Thanks Asmon for watching and sharing with your community, and thanks to all the love from others in the comments. If D4 is not P2W I'll see you there.
The legend had spoken
Really felt sad for you. You are a legend
here's hoping it isn't.
The true rift guardian - asmonbald vs Raxx
You always have the best videos and feed backs on Diablo. Your feat of streaming for 10 years will be legendary!
It’s sad to see such a dedicated player absolutely heartbroken over this joke of a game. He put in all that time and effort just to get catfished.
I mean look after all this you can't feel sorry for him, the writing was on the wall in bright neon paint. Not to shit on him, but he's one of the reasons why Blizzard will never change, he has been beaten down multiple times, and still has faith blind faith on the company and will consume everything and anything they put out. Blizzard has such a mental/emotional hold on ppl its fucking insane. He can't be happy playing this shit over and over. It's such a toxic one way relationship.
He suffered so that we may live. Praise be…
@@19ryuusei I don't want to agree with you, but you're right, so I agree. Haha.. I don't want to agree, because it's extremely sad to watch. I gave up Wow years back and gave up blizzard one year ago. It's been a great choice so far. The only blizzard exposure I get is through Asmon which I watch mainly not for the wow content. I'm looking greatly forward to his FFXIV coverage again.
@@19ryuusei exactly; they didnt even fool him; you really think ALpha was going to be left intact and get "better" or "more fun"? Like, dude how long have you been playing games?
Sad?Take too serious.I love diablo,i play immortal f2p, and i enjoy a lot. I dont care if somebody have better gear becouse he pays for it. The problem with Asmon is he want to be the best,and he cant without paying.
Raxx is a good man. He feels exactly how all diablo players feel as they love the ip and annoyed but how its being made into a turd
Raxx is great and he helped bring out maxroll which is an insanely solid resource for D2R, D3, etc. I unfortunately have been able to detect he's got that same "gotta keep up this Blizzard/brand friendly sheen" just like Rhykker. So you know you're getting censored or otherwise babyfied points of view on epic failures and injustices etc sometimes. Outside of that though he's the one streamer I gave my prime sub to and I do wish him the best of luck and a Blizzard funded payday he's followed all the rules and worked hard for it at least. MVP Diablo community member! He loves this IP as much as us and just wants it to be amazing again. D4 don't fumble this plz!
@@FlameMage2 i get how they want/need to be brand friendly but think about the alternatives, they wouldnt have had the power to effect the game thoughout the years for the better as they did... theres always a price.
They have enough respect from fans regardless, they probably would have gained less if they werent who they were, wouldnt have good loyal fans like you maybe.
Raxx is such a unique guy. So good vibes, so good at the game, so epic. He deserves much better
He had alot of negative vibes while streaming immortal, that says everythig! Because as u said, he is such a postive guy but this game made him a bit mad :o
@@xQTx well no surprise, it was like trying to win a marathon and his competition didnt run but rided motorbikes.
@@miafiolekova5817 rode* rided lmfao
Theres a guy who is even better at the game, he has spent over 100k already
@@nikelas6 thanks gramar nazi, just an FYI english is my 5th language so excuse me that i dont get the gramar correct
Raxx is a legend in Diablo community. I totally expected this level of commitment from him.
He typed up a professional 19 page document about the game. It's dedicated obsessive
100%
Yap he have too much info about the game but all he said is true..
@@ununius7436 That was feedback for Blizzard when he was beta testing the game.
@@OriNyte He said he wrote another 8 page document post launch.
Poor Raxx, he's a really good content creator and a true blizz fan. This video broke my heart.
Raxx is literally one of the best info content creators for any game anywhere, you should see his comment section everyone agrees if he was doing what he was doing for any other game hed be over 500k subs but he loves Diablo franchisr and blizzard 😑
Raxx is an amazing guy. Absolutely love him. Spent lots of time watching him blast D3 and other games on his twitch stream.
Yet it has always perplexed me why he's so damn loyal and dedicated to "new" Blizzard - it's actually kinda sad.
I mean how can he not see that this whole game is designed to grab every single cent from all the whales and absolutely noone gives a crap about f2p players having fun or progressing?
he broke up w/ u?
Maybe this will be awake up call to those weird Blizzard supporters who pretend like nothing is wrong.
Raxx is a legend! He was just hoping blizzard didnt do what it looks like they did. He gave it a fair shake and did what he could.
