Summary
Blizzard has taken down aDiablo 4video which showed glimpses of the changes arriving with Season of Blood because it was full of inaccurate information. This was spotted by YouTuber Raxxanterax, who compared the information posted in the video with the actualDiablo 4Season of Blood patch notesand discovered the mistakes.
Diablo 4Season of Blood is pegged to be one of the biggest updates the game has received thus far. The developers have been hyping up the update for a while, and even hosted two livestreams to cover the content arriving with Season 2. Taking everything Blizzard has announced into consideration, the anticipation surrounding the upcoming season is quite high, which is a good sign for the developer consideringDiablo 4’s popularity has plummeted over the past couple of months. However, the error-ridden video Blizzard took down is something it might want to avoid in order to maintain the anticipation.
A video posted on Raxxanterax’s YouTube channel showcased how literally every change mentioned in Blizzard’s video was erroneous. For instance, the video showed how Dungeon layouts are seemingly being changed for the better by comparing the old and the new layouts; however, the video mislabeled the images of the layouts, which players found quite amusing. Furthermore, Blizzard showcased how the base speed of Mounts inDiablo 4is being tweaked, but the comparison shown in the trailer made it virtually impossible to tell the difference between the two clips that were shown. Lastly, it also showed how the Experience leveling in the game will be more rewarding for the players, but Raxxanterax showed that the math shown on the screen was completely inaccurate as the numbers did not add up to the values shown in Blizzard’s video.
The video by Raxxanterax quickly gained traction over the weekend which prompted Blizzard to take its own video down. However, this hasn’t deterred players’ expectations for Season of Blood as the community members found the mistakes to be amusing. Thankfully, the actualchanges arriving withDiablo 4Season of Bloodwill be true to the information announced in the livestreams and the patch notes.
Season of Blood will introduce a new storyline, where Sanctuary is being plagued by vampires led by an unknown Dark Master. To put an end to the enemy’s schemes, players are also getting a vampire hunter companion named Erys. In addition to this,Diablo 4Season of Bloodwill allow players to fight fire with fire by wielding some vampiric powers of their own.
Diablo 4is available for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
