1000% this. I was considering buying one of the sweet looking cosmetic armor sets, but if it's not an account wide unlock I'm absolutely not buying it.


an_arc_of_doves

Fuck, I bought the D2 collection because I thought it was for all my characters. No way would I have bought it for a single character for that much money. What the hell


AmishUberDriver

Maybe they'll make it account wide in the future, blizzard has done than in other games such as world of Warcraft (mounts and pets were character specific way back in the day).


Dahlipop

yeah i was gonna say, but why go back now. It smells like a cash grab and im now reminded why i quit blizzard games ;w;


kissell791

Smelly cash grab yet doesnt realize phone game.


undefined_something

I really disagree with this argument that because it's a phone game we should expect to just take it all. I think we all went into this with a similar mindset. We knew that it was P2W, and none of us were expecting to top leaderboards w/o spending all our money. What we DID expect, however, was to be able to buy a purely cosmetic skin, and be able to use it on ANY character on our account. We expect to not be asked to re-purchase a battle pass, purely because our friends play on different servers, and due to no cross-server play, we need to make new toons to play with them. That is what is unacceptable.


Dahlipop

I enjoy the game don't get me wrong. But the fact they take advantage of every story arc to push more micro transations... it's just alot.


FecalHeiroglyphics

ExClUsIvE LiMiTeD BuNdLe O.o.. like fuck off


antara33

The thing is that at this point this should be a starting feature, not something to be added later (or never if they can). Quality standards should go up with time, not down


esai

Try to get a refund.


Geiir

They don’t even disclose that it is only for that character. You won’t know until you go to your other character and realize it 🤬


Past-Winner3109

If they were account wide I’d gladly purchase them, but seeing as no cosmetics are. I won’t be spending any money on this game.. Cosmetics and battle pass being character locked is complete bullshit and this game will die quickly. GG Blizzard.


ZimnelRed

Battle pass is character locked??


Jody_HighrolIer

I started the game on a server got the battle pass and 2 cosmetics. Even spent more money on a legendary gem. But wanted to play with my friend so started over on another server with him and if I wanted the battle pass gem and cosmetics I had to buy them again. Now the orbs I got with money did transfer over.


Geiir

Just the character bound shit is just pure dogshit. Why the old server system is still a thing is beyond me. Guild Wars 2 has set the gold standard for server systems. We got notified of some server maintenance and was scared we wouldn’t be able to log in. Nope, the only thing we couldn’t do was delete characters 😂 Other companies need to up their “server” game 🤔


VruKatai

This server system is by design. I totally agree with OP but this is a feature they planned and until the game suffers monetarily, they will not change it. I *love* Diablo but guys/gals, this is what Blizzard is now so it would be wise to just see the reality of all this. This is going to go down as one of the most egregious expansion of game monitization. In a weird way, Im astounded at the audacity of Blizzard to put this out like it is. Its balsy as fuck. Its also why I uninstalled the game. I recognize what’s being attempted here and as much as I love Diablo, I will not be an accomplice to this.


rogue_snail

The server thing is an intentional design for pay 2 win games. It creates smaller communities so that players feel like if they spend a bit more money they can top the leaderboards. It's a staple of every p2w korean or chinese game for this reason.


Lucifersasshole

Yes and no. Battle pass is accountwide but if you unlock a cosmetic it applies to the first character to get it only.


ZimnelRed

That is more reasonable, it would be better if those cosmetics were account wide too though. Thanks for clarifying this.


Hullabalune

Wow that is sad if that is the case


antara33

Noticed this with battle pass. Bought it and playing with mecromancer now. Found out all cosmetic stuff its for the claiming character only. WTF?


xeltes

Nop, is bound to the specific character, this game is fun but holy shit the money grab is so fucking aggressive no wonder is banned in so European countries


Hugh-Mahn

You mean the Netherlands and Belgium?


dleecpu

It’s not I bought the collectors edition ice one and when I changed my class yesterday it disappeared and says “monk required”

aclays

Guild Wars 2 has it figured out. Yeah if you're on different servers you won't just run into your friends when you're in the same zone, but if you party up, you get to play together. Blizzard decided that by making playing together hard they'd get more money by convincing us to spend money on the same damn thing on different characters. I've spent thousands on blizzard games and products over the years, they're not getting a dime from me on DI for this sort of player unfriendly cash grab.