Raxx is amazing. He’s one of the most talented and intelligent Diablo creators out there.
Don't need talent to play diablo for 10 years 🤣
@@Exof He didn't say Raxx was intelligent _because_ he has played Diablo for a very long time. Speaking of talent. You don't seem to be very talented
@@g8le how do you know im not talented ask your mum 😂
"This guy" is one of the greatest Diablo-Players in the world and an inspiration for a whole army of Diablo-Players.... Iam glad to see, Raxx finally came out with that clip and that statement!!
Blizzard had such great players in their community that had many great insights and suggestions for their games but completely ignored.
this is really sad
@@zeadex4257 pp
So many people who are too deep and are willing to look past just about anything for a good game*
The sad reality is the Blizzard we knew and loved is dead and gone, and all that remains is a greedy husk of its former self, puppeteering and parading the corpses of once-beloved IPs to make a quick buck.
What a waste!!!
Blizzard doesn't deserve a drop from this kind of loyalt and love, it's really sad.
100% they deserve it
@@laidtorest387 you mean *DON’T* rite?
@@mwfcod0932 no. I definitely mean that they do deserve this drop in loyalty and love. They’ve done nothing but ignore players and scam us for the last decade.
After activision take over its all about money
It is called addiction and exploitation.
22:25 "yeah that's why it's called diablo immortal because you have to be immortal to be able to play the game to its fullest extent" couldn't have said it better.
Mad respect to this man. I'm hoping he gets to do more alpha testing for games and have his feedback taken into account. It seems like he'd be a huge asset to any company wanting to make a game that puts gameplay first.
Proud to say I have and never will be part of the problem playing Diablo immortal.
Amen brother
Agreed
Same
All in all gaming is going into dystopian of monetization. Then gaming was all fun, now it's just how much money can you pay to have an advantage and it's being normalized. it's sad to me because gaming is the only hobby I have. also people who know the game's predatory but still giving money, what's the point of complaining about the game if you already gave them what they want.
Same.
Can't wait to hear Stew's response to this guy's video.
Raxx seems like a cool guy and he explains things pretty well too
Rhykker and Raxx literally holding the D3 community on their backs. Raxx literally remakes the exact same video every new season of D3 for newbies and returning players and reiterates the same information without sounding like an ass.
Raxxantrerax is awesome
If they loose him, it really is lost.
lose*, not loose
Rax is a great guy and probably the most knowledgeable person in the Diablo community
Definitely… him or Rhykker.
Lmao ok Diablo Fan base is like 10 Million 🤣😂
@@pyroclastixx6969 I like Rhykker but he really isn't an unbiased party regarding Blizzard. I watched his video "Is Diablo Immortal P2W?" and its just sad how he tries to not directly attack Blizzard. So Rhykker is cool, just don't go to him if you want a real opinion regarding Blizzard games.
@@Harrikiri I hadn’t watched that video by him but I do typically watch his videos if I’m looking for a seasonal build I potentially want to run or d4 news. To be fair tho he does typically just regurgitate what is listed on maxroll so I guess you can say he’s just a webpage of information and not actual hand crafted stuff.
This is how these games work. First they do whale war with in server, then they do server vs server. By the time you do server vs server wars, whales are so invested in the game that they spend more money to beat other server.
The game is designed to get as much whales as possible by having multiple servers, and then combine servers to have whales compete each other for more money
Also the worst thing about this is that, people who loves blizzard and Diablo ip are the one getting eaten by whales.
The whole purpose of free to play players are there to be jealous and envious of the whales. Nothing more than peasants looking up to riches
Yea, this is what will happen. This what they do in asia. They will find a way to manipulate you and at later stage target your anxiety until you feel bad if you are not buying. You gonna buy and feel good about it and safe with that virtual strength power of yours.
Whale wars
I've seen this in asian mobile games for over 10 years now. It's a very standard practice, people call these games "pig farms". Amazing to see Blizzard copy their practices 1:1. I would have never believed this if you told me back then.
There's one thing I'm thankful for Diablo immortal for, if it wasn't for Diablo immortal I'd never be playing PoE and enjoying it so much
I tried PoE and have not been able to get in to it..difficulty level starts pretty high, the giant sphere grid thing is too much..then there's something about a crafting system and that plus 8 million stats or ratings that can be on gear..and I think there are more power systems than that. It's just so overcomplicated, ugh. Oh yeah, also the fact you need a loot filter addon to play is fucking ridiculous.
