They completly missed their target audience, I'd guess except for hearthstone 95% of ppl on blizzcon are PC gamers and Diablo fans especially so that was expected. And what was that stupid question at the end about not having phones? Yes ppl do have phones but most of them don't have and don't need gaming capable ones and why would they buy one? Mobile gaming is terrible except for card games and couple of casual trash clicking games. Sure you can use something like gamevice but that'll cost you even more money. And obviously PC gamers expect microtransactions on mobile. So that's why people are angry - they were waiting 5 years and got this.

The PC master race is still upgrading desktops for performance. They're never going to be content with the severe compromises that make a pocket-sized CPU/GPU work at all. From their point of view there are no gaming-capable phones.

  The kind of gameplay that Diablo is known is probably a bad fit for mobile gaming. D1/D2 has a sizable backstory that sucked people into the hack-and-slash gameplay. The pseudorandom map generation made it very playable. The fact that the game sucked you in and made it hard to stop mashes well with the story. D3 kinda forgot about the backstory and the tone. A mobile phone would simply run out of battery maybe an hour into that kind of game play.
