Asmongold Reacts to "The Diablo Immortal Catastrophe" by Quin69

I want to take you guys in a little journey let's rewind to 2014 April the first web Blizzard gleefully announced their new mobile game happy reaper an April Fool's joke diablo on the mobile oh my god where they rightfully take the piss out of mobile games this is the April Fool's like oh no that features Oh [ __ ] No fast forward to 2018 that's Blizzcon that's actually really sad Activision Blizzard it's also good you should work only announces the latest addition to the Diablo franchise a mobile game Diablo immortal I feel kind of bad for what happened because this is like a favorite game go so wrong we're being a little bit dramatic that's because I [ __ ] am that's the point there's people on the internet going around effectively saying we're all overreacting we're getting just really mad at developers for no reason if you don't like a game don't play it well and they're missing the point so that's what I'm gonna try and articulate I'm gonna try and explain as to why Blizzard messed this up so badly how they did it wrong and why everyone's kind of like how I am a little bit not not too happy cuz I'm generally speaking a pretty happy guy but I mean this whole Diablo situation couldn't have been done worse like there's the right way of doing that's actually a good point how could they have done it worse III would Emily don't even know yeah I don't I don't know there there's no way they could have done it worse DLC no because then at least DLC would be a fight would be a PC game things and there's a wrong way yeah this is the worst it's all over what Blizzard did wrong the status if you want a blueprint of how not to release a mobile game okay then look no further then Electronic Arts most recent mobile game release at e3 earlier on this hyper command & Conquer we actually watch this on stream deprive fanbase having their game that they thought was in the process of being made cut nothing since 2004 ours and then at e3 throat they say they're going to be releasing a new command & Conquer title and then Electronic Arts tries to force a mobile game down this diehard fan bases throat and as you can imagine people weren't too happy you go to their official reveal trailer 62,000 down votes to 2.9 Karos well well Boozer did better than that I mean they have to 700,000 down votes don't have fan base who's a rookies for some years greedy company trying to force some mobile MTX written [ __ ] down people's throats yeah and people aren't too happy about it and after the announcement shows gameplay of this debauchery of the command & Conquer franchise the EA chief design officer Patrick soderlund has the audacity to say we need two respects mobile games just respect it maybe people would respect mobile games if the people that made mobile games respected the players [ __ ] this sounds familiar at all any of this any of this yeah it's because Diablo Activision Blizzard are literally doing the exact same [ __ ] thing Diablos audience is comprised of primarily PC gamers and has been for the last 20 years yeah that's true Blizzcon it's full of the most die-hard fans they literally get into a middle to most of them and fly to Anaheim paying hundreds of dollars on hotel rooms hundreds of dollars on the tickets yes they the most hard-core Blizzard fans Diablo Darrius that's that is Diablos number one fan right there you see this is your typical Diablo fan does this guy play games on his phone no he looks at furry porn on his phone he doesn't play games at all as a game the community is generally speaking pretty hardcore they have modes that are called hardcore not gonna be in the mobile game by the way that's actually such a good idea what if they had a hardcore mode in diablo inferno so if your mobile network goes down your character just dies that's a great idea I love it yeah the guy is a comedian I know I know he's coming but it's fun either way yeah it's Inferno mode now either Blizzard is so far out of touch with their community that they thought this was going to go down well as the main event in the opening ceremony the main event on the main stage directly after it or disgusting money-grubbing greedy little investors just want to make a quick buck from the Diablo IP and gonna run Blizzard into the [ __ ] ground that is true that is so [ __ ] true I had to take a piss I'll be right back that's a great picture to stop it on I have something to say to all you people out there that played games on your [ __ ] phone you caused this you're the reason that we have to deal with this [ __ ] you're the problem with gaming mobile gamers are the worst kind of people on earth and [ __ ] you hey mobile gamers and I think this that take this a mobile gamers right up the ass huh huh [ __ ] you would you say nothing yeah chillin okay all right I'll take your word for it okay just a second we read some of these and Delmar the warrior best lawyer in vanilla hands-down will change the game forever as multiple items named after him how have you forgotten I don't remember him at all actually I I don't I'm sorry I'm the stream starting I'm sorry think about starting to get input in wow your opinion is good game to start yes you should still keep playing well even nowadays it's a better game and start playing than fortnight I don't watch the stream but the guy who's talking to you is trash okay thanks a lot appreciate that just never why this pair of male pants and ratchet you can buy at level 18 to have five strings five stam I'll take a look at that and then I've already seen people welcoming quality by changes in vanilla and hoping for transmog the community can't be better than this