REDDIT DIABLO 4 UPDATE

Keeping scaling as a core design requirement while accepting new design ideas could open the door to entirely fresh progression systems. It sucks as an old school RPG vet though, who sees it as a hollowed out version of a system that's been overdone to death (traditional leveling). Then again, design docs show Diablo 1 was explicitly designed to feel like a slot machine so you can't get too elitist with such a game. Yeah I feel like I'm taking crazy pills reading most of the comments. And keep it to 10, meaningful power ritual levels (so players get the satisfaction of building up gear intra-scaling steps) not these meaningless pretend levels where the autoscaling is so in your face and monotonizes the content. Even if they wanted to keep the pretense of levels, I can imagine better ways to do it, like having a 'power ritual' as part of the lore/story that unlocks new abilities but also powers up the demons, with an overarching story that part of the main quest is channeling enough power to open an intedimensional gate for the final zone or something. The worst part is how leveling can actually be harmful for the player because fear gets outdated while enemies are strictly level scaled. The only place it's actually important now is content gating, but this could be replaced by better game design like a progression quest that requires some exploring around the zone, or even a reputation system to advance would be better from a gameplay perspective. If every enemy you fight is always the same power level, just get rid of the level system instead of pretending it is still there. That's the part I dislike most - how bad it is from a game design perspective. From character builds and skills to lore and theories, we have it all covered.
