♥ UNPOPULAR OPINIONS - Sp4zie IRL

[@Waldonium]

I watched someone talk about this in a video and they made a good point about how Blizzard should've done it. Bethesda announced a mobile game about Elder scrolls at E3 BUT they also slapped Elder Scrolls VI Teaser after it so PC gamers weren't even phased by the mobile game announcement. If Blizzard just did like 10 second teaser for Diablo 4 then there would MUCH less hate.

[@sarucanine6044]

That's because Todd Howard was in the chess club

[@Yuchisami]

It wouldn't even had to be a 10 seconds tralier. They could had just put a big fat D4 logo behind them as they announced the mobile game and people wouldn't have fussed about it. This mess is totally the fault of the PR guys.

[@soumilidon]

I think it was Quin69 that made that suggestion you are referring to. And I agree they could have made a 10-15-20 sec teaser with no release date and the backlash would have been minimal. How many game titles we have seen so far that they where never completed etc. I am a big blizz fanboi tbh, and I enjoy their games, after all this years following a company I get to see that they are pulling the same mistakes, again and again. They never 1)listen their fanbase and 2)they don't understand their fanbase (what they like). Diablo immortal its just the nail in the coffin for this franchise. Diablo fans are hardcore mofos, and I get their frustration, having your favorite title K.O.'d like that. I will prolly download the game and check it out, if its free, otherwise I don't think I'll touch it.

[@greenfox1991]

The big problem that Blizzard dont want to do Diablo4. They would done like what you suggest, but Diablo4 will not be a thing for like 5-6 years. That's it. This is why, in my opinion they didnt do wrong. They have to announce a mobile game and it was they done. Maybe they thought that their community was mature, they werent.

[@soumilidon]

@@greenfox1991 I really don't think that Blizz wants to leave Diablo franchise on the gutter and not wanting to make a continuation for the franchise that they have accumulated so much profit from, and they have create a hardcore fan base from it (actual die hard fans). Basically I feel Blizz is completely out of touch with their fan base, and that can be seen from a plethora of examples (see WoW, HS, D and HoTS), when they continue to make mistakes that anger their customer base (loyal costumer base). Diablo fans have been wanting something new for the franchise for quite some years now (Reaper of Souls expansion was released ~5 years ago) and Blizz was hyping up this years Blizzcon for the Diablo part without revealing too much info but hyping it nonetheless. When you are billion dollar company you need to have the appropriate PR team, to not only be there when everything is smooth and basically organize events, but to make the correct planning and research for situations like these. Blizz scheduled Diablo panel to come out right of the bat - major news about releases for their games have always been made on the first panel at Blizzcon. I would like to say that I don't think the Diablo mobile game is a bad thing, and as I have mention on my previous comment I will probably play it when it comes out (if its free), BUT the way they released it was another example of how they are not in touch with their communities. I find the reaction of the community 100% excused and understanding, from my point of view, Blizz messed this up badly and basically they are the immature equation in this argument, instead of hyping things up - they should have kept it a bit back, instead of having the Diablo panel 1st, place it 2nd or 3rd, instead of trying to milk a franchise with in game purchases and diamond bullshitery - they should have placed resources and man power to create or start creating something for theirs most loyal fan base. They didn't, instead they tried to skim their way through with vague comments and putting blame to the community "for not understanding". Well from my point of view, they did a lot of things wrong, and the community is justifiably outraged.

Hi Sp4zie! Though I'm not a fan of any of Blizzard's game. I've very very shortly played heartstone and HotS. I don't really care much for what they bring out but when the news/memes were all over the internet I was intrigued. The biggest issue is the PR here. It's funny when you think about it because you realize, if they went about revealing this game in a whole different way it wouldn't have gotten any of this backlash. Besides maybe a few complaints about Diablo not getting any follow up that isn't a mobile game. Blizzard forgot who their audience was. PC gamers. They're all hardcore fans of their games on PC. It takes only about 10 mins on the internet to realize pc gamers generally have a disgust for mobile games, and don't consider them proper games. (Not everyone thinks this, I don't) So it's obvious it was going to backlash. Anyway, Blizzard is not the only company that makes mistakes in PR. They're a huge company, they'll recover. People will likely forget about it in a month or two, if they haven't already. (P.S. Your taste in games does indeed reflect why you liked league, too bad it's no longer a game you play, it's nice seeing you enjoy Worlds. I don't expect you to start playing it again but one can hope ^-^. Not a huge fan of you streaming other games but I still love the videos because the editing is superb especially combined with another CG personality :) I also love these IRL videos!) Much love, -Vin