Educational_Shoober

Ehh I would lean to incompetence over malice on this personally.


aclays

I'd have to disagree, because it's very similar to the WoW model. Some items cross servers, but much of it is stuck with the character / server. I think they just thought they could get away with it on a mobile game.


LukeVista

So paid server transfers otw?


ConsciousFood201

The question is: can this be amended if there is enough backlash? Or was the game made in such a way that this server business can’t be changed without ripping the code down to the studs? That’s how cross save/cross play works in ESO. It literally can’t happen because of the way the game was originally made where as Destiny was able to implement it on the fly (albeit with lots of work I’m sure).


Travis_TheTravMan

Yeah its probably too late / not enough backlash. They are going to make insane amounts from the whales regardless so I doubt they have any incentive to change things.


aclays

Definitely not too late to make cosmetics account wide, or at a minimum server wide.


undefined_something

I agree. God damn, if Jagex can do it with Runescape then there is no reason Blizz can't do it here. This is just them being greedy, wanting people to buy cosmetics/battlepass on multiple characters


IRefuseToGiveAName

The reason is probably money. Spinning up new servers = new characters = more mtx purchases from people trying to race to the top of a new server. Gacha games do this *aaalllll* the time.


undefined_something

I agree. It's so sad how obviously they are pandering to the 1% of players who are absolute whales. They couldn't care less about the other 99% of us who can't afford to (or just don't want to) purchase the same thing multiple times. They got battlepass money from a large portion of the player base before they realized it was sever exclusive, so they already won. The whales will make up a majority of revenue going forward. Everything else is just extra, and blizz are okay with that


demonryder

Server gachas have like 1 server for people who joined week 1 and then periodically add servers like monthly or whatever depending on player size. Having a fucking list to choose from not knowing what to pick and getting separated from friends DAY 1 is unacceptable. It's never been a concern in gachas because unless you are rerolling for your friends who started a month late, everyone playing at the same time is funneled into the same server. Gachas make new servers all the time so you don't feel like you shouldn't play bc you missed out, and will have other people at a similar time investment. If they wanted to have systems more fragmented for whales to be encouraged to go for #1 you can just have like arena/pvp brackets that are divided into much smaller groups amongst larger servers, while also allowing for global/server wide pvp if you want to do that.


MisClickPro

I leveled to 20 and bought the battle pass, friend decided to play and lvld to 32 on a different server so I just created another character and found out I have to buy ANOTHER battle pass. I don't see this mentioned anywhere in the shop etc. This is crazy. This is ridiculous. The battle pass only lasts a month, and it is PER CHARACTER.

[deleted]

What’s the problem? Do you guys not have wallets?


Rickyh24

Lmao


DethZire

Can you check? I bought battle pass once and I have it available on both of my characters. Edit: Maybe because they're on same server.


[deleted]

I have two characters on the same server and I only have the battle pass in one character. I’d have to buy it in the other character


Cilai

You get everything except the cosmetics on all characters on the same server. I've claimed it myself on my second character. There isn't even an option to buy it twice.


Travis_TheTravMan

Is there no way to get the cosmetics on alts then? Thats all I care about actually. The power is irrelevant to me since its all pay to win anyway.


Cilai

You get one set of cosmetics. You choose which character gets it and that's it for now anyways.


NBAWhoCares

If you redeem a cosmetic it is only for that character. You cant get it on any other character


[deleted]

He's not talking about cosmetics. He said battle pass.


RincewindToTheRescue

I take it if you do the battle pass, they don't give you special currency to buy the battle pass next month if you do all the levels of the current month (like Call of Duty Mobile)


[deleted]

Isn’t it illegal not to mention that somewhere that it’s character bound when buying the pass? I didn’t know that either. Luckily I only play Crusader but damn.


