As long as people who don't like it can ignore it and not miss out on anything (like let's say people who gather a lot craft gear faster, but you get gear by killing monsters and the odds are nicely balanced) then I'm fine there's no reason to argue against it if it's implemented well. It just makes sense that you'd have resource nodes. I don't have a problem with gathering tbh, I don't see how it isn't true to Diablo. And D4 has something in it that I absolutely hate (shared world, or more specifically the fact that it is forced and not optional).
I enjoyed D3 as just a game, but the writing and art style don't feel like Diablo. It got pretty long so TL DR: I kinda agree with the D2 statement.

I like that your example is a few elder scrolls plants, but if they can make resource gathering as simple and impulsive as skyrim i'll be hitting the gather button like a simpleton and stuffing my bag full of maghda wings or whatever the fuck without even pausing to consider if i need them It's weird because conceptually it shouldn't be more absurd than swiping a handful of gold off the ground into your purse, and with the right crusty, grognardy attitude it could actually bring a nice dash of flavor to crafting (like, get the guano and sulfur to add a fireball proc or whatever)īut it's such a big pain in the ass to balance, because if it's too obtrusive, or crafting is a garbage system with no incentive, or if it becomes as flavorless as diablo 3's shit-tier resources, well, why bother? diablo 3 tried to shake it up by putting specific crafting drops on specific monsters and they pulled it pretty quickly, what magic pixie dust do they have that the 3 team didn't? Now I wonder if they are personal like loot in D3 or not, like loot in D2.

Hopefully in the next quarterly update or something.Įdit: Ok I guess it's solved. The point is, I don't know. Would be great to get a clarification on what gathering will be, and on crafting in general and how both of those tie to the open world in D4. Did he mean that? Or maybe he considers getting materials by let's say killing specific monsters that only spawn in specific places as "gathering". When I hear "gathering" my mind goes back to collecting flowers and mining rocks in Dragon Age Inquisition, or many MMOs and other open world games. We want to make sure that if you go out of your way to collect all these recipes, materials, and things like that and spend your time to craft something that it's worth your while." He said "We wanna make sure that crafting, especially the gathering component, is fully integrated to the open world. Now I went back to check if I just made it up for whatever reason and well. Later I convinced myself that maybe I just confused something.
But I was confused why no one talked about it later on reddit and forums and I kinda forgot about it. So during Rhykker's interview with David Kim during Blizzcon 2019 I thought I heard David talk about gathering.

We want to have a good mix of power sources: characters naturally get stronger as they level up, skills have ranks that increase power, talents provide specific playstyle choices and additional character power, and of course items grant power and meaningful choices as well."ĭiablo IV is currently in development for PC and consoles.Last updated at 14:00:17 UTC Weekly Help Desk RAGE Loot Thread Trade Thread " in Diablo IV, power doesn’t come mostly from items. The same post also details the team's approach to power in Diablo IV. This includes changing the primary attack to something other than the left mouse button, helping separate movement from attacks. Diablo III actually limited skill slots to certain spell types as long as players didn't select Elective Mode from the options menu.Īllowing players to mix and match whichever skills they want is clearly a welcome option that will, surely, help with build diversity.ĭiablo IV will also allow players to rebind the keys for all their skill slots on both keyboard and controller. "Skill selection and assignment will always be completely open for all players.", he continued. Like many other things in the demo, the UI is not final and we will support Elective Mode-style skill selection.", Lead Systems Designer David Kim wrote in a post. "There’s a misconception that Diablo IV will lock skills to specific slots because of the BlizzCon demo user interface.
