Kotaku spoke to executive producer and Blizzard co-founder Allen Adham about the fan reaction. The blog post, made to temper the expectations of the fans, clarified that there are multiple Diablo projects in the works, and that “…we do intend to share some Diablo-related news with you at the show.” Despite this, fans on the Diablo subreddit are calling the game “worse than nothing,” “a slap in the face,” and claim Blizzard is “spit in the faces” of the fans. While the disappointment in not getting a major entry is understandable, Blizzard gave fair warning in a pre-con blog post. As of this article’s publication, it has 15k likes and 395k dislikes. It’s telling how many people are angered by the like/dislike ratio on the game’s announcement trailer. The fact that the announcement was a mobile game is causing many of them to believe Blizzard is abandoning PC and console for mobile, thus abandoning the fans who supported the Diablo series from its beginnings.
It’s pretty apparent that fans were hoping for something else, like a remaster of one of the older Diablo games or an announcement for Diablo 4.
