Diablo Immortal: It probably costs 100,000 euros to equip a character

Diablo Immortal has been available for PC and mobile for a few days now. The new installment in the popular Diablo series uses a free-to-play model, meaning players can download the title for free, however, there are some microtransactions that help the game make money. It’s not uncommon these days for a game to rely entirely on microtransactions. For example, the new MMORPG Lost Ark uses a similar model, but with Diablo Immortal (buy now ) Blizzard may have overshot a little. As YouTuber Bellular News found out, fully gearing and min-maxing your character can get very expensive pretty quickly.

Don’t you have 100,000 euros?

The core problem here is probably the legendary gems. In addition to the normal equipment and the character level, these are the most important aspect to increase the strength of your own character. However, players who do not want to spend money on the title simply cannot obtain the strongest legendary gems at the moment, as they are tied to the monetization of the game.

Like Belluar in a new video under the title “Blizzard’s New Game Will Completely DESTROY Their Reputation,” it would cost around $100,000 to fully kit out a character in the current market. Additionally, Matt and Michael of Bellular News feel that the legendary gem system is deliberately very convoluted. Even paying players are not guaranteed to receive them, but have to be lucky when opening the game’s loot boxes.