[@Tyranzor64]

Absolutely right, Blizzard was established, built and loved on PC. The console shift made a ton of sense, but Blizzard had no presence on mobile, and also they didnt even develop it themselves. They sold it to a mobile dev who make a ton of pay to win content who release what looks like one of their old games reskinned and with Diablo slapped on it.

[@frostmourne1986]

> if they went about revealing this game in a whole different way it wouldn't have gotten any of this backlash. This. This is the core issue. I think DI is a perfect idea. Diablo plays very well on the go. But holy shit, announcing it at a fan event that clearly wants a PC game?

[@Tyranzor64]

@@frostmourne1986 oh yea, if we'd gotten a D4 teaser and then followed by something like " we want to make D4 as good as possible, so in the mean time we're super excited to announce Diablo Immortal!" I'm certain it would have gone down way differently.

[@Eden_Wings]

God I love how people here can discuss a matter peacefully and nicely, and expose different POVs without fearing to get insulted. This is my internet safe-space.

[@andrelh4725]

I agree with your entire comment, from start to finish.

[@schizoop]

Hey Spuz, I mainly agree with all the points you have said and I also agree that Diablo fans SHOULD look at the positive sides as well. I personally put way too many hours of my life into Diablo and switched to PoE recently. Yes, it's one of the worst PR moves in history, worse than PUBG calling out Epic Games and basically giving them free promo. On the other hand, a bigger fan base would be great for Blizzard & fans. BUT! Blizzard in their most recent Interview saying "We have shifted our best developers over to new mobile titles across Blizzard IP" is just another big slap into the face of their old & established fan base, waiting for new Blizzard games and that are pumped to play them on their favorite device (which is to 95% NOT a phone). To the Kripp stuff. I actually was watching DatModz streaming when he posted the "dirty paid shill" comment. His explanation to this is (I personally do not watch a lot of Kripp, so I will only try to quote what he says and not bring in any opinion) Kripp ALWAYS was the voice of the community when it was needed to criticise Blizzard. But that changed recently when he was starting to get his stay and flight at/to Blizzcon payed. Plus he apparently (again, just quoting) Starts up a Hearthstone stream for a bit and then switches to a mobile game, that he is sponsored by, after an hour or so. Just to pull a lot of viewers that actually wanted to see hearthstone. (indicating that most of the mobile games he only plays, because a lot of the Mobile game sponors pay A LOT, like ... A LOT). Modz and Kripp also go way back and have been knowing each other for many years (and I think were/are friends). Now my personal thoughts... Uh, not a big fan of the mobile game. Not only because it's on mobile and I probably won't ever try it, especially because I AM upset about the news (even tho I played my fair share of mobile games and still play some). BUT mainly because there STILL IS NO NEW CONTENT in this game. Diablo (3) fans have been waiting FOREVER for any actual new content in the game and the last big update is sooo long ago that the game for many, including myself got stale and felt the same over and over again. I switched to Path of Exile for that reason and this game actually cares about their core fan base and releases a BIG update at least every 3-6 months, keeping the game interesting to play. And with this mobile game I was hoping for at least some cool new mechanic, but nope, nothing (at least as far as I am aware). Adding on that the statement of Blizzard, that I quoted earlier, just feels like a huge slap in the face of their core fan base and makes me rethink if I even want to buy Warcraft III: Reforged, even tho I am pretty hyped about that. Anyways, just wanted to state my opinion on this and clarify why a lot of Kripp fans are upset. Been watching you since 2013, but I think I never commented. Love your content and streams, keep up the awesome work

[@Heylon1313]

I think this is one of the best vlogs I have ever seen: you get parts of the personality in Sp4zie's gym and breakfast routine, we get a well explained opinion on what kind of games he likes/dislikes with an unpopular opinion with Red Dead 2, and then we stick to that theme of unpopular opinions and talk about a broader issue and come to a conclusion.

