On July 20, Season 1 of Diablo 4 will be released, but the major patch for the season is already online. However, it is not well received, and developer Blizzard feels the need for discussion, which will be addressed in a Campfire Talk.
When will the Campfire Talk take place? The Community Director of Diablo 4, Adam Fletcher, has announced the stream for Friday, July 21. We do not know the time yet. The last Campfire Talk was at 8 PM, also on a Friday.
New information about the exact start time should be available soon.
What kind of stream is this? It is a casual gathering with the developers, who will be addressing some not-so-casual questions.
In the stream, they want to discuss the adjustments of the season update and the strong criticism that arose along with the patch notes. They have heard the feedback and want to address it.
Why is the update not well received? Players criticize that there have been too many nerfs – in the classes, certain activities, or the calculation of experience points when facing stronger monsters.
