The recent Developer Update livestream proved to be a massive showcase for the future of the game, with new content for its upcoming Season of Blood and a huge amount of quality-of-life improvements coming to the game that will make leveling up faster, provide more endgame content, and address several issues raised by the community. Following on from the live stream, the developer’s efforts to course-correct the game’s recent troubles have started to win back some of the fanbase.
Over on the official Diablo 4 subreddit, the tone of players is cautious optimism following the live stream, with many feeling the upcoming changes are a good effort from the developers to improve the game, with one user stating the stream felt “like W after W after W. They seem to be looking at everything that makes current D4 suck and trying to improve them.”
Others shared this sentiment and felt the game is on the right track to win back the community, with others feeling the game is heading in a “positive direction” after a rather rough time since the beginning of Season of the Malignant.
Of course, some people were still frustrated that issues such as itemization and loot filters hadn’t been fully addressed and felt the game still had a ways to go to win back some players. Still, overall, it’s looking like this first livestream has done a lot for many players who seem more eager to return to the game.