This is just how it is, specially with kids. If you don't like/hate what they like/hate, they go crazy. I played around 200 hours of The Witcher 3, and I'm looking at another 200 (main quest + side quests + a lot of freakin' exploration) at some point in the future. I also can't wait for Red Dead Redemption to come to PC so I can invest God knows how many hours into that too. The fact that you may not like those games doesn't destroy my fun. The fact that I don't always like games like Battlerite or Battlerite Royale or any other game you like doesn't destroy your fun either. It's just how it is, we simply like different things. However, people will always act like idiots when they don't like something, online or in real life, so there's nothing you can do about that.

[@martecoronel]

Could you imagine being a fan of the game you like, going to a convention paying for the convention, the hotel, the travel, and then hearing to that announce and the announcers asking you "do you not have a phone?"? Boy, I'd be so pissed. I think the attendants were far more reasonable than I'd have been. P.S.: I agree, the big error was all the hype Blizzard created. Also, it's hurtful that Diablo Immortal is just a polished reskin of another game.

[@timtuinstra6164]

I feel like you missed Spazie's point of the vid, despite your valid argument.

[@GOTHICforLIFE1]

Nobody disagrees, including Spazie, about how Blizzard handled both the hype, timing and announcement of that game. Spazie's point however is that the community has no reason to the go and shit on every soul that actually like the game, just because the ones that don't like it are disappointed. Blizzard should take that hit in that case, not everyone that actually feel hyped over it :P

[@aeoliakepler807]

Ye, the fact that immortal seems to be a rescin kinda dismantles every defense argument. I mean the point is not about what blizz allowed and not allowed to do but how they do it. They could rly done some work and release better game with good pr instead of what they done. People only pissed because of how bluntly moneygrabbing this looks. Make business all you want but at least try to make as better product as you can. And as far as hating for other opinion goes, it's just the culture we live in nowadays.

[@MaxedEntropy]

Honestly i'm not even that against the mobile game, what i AM against tho, is that they removed a MASSIVE amount of comments on their trailer video giving negative (also non-toxic feedback) commentary on how they handled this entire thing. And the fact that the video got re-uploaded several times to reset the like/dislike ratios.

[@reoopc5060]

@@aeoliakepler807 This "reskin" argument is such a reach. Just because a game has the same general controls as another doesn' t mean it's a carbon copy. Is The Evil Within 2 a reskin of Resident Evil 7 because you also combine items in your inventory, turn objects over in your hands and use joysticks to walk and move the camera? Diablo Immortal looks the way it looks because that's an established and effective way for a mobile game to play in Asian markets (which is mainly where Blizzard is banking on Diablo Immortal doing well). Calling the game a reskin is a pretty thinly veiled attempt to "hide" you bias. Yes, Blizzard had piss poor PR for this game. But, that doesn't inherently make the game bad. Every company in existence is trying to make money, so lets not pretend that because you don't like the product, Blizzard is morally corrupt in their attempts to do what they have ALWAYS been trying to do. Also... hating something/someone just because it/they have a different opinion is dumb. We live in a dumb culture.

I don't normally write comments but I had to, This is one of the reasons I care so much and love your content so much Sp4zie, I've seen a few bits of trash talk on red dead.. and it made me feel pretty bad because I've really enjoyed the game. But when I heard you give your reasoning on it, you saw the art and beauty of the game - but as you said it wasn't for you, and that made me feel so great! I realise that with all these other people saying "It's too slow" or "It gets stale" it's just not their game and it's nice to have it from someone (like yourself) that can give me a reasoning behind why you don't like it and not just yell random hate words into a sentence. I also really agree on your point about Diablo Immortal, I think both sides messed up, but that's all I'll say on that. I would have preferred a Diablo 4 or Diablo 2 remaster but, we have to deal with the hand we're dealt and in this case.. I guess I'll try the mobile game.

