Mike Ybarra, the head of Blizzard, has spoken out about the controversial microtransactions found in Diablo Immortal.
In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Ybarra implied that complaints surrounding Diablo Immortal’s in-game purchases were limited to a small minority, and indeed, that Blizzard had specifically designed its free-to-play experience so the majority of players would still enjoy the bulk of the game.
Ybarra pointed to the game’s high rating and number of positive reviews on the App Store, and suggested these contrasted with some of the negative headlines and complaints which have been reported.
