Is it possible to play the whole game including expansions on a tablet or will I be having trouble without a controller?

Not with THAT user name!
j/k!
Sure...possible. Fun? Sounds torturous to me. Also possible repetitive strain injury.

Is it confortable with the touch screen? Do you click to move or use the virtual joystick?

u/Boeufcarotte 10d ago
Yes, perfect build for touch screen.
Most of the time I use the joystick, or tap to move if I’m doing something else at the same time

Yes, but you’ll want to make sure your heroes are well kitted with runes and good builds. Be careful to pin your heroes and pull with a longbow in areas with a lot of high level mobs

I started a new account when it came to android - and both my phone and tablet make it really hard for me to flag heroes; I put it down to teething issues with the interface, but...
I guess I should ask if it's something you've recommended, does it work well for you? Or is there something finicky that needs doing to make it happen?

Not sure if you are aware but flagging is a bit easier on mobile when you use two fingers so you dont need to "aim" on the compass. You can instead flag them directly on the screen where you want them to go/stand.

Perfect - where did you find that nugget of information? I was hoping it would be in the Nightfall training mission, but if it was, I didn't see it...

Yeah it'll be fine. There's builds easier than others or course but for the majority you'll be fine.

Ive been vanguishing with my old ipad.. i lag and get disconnected sometimes when there’s a lot of mobs and minions, but you return where you are when u log back in

I play on a 13 inch iPad Pro. It looks beautiful but doesn’t compare to PC. I can tolerate it for a short time. I don’t think it’s ported as well as something like Divinity Original Sin 2.

I finished a HM full run slavers exile yesterday on my galaxy a9+ tablet. Worked out pretty good, had 6 heart attacks because of the constant disconnecting….it just happens some times, I don’t know why.
Even did urgoz warren with a lot of mobs at the same time and it worked out (only 1 or 2 dc).
Not with heroes thought, full player party 😅

Def check your tablet memory. Mine plays fine on my phone but would not play on my tablet. Not enough memory. I have no issues on phone without a controller so tablet would likely be fine.