I take my hat off for you Sp4zie. I totally agree with the "both sides are idiots" part. I've felt like, over the past 10 years, people have started to change the way they communicate through the online platforms (like forums, twitter, facebook, etc). If people don't agree with someone else's opinion, they are more likely to throw meme's at them, call them trolls/toxic or flat out insult/berate them. What happened with looking at an announcement, go "meh" when it doesn't appeal to you and "walk away"? Do we really have to "bring down the divine justice and smite the heathens" for having an opinion or announce something they have been invested their time into making it? Another example would the "console war". It was never a war to begin with... You had a few camps of people who love/prefer a specific console, but they feel the need to insult and berate the other camp. I mean, who cares? If you like your Playstation/Xbox/Nintendo console, then kudos to you. Have fun with it! Don't go about insulting someone for liking a different device then you do. It's all about having a good time, by playing games. It doesn't matter on which platform you do it (even on a mobile). The same goes for Diablo Immortal. If you are excited to play that game, then kudos to you. Be sure you have fun playing it! Myself? I'm not interested in the game, so i'll just let is pass by. Blizzard did make a big mistake with the Diablo announcement, but they didn't deserve the type and amount of insults/flak they got from the community. Even if they are not ready to announce Diablo 4 (if it's even in the making), they could've added 1 slide saying "More Diablo projects are in development. Stay tuned for more info in the future!" would've already made a difference. I would also have to say that the person who was doing the announcement felt a bit too forced. He didn't come across as actually excited about the game. (^_^; )

Unfortunately you're right, this won't change. As long as we can sit back and shake our heads at the jackassery without aggravating it, I suppose we'll be okay.

[@maxj9989]

From a diablo fan: not everyone is saying the new mobile game will suck (then again it's a mobile game it cant be that amazing compared to pc/console), but : 1st: Nobody wanted or asked for a mobile game. The majority of Diablo players (especially hardcore ones) are PC. 2nd: Diablo 3 hasn't had any real updates for like a year. We're being starved of content 3rd: there was 0 mention of any other games/gameplay updates (such as Diablo 2 remastered, a Diablo 3 expansion/player pack, or Diablo 4) 4th: when asked if Diablo Immortal will EVER be available on PC, the answer was no, and we were told "Don't you have phones? You all have phones." If this wasn't a disaster enough, Blizzard has taken to deleting comments on their youtube video of Diablo Immortal. One dude, "redpillshark" has had his comment deleted more than 14 times. We know that blizzard should fill the void they've left in the Mobile Game market because they will profit from it, but that doesn't mean they should create the game nobody asked for and then leave the PC AND Console gamers with 0 new content. It's fucking ridiculous. Furthermore, the people who are asking if Kripp is being paid are not 100% assholes. Considering that Blizzard tried to hide the fact people hated the game announcement by deleting thousands of comments from the video, it is entirely feasible that they COULD have paid him as he is a fairly big name in the industry regarding blizzard games (i'm not saying that people should ask him if he's being paid or that he IS, but considering blizzard's actions it's not out of the realm of possibility anymore.). The bottom line is, if Blizzard said something like "We have 2 things for you today, (lead with diablo immortal), (finish with teaser/announcement of new game/gameplay update for d3)" or "(lead with teaser/announcement new game/gameplay update) and then end (diablo immortal announcement)" none of the fans would've cared at all. Its the fact they've hyped the announcement up for so long, given us something we didnt want or ask for, and then being told "you all have phones" etc. its felt the same as the World of Warcraft 2016 Q&A panel, the dude asked "Have you ever thought about adding servers for previous expansions as they were then" and then the WoW representative replied "You don't want that. You think you do, but you don't".

[@WolfRites]

1: Diablo Immortal is clearly meant to reach a new audience, not the current one, so this is a moot point. 2: A game is a game. You paid for that game. You really aren't entitled to get anything else than what it already has. Whether that's good or bad, is really beside the point. If the game doesn't fulfill you anymore, stop playing it. 3: Blizzard literally wrote a blog post that there'd be no news regarding D3 or D4 a couple months ago, but did say they had stuff in the works. 4: Why would Diablo Immortal come to pc when it's clearly just a reskinned D3 with a few different mechanics to make it play on mobile os' ? They still obviously bungled the PR stuff, but yeah.