@@Veganerd_ its not that hard, how you thing and you dont need to be absolutly hardcore thinker. Find build what you visualy like, look some guide and play. I switch to PoE 2 years ago from diablo and never ever again open it. Its borring AF.
@@farmsalot1233 Ehhhh I’d rather play a real ARPG with actual depth and spend $60 on a costume then spend $600 to achieve nothing in Diablo Immortal while pretending thumbing through two dozen useless menus is deep.
@@Veganerd_ I tried PoE in beta.. hated how zoomed in it was.. Tried again later on.. the 3rd party skill tree shit wouldn't work on my pc for some reason.. Now that people use a function on the PoE site to show the passive skill tree for builds I've tried it again and really enjoying it.. Although I just finished act1 it's definitely better than the alternatives atm. Last Epoch is another really promising ARPG I've played a decent amount but it's still early access and they haven't added multiplayer yet.
@@farmsalot1233 lol 🤣 its not over complicated, Yea there are many crafting metods and that can be confusing little bit for new players, but honestly , new players dont need them. Only what you really need is cap resistans and choose what build you actually want to play. Like tanky with maxing armor and HP or evasion etc… its same like every ARPG… every time when i start new game i was looking other player what they do, its normal. Its harder then other games, but this is reason why this game is so good. Because you learning everyday something new. I play PoE maybe 2 years +- and i never ever again open Diablo. Diablo is 1 week game. Full build in 2 days GR 100+ and same shit all the time. Borring AF and Immortal is F joke.
I love raxx hes a great d3/d2 creator and super nice and helpful to everyone. I know a lot of people hate D3 but I and many others love it and still play it to this day even though blizzard mostly abandoned it.
He put himself through this torture because he wanted to prove that he can beat the whale as a Free to Play Player. But it took him this long to realize hey couldn't catch up...
@@Tory-JJ why's that?
I also think it was the point of it too
He probably could beat some paying customers... But this game has infinite spending potential for infinite power.
@@Tory-JJ i mean he is not that wrong there is a chance that where a game that have paid item or equip, fast progess stuff, still can beaten with f2p acc is its play smart enough. its just harder, taken example like Yu gi oh master duel, as long there is some RNG factor and strategy you can build base on that, its do able. but sadly diablo have no chance for that. he try hard enough at least we can appreciate that.
@@Tory-JJ like Asmongold.
I love this reaction video. Raxx is amazing
Asmon, i get how you do salty humor on your stream, but you gotta realise that he's putting in the work to show how it actually is being a f2p player. This needs to be shown and him making the sacrifice with time he'd have used on gaming anyway is just nice of him.
nah, it's better for streamers to spend thousands of dollars and then complain about the game's monetization. that's bigger brain /s
Raxx actually understands Asmon's stance and he doesn't take it the wrong way - unlike you, for some godforsaken reason
Remember kids never ever give your loyalty and trust to a corporation they will always screw you over
AMEN!!!!
Nah theres compaby that still good while u will know if the company is becoming shit when theres alot of monetisation
@Kzn Nzn cyberpunk can be good game if they just delay it until its truly polished but noooo they have too release unfinished game made the fans lose their expectation and trust too them
@Kzn Nzn Yep how a company loses its soul. Shareholders like hatchlings crying for money. Corporate entity.
Beta is an "elite" live. It's designed to get people addicted and locked into supporting the game. Simultaneously they use it LIGHTLY to fix bugs sometimes.
Lol asmo, you're a good guy and have good insight, but rax isn't waking up, he was painfully aware this going in. He has a very good grasp of the game and had ideas that could have made the game much better.
And I find it funny stating why would a content creator waste their time playing free to play? Well cause his audience likes it lol. He is basically working and being paid to play immortal. He could have paid like you did to make content show people what the game is ... he is just doing it in reverse,by playing free and showing the struggle.
You should try and get David Brevik, creator of Diablo 1 & 2, on stream and discuss the current state of Diablo.
Bro, so much psychology involved. This inspired me to do some reading. Thanks for working hard on your content!
You can tell by seeing his face he is sad (he tested a full game, uncapped). But come on, be honest. it's just a d3 clone on phone but you have to paid for progress
That's exactly what it is. Minus the Witch Doctor. And with a smattering of the online mmo-ness we'll get in D4.
D3 is by far the best diablo, even if you consider all the issues It has.