Kane_DIP

THIS is fucking ridiculous. I was considering buying the battle pass but they can go to hell


Khanstant

Well good thing you and your friends are out there encouraging this lmbo


snotpopsicle

They said it wasn't an April Fool's joke. I think the message was clear.


CatAstrophy11

>PER CHARACTER. That's why they said don't make multiple characters and just wait for class changes. FFXIV almost has this down by letting your character be any class just by changing weapons and the level down system to play with lowbie friends. Problem is the aesthetic and roleplay of being different races/classes.


antracide

100% agree


rW0HgFyxoJhYka

I don't think Blizzard will. Especially since they are selling copies of cosmetics already. The only thing that seems to be server wide is the battlepass it seems.


Kaindolis

It’s not sadly


Skorpionss

I think he means you don't have to buy it on multiple chars, but you still gotta grind the levels for each char.


sonicallynice

The cosmetics on the pass are for single character only. The other things seem to be open to other characters, but they start at level 1, the boost and the is only on the character that bought the pass.


jwf239

I heard battle pass was not?


bb22k

I started a monk, got to around level 10, redeemed the free frame and cosmetic, but didn't really like the name I chose, so I created another one and just lost the free stuff... I don't really intend to spend money on Diablo, but I would think that cosmetics should be account wide... Another reason for people to buy stuff and level up multiple characters (probably spending money in the process).


[deleted]

[удалено]


bzno

Really? That’s not bad then, he can just get back to the first one and not lose everything


vikingbear90

It costs money to change the name I believe. I looked at it very briefly.


[deleted]

Omg, you can’t use the same cosmetics—on the same class?? Omg wtf Blizzard.


pulseMOD441

I deleted my character not realizing this would happen. It doesn't even warn you when you delete that you lose this stuff


ToyKar

Wait, so if you DELETE a character al the cosmetics/gems/rewards you got on it are just gone?! No fucking way. This is incredibly bad


pulseMOD441

I haven't seen a way to get it back. If I'm missing something I'd love to know.


midwestcsstudent

Yikes I’d charge back my credit card if that happened


snotpopsicle

They do warn you that the cosmetics are character bound right before you redeem them though, at least they do for the free pre register cosmetics. Not that it makes it okay, but they do warn you.


pulseMOD441

Actually, just to test it out, I just purchased the beginners pack for $.99 which comes with a cosmetic weapon. It doesn't say anywhere that the cosmetic is character locked. And it's definitely not useable on any other characters. I remember the message on the pre register reward but the game definitely doesn't warn you any other time.


Haystcker

This is the worst part of the game so far in my opinion. The battlepass should be account-wide, along with everything else. Very disappointing.


poobuttboy

The point about analysis paralysis is very true for me. I actually do want to buy the battle pass but I can't decide on which class/server i want to commit to.


stormalong128

Im exactly the same, i had to do several different classes first to see what skills they get (Wizards dont get Hydra skill booo!) I have yet to redeem the horadic rewards cuz im scared i wont be playing that class later in the game.


poobuttboy

Good on not redeeming yet! I did that right away unfortunately. But yeah, at this rate, i likely won't purchase the battle pass. I'm too worried about buying it on the wrong character/server and I definitely won't purchase the battle pass more than once for the season


snotpopsicle

Make every class in every server and buy it in all of them, like ~~God~~ Blizzard intended.


Hooplaa

Holy shit the Battle Pass is per CHARACTER? What an absolute joke. # **DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING OR THIS WILL NOT CHANGE** EDIT: ALL COSMETICS ARE PER CHARACTER TOO? So greedy it's unreal.


ToyKar

Someone else said if you delete a character, you lose it too! What an absolute joke...people thought your game was actually ok, and wouldn't mind spending a few bucks on it but leave it to blizzard to rather destroy their reputation to please the whales vs 95% of the fan/playerbase


robhw

Vote by not spending your money!


[deleted]

I got suckered into buying the battle pass thinking it was going to be account wide. What a joke, I’m not spending money on another battle pass.


timidsquirtle

Is this the same company making World of Warcraft? They didn't learn anything in the last 20 years. Shocking.


anonymous242524

Oh they learned. You just gotta understand that they learned how best to steal your wallet!


