ShiftYourCarcass actually believe that a person on the unlucky side could easily need $1 million in their quest to fully max out a character, a number that puts Quin69's ludicrous Diablo Immortal spending to shame. This is due to the discovery of up to 36 possible 5-star gem slots that can be unlocked through Awakening, which creates more slots after maxing out six 5-star gems.

In reality, ShiftYourCarcass believes the true number to be upwards of $540,000, and according to them, that is a fairly lucky number.

Reddit user ShiftYourCarcass created a lengthy post that described how players had been fooled into thinking the already devastating number of $100,000 was necessary to fully max out a character's six legendary gems. It takes over 540,000$ to max out your Diablo immortal character, not 100,000$ from gaming However, a player may have recently found that the game's gem system actually goes much deeper and could therefore increase the amount of money required to max out a character by hundreds of thousands of dollars. A Diablo Immortal gem slot machine can be used for players to calculate the total for themselves, corroborating the money required. Without an extreme case of good luck, it allegedly takes over $16,000 on average for a player to acquire a 5-star gem, and each character was thought to be able to hold six 5-star gems at one time. Perhaps the most extreme of these is the gem system in Diablo Immortal, specifically what it takes to acquire a 5-star gem in the game.

The systems within the game are so bad that Diablo Immortal has been compared to other microtransaction nightmares like FIFA Ultimate Team or Star Wars Battlefront 2. While it is true that plenty of games have released before it that use controversial microtransaction strategies in order to get players to invest money, Diablo Immortal takes these strategies to an exorbitant level. Diablo Immortal is nothing short of one of the most controversial video games released in the industry's history.