The grinding means something there, and if you play a lot, you also get very good gear, on top of high paragons, then you can play any class, or build you wish with It.
Greater rifts are also so nice for speedruns, and for pushing, definitely the best endgame content by miles.
D3 is my favorite diablo. D2 was amazing for its time but its certainly showing its age now. I know its hard for some people to believe but there is a community that really enjoys playing D3 still to this day and raxx is one of the best content creators for it.
Obviously DI is complete garbage but it could have been something better. No reason for anyone to play DI.
@@HalobravoJJGaming Try Tchernobog and Belzebub, those are mods for D1, they are absolutely crazy.
They even added crafts, new sets and uniques, even new classes like necro, barbarian, assassin, and spellblade.
Also new features like waypoints, no more losing your gear when you die etc... on the other hand, there are difficulty spikes which require to know the game a bit.
There is an active discord, and also a game server.
If you are a diablo series fan, you will like It for sure, solo, or with some friends ( up to 8 players online in a game )
@@Dead_Hitori Nah, you are just bad at It, trust me, D3 is the funniest game ever when you know how to play It and compete for ladder.
Got a Diablo immortal ad right before this video started
@@Greg_Stache Blizzard spent some of that whale money on targeted ads to find more whales 🤣
Man said. Work smarter.. Not harder.
That was a helpful infografic you drew ot brought things into focus
Damn… I feel bad for this guy. He legit seems like a good and smart guy too, but Blizz is sooo deep, even their balls are inside and he only felt it after he got ruptured and on his way out to the hospital. And you know what Blizz don’t GAF.
that insult to him was unnecessary
@@sergei9912 eh Asmon was being sarcastic - he isn't trying to roast Raxx or put him down
For those curious, as a F2P Player, the reason I play any Mobile/P2W games with no intention of every paying is:
1. Some mechanic it has has caught my interest. Whether it be whatever the Main Engagement is or some nostalgia aspect of it. Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel serves as an example of this, I've long since gotten past the initial freebie stage, but I like dueling, so I'll play and continue to build decks.
2. Time killing. If I've got a 15 or 30 min break of down time, trying to start up a bigger game of something isn't really feasible as it might go over. As a F2P player, at worst, I'll have lost some stamina, that will have refilled the next time I open the game.
I am not a Diable Immortal player nor will ever be, but here is some reasoning why at least one F2P player will waste their time on a P2W game.
for me it's the community.
Because most mobile mmo has auto feature people don't really play it.
And because of that, the guild chats are mostly active. It's just fun to talk with people with similar interest.
True, I'm doing this too, I thank myself for not being competitive enough to spend on mobile games, because in the end the service will end / not forever vs buying a copy of a game and keep it with me forever
Master duel is kind of nice tho, you can easily build a cheesy or meta deck for free and simply grind/farm everything else after a long time while winning... or just focus on building what you like and be fine. I dare say it is "perfect", only lacking some way to play drafts and structure decks more often in events.
(The idea of having a complete card gallery in YGO shouldnt ever be considered in any way)
The only way to fix this is for everyone to walk out silently at the next expo
imagine being a fan of certain company and showed so much dedication to them only to realize they fucked him over
poor this guy
Sounds like being a Cleveland Browns fan.
Asmongold used to do the same thing lol. hell, he will still buy the next WoW expansion and play it faithfully while bitching and whining about Blizzard endlessly
I still appreciate Asmons open, maybe a bit bitter and sarcastic, but nonetheless absolute true approach to this rising problem.
Raxx is a super nice guy, but heartbroken about what Blizzard did here. Sure, predatory mobile games are around like forever, but not used with a much loved franchise like Diablo.
I have the feeling many Diablo fans thought this is some kind of Diablo 3.5 until 4 is released. Now, its time to wake up and see what this mess really is and have very, very low expectations about Diablo 4.
Some bitterness from me, nothing will change, the majority of plankton will keep on playing without knowing or being aware of the problem because "I´ve only spent 50 dollars, its not pay to win, its 800% value!" Theres nothing on this world that will change this, so dont waste any time. As soon as this is released in China, the numbers will go through the roof even further and Bobby is smiling.
All you can do its to stay away from this predatory scam, call a spade a spade and have fun in POE.
The fact that he actually thought someone at Blizzard reads these things... I have a friend that says proudly he has been "carefully chosen by Blizzard" to "test" the games when any beta comes out... He keeps saying he needs to dedicate his time to provide feedback that will help the future of game development... It's just sad to see.
