 So it seems a lot of the new Diablo fanbase are unhappy with the way the new season will work with Diablo 4, it means players will have to create a brand new character class in order to progress the seasonal battle pass that is coming soon for Diablo 4, today I will explain all. How's it going guys? My name's DPJ and if you do enjoy the video leaving a like really helps out and if you like what you see and want to see more be sure to subscribe. So this is something I knew about ages ago and it's something I actually look forward to, I like the idea of starting at square one with everybody else and basically storming through that season pass with everybody else on an equal playing field, I also understand that if you do this and earn XP towards your season pass on a level 100 character it means you can progress said battle pass much much quicker than everybody else, it kind of takes away the ground, the point of it in my opinion but hey that's just my opinion, some will definitely disagree with this, I know new comments to Diablo, I'm actually a new comment to Diablo by the way Diablo 4 is my first Diablo game but I knew about this setup ages ago and a lot of ARPG veterans will know this too, I think it's a great system but hey that's my opinion, let me know yours down below like I said. So Diablo 4 seasonal content isn't far off and it's a system I believe that's coming every three months and with said new seasons if you want to progress said seasonal battle pass you have to create a new character to progress it, this is what I picked Necromancer first but yeah either way if you want to progress said season pass if you plan on taking part in it to get all that juicy loot you have to create a new character and start fresh at a level one, now this all came out from Paul Tassie over on Twitter who was unsure about this system and how it worked he actually tweeted this I did not do previous gen Diablo seasons so I don't really fully get it, if I don't want to level season specific characters from scratch can I still use my permanent ones to progress their battle pass, here ignore the question mark yeah I ain't doing that then long term goal is to get everyone to 100 and wait for expansion I guess, he then tweeted this with a little bit confusion hoping for an answer from Rod Ferguson who is the general manager and Diablo 4 he replied with hey Paul yes to take part in a seasonal quest line mechanics season journey and battle pass you need to create a new seasonal character playing campaign with seasonal character if you so desire or need to finish will also progress a season journey and battle pass so yes there we have it guys but this isn't a system new to many old Diablo players again like I said I started with Diablo 4 but I knew this would be the case I really did so yes it does mean guys if you are new to Diablo 4 if you don't know about this already if you want to take part in that seasonal journey you need to create a brand new character to progress said journey it is as simple as that now this like I said many people seem good are unhappy with a lot of people didn't know the system existed and that it would be a part of Diablo 4 and you can see by the replies to Paul Tassie you can see by the replies to Rod Ferguson I mean Diablo 4 has many many many new players to the franchise I myself I'm included by actually like that idea this some people absolutely dreaded which I can kind of understand not everybody has the spare time to basically level one full character never mind create one brand new one every three months it's not going to be possible for some players which is totally understandable but hey this is how Diablo is and how it's gonna stay I do believe I mean you can't think of it this way you create a brand new character you level up that season pass you reap those rewards you place them within your vote people you place them within that chest that stash and then you reap those awards on your main character I mean that's one way you can look at it I mean like I said I love the idea of everybody starting at square one with a battle pass and a journey and everyone leveling up at the same time much like when the game released I love that idea I really do and like I said earlier it voids out people being able to progress and level quicker the battle pass quicker the seasonal content quicker on their main max level characters because we all know that would definitely be the case because the XP games you can earn as a high-level character is way more than what you'd earn as a fresh character and I mean three months people's a long long time I mean it isn't like it's a couple of weeks three months a long long time if you're a player that hasn't got a well almost end game character three months into release I mean I question if Diablo 4 is really the game for you because three months is a long long long time the game's been out now what I'm not even sure I can't remember I've lost track this game has swallowed my life yes I'm playing it hardcore basically full-time so yes I'm a little different to the people that have work school college who 100% can't go on this game every day that's to be expected that is understandable but still three months is a long long time in my opinion to reach that end game and if in that end game between three months guys like I said I question if Diablo 4 is the game for you so yes this is a system like I said is coming very soon indeed it's a system many players are looking forward to and I can't wait for it myself but I'm not gonna lie when I do read replies from a lot of players some people are really really upset with it even some guys veteran Diablo players because as we know seasons battle passes haven't been a thing in Diablo in the past I mean ARPG is a yes this is sticking to that kind of ARPG theme with doing this but a lot of older Diablo players ain't happy about this either so if you go to that tweet I'll link it down below within the video description for that's his tweet you read some of the replies to it guys it's definitely definitely a thing some players are unhappy with which again it's fully understandable some players may not want to create brand new characters some people picked a main to be their main they want to progress all future content on their main again this is something I fully understand too and I wouldn't be upset if Diablo 4 and Blizzard did a complete 180 on their decision to do the battle pass and the season journey like this but I'm pretty sure time will tell guys again like I said some people are happy with this I'm quite happy with it I don't really mind but some people are seriously seriously upset with it guys let me know your thoughts down below within that comments section are you happy to create a brand new character just for the purposes of this seasonal battle pass if you don't create a new character you cannot progress this let me know your thoughts down below people do you think this will be a system Blizzard go back on do you think it's a system they'll do a complete 180 on I mean I personally can kind of see happening if enough of an uproar is cause I mean there's still time to do this but in my personal opinion I do think Blizzard know best and I do think having to create a brand new character a seasonal character is probably the best route but hey that's just my opinion I'm excited for it either way guys the end of the video has arrived if you enjoyed it leaving a like really helps out if you like what you see want to see more be sure to subscribe and hopefully guys I will see you on that next one
