Diablo 4 players say \u201cno thanks\u201d to Twitch drops featuring pricey horse skin Activision BlizzardBlizzard plans on hosting a Diablo 4 \u201cSupport a Streamer\u201d campaign, with one of the Twitch drops basically being a $10 horse skin. With Diablo 4\u2019s launch quickly approaching, Blizzard continues to find ways to promote the experience. The company\u2019s partnered with fast-food chains in recent months, with KFC offering early beta access in March to those who purchased the Double Down sandwich. And late last year, Burger King Japan celebrated the new title with a spicy burger named in Lilith\u2019s honor. As many would expect, Blizzard has also joined forces with Twitch for the impending release. The studio will host a \u201cSupport a Streamer\u201d campaign next month, which should include several Twitch drops. But one, in particular, already has players skeptical of its value. Diablo 4 Twitch drops include a horse skin worth $10 A Reddit user and Twitch streamer has shared a screenshot of a message Blizzard sent regarding its Support a Streamer Program. From June 5 through July 2, the Twitch campaign will reward viewers with the \u201cexclusive Diablo IV Primal Instinct Mount for purchasing two subscriptions across participating channels.\u201d Subscriptions cost $4.99 a pop, meaning this specific mount will cost Diablo 4 players $10, or $12 for those who pay on mobile. Some Redditors have already voted to sit out on this particular promotion. \u201cSo that\u2019s basically twelve dollars for a scary-looking horse?\u201d one user asked. Said another person, \u201cSo basically spend money, get mount. No thanks, I\u2019m good.\u201d The thread features a few other \u201cno thanks\u201d comments from disinterested fans. \u201cNo thanks. Any third-party bulls**t can f**k right off.\u201d Others seem even more skeptical of the marketing tactic, with one person arguing: \u201cThis exists to incentivize big Streamers to play the game, who might not do so otherwise or for longer than they normally would. This is basically Blizzard outsourcing marketing costs to the fans.\u201d Community Lead PezRadar joined the conversation to clear up some of the confusion about Diablo 4\u2019s Twitch drops. The developer told fans, \u201cWe will have standard viewing Drops requirements as well. Not just this.\u201d What the other Twitch drops may entail remains to be seen. However, more information should surface sooner rather than later, given that Diablo 4 launches on June 2.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