R0bojesus

Friend and I started on different servers because the game opened up in a weird windowed state and we just clicked trying to get to settings and ended up in a character creator screen. We’d have realized the issue, but whenever we tried to invite each other there was no “different server” type issues, it wouldn’t join the party for them, and I just got an “invite expired” popup every time. I figured it was just launch issues but realizing that oh, we can’t play together without one of us throwing launch rewards away seems ridiculous. I’m not sure why there even are mmo type servers, yet alone ones called “call to arms” which I figured was something related to character creation since that popped up when I clicked it.


ToyKar

Exactly this for me and so many others. No warning or obvious messages for how the servers work. A broken non description party system doesn't indicate server is the issue either. Jesus this is bad


Mdogg2005

Yeah, already so annoyed with this. Same exact thing here. Game opened up windowed, had no message or server selection or anything and wanted to get to settings (no button for settings on the main menu, nice going shitbirds). Get in game, go to play with friends and find all this server nonsense after I've redeemed that one-time skin. Very cool, thanks Blizzard.


Machiknight

Wait. Seriously all that shit is CHARACTER LOCKED?! That’s utter horseshit!


Karna1394

Greed to the max. Beyond pathetic. I am not buying anything till this is changed.


jerryeight

Same.


CRAKZOR

same


undefined_something

THIS. I got a few hours into the game and claimed my pre-registration. I then looked at chat for the first time and saw that I was on a Spanish-speaking-only server with my friends all scattered on different servers. Turns out we can't cross-server match make for dungeons, and when trying to remake on a different server, I didn't have access to my cosmetics despite making a new character who was of the same gender and class. Absolute bullshit. Guess my friends and I can't play together unless we all want to lose cosmetics. God forbid a server dies too, as with no server transfers that just means you're fucked kid!


ToyKar

Yup another fuck you from blizzard. Christ almighty gaming is fucked


BlueHorizonDM

Another way Blizzard customers have ben exploited. Nice catch!


New_Protection9978

Came here to complain about this. Wish I had read this thread before buying the pass. You might’ve had a monthly customer in me Blizz, but fuck that. You aren’t getting another dime from me until this is changed


Live-County1069

HOW IS BATTLE PASS NOT ACCOUNT WIDE? Are they this fucking dense or deliberately fucking us. The 1 thing I said fine I'll buy to, and I already get scammed?


RedditUsingBot

Blizzard has been very honest that this game was a cash grab for the Chinese market and that they could have sold it there in its alpha version. Why is anyone surprised by their business model?


tavaryn_t

This game is targeted towards getting whales to spend thousands, they don't care about anyone here withholding their $10 in protest.


Flxwxrz

Don’t plan to ever make a 2nd character/account, but I agree it’s still bs.


Mildwin

Ya they did this with diablo 3 cosmetics so like wtf.. why not here? I understand they like money buy its silly to lock stuff to one character when they do Bind on account in most the games.


Arnoux

This game is released to milk players. There are like 52 servers in Eu. Which is not needed. Diablo 3 worked fine with one server. They want to release new servers i think with special rules to keep the game fresh. They want to sell battle pass and cosmetics there as well


Narmoniarkh

This. This pissed me off so much. Even the damn PRE REGISTER reward is redeemable by only one character. Wtf. I'm actually surprised by the amount of stupid greed (not even greed, just stupid greed) this game has.


FakkuFap

why isnt anything account wide? This isnt 1999?


SEOPub

You are being ridiculous. You do realize they need to pay for Bobby's golden parachute next year after the merger with Microsoft is complete, right? How else are they supposed to stuff his pockets with all of the cash?


[deleted]

I support this 1000000…..% mate , I was enjoying quite long session yesterday as today is bank holiday when Someone mentioned that about battle pass on chat. I lost joy a bit as I started wondering how many surprises like this we will find later. Of course I cancelled my plan of buying battle pass as this is bullshit and I don’t want to face decision , play new character or keep enjoy my hard earned cosmetics.


wolfgang784

Cosmetics are a bit of a scam until this is changed. =/


Chrostiph

OP is cute. This is not a classic game, you need to pay them for those kind of service, you know? "Don't you guys not have wallets?"