how can we expect blizzard to be no changes because people are saying that in bad faith and they're just saying it to make people like you mad okay they don't actually believe it I really don't know what the better of the two options is hopefully all the feedback and the uproar and the outrage that the Diablo community is causing well make these parties wake up what's Mossad make them realize that's like they don't like the I believe what they're trying to force down our throats that they can't just announce nothing for many years and then be like here's a mobile game by the way give us money now no you think Blizzard couldn't make things any worse no I don't you're wrong the people not in control of the Diablo YouTube channel had to decided to take it upon themselves to basically start censoring people in the comments section you can just go I mean I've run a YouTube channel it's pretty easy you just click on a comment you don't like open the thing and you press Delete yep I myself only ever deleted literal people just linking viruses but no they're just straight up deleting actual comments your boy here he's a hero great he'll Jacque oh he says 14 times I have been deleted so I say again no King rules forever my son after a great 20 years and many unforgettable memories we part ways you changed blizzard he was ranged so yeah 14 times this mean deleted and you might be thinking I'm just making this up ya know there's tons of people who have had their comments deleted like other youtubers posting comments on the diablo channel just having that completed you go to the social blade okay this is a scary thing you go to the social blade and you can track how many total comments have been posted on the video versus how many are currently there now as it stands at ty of at the time of making this video Blizzard have removed twenty five thousand and forty six comments twenty five thousand I don't have that good doing this boys are [ __ ] you we hate phone games we're to bring us the real [ __ ] that's what it is man here's the thing right is like Blizzard like I don't blame them for deleting comments because usually now here's why is because people have people are stupid sheep they're stupid sheep and if they read a comment that says it's bad they will think that it's bad so if there are no comments saying that it's bad they won't think that it's bad because they're just stupid sheep that'll believe the first thing that somebody tells them or the most popular comment because they want to go along with what the majority opinion is they're stupid sheep that never think for themselves so I actually don't blame Blizzard at all for getting rid of the comments I'm sorry to say but like I understand like I I've been on the internet for a long time I I know what I'm talking about it's completely accurate I don't blame them at all for this okay I don't blame anybody for doing that like that's why I'm not saying like just just Blizzard just like in general I don't I don't blame him for doing it yes I'm a paid actor some sort of moderation software going on there but no they're specifically going out and censoring reasonable comments now people are just basically if you don't know I mean as a stream right this is like the first rule of streaming is if you don't like a behavior you subtly deal with it or you just you should ignore it right and then it kind of just goes away or it doesn't get worse this sense of people you just multiply the issue and now everyone is there and they've just multiplied the problem that made it just so much worse for themselves and it's just yeah hey Blizzard delete this here's a scary part and I'm a little bit skeptical about this myself okay so if you go a little bit further and you look into this social a statistics of this video and social blade is extremely accurate site you can cross-reference and check with this website on whatever video you want go into a social blade comm check the use of videos and you'll see that the numbers line up except for Diablo The Immortal trailer o has a total social blade rating so the amount of times feel uploaded and downloaded it is 602 thousand times now if you look at the actual ratings on the video if you plus the dislikes and the lights together it adds up to four hundred and eleven thousand you are wondering what's going on work that's a total of one hundred and ninety one thousand votes that effectively have just disappeared and the spooky part is the votes that have disappeared and not up votes and down votes it's just down votes so 191,000 down votes have just vanished into thin air I myself being a skeptic in most things I am extremely skeptical and I like to think that I'm pretty [ __ ] woke but I'm not I'm just this burg I want to think that either it's a glitch with the system or some guy on the reddit you know Diablo right it's pretty toxic right now you know various forums out there where everyone's just writing about Diablo someone would have made some sort of a bot which creates accounts and down votes and then they would have subtracted the body the botted down votes right that's what I want in my head that's how I rationalize it but there's plenty of people on the forums and things saying Blizzard working together with YouTube Blizzard of working together with Google but I mean my question is if they were really working together and they someone says they repoed is that actually true that is true so that explains it so the trailer was repo'd in multiple times and because the trailer was reloading multiple times and it was called the same thing socialblade categorized it as the same video wrong okay okay so how is that wrong I actually I can't read I do