The Diablo 3 Season 34 Fiasko: Press F

[@hakl4398]

Thanks wudi for updating D3 guides and tierlist on Maxroll. Love to watch you blast D3 again in S34.

[@PaulLo-v3w]

If there IS an S34.

[@llVIU]

guys relax this is a new company, their first season, not 34th season

[@Krysdavar]

Right, it's also a small indie company, relax guys...

[@rivalun7696]

Every minor company can make small mistakes. They should push the D4 season actually a week back, because they fkt up season 33 by accidently closing it xD

[@marv5892]

@@rivalun7696 "Every minor company can make small mistakes". I know it's fun but I actually find it sad. Smaller studios are much better prepared than those.

[@motherpigeon1582]

@ No they are not, thats why so many of the go bancrupt or they call themselves small indie company and are 100% Tencent which is 100x bigger then memecrosoft but people are idiots and don't like fact checking ;

[@Baseraver]

rip to all those people who play d3 but not d4 and took time off of work to blast if i was as incompetent at my job id be ashamed of myself, imagine not being able to properly manage season end and start dates of 2 games

[@marcelburghart9739]

not to mention people are so stupid no they dont have the tristram even at start and the Rock which gave you gems... little boost thats now never will happen

[@zegalex]

For real, i got so pissed cuz i don't wanna play d4, i was like hell yeah i can play d3 finally with this awesome theme and shit, this happend

[@D2Mephisto]

I love D3. Holds a special spot in my heart. This is funny but a lil sad too lol. Thanks Blizz =/

[@minibleau]

2 days prior to launch is very unfair. it affects more people negatively, than it does positively affect others. people who play at season launch sometimes prepare their schedule around it, sometimes taking days off work, and at this short notice, is most likely too soon to rebook. also, lets just throw random numbers out (dont get offended its just example numbers) lets say d4 has 100k players on season launch, and d3 has 5k, i would hazard a guess that around 100 of the d3 players also play d4 on season launch. this is so odd.

[@JohnDoe-ld8nr]

With this pushback half of the Darkening of Tristram event is going to be happening outside of when a season is open.

[@DocHolliday187]

I am in the military, and I have to put my leave in 2 weeks in advance. I put in for next week off specifically to blast D3. I enjoyed Season 27 and was looking forward to blasting it. Now, I am at F Blizzard. These clowns can’t do anything right and clearly don’t respect their own announced timeline or the people that adjusted their personal lives to account for it.

[@Lord_of_eels]

Cry

[@billthecanuck]

blizzard seems so disorganized these days.

[@motherpigeon1582]

Since memecrosoft aquired them it is kappa.

[@You0nlyLiveonce]

All this tells me is that they've got an intern doing double duty on d3 and d4, and they won't allocate any more resources to even release a recycled season with nothing new.

[@kevinwebster7868]

No not really. It’s just the bias is so strong that when a glitch happens everyone loses their minds.

[@dustinwagner5902]

GGG did the same thing…

[@motherpigeon1582]

@ Well we cannot stick to facts xD

[@Drelu_]

they are scared more ppl will play d3 season launch than d4 at that weekend

[@Kleinbud86]

I think it sucks... Cause I had planned for this weekend... But now I won't be able to play most likely 😩

[@user-KEKW]

same for me

[@Dyonas]

You don't understand. How is blizzard supposed to know when diablo 4 launches their new season?

[@trulsbendiksen9990]

Same here, stress all week for beeing rdy for tomorrow..

[@dator.]

Same here 😒

[@arthurelfert]

Damn yeah, my mate took off work for next week to go full blast with us, we also made like room (timewise) for next week and now its all for nothing... If telling a lill bit earlier ok id get it but 2 days before??? Seems the same dumba** who cancelled last season when it wasnt supposed to, forgot to drop the information earlier... ONE JOB, couldnt be that hard...