What's worse is seeing that people hold onto the memory of old blizzard and hoping that memory will come back into today's blizzard,like man it's not even the same dev team from old sadge times
You can enjoy the game as a F2P as long as you think of it this way: you are the NPC and the whales are the players
He got to see what could've been. It's like an ex. You always remember the good times kinda thing. Hes in love with what the game was and could be. So it's hard to walk away because he's blinded to how things just are. Its really sad. And like that poor dude indeed. This hurt a good few people though. I dont play this game really. I played some of D2 I believe. It was fun. I got a few quotes from the game too. rakanishu! Moo mer mah and such. I'm sorry that this company did you like this. I hope somehow four will be kinda ok.
This is a perfect analogy for modern society. Doesn’t matter how talented you are. If you don’t have money you’ll always be plankton 😂
At least you can opt out of playing this one.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@JohnYoo39 you could opt out in the real world as well arguably. It would have a more permanent nature but still .. :)
@@Morpheusarrow No need to try I am sure being homeless is just as miserable as it looks!
"WHY YOU DO THIS?" bcuz this guy gives us a good inside and perspective on a game of how it works, not just by spending money, he's thorough and kinda of an authority against this p2w movement, cuz "mobile gaming is just a different vibe" andies can say anything they want, and your poing of things means shit, if you're both not on a same page. I dived deep into a pile of blizz shit and get my DH to a p30 and 1.2.k CR just to get a perspective, i gained knowledge and quit the game for good, so "its a different vibe" andies cant say shit against my oppinion. And also there's some type of people who'd say "but whats ur suggegstion", well this guy give em penty. Guys in chat who say "he's a moron" are fucking losers.
@@vicc6790 Whats the reason playing Lost Arc and shilling for it, if its same p2w shit. I mean if game's good, people dont mind it then, and if you play DI u're wasting ur time? i got some knowledge i wouldnt gotten otherwise, cuz all p2w games are shit in my peprspective, and im just a blizzard fan (barely) and want to know better what im dealing with. I did it probably cuz i still care for blizz, there's plenty of people who's wasting their time in WoW still (like the dude in a video).
It feels cruelly ingenious to have pay to win mechanics in a game with pvp. Him saying he did 5% to a whale with multishot and the whale did 90% with an auto attack makes me think that that whale felt amazing dominating another opponent like that. And the worrisome thing is being the f2p player being dominated in pvp, and you know you could be so much stronger and possibly beat the guy that dominated you if you spent money.
He's right that f2p players aren't the target audience, whales are. And that pvp example is exactly the right way to reward whales and turn minnows into whales.
Being able to wreck whales was part of what kept me hooked to Battlefield play4free (until I finally dropped it cause it was toxic). Whales' extra perks were annoying but not overwhelming, and even cheater couldn't do much to someone who knew the maps and drew tanks/helis. I don't think devs did it on purpose, but it was more than possible (just frustrating) to win against whales, sometimes even when your team had one and the opposite team had four.
The worst thing is, that there are a lot of players who go to pvp and see these whales smashing everyone and they think to themselves "hmmm, I would like to be that powerful, let me buy this 50 dollar orb chest, maybe I will become as strong as him" and then don't realise that "small spenders" can never win or even compare to these whales. So he just ends up spending like 50-100 dollars a month to become more powerful just to never realise that this small amount of money gets him nowhere. And I bet, there's 1000 times more of these guys than there are of actual whales. And these guys are the ones bringing most of the cash in, just because there is so many of them. And the best part is, the game isn't even out yet in China and even a better part is, there is a big possibility, it will never come out in China due to SUDDEN regulations by Chinese government 😅
@@markomancikas This. It's like anchovy vs great blue. Different levels.
Whale Wars is exactly right..
The answer to literally every question as to why something was done a certain way (like the caps) is that their psychological research team found that increased overall spending. The only 19 page report they give a shit about is the one from the monetization R&D department.
This is heart breaking in it's way.
rax is a paragon of the diablo and larger blizzard gaming community
im hoping he puts the game down for good
Poor Rax he's an amazing diablo content creator, he's so flat about how this game has turned out
When did pre-order become pre-purchase btw?
