Diablo Immortal is even worse than you thought
0Diablo Immortal has already been severely criticized for its very aggressive late-game pay-to-win mechanics but a new analysis has turned up revealing that it’s all actually a lot worse than anyone initially thought.
In other news, Skull & Bones might actually come out, Valve doubles Steam Deck production, Blizzard acquires Spellbreak developer, and we get a little Metroid history.
This week’s 5-Second Review gets pretty deep into the science of color theory and the Coming Soon section is actually a mixed bag.
Thanks for watching everyone and have a great weekend!
