Despite the great success of Diablo 4, some mechanics leave something to be desired. However, Blizzard is determined to improve everything so that everything works perfectly.
Diablo 4 has been a great success and is generally appreciated. However, like any video game, it is not free from flaws, especially when it comes to multiplayer and the delicate issue of balancing. Recognizing these shortcomings, Blizzard has just announced two new features in development. These novelties should delight many fans, because they are highly anticipated.
A mechanic on the way for Diablo 4
The first should appeal to inveterate collectors: it is a loot filter! And it’s not just a rumor; Diablo 4 General Manager Rod Fergusson personally confirmed the information via his Twitter account. However, don’t expect a specific release date just yet, we just know it’s in the works. This very useful option is available from competitors such as Path of Exile.
Any chance of having some kind of loot filter? I’m getting tired of picking up every gem trying to get my yellow items etc.
It is definitely part of our backlog.
Gone are the days of picking up items of an unwanted color. Now you can focus on the rarest items. And that’s not all ! Blizzard also announced an elemental resistance improvement in Diablo 4. This time it’s Community Manager Adam ‘PezRadar’ Fletcher talking about it, still on Twitter.
What is elemental resistance?
Along with physical damage, enemies also deal elemental damage. Depending on the player’s resistance to this damage, this can create complex situations. Elemental resistances can be acquired through talents and items. However, the current balance in the game is flawed, to the point that players complained on the forums, prompting Blizzard to intervene. PezRadar has announced that the long-awaited revamp will be rolling out with Diablo 4 Season 2. Current rumors suggest that this new season could kick off on October 26. Faced with various concerns, Diablo 4 players do not hesitate to express their dissatisfaction.
The developers, on the other hand, are working hard to respond to concerns and requests. With this in mind, they are also tracking cheats and exploits in Diablo 4, as we recently reported to you, with in particular a bug allowing duplication of objects. One of the most notable aspects of Blizzard’s management of Diablo 4 is its desire to establish an open and transparent dialogue with its player base. Faced with a constantly changing world of video games, where player expectations are becoming more and more precise and demanding, maintaining a direct communication channel is essential. This participatory approach strengthens the bond between the developers and the community and encourages a culture of mutual respect, even if on the player side, this is not quite the case yet…
What do you think of these two changes?