literally people are just family so fast I literally can't even booting into try and make their video look better why not give it a positive ratio you know why not why not like at least give it to 50% it's I mean they've moved it like a fraction of a percent in terms of the rating right it's basically done nothing I mean hundred ninety one thousand downloads does lockdown bus right that's one of the glutes at the end of the day it's still an abysmal rating and I don't think just the skeptical part of me wants to believe that Blizzard isn't going that low but you guys can make up your minds for that I'm kind of like on the fence I don't know about don't like to believe that bliss aren't doing that or there's no shifty thing with YouTube because I don't I've never seen it anywhere else like if it was happening in other places and there was other videos where people are missing with the thing wouldn't Justin Bieber do that wouldn't like some of the big music companies pay for better ratings on this song so they you know how come it's just Blizzard that have they got like secret connection so we don't know about I don't know I'd like to take the tinfoil hat off and walking up the most obvious and reasonable solution upon this is probably the last major critical point I have okay and it's the fact that Blizzard are not making the game entirely themselves or at least acquiring the company and then building the game in America it's affect us they're working a partnership with a company called Nittis [ __ ] based in China and they make mobile games and if we look up or grow these games it's monka [ __ ] yes look at this Crusaders of light on Steam all right this game relevant to you similar games are played bliss online pretty much the worst game I think of everybody didn't play Quinn played bless online for nine hours what the [ __ ] did he do well I don't even know like what would you do was easy to nine hours on the loading screen maybe maybe he just got exposed nine hours on bless online I don't even get it yeah hopefully it was a sponsored stream or something guys cheese yeah maybe you left it open okay there's plenty of other reasons over here let's take off the tinfoil hat we cannot possibly go come to the conclusion that Quinn played and enjoyed bless online for over five minutes I I mean it was terrible that was that was a terrible mm oh yeah I think blizzard I think wow I think Diablo I think I don't think bless online okay then you look at the reviews for this Crusaders of light game 50% all the reviews were positive like then making games that are sub PI graphics aren't the worst let's just not recommendable or acquire the company that's going to make clearly that's just a way that it's like oh this is a loophole we can pay people in China it's a lot cheaper and it just it just comes off as cheap and tacky and it just feel like this is like it's just adding salt to the wound let's bless online it's a great game regardless let's try and talk about how you do it right let's talk how would you make a mobile game which let's be honest here it's inevitable they've already said we are a blizzard we're gonna be making more mobile games for the other IPS it's it's happening right mobile gaming is huge and we can stop it but there's a right way of doing it and a wrong way of doing it so let's talk about the right example of how to do it right blizzard get your pen and your paper out and take some notes so earlier on this year yet again at e3 both Easter the guys would make Elder Scrolls and fallout and all that other stuff who cares about the other games no one announced a new mobile game Elder Scrolls blades okay reaction people weren't you know super happy about it you know very very similar to how they reacted to you know Diablo and mortal initially very similar the crowd you know they weren't like shouting out and cheering and stuff okay very similar audience okay you don't remember they hasn't been a just a normal like Elder Scrolls game come out so it's like the parallels are insane okay this is like it's like a perfect script for Blizzard to follow it okay okay doesn't look that bad people weren't too happy but after they announced the mobile game they then put on a trailer for Elder Scrolls sex the new game they didn't specify win bones miss it was just like just a panning shot over some mountains and they said Elder Scrolls 6 it was literally just a teaser but that basically tells me they know okay our audience clearly is the high core gamers right they don't ya just want some mobile game but they're up we do want to go into the mobile market we want to show them that we haven't just throwing them to the side and just completely ditch them and we're just trying to cash in and get money with a mobile game looks for that I mean this balanced mobile is they're doing it for the money right let's be real here if you're trying to make a game right and you want it to be the best it possibly can be and you'll it really love making games you're gonna do on the platform that is the best and in my opinion that is a PC and I think that on average I think people would have that same opinion it's not on a mobile phone regardless they knew people wouldn't be too satisfied with just a mobile game they don't want to have the franchise force on the mobile phone and then you announced let's go six so now yeah everybody's happening if you go to the trailer for the blades Oh would you look at that 17 K up folks 3.1 K downloads people weren't even that mad I guarantee you if Blizzard had followed this same script and they had just announced the stupid mobile game for the habló right announced a stupid game mm-hmm and then just had who's