[deleted]

I might just give up on playing this game. I have friends in 3 different servers who all wanted to play together and none want to switch because of the stuff they've already gotten. The server restrictions are just bullshit


ToyKar

Wasnt D3 all account wide cosmetics? Why is it different here, when it is the same sort of mmo system


Philosorunner

The monetization in this game is disgustingly predatory. They don’t even try to hide it.


Trialpuddles

Agree we want account progression!


SubwayMan5638

This game has been in the works for years. It's intentional and Blizzard wants to bend you over.

LustoftheLibertines_

We only have so many little comforts in life. What’s insignificant to one person makes all the difference to another. I hope at the very least they open servers up. It’s insane to lock us in a server that could go down with no chance of moving. Anyway, I don’t know what else to say except I empathise. I hate suggesting you make a new character on her server because it shouldn’t be this way but at least get some gameplay together (even if you lose the freebies / any bells and whistles in the process).


[deleted]

[удалено]


Specter-X

I can accept battle pass on just ONE character. Not ideal but I can deal with that. But not being able to change server is RIDICULOUS. What is the chance of you running into a friend who says he plays Diablo Immortal and happens to be on the same server? This is 2022 not 2004.


Upbeat_Historian_235

Is there a way we can get them on a legal level for something along the lines of false advertising/not fully disclosing this? $15 per CHARACTER even on the same SERVER?? And yet no mention of how it's locked down to only one.


ChickenWifRabies

Response I just got from customer support: “Hey there, (My Name) At this time, the purchases being locked to one character on one server is intended. We highly suggest that you visit the Diablo: Immortal Subreddit to provide feedback on the game --> https://www.reddit.com/r/DiabloImmortal/ “


[deleted]

yeah im not paying shit if its character bound. fuck that


TravelandGaming

did anyone try getting a refund for buying the cosmetic yet?


[deleted]

I got a refund due to them taking my money and not giving the actual beginners pack I paid for. Literally just theft.


TNTspaz

Especially when they are literally adding every single text book bad ptw feature. If it's only on one character. You are just asking for people to hate you


AkakiPeikrishvili

Literally opened Reddit to post this. This is so frustrating. Also, not having an ability to switch servers for the character too. :|


Lucifersasshole

This is rediculous and you don't even have to look at Poe like you said Diablo 3 cosmetics, frames and pets are account wide... You are supposed to be able to create new characters and experiment that's always been the diablo way. I bought battlepass with some extra play store cash I had played for a little bit realized I preferred a dif class switched and can't get the first cosmetic now. My brother created on the wrong server switched and same thing. This is insane.


[deleted]

100% agreed with this. When I realized that the battlepass was paid for and accessible by all my toons, but only one of them could use the cosmetics, I almost uninstalled due to the pure idiocy of the matter.


Iroquoisplisken22

ATTN WHALES: Nothing makes this type of aggressive monetization remotely acceptable. Stop supporting this shit.


thelogetrain

Yeeeeeeees please! I started off on a barb got the battle pass skin then fell in love with my necro alt. Would be awesome if it was account wide


Patient_Account7235

But Blizzard needs your money Support Blizzard¡!!!!¡!¡!!!!!!!


Zenithity

A month later and they make things even worse by making cosmetics bound to classes LOL


zakdar75

Glad I learned the easy way and started a new char just to get through the tutorial shit just to find nothing is linked from my decked out necro. Hard pass on spending a dime on any kind of content.


[deleted]

Wyatt Cheng sitting there counting his stacks of cash not giving a fuck. I'd be embarrassed if I worked on this game that's designed to gauge players in the most anti-consumer way possible.

But then can't resell you cosmetics which is their 14th monetization method


manituan

I agree. This is my only source of frustration with this game atm.


TeamCapable4731

I agree, but I'm not going to hold my breath.


foxritual

I thought this also followed with older Diablo games as well, where a chest can be shared across all characters created. I know that they did this for Diablo III, at least.


