Diablo 4 players are angry, and it could've been mitigated pretty easily. Here's how.

Diablo 4

Diablo 4 starts its first ever Season mode on July 20, and the new 'chonky' Patch 1.1 dropped last night after much anticipation, being met with outrage from many of the Diablo community. In fact, Diablo 4 has been review bombed by users to 4.8 on Metacritic. 

It’s no secret to anyone who casually follows me on social media, or reads my content here at Windows Central, that I’m the resident Diablo fangirl. If you want negative hot takes on Diablo, there are plenty of other corners of the internet to go to for that, but certainly not here as I love this franchise almost as much as my firstborn child.

However, I can’t help but wince at their rationale here as I think much of this controversy could have been avoided or at least quelled, by sticking with the Player Test Realm that we’ve had the benefit of in previous games.
