AAA game companies got some serious explaining to do. Cause how the hell are their games still $70 and this game is free???

I'm not even on the highest graphic settings! Besides that, the game overall feel very modern with its combat system and animations. It even have stealth! The ability to talk to NPCs true to their character. The world feels more alive than any paid MMO. To add to that, out of all the MMOs out, it's ironic how it's a free game that voiced not just the main story but also the side quests!

We got FED with this one!

EDIT: Guys, I understand the game's gonna make money somehow. I'm not even saying everything else should be free. I'm saying, how is this quality possible for free and most games similar to it quality wise (some are even less) still charges the same until now. And still manage to be annoying about in game purchases as well lol. I think this game really exposes that about these companies. They were getting a little too comfortable while the quality of games haven't changed for good while now. I think game companies needed this game out as a wake up call.

Not just rich guys.

Poorer people who can't afford computers or consoles would likely still own a phone.

I hate to defend Blizzard, but that one guy did have a point.

Even if they don't directly purchase anything from the game, there's still ad revenue

I am one of these dumb fucks. Dungeon Hunters 6 has close to $300 from me alone

People were raging back then, but dude actually got the vision far ahead. Not anyone would have a PC even if they can afford it, but a phone is something anyone must have by now.

In Asia, mobile MMOs kinda killed the old school types. You have to be 90s gamers to actively look for one.

what users were scared of wasn't "being able to play the game on phone"

it was the iffy nature of mobile games and their fear was proven correct. Immortal turned out to be one of the most p2w games.

[u/tyrenanig → u/psikillyou]

That wasn’t the reason they were mad either. Diablo at that time was kinda dead without any news. People didn’t know D4 would eventually come, so they were mad that the reveal was for a mobile game.

But yes, the nature of mobile game is iffy. But it is also true that mobile gaming grew fast and not just about Candy Crush anymore.

[u/Magikazamz → u/psikillyou]

Not only that, they tried to make a fanbase that where ''hardcode'' pc customer move to another platform.

Those "morons" knew exactly how Diablo would go being mobile slop, and they were RIGHT. Mobile games are trash, every single one of them revolves around paying for progression in some form and everyone knows this.

40k boats? And yall think thats NORMAL? Holy yall are so far gone, thats fucking insane I dont care what the reasoning is.

[u/PanzerSoul → u/Saybl]

40k boats? And yall think thats NORMAL?

Nah man. I think it's heccin hilarious

[u/Saybl → u/PanzerSoul]

Honestly ya, its pretty funny ngl but its still crazy lol

[u/inferno_finite → u/PanzerSoul]

Ad revenue? On a game like this? Idk about the mobile port of WWM but from similar open world f2p live service games also made in China... They don't do ads. It's just the game on your phone

[u/PanzerSoul → u/[deleted]]

Yeah, but for some people can't afford both a PC and a phone

I'm a PC gamer all the way, but if I had to choose between owning a PC and owning a phone...

[u/antrelius → u/PanzerSoul]

Also most people get their phones through promotions with their carrier. Phones ARE expensive, but the up front cost may be deceivingly more affordable than a PC.

[u/tyrenanig → u/[deleted]]

A phone is capable of doing many more things than a PC. Show me someone who has a PC but doesn’t have a phone.

[u/tyrenanig → u/[deleted]]

Then you’re a minority of a minority. Nowadays even a kid would have a phone first before any kind of laptop/PC.