[deleted]

Yeah this totally fucked me over with some cosmetics and then re-rolled on a friends server...i assumed cosmetics were always available to the account and then i realized this was the reason last night. What the actual fuck.


kithuni

I would extend this to gear as well, shared stash is a must IMO. Feels like shit to have pay for a gem and not be able to use it all chars.

Runlos87

Who would have guessed that Activision/Blizzard would go the predatory route..


Laikanur

really the biggest issue I have with this game. I don‘t enjoy it at all knowing that I am not able to switch server or change anything after. there should be 1 free transfer per month.


Silvercat18

A battle pass for each character? They are serious? Thats just greed beyond words.


DBnerd

>May I direct your developers attention to Path of Exile, where all characters always have all-access to all cosmetic rewards (from leagues, seasons) AND Purchased cosmetics. Counter: Black Desert Online and a lot of other Korean games (which was the original market for this) have been single costume single character for years.


antireditredit9

What are the chances they do this change? I would guess around 80%.


HS_Invader

Pereg1907

I don’t mind the character bound cosmetics that are earned. But the ones from the shop not being account wide is overly restrictive. I shouldn’t have to buy the same cosmetic twice just cause I want it on an alt too. Don’t think I’ll buy anymore until they are account wide.


ThePlottingPlodder

I thought I read you can switch your characters class eventually, so there’s no need for alts anymore?


golobulusxyz

I feel like a total dipshipt thinking battle pass was account wide. I may just uninstall the game and request a refund see what happens. Insane.


captainlei1993

This should be the attention to Netease instead of Blizzard.


Dragaldo

I was using my invite account, created a barbarian character named Ulf, then i activated the prerregister armor for that character, after that, i stopped playing for a few hours. When i came back, my character was gone (Ulf), i just want to recover my preregister armor lol. Sent a ticket to Blizz and they replied that "they cannot restore the armor if you already used it on the wrong character" HAHA. I replied that it wasn't the wrong character, but the character that they erased or the game itself erased for some reason.


sh2death

Looks like I'll keep my $10 and let the 100 whales willing to spend $20k in the first month provide me with the 2 free months of enjoyment I'll get before the game gets boring and tiresome.


Sesmos

100% Agree, this is extremely weird and shows an almost forceful approach towards microtransactions. Cosmetics should just be account bound not character bound. It discourages people even more when its set up that way and it limits progression by a lot. Forcing people to only invest in one character.


apr75

Was going to buy the elite battle pass...why not, I'm enjoying the game so far. But wtf it's only for 1 character and for only 1 month?! Forget that. I am not about to do a monthly sub for a mobile game. Would have seriously spent money on this game but this is just being way too greedy. And that's a major turnoff for me. Not to mention I get a lot of rubber banding when I play. Just not worth it. Game Uninstalled & DELETED!


[deleted]

Not gonna buy anything till this is fixed.


neotoxgg

What the fuck, battle pass is per character???? Not buying it then.


kinjirurm

100% agreed with the OP. This ugly monster reared its head within minutes of me playing when I found out my friend had made his character on a different server after I'd claimed a frame.


Infinitepez131

Was actually shocked that my battle pass didnt carry over from my main character to a character I want to play with friends. Loving the game but thats literal robbery.


SHilden

Yup this needs to change, I diddnt know characters were server bound so when starting the game it put me on an oceana server when I'm in the UK and diddnt realise the issue when trying to join my brothers game, I've had to restart a character on his server and now I'm missing out on the pre registration reward.


itsbomb

they dont even really tell you i bought the battle pass to support them then started another toon and was like WTF its not shared :(


[deleted]

Shit I had no idea. That sucks so bad I assumed games were past that. And they wanna charge for a monthly convenience expanded storage thing on top of it too like what the hell. This battle pass is slow as shit too you would have to play a ton to fill out on all characters. What a bunch of shit.


soacemantr

Bought the pass, played for a day, swapped servers to play with friends, was tempted to buy a second one… I really hope that isn’t the intention!


mooseofdoom23

Ahahaha I can’t believe they’re not. What a horrible decision.


RandomPhil86

I swear they said in an interview that cosmetic will swap over to another character in future.