I am huge fan of Raxx, the #1 guy I watch on YT. Watched this video on his channel first, very cool to see it again from your perspective. Thanks Asmon for showcasing this video, Raxx puts so much effort into his work, good to see it displayed here.
Exactly my thoughts on the game. Pre registered the game and was super excited to play it, had lots of fun for the first few days and thought the game had a lot of potential. Then I finished the story and realized that the whole "endgame" is basically a d*ck measuring contest aka who can spend the most amount of money and time on a game that has barely any depth to its character building.
Raxx is an champ, that love the Diablo world. He deserves so much more :)
I love how the ad for this video IS Diablo Immortal
And right after the Diablo Imm. ad. Just perfect.
I was sitting here the whole time muttering "oh my sweet, sweet summer child...".
Raxx is actually a big name on diablo community along with Wudijo and Bluddshed, blizz actually showed some respect towards them in the past, idk how are they seen by blizzard now.
True... Probably the different dev of this game didn't really care. :/
"Raxx who?"
Dam i love your content, u make me smile every day and it means so much for me i just want to say THANK YOU and never change :D
I just love how Diablo immortal was the ad before this video, that is all.
Rax is the man when it comes to diablo
I know you do not enjoy D3 Asmon, but Raxx reigns over there. On Season starting nights he blasts 24hrs+ and has all sorts of different Rank 1's, he is a pleasure to watch and play along. It is so interesting watching Asmon comment on Raxx. It felt like I introduced my bestie from High School to my new College friend and they were judging one another (Nah I know streamers are not my friends, but I'm currently in isolation, I just am writing a thesis atm and have no time for actual friends, also there's still the blood plague outside). On a separate note, can you imagine a world where someone actually read and was allowed to work on that 20 pages, and actually improved the game in the direction that Raxx had imagined.
phases of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance
-Rex is in the bargaining phase right now. he's halfway home.
IT SOUNDS LIKE A 800% VALUE FOR ME BOYS! IM IN!!!
Happy Rax is getting the recognition he deserves
Raxxanterax is such a good guy!
Grind, grind, grind, and when you think you’re done, grind some more
I really do feel bad for him, he wanted to love this game so much and this is what he got.
This is sad and funny at the same time . He wrote 25 pages of research how to make the game better and more fun for dedicated players like himself , not realizing that the actual strategy from the corporate level of Activision-Blizzard is making it just barely fun enough to open your wallet .
This is like watching an abused housewife making the argument that their husband has a good side.
Too bad this guy and millions of others will continue to support Blizzard. Just encouraging the cycle of abuse...and paying them for it
DI ad before and after this video lol
I don't think Blizzard wants Demon Hunters to move and shoot. Moving and shooting requires a very minor amount of skill, and as we've learned before, you can't have too much skill in a mobile game or whales may have the potential to lose.
Also react to the south park freemium clip Asmon!
Come on, dude. Have some respect for Raxx.
He was part of the team that lifted "Teo" up on rank 1 of the first Diablo 2 Resurrected ladder.
He has been one of the best and highest ranked Diablo 3 players for many, many years over and over.
Yes, he was blinded by Blizz, but he is a genuine Diablo legend and you interrupting his every sentence felt pretty disrespectful at times.
I mean.. It's a reaction video.. If he just watched it without.. reacting.. people would be complaining that he's just leeching content (they will say that anyways). But yeah Rax is great. He's one of the only diablo streamers I watch.. Extremely helpful guy. He even makes weekly challenge rift guides for NA and EU D3 players who might be struggling with the build that week.
"he dared to dream". I'm crying, laughing as well but mostly crying.
He said "go buy some money "😂 , why haven't I thought of that
Raxx is making an actual comprehensive analysis on how pay to win the game is and Asmongold is just talking trash over him.
The guy obviously loves the franchise and even did unpayed work testing the game, show some respect.
Facts. Raxx could roll asmon in any game (without f2p)
I feel like he wasn't going to hard on him he could've been harder he's just baffled cuz he believed in a company that doesn't give a damn
Ok grandpa, should tell us like 3 weeks ago😂
Respect what the fact that he respects his time so little that does unpaid beta testing and QA? Or that he respects himself so much he is willing to be food for whales in PvP and play this time waster of a game?
Sure you can give props to him for sticking with the game and doing all this testing to show people how bad it is but respect? No way
@@stefan1360 The guy's job is to make content about the game. But unlike Asmon, he goes deep and explores every aspect of the game to give us an in-depth view of it.