[@olliepopzor3405]

Watched PhillyD and he covered the subject, redpillshark has all his comments still up, just youtube has a shitty comment system and top comments just disappear from top comment sometimes. Personally if it doesn't effect the dev cycle for other Diablo content, Which they say they have multiple teams working on multiple things, idgaf what they do. I guess as a fan of Diablo 2 (12 years til D3 ) and elder scrolls games (7 years and counting in 2 days) I have to be more patient than others and kinda deal with it. It sucks that Diablo aint getting the love I think the title deserves but

[@JoakimFigge]

There's this saying my dad taught me once, don't know how to best translate it but it goes like. "I don't have to agree to your opinion, but I'll die fighting for your right to have one" Basically everyone has a right to have an opinion, as a diablo player I am not very happy about Immortal cause I dislike playing mobile games for many reasons, but it's a totally legit good call by blizzard to make the move into the market and the game does look kinda nice, I just wish it would have been handled better

It is funny that people scream at you if you do not have the "popular" opnion and in the same breath they mumble something about being for democratic values like free speech. Sadly this kind of thing occurs everywhere nowadays and "normal" people in response start to just say nothing anymore which leads to a whole lot of other problems. People need to relearn to accept and tolerate different opinions on matters and need to stop to try to scream the loudest to win an argument. (and also they need to stop to call things or people "dead" just because they have an opinion that does not fit in their view of the world, but thats more specific to the gaming industry...)

They feel betrayed because the common differentiator (gamers, for instance) is suddenly no longer a bonding factor due to a differing (or actually, just a nuanced) opinion. So a new ingroup-outgroup is created, and the new ingroup shits on the people who are left out. It's only to mark the new borders.

How do you endure the gym without breakfast? do you have something before practice?

[@shewhosings586]

The whole PR disaster is even worse now that it's 2021 and the game is still not available.

[@HawkinDove]

With that, what do you think about Battlerite going to a mobile game? There are already mobile games out there similar to battlerite, from characters, abilities, items, and mechanics. So, would you try to play it on your phone?

[@phylippezimmermannpaquin2062]

The bigger problem is what blizzard did after the announcement

Holy. Thank you. A decent and thinking man... that you always were. That's why I'm subbed for 4 years now :D

I think that also contributed to you leaving League, being a beast just became a lot harder and didn't feel good to pull off when you did... When you left you were in the one-shot meta, you can feel like a beast one-shotting people, but at the same time it doesn't feel like the other person had a chance like they do in all those Royale highlights you post. It felt like a "play" instead of an "outplay". Less like a beast, more like a scumlord abusing the meta. Glad you still play games you love playing. It REALLY shows. One of the hallmarks of someone loving the game their playing is when they're laughing even though they just died and THAT is a good thing, it always brings a smile to *my* face. Keep up the amazing work

[@nokik8782]

Exactly Sp4zie, i wouldnt say it better. I am glad you stood for Kripparian and you wouldnt let him in shit. I am shaking my head like wtf Blizzard you did, and wtf fans what shit you throwing on others... Keep up, like your channel :)

[@Mewdaai]

Nothing is better than having unpopular opinions... I freaking love it...

[@6DarthSion9]

Kripp is very likely to be sponsored by Blizzard due to the fact that they already made a deal with YT about deleting comments under Diablo Immortal trailer, deleting dislikes etc.

[@Muffin_GG]

The internet, where your opinion doesn't mean shit if it's not conform with the opinion of the mass.

[@tadeasreznicek3485]

And this video and your point of view is one of the reasons why I still love your videos and watch them frequently! :D Great! :)

[@JackDjTom6]

Hi Spuzie, i saw in your battlerite royale stream that you throw your items on the ground and collect them again, is there any reason for this ? ^^

[@SycoFoxII]

This! I don't have much of an opinion on the games involved but this is the position that I have/fall into on a lot of topics. Nice to see I'm not alone.

[@nicholaschambers141]

If they had released an updated Diablo and a year later announced a spinoff mobile version they wouldn’t have got so much backlash. The mobile game might be pretty good but in comparison to a pc main series it can’t compete. As sp4zie said the PR setting the mobile game up in the shadow of so many fans expectations was a massive mistake.

