Diablo 4 has just launched its very first season. A closely watched event that raised great expectations, perhaps too many? Barely launched, Season 1 will be debated and players will laugh when not downright angry.
Diablo 4 is breaking records, we’re talking about a game that has already sold more than 10 million copies in less than two months. Yes, it’s huge, putting it alongside Zelda Tears of The Kingdom or even Hogwarts Legacy, the other big hits of 2023. But even if it’s a hit, Blizzard’s Hack’n Slash disagrees. Well, not really him, but rather his first season, which starts today.
The first season of Diablo 4 makes players completely sick
The Season of Bad Luck, for some players the first season of diablo 4 bears his name very well. At least that’s what most players think who have gotten a jitter in their gums and didn’t make it. In the really big Season 1 patch, Blizzard actually implemented some balancing, in reality maybe even a little too much. To reduce the chances of players exhausting their game, Blizzard has removed the nerf for all classes. Virtually all currently viable builds are more or less affected. Damage, resistance bonuses, resource costs or skill cooldowns… adjustments that really don’t like it. In addition to the classes, there are also other measures, such as reducing XP gains, a general slowdown of “Infernal Waves” or even a significant weakening of the weak spot problem… In short, nothing is right.
Blizzard is ahead in the social networks. “Thanks for finishing the game”, “We asked about endgame content, not endgame”, “Blizzard didn’t understand anything”… The reactions are very numerous and multiply with great speed almost everywhere on forums and social networks.
Blizzard will respond… soon… soon Blizzard
All of a sudden Blizzard was talking about Adam Fletcher taking care of the community. He said yesterday that the studio has considered absolutely all of the feedback and that the developers have carefully planned a discussion around the patch. “We heard player feedback on some changes in Diablo 4 1.1.0. We’re going to have a campfire [stream consacré au jeu] this Friday to discuss more »we can read on Twitter.
But that wasn’t enough to calm the players’ anger. A hotfix has also been deployed diablo 4 At the end of the day I tried to fix a few things but nothing major. For the community there is only one possible solution, the postponement of Season 1 or the cancellation of the current patch. Such measures are hard to imagine on the day of the start of the first season. Unfortunately, players will have to settle for the time Blizzard rolls out a new hotfix, and given the turn of events, it shouldn’t be long.