[@michaelm1209]

as someone who doesnt like d4 at all, tand having this weekend of for d3, extremely pissed off at blizz again

[@RassGurmy92]

Theyre trying to kill D3 because its a better game than D4. So they are just coping and seething. 😊

[@caseybrown6813]

Smartest D3 Player.

[@kevinwebster7868]

No not really.

[@Truthseeker-iz3dj]

D3 has more endgame purpose then d4. I mean seriously nothing close to greater rifts with leaderboards on 2nd season of expansion

[@necaacen]

you think you want D3, but you really dont.... ...no honestly you dont... ...please? please like D4, its really good! no? ...😭

[@necaacen]

2025: D3 still more fun than D4 tbh.

[@grizzledsentinel4691]

Thanks for the update! Missed the last 2 seasons just due to IRL being too busy. Hopefully I can do it this friday.

[@ThanatosTheDH]

This is crazy but I think I would like a D3 expansion the equivalent of Reaper of Souls over D4. Surely I can't be the only one. 😅

[@sylars7775]

i thought i was crazy when i saw it said starting 29th and not 24th as i saw it thought i was lost

[@danielkallis2295]

it sucks for the people that took a day or 2 off work and cant reschedule it for d3 >_

[@mardotilk5254]

so i took a free weekend for nothing great work Blizzard seems like they started the company yesterday

[@iTalickChicken]

happends when you put faith in blizzard

[@Kill-zl8sj]

On 5th s33 ended unintentionally, everything was sent to non-season. On 6th s33 was restarted and char moved back to season from non-season with -paragon. If you didnt reset paragon , u had paragon.from non-season on season at 0 paragon shown with -10k but the dmg was with paragon included. If you didnt use account roll back, restarted season was with no stash, mats gold, no altar , etc. If you continued to play without rollback when s33 ended intentionally on 19th, nothing was sent to non-season, only the character was sent. All stash, mats, paragon wasnt transfered to non seasonal and vanished. Now when s33 restarted on the 6th , players used legacy items on character in non-season and some in inventory and was moved back into season with items from non-season. Players lost legacy items when s33 ended again on the 19th if you had them in stash. Ive lost 2 weeks of play - 2k paragon , 1850 bounty , 15k craft materials , 30 screams , 8 primals , etc that wasnt transfered to non-season. You.can read the US forums. Bug reports and NO OFFICIAL REPLY . There are alot of players affected. Sad. Blizzard is ignoring us like a king.

[@Kuddochan]

How do you mess this up so bad

[@You0nlyLiveonce]

Profit margins. General consensus is d3 is a superior game. I, amongst many, planned on playing d3 for at least a few weeks b4 d4. Now they took that choice away, and now a greater majority of people will spend money on cosmetics and passes than play game with no microtransactions.

[@panna506]

Opening wudi video to see what he has to say about season this season mess and see me there was kinda funny and unexpected XD

[@rockkiller124]

Typical Blizzard, never fail to disappoint as always. Back to POE2 for me until S34 launches. D4 bad.

[@paulkaufmann3399]

already done with D4. 150 done and all achievements completed for the season. More excited for this upcoming D3 season..........

[@GeordsYouTube]

I think, d4 season started and the player numbers sucked so they said well how can we get more to play? oh delay the d3 season and the people who organise their life around d3 season start will just play d4

[@sylars7775]

who would paly d4 anyways after the start on friday at 6 pm ^^

[@Mrfailstandstil]

Yep, I bet that's exactly what happened, greed and soulless cashgrab are behind it, as always.

[@trulsbendiksen9990]

This is sadly true. But i mean, bad idea though, its not like i wanna touch d4, or any other blizz game after this. I deleted all blizz stuff, playing poe 2 now❤ i actually made plans, organizing stuff to be able for tomorrow, and i know many others also did. Then blizz spits us in the face by changin 1 day before. And as usual, no real info, no sry, no nothing.

[@robertaston7256]

Well hopefully they extend the January anniversary event an extra week. I was planning on using that for leveling new chars in S34. But I doubt they will. A little less excited now for S34. The strafe impale DH is my favorite build of all time so I am still pumped to give it another go.

