy to continue in Diablo Immortal. It is harder to tell, but there is a solid chance that the person who killed you in a player-versus-player match or the person who is at the top of the ranks has paid for one of the various ways that cash can make you more powerful in Diablo Immortal.
Replace cheating with paying, and the issue is ultimately the same. I pushed and pushed my characters as far as I could go, and found it incredibly satisfying.ĭiablo Immortal is essentially identical in that regard.
In Diablo 3, I had to come to terms with the fact that I will never be at the top of the leaderboard without cheating. Some people made YouTube videos on the issue too: I obviously wasn’t the only one that noticed. The players at the top somehow had items that didn’t even technically exist in the game, with obscene amounts of extra damage and bonuses that an ordinary player simply can’t access. The top of the leaderboards where you can see how you stack up against other players were completely overrun by obvious cheaters. I loved it.īut Diablo 3 on Switch had a problem. In parallel, you also took on harder and harder dungeons to see how high in the difficulty curve you could climb. Here, the fun was in endlessly running procedurally generated dungeons in the hope that the one or two items you need to finally complete your set of armor will drop. I think I played four or so seasons, where you level up a character from the start, through the campaign, and into the endgame. According to my played time stats on my Nintendo Switch, the platform I grinded many, many a night on, I’ve put nearly 400 hours into the game.
I’ve played a lot of Diablo, and specifically the endgame of Diablo 3.
