Diablo Immortal has Blizzard\u2019s lowest-rated user score on Metacritic The Diablo Immortal Metacritic score currently counts as the third lowest for Blizzard Entertainment in terms of user reviews. Originally announced as a mobile-only experience at BlizzCon 2018, Diablo Immortal recently hit mobile platforms and PC, serving as the franchise\u2019s first on-the-go RPG. Diablo Immortal has already proven quite divisive among fans, too, thanks in large part to its extensive microtransactions. In fact, Diablo Immortal\u2019s in-game purchases are so aggressive that one person calculated players could spend tens of thousands of dollars fully maxing out a single character. It should come as no surprise, then, that discourse surrounding the newly released Diablo game continues to vacillate between generally favorable and negative. Diablo Immortal\u2019s Metacritic score takes a hit While the iOS Metascore from critics on Metacritic (via GamingBolt) presently sits at a healthy 75, Diablo Immortal\u2019s user score is a meager 0.5. The user score counts ratings from more than 3,000 players, many of whom describe the title in terms such as \u201cdisgraceful,\u201d \u201cgambling simulator,\u201d and \u201cinsanely predatory.\u201d As a result, the mobile and PC experience now boasts the lowest user score for a Blizzard-developed game on Metacritic. World of Warcraft Classic: Burning Crusade Classic on PC constitutes the lowest to date, with a user score of 0.5. Diablo Immortal has now tied that mark and threatens to dip even further. Because Diablo Immortal launched less than a week ago, the user rating will undoubtedly continue to rise and fall in the days and weeks ahead. The pay-to-win tactics aside, Diablo Immortal appears to have won over at least a contingent of franchise faithful such as Shroud. Still, many hold out hope that Blizzard will better balance the game to make for a much more enjoyable experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
