My 1st Gameplay on Diablo Immortal

Finally had the day off yesterday to spend some time playing Diablo Immortal on my iPhone 13 Pro Max at home. Probably had to go slow since my work will be busy everyday 😢 My initial impression on the game mechanic is good seriously. So far no bug experienced and the gameplay were easy to pick up. The walkthrough of the game is typically playable even for those who doesn't play Diablo before. Managed to clock 3 hours yesterday from the beginning. Although I will stay F2P, I think I will grind slowly and enjoy the process and storyline of the game.

Diablo Immortal is still popular regardless of complains...

Enough said. Diablo Immortal is still popular regardless of how haters whack Blizzard. Blizzard and game companies were out to do a business while delivering gaming contents to the world. It is not an easy job and these games requires tons of money to develop and maintain them. Of course, we can't deny that those PayToWin (P2W) players will be able to play better in the "End Game". Even with money, sometimes it really depends on luck. Not necessary to get the best gears or equipment to ace the game. Overall, i think the game is well made and I truly enjoy the game as usual as a FreeToPlay (F2P) player. You still do enjoy the process and I felt that fellow gamers just relax lah. If other players want to pay money to advance better in the game, so be it. Peace Out 😉

Modern Mobile Game - Diablo Immortal really takes up space

Seems that Smartphone storage have to be at least 256GB as the new baseline storage. Having only 128GB storage space is quite a hassle to keep backing up your videos and photos on a separate storage. As you can see actually most of the permanent storage were on the Mobile Games installed in the device. Of course, Diablo Immortal which had finally launched in 2022 shows us that modern game storage are growing a lot and requires more processing power to run smoothly.

Before using iPhone 13 Pro Max, I was using iPhone 12 with 128GB of storage and that overall lifespan for me is to utilize its strong processor chipset purely for gaming. At the same time, was using it for a little testing on Content Creation. Using iCloud and paying for monthly subscription is definitely against my style. However I got to admit that it is a very good tool for backing up and transferring the files between iOS and PC.

Moving forward to 2022, I upgraded my iPhone 12 128GB to iPhone 13 Pro Max 256GB. With this, it solve both the storage problem and it allows me to shoot better videos and pictures for my content creation purpose. 

To be better manage the storage between iOS and PC for my editing work and data transfer, I got the SanDisk 128GB iXpand Flash Drive Luxe to work seamlessly with my transferring of files. This is to avoid using the "complicated" iTunes software to transfer or even screwed up by syncing unnecessary data between iTunes and iPhone.

In summary, do consider getting at least 256GB storage space for all your device, especially you are one who does not like to deal with data clutter. In fact, nobody like to clutter their data because whenever we need that data, it is unable to grab that necessary information. 😀

Diablo Immortal postponed from 02 June to 23 June for Singapore :/

The last post i posted back in February 2022, i mentioned that Diablo Immortal would be releasing on 02 June 2022. After waiting for a few days after the expected 02 June 2022 launch and rechecking both Google Play Store and Apple iOS store, nothing appearing. This is so irritating that I think i am not going to VPN to other countries just to play this game. No choice but to wait till 23 June 2022 release for the Southeast Asian market. Because of Southeast Asian territories will be getting dedicated regional game servers, I will close one eye and wait for another 19 days from now... 😕

Diablo Immortal Delayed AGAIN for Asia Pacific Region :/

Haha ok lar, although the ang moh gets to play first. Most of them left negative reviews on Day 1 and showing all the cons more than the pros. It also note that most players felt that it is very "Pay to Win" game. In a business point of view, bo bian lar. As a gamer, lan lan suck thumb because I am a F2P player. 😏 At first, I was camping for 2nd June 2022 launch, then found out for asia pacific, its 23 June 2022. But then it further delayed to 07 July 2022. Oh well, i already waited for 2 years since it announced so earlier back that I was ready anytime for getting iPhone 12 [Apple A14 Bionic] in 2020 and now iPhone 13 Pro Max [Apple A15 Bionic] which is perfect for high end mobile gaming. Let's hope no more delay for 07 July 2022. See you fellow Diablo Immortal gamers ! 😉

Seriously speaking, I think I had already registered interest for Diablo Immortal in my old mobile phone to the new mobile phone and the game is still not released yet. In fact, it had been years 😆 Waited till neck also long and pain. So finally Blizzard had confirmed not the confirmed date but Mid 2022. In addition, they also wanted to release a mobile World of Warcraft game as well this year. If it is true and they actually committed to what they said, this is definitely great news for the gamers. For me, I am definitely looking forward to it and nowadays, majority or in fact everyone had a "Powerful" mobile device.