Asmon just plays a character that keeps repeating "OmG pAy tWo WIn BruH!".(I know Asmon is not stupid, but this part he plays annoys me sometimes)
So depressing to see Blizzard keep tumbling down the greed hole and everything else they have done. Obliterating my inner childhood of enjoying when Blizzard actually stood for something great.
Imagine this used to be a company that made masterpieces like Diablo 2, Brood War, and World of Warcraft. At least EA was shit from the beginning. Blizzard free falling downhill is just depressing.
@@JamesL0717 Exactly, I remember when Diablo 1 came out and that blew me away, I grew up with Warcraft 1 and 2 and those where just ground breaking. I want to be as hyped for D4 like I was before D2 came out but I just can't, I look at Blizzard how peeps be looking at Amber Herd
playing video games are a w8 time regardless even if you are having FUN.
Wow, I watched this video before Asmongold TV posted it, amazing.
I love diablo immoral, it has brought us so much content
Might be my favorite blizzard release, just incredible
It's literally a meme 😂
Raxx stays a legend. Even if the broke his heart.
I played a mobile game for like 2 years once, the people i met around the world is what kept me playing. I miss them
Raxx is such a great guy tbh, always loved his Diablo content.
When Diablo Immortal came out, it was such a disappointment that I gave PoE a second chance, because it was too much information the first time. Best decision ever.
This makes me really happy. Once you get over that hump it’s free reign on fun
Diablo 3 wasnt good either for me atleast, remember the early auction house? Diablo 3 sold off diablo 2 being such a great game, people wanted the prefix suffix style way expanded and the whole diablo 2 gameplay untouched essentially and expanded on, im pretty sure diablo 2's item system is still more complex and better than diablo 3's. Most diablo 3 players i know, werent that good or didnt really play diablo 2 that much. Most people who quit d2 and were told about d3 by friends and installed it and checked it out. Alot of people also saw it wasnt what diablo 2 was, saw the whole early auction house bullshit and quit right away. People also claim d3 has more customization. Lol, yeah Ok. Does everyone not play each season just based off the release of that certain set? Can i equip a sword to wizard and swing that sword to kill act boss? I can do that with sorc, i can also equip a giant a$$ 2 hand sword with amazon and play passive ability only. I can even equip 3 piece of necro set items on pally and play fireball off him if i want to. Can i do any of that with d3? Nope i have to play with whatever dev has decided to give me for the skills that they think is the best for that char. And you want to tell me that d3 has more customization? Im pretty sure the only reason people say that is because you can transmog in d3, but d3 is not a more customizable game than d2 no wayy, you can jus trick out ur character so much more in d2. And jus tailor it to whatever. I used to make bowzons built to face and dual bowzons only. But i could solo clear Hell diablo/baal at the same time if wanted to.
I mean the itemization is definitely terrible in D3 compared to D2 but there are tons of different viable builds in D3 just like D2 and there are bad builds just like D2 that you can try out. There are sometimes different element options in D3 that are still meta. The amount of builds is not better. Legacy of Dreams? Probably doesn't mean anything to most D2 fans. Let's just say Titan Quest and Grim Dawn easily have way better build diversity than D2 and D3 combined but people have the rose-tinted nostalgia factor for D2 and have a hateful attitude towards D3 for whatever reasons.
@@Natas327548 Titan quest dude? really ? are u seriously tryna involve that mess? that came out in 2006, the other one, after 2015, people have been on d2jsp including myself since 2004.. D2 itself came out long before this aswell. people arent gunna throw away there whole economy and all the time they put into it just because theres a new game out. And dude i was around in .08.. before that.. I was long long gone when legacy of dreams came into diablo 2. Long gone. The game went to shit not to long after 2011. Rich assholes started coming out of the woodwork, buying up everyones rares, then next thing u know theres a dupe spree and dupes everywhere of once 1 of a kind rare items. Once i saw that i quit for good, sold my zon off, got 350 alone for my crafted ring off that snufflefugus dude. Alot of my characters items are still out there to this day.. stuff i traded for and took years finding.
26:27 waiting for the soda to fall over on the moneyyyy
The kicker is everyone of these videos I've watched all came with Diablo Immortal ads lol
I've been watching content on this game for around a week I've been playing as a F2P player for 3 days now and I'm kinda enjoying it, it could for sure be better and I'm not even going to get into the P2W elements.