[@MrFlyingDutchkid]

Oof, I could never only have coffee when waking up before eating... Gives me the poops

[@Álex_LoMar]

I sympathise with you Sp4zie, don't worry. I've always felt that way too whenever stuff like this happens. You're not alone :)

[@Malenrick]

The biggest thing about unpopular opinions is to never state them like fact. For example claiming a game is bad just cause you didn't like it. Doing what you did and saying it's not for you is exactly how you tell people your opinion.

[@kasperstenbom]

"feel like a beast" very specific, hehe.

[@dogwithsunglasses4051]

May be unpopular but your absolutly right. Just because something is popular doesnt make it good.

[@winter_solsticee]

there was recently evidence of blizzard skewing the like to dislike ratio to their diablo immortal video on youtube and even went as far to delete negative comments too. Seeing all the things happening and their.. ignorance to fans just... makes me really upset.

[@KillTheCube10]

Have you tried games from the monster hunter series Sp4zie?

[@Ihka62]

This video is something Ive wanted people to talk about. Different games are for different kinds of people. If you find some game fun you shouldnt be "scared" to talk about the game if you know that the game is unpopular or "hated". I like Destiny and Destiny 2. Does the game have problems? Yes, but I still very much like what the game has to offer. You unlock abilities while you play and become stronger. (Yes the levelling part is very short but still you feel like getting stronger each time) later you unlock new and powerful weapons that require you to farm. The most powerful gear require more playtime and when you invest that time and get that new powerful weapon that youve wanted it gives me a sense of accomplishment and the feeling youre actually getting stronger as the character.

[@simonnilsson8375]

Im a huge fan of Diablo 3, I put diablo 3 as my best game of all time, And played it since 2010 way before resper of souls till now. And when i saw the announcement I was so hyped for it. Then all my diablo friends messaged me their hate towards it.. Its a mobile game..? New abilities, same graphic, new story, new characters and new items.. Exactly what diablo fans want, I looked into some gameplay and loved it. Then I went back to my friends told them I thought it was a great upgrade to diablo series... They answered with “No its shit, the graphics look horrible and have you seen the dislike the game is getting?”.. I was seriously confused at that point cause its the same graphics and what have dislikes with the game to do with? I bet if the diablo fans gave it a try, they would love it. Also I heard from reddit that KZbin was taking down the video and updating the dislike/like system a lot, cause there’s dislike botz spanming dislikes on it. The 200k dislikes are mostly just bots being the assholes they are. Also I agree with everything you said, Ima gamer like you D4ve, Thats why Diablo is the perfect game for me. You really feel like a beast in the late game, and when leveling up, every time you get a new weapon you get to feel like a beast for another 3 levels.

[@OMGhappiness]

Diablo is without a doubt my all time favorite series. My formative years were spent sitting in a channel with my friends every day after school doing and hosting runs of all shapes and sizes, we were hugely involved with the community from Diablo 2's launch and even though 3 wasn't at all what we'd hoped it would be, we've kept it up. For me its been because of my love of the story. The first two games came with these huge manuals full of stories and art and flavor text of this huge built up world, Something old Blizzard was FAMOUS for. I'm not at all upset that Blizzard wants to make a mobile game for Diablo, I'd love to play a good one. As soon as I heard about this reveal I went to the site to sign up for it. However, the story they've set up for it seems so thrown together last minute that its almost insulting. It breaks their own canon. BUT I'm going to play it and see for myself if I enjoy it because Diablo is my passion. I feel like a lot of this outrage is people blowing smoke and jumping on the hype train, attacking people without thinking about who it really affects. Yeah, Blizzard goof'd it up. If you want to show them how badly they goof'd it, don't buy the game. Don't give them any more money. But don't just be nasty just to be nasty. Thank you Spuz

[@aikenumholtz3539]

In a gaming market flooded with games that make you the most powerful individual in scope of the game, I've really enjoyed just relaxing with RDR2. It absolutely does everything you mentioned, it really forces the idea that you are not an infallible badass that can take on the world; there are definitely moments of sheer insanity that no actual human would be able to escape from, but for the most part it's a humbling experience. I totally get why people wouldn't enjoy that, though, as most people play videogames to distance themselves from reality at least temporarily
