BlizzCon 2018 were anticipating "Diablo 2 Resurrected" announcements

My first exposure to "feeding" was Fate/Grand Order, which was originally published in Japan in July of 2015 and earned a total of 4 billion dollars globally in the year 2019. In order to ensure that D2R Items a character is the very best it can be I had to purchase copies of each. Then, when a particular banner rolled around I paid over 300 euros for the character I'd been lusting over throughout the years. But I didn't get the identical copies I needed to fully appreciate the full potential of this character. The rates for the most valuable 5-star characters now being around 1%, it was no surprise I never managed to obtain a duplicate of the character during my time using the game (which I've since uninstalled). As of July 2021, Fate/Grand Order was the seventh highest-rated mobile game of all time, putting it ahead of Konami's Puzzle and Dragons. It also, I'm guessing, is also a gacha game.

During the GDC 2021 presentation, Genshin Impact developer Hoyoverse (previously Mihoyo) outright admitted that the method used to create characters was to get the most money possible from its fans. This year's Raiden Shogun and Kokomi characters reruns that took place in March 2022 alone earned the company more than $33 million in revenue.

The moment was immortalized by humor and memes, the bulk of it rooted in disappointed fans' expectations: Fans who attended BlizzCon 2018 were anticipating "Diablo 2 Resurrected" announcements. But it also stemmed from an old stigma about mobile games in the West in the United States, where the use of smartphones as gaming platforms is much slower than the other regions of the world.

Since that time, "Diablo Immortal" has boosted its reputation, as test results from beta and alpha versions proved the game to be a full-throated, traditional Diablo experience. (It was also helpful that Blizzard made the decision to release its game onto PC.) Diablo is a Diablo series is one of the most influential games in contemporary game design. It has popularized gameplay loops that focus on acquiring random "loot" to help your character become more strong. "Diablo 2," that was just remastered, cemented this loop, while "Diablo 3" which Cheng also worked on, refined and D2 Resurrected Ladder Items improved it.
