Something that is about to arrive in the new Blizzard game is Seasons. Diablo IV will soon receive the first one and with it will implement the battle pass and new challenges with rewards. However, a lot of people were shocked by how it works, because it seems like did not like to everybody. And it is that as you read in the title… You will have to create a completely new character and start from scratch.
These are called “season characters” and will be used to access content and complete the pass. That’s to say, you will not be able to progress to the season pass with your current character, so if you’re going to take advantage of the seasons… I’m sorry to say that this is of no use to you. Get ready to create a new one and start over. This was confirmed by the same Rod Fergusson through Twitter.
Your Diablo IV Main Character Is Useless For Seasons
still a lot of people They will not have reached level 100 or discovered all that this episode can offer us, which is why they do not welcome this idea with much enthusiasm either. Having your character at level 70 and having to start from scratch just because of seasonal content… It’s quite frustrating for many players. However, for now, Blizzard won’t change its mind. At least they could let the battle pass with any character, not just the new ones.
We’re wasting timeadditional skill points or potions that we can use on our new character. However, these will be available once we finish the season and our new protagonist “emigrates” from the world, since Sanctuary and the seasons will be separate.
The part where we waste time is because everything we do now won’t work for the new seasons. And remember you’ll have to do this with every one that comes out, ie the characters you choose for season one won’t work for season two. You will have to start over. Rod Fergusson also recommends redoing the story mode in order to complete the challenges given to us, we’ll see how that is received, but so far it doesn’t seem like people are very supportive of it.
Always there is hope that in the future Blizzard will change its mind and enjoy the seasons with our main character, or with others if we want to create new classes. But not everyone likes the fact that they force you to do so, for now we can only wait to see the official reception of this new mechanic. But this could be a decision that encourages people not to play/buy the season passes.