Im sure i could enjoy it for a period but i really dont want to encourage this p2w BS. This money extraction model is already dominating the mobile game market and 90% of games are borderline unplayable unless you start paying past a certain point. I dont want this shit crossing over into the proper gaming scene. And neither should you
But if ppl like you support the game as a f2p player then the whales will keep coming and the model gets stronger and more appealing to all other game developer companies. Need to take a stand for the longer term bro.
That's not something to be proud of 🤷
Rax loves doing this, loves playing anything Diablo related, good or bad, he's going to play, P2W or not.
no need to feel bad/sad for him, he does this for living
Nah dude raxx has been one of the best streamer/TH-cam dudes for diablo for years, it sucks seeing how good he is vs the garbage they give him
/respect to Raxx. He did everything he possibly could to give Blizzard the benefit of the doubt. He went above and beyond.
I am thankful that I got to watch him discuss his journey. Thank you Raxx.
man i would love to see raxxanterax and Stewgaming just having a chat about diablo immortal
When you realize that as a F2P, you are the product, you're what keeps the whales entertained.
If only the fcking thing that u need too pay is skin only but not weneed too make it more worse than a gacha game like 100 times worse
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Are you telling me that this guy spent his life for a year, playing a mobile game without considering the fact that it was going to be just another free to play mobile game? The sheer volume of time that he spent without knowing what was going to happen just boggles my mind. It's a mobile game, with all the same pay to win features that we've seen for the last decade.
Some people can’t handle the truth and are blind
well said 👏
9:23 "Pay to Move" XD
I would be very surprised if Blizzard read his notes..
I don't understand how devs can do this, they are able to walk out on these jobs. Do you know how many companies right now are willing to pay you to go to CDL training, pay for the cdl training, pay for the test, and then hire you for $30+ an hour? Seriously, there is no excuse to go along with this shit as a game dev. There are tonnes of high paying jobs that *anyone* can do all over the country, ESPECIALLY right now, more than ever in the past. There is NO excuse for being complacent with this. Walk. Out.
Maybe people don't want to drive trucks?
@@Fedelisk480 > " There are tonnes of high paying jobs that anyone can do all over the country, ESPECIALLY right now, more than ever in the past. There is NO excuse for being complacent with this. Walk. Out " cdl driving was an example, and just a heads up that's not just "truckers" that cdl jobs covers.
I told myself if asmongold made another one of these videos I was done watching him for good (prob watched asmon for a good 200 hours) learn from this asmon when u don’t like something u move on from it u don’t stay in toxic relationship with it and keep whining and complaining about it your a millionaire Man U could just do things u enjoy we get it u don’t like blizzard any more the last 2 years all your content has stated that just move on dude it’s not for you any more good bye from a former fan
@@jaxen231 yah it’s kinda why I don’t like blizzards community in general any more the biggest man children group to exist of all the time they spend so much time on whining and complaining always puts me in a worst mood and when a content creator would rather put out content of pure negativity because it does better numbers sickens me and I can’t support it ppl like pikaboo, Xar, Payo, swifty are content creators I respect for not caving to this most there videos up lift my mood not make me mad
@@jaxen231 I don’t believe in blizzard at all fam I play the games a lil at night when I’m burnt out of grinding music which is what Is my passion I just don’t like content that sole intent is to cause fights or just be a negativity chamber I get doing a review but this is just not that posting a video everyday with a heavy bias is not a good review
I literally got a Diablo immortal ad before watching this video to watch this video
Beta, from a technical standpoint, is basically feature complete they just need to iron out the kinks. But companies just use this term when ever they feel like it.
i dont like how disrespectful and condescending asmon and chat are being to raxx. he's not an idiot, they literally just straight up lied to him for over a year throughout beta. the game sounds like it was completely different when he was playing it. it's always easy to say in hindsight that he should have seen it coming, but try to put yourself in his shoes.
18:15 I litteraly had my breath caught up in my throat from the hilarious build up💀
I got a Diablo immortal ad on this video lol
Genshin has no caps if you farm a couple game passes. Does Diable have that? im going to play Diablo again but not soon
I must say it’s been really interesting watching all the reviews and unpacking the endgame content. The real shame in all of this (imo) is that Diablo immortal mechanically plays really well on the phone, but the price tag for the content I would typically enjoy for many many hours (as I did in D3) is just absurd. Will Blizzard ever learn…. I feel I’ve been asking the question for years….
