Diablo 4 Dev Comments on Aberrant Cinder Drop Rate Change

  • Diablo 4 Dev Comments on Aberrant Cinder Drop Rate Change

    In a post on the Diablo 4 subreddit, user Meryhathor posted a forums link that said players cannot enter Tier 3 without being level 50, and Diablo 4 Gold Tier 4 required them to be level 70. However, user the-true-steel commented that this information wasn't fully accurate. With the help of a streamer's VOD, they explained how completing the Capstone dungeon for Tier 3 at level 37 restricted the streamer from accessing it, but it worked when they tried to do the same at level 40. Another user commented saying that the Tier 4 Capstone dungeon shows up as a priority quest when the player scales up to level 60.

    Most of the players in the comments seemed to agree that level 40 and 60 are the level requirements for progressing World Tiers, but many were still enraged by Blizzard's decision to do so. While this solved one problem for Blizzard where players could farm Tier 4 XP and loot at lower levels by getting higher level players to carry them, the latest patch reduced the XP gains from enemies at lower World Tiers in Diablo 4. For instance, the monster levels will always trail the player's level by 5 until the Tier 3 monster level 70 is reached. This means that players will now have to grind even more to reach higher Tiers, which wasn't the case before Season 4.

    Apart from this change, Blizzard also made several other changes that didn't sit well with fans. For instance, while making big changes to certain gameplay mechanics, players' existing gear and weapons in Diablo 4 were also secretly nerfed. Additionally, Sorcerer mains were unhappy with the latest Unique weapon for the class, which seems to not be very useful according to many. Thankfully, Blizzard has mentioned that it is evaluating player feedback and will address the concerns in a Campfire Chat on July 21.

    Diablo 4 is being review bombed again, this time by fans of the game who are upset about the changes made in the recent update. Diablo 4 earned acclaim from critics when it first launched, but hardcore fans have had a dicier relationship with the action-RPG. This led to the game being review bombed on review aggregate site Metacritic shortly after launch, with disgruntled fans dragging its user score down considerably.

    The first Diablo 4 review bombing effort saw the game's user score drop all the way to an abysmal 4.8 rating, a far cry from the 87 overall score that it secured from critics at the time. This initial review bombing was the result of fans upset about Diablo 4's server issues in its early days, its microtransactions, and live service nature. Fans seemed to warm up to the game after that rocky start, but now it seems that public opinion has taken another turn for the worse.