[@NomarBigTree]

It’s going to be CNY holidays in my place. I’ve been looking forward to play S34 for weeks as I can finally have some more time to grind and also this season topic is new to me. Now it is changed to 1/31… really disappointing. Looks to me Blizzard is pretending they care about the thoughts of players but in actual they don’t give a f.

[@Pastel45701]

Traurig das d4 nach 1 1/2 Wochen so uninteressant ist das man Diablo 3 spielen will. Danke Blizzard für den Mist. Habe mich gefreut auf morgen und dann verkacken die schon wieder.

[@Gorgen2k]

They should go back on this. Becuase its so late to tell this, and make sure that future seasons we will make sure that they dont start in the same week. So d4 players are gonna say what d3 players are allowed to do? If you are playing d4 only then you wil play d4. And those who still enjoy d3 let them play d3. Not let d4 ppl say nah i wanna also play d3 , but i am have to much fun with d4. Delay it delay it.... BS!

[@oxez8712]

I play both, and I was quite annoyed that I'd have to pick between one or the other this week.

[@nicholaskcin1974]

@@oxez8712but it doesn’t really affect you… you can just play D4 until you get tired of it and come back to D3 cuz its the better game

[@Togo_The_Dogo]

Hate this company, and their disrespect for players

[@maxaffe3195]

i miss diablo 3 vanilla

[@asaguda]

ActiBlizz killed the second D3 expansion before the first one launched because they thought D3 pre-reaper of souls had done so poorly there's no way the expansion would work. And then when it turns out people love D3, they decide to stick to their guns. Fast forward today, and now they're afraid that people will get bored of over-monetized, under-developed Diablo 4, so much that they'd switch to Diablo 3 had they the option, and so they're going to take it away, because D3 isn't monetized heavily, and maybe their D4 players will do something stupid and spend some cash before they switch to D3. That's what I read this as.

[@KaX321]

Oops we fired everyone who dealt with the seasons.

[@Truthseeker-iz3dj]

And creating awesome leaderboards

I am upset about the delay I can’t deny that…. Was really looking forward to forward to start the new Season since they fcked up the last one! But blizzard atleast keeps seasons coming even tho D4 is out so I gotta give em that! I’d pay good money for d3 dlcs! New classes and stuff would be awesome because D4 just doesn’t catch me at all

[@AndersPedersen-e5d]

My brother and I aim to do a 2 man push after 24 hours of gameplay. Zbarb I think will be the best support but what will be the best DPS? Low paragon paired with a zbarb?

[@wwommy]

d3 is my fav arpg :p i like it more than d4 and poe2. but ive never tried poe1

[@FlipsMG]

Should definitely try POE1 even if it's more confusing and difficult to learn than POE2. It's much more BLASTY and D3-like

[@mikolajr4700]

@@FlipsMG well, but it is also "weird". Having hard time to explain this, but the way the character reacts to skills is off. I do love POE2, but i could not finish campaign in POE1.

d3 still better than d4 imo.

I agree, started to play d4 s7 but it is a mess on the screen. There a lot more chores. At most, the same amount of fun when you setup your gear. So d3 wins no contest imho.

They could have kept it this weekend. I'm excited to play season 34, but it will likely happen just like season 33. Once I'm done with D4, I'll log in to D3 and blast through the season journey. I'm not worried about leaderboards so it's just for fun. I think most people who play D4 and D3 right now would have felt the same. Edit-fixed season numbers

[@thornburg9170]

Was looking forward to playing seasonal with the Darkening of Tristram active, but they ruined it.

They should stop making seasons for Diablo 3. Instead they should put the altar and ethereal weapons to non-seasonal and thats it. The current state totally sucked the fun out of playing my non-seasonal character. I feel like they want to deliberately destroy Diablo 3, but I don't like Diablo 4. The Characters look like faces of meth, and over all it is too dark for my taste.