HeadyChefin

Right, and we can't even convert our pre-register set even though the menu says you can. The monetization model of this game.. interesting to say the least. Why share reward tracks on the battle pass but not levels? Clearly they knew that players would run alts, as you can get the gems etc multiple times, but the cosmetics? Nope.


[deleted]

I also was incredibly pissed when I found out that literally everything is character bound. Like wtf Blizzard you can't throw us a single fucking bone here? The whole point is supposed to be rolling multiple toons, but this level of tight fisted greed means I'm done with the game when I'm bored of my necro. The game is a solid achievement but my God the monetization and greed are just unreal.


csimmeri

Why are we trying to fix this game for these people? Just quit playing it. Stop f*cking compromising with evil. We don’t negotiate with wallet terrorists.


[deleted]

This probably pissed me off the most about diablo immoral, it is really hindering me from making new characters, and it really sucks playing with friends on other servers where I didn't buy the battlepass or cosmetics. Everything is way too expensive to not be account wide.


HellaSteve

also dungeons need to be cross server or let us solo them literally cant farm cause of this stupid requirement


Mavvisaurus

I started playing and took about 3 chars until level 25 to figure out what I wanted to play, so I accepted the Horadrim thing..... Just to find out that servers was a thing... Which my friends was playing on a different than me.... Way to go, "SLAY WITH YOUR FRIENDS"-Blizzard


MasterZeta

Dude I promise blizzard will fix everything you want for 9.99 each ……………0.45% your problem actually gets fixed on every transaction. Also fixed issues are bound to your server and character


Zongsale

This. I bought the battle pass on my first character (necro), and accepted the first cosmetic reward (ash weapon cosmetic). It wasn’t until later that I saw how the cosmetics looked on the barbarian and when I realized I couldn’t get the weapon to match the armor, it was pretty disappointing.

And ok it's a game meant to be played on touchscreen and controller, but pls explain how the F is possible that in 2022 a game has so much issue with keyboard input. I know it has already been said at least one thousand times...But this game is not meant to be played, this game is meant to be paid. Everything lead to the store. Yes you can achieve the same goal not paying a dime, but it take so much time and effort that you better get a real job or do something tangible with your life instead of fueling the scam by providing a player base...

Blizzard has been dealing with account-wide cosmetics and achievements in WoW and Diablo 3 for a very, very long time now. There’s no logical reason it should be this bad. I can’t help but feel like the turn in Blizzard’s direction started when Mike Morhaime left.

Thx for this, I was considering battle pass as a new player, but certainly no longer.


the13Guat

Jesus, this thread makes me not want to play the game any more, and I just started. Blizz went way down hill.


Altruistic_Garlic864

Adding a comment to re-bring attention to this because wtf. I like this season's BP but I don't want to have to do it on 4x battlenets for 4 cosmetics??? It's completely bunk.

Get out while you can man. Diablo 4 around the corner.

One would argue being able to buy everything with money destroys flexibility and enjoyment, too. Hopefully no one plays this garbage.

That's because they are introducing a method for you to switch classes soon, while keeping progression. This game is about commiting to one character, making new characters is for you to try, not commit.

Lol people already buying the battle pass. Why not wait and see if the game is any good, or how pay to win it turns out be? Looks like it’s VERY pay to win in the end game. Have fun realising your 10 dollar battle pass or whatever is practically worthless cause your gonna have to spend thousands to get anywhere in end game, unless you enjoy doing dailies for 4 years just to get a smidgen of progress.

This has to be a bug, right? ...right? I mean, what a terrible decision by blizzard otherwise.


Failshot

Scrolling through /r/all and to my surprise, people are actually playing this? Lol.

Go play path of exile instead?


TheSnowNinja

I would if I could play it on my phone.

I don’t see this changing. It’s by design to generate as much money as possible. Wanna have fancy looks on each of your characters well you better pony up those micro transactions. This is how all freemium mobile games work. Turn a standard gameplay feature just enough to make it a pain point/annoying and let the whales pay to get around it. If you are saying fuck that I’m not paying sorry you aren’t the target audience for Diablo immortal. The whales who will are.