completely rottens put some [ __ ] dungeons through your [ __ ] some dead guys maybe and then Diablo for coming soon instantly the outrage that the feeling like we are just kidding spitting odors bridge they're just thrown to the side like people just trying to force these money [ __ ] making machines down on growth it's all instantly it's like oh cool we get a mobile game to mess around with whatever blizzard go into the mobile market but they haven't forgotten about us and they are making what we actually want the best possible Diablo game it can be on the platform that we wanted on computers or whatever they can ported to consoles I don't care you get the idea and everything would have just gone down so much better now I'm gonna say some wild [ __ ] which might trigger a few people and actually make some people mad we'll see I don't think mobile games are necessarily always a bad thing and I think there was a place for mobile gaming especially within ok blizzards ok realm I think okay they can make mobile games for the other eye piece and they could honestly be a good thing and a positive thing and a great example is a supplementary mobile game that Blizzard made for Warcraft we control your garrison followers yes from your phone so what missions right before you woke up real [ __ ] before you gonna go to sleep you could send you guys to missions I used the app religiously throughout Legion and it was extremely convenient in really handy app and it was just too all-around and she felt kind of good right now you can take this one step further right you can take this one step further and take it to another level they could say pay in the enttec or hire some guys from the antic I don't know how this works but effectively they can make battle pet go what should it be like will you walk around you go cats ok one of the best would then be synched to the main game view from the supplementary mobile game so you go around your camp you capture like a squirrel okay you now have the squirrel in your main game vice versa and you could obviously get the squirrel oh we're game without having played at all it would just be a sub okay while you're out then and you're doing stuff yeah while you're outside I know it's concern right it's crazy right you come to that geyser buddy go Pokemon go vote today to McConnell that wasn't funny most of your jokes aren't funny anymore well good that means that it was funny because the original wasn't one wasn't funny either do the same thing with Diablo you could do the same thing with Diablo you could basically allow people to play the Diablo game I'm just joking by the way I'm something within the game which would then supplement the main game so say you've got some achievements in the game you unlock some cosmetic wings on your main game vice versa you could even go as far to say that if they can balance it correctly you could even farm Keystone's or farm you know like I don't know they're gonna have rift keys in Diablo 4 find something in the mobile game which would then transfer over to the actual game some that would be great and I feel like you can do that first so many of the other abilities are dwarf can actually just be a genuinely fun and cool experience he's made it this far into the video you're the flippin man or woman or whatever whatever you identify as I really do appreciate you whatever appreciate you spinning it's like what does this like 20 20 minutes long that's huge actually too long I had to cut down a little bit there are more points that I would like to articulate further but it's kind of hard to do in YouTube so I would suggest if you have any questions or if you want to know more check out my twitch stream because I pretty much be able to answer anything you want there like literally you can ask me anything you know I'll do my best all right through it 26 gonna be pretty spooky but I'll do my best to answer it also discord I haven't asked me anything section that I also check regularly so you can check that [ __ ] out and there's also code hate on Diablo people and stuff it's good here's always you know I use the opposite and you could be you know there are you're one of it people I think they called shills now people are party gonna call me a shield oh yeah depending mobile games a little bit true appreciate you guys know if you view commenting on the video regardless of what you say appreciate you but thank you for watching we'll see you next time whenever the hell it is maybe seven months from now maybe tomorrow peace well then I do you think somebody is getting fired over the Diablo announcement no they're not firing anybody are you really I bet they I don't know mobile games have a huge potential dude for the market I mean mobile games are really blowing up there it makes complete business sense to do that III think that you're right but like I want I think the reason why mobile games are so popular and like why all the companies want to do them is because they take so much left so much less development time they take so much less development time and that's pretty much like the main reason that I would say and also they can make a lot of money it's not really about them making a lot of money it's more that they're able to make a lot of money while at the same time not put a lot of money into it right because like let's say you spend a million dollars and you make two million dollars well you made a million dollars but let's say you spend a hundred thousand dollars and you make 1.5 million dollars well you just made 1.4 million dollars so it's a matter of like degree and like overhead versus profit and I think the amount of profit that they get at it why is that so small
