Just found out about the wipe system

[Warjack]

I just found out that there will be wiped progress after each season step. From one moment to another i dont feel motivated to keep playing anymore.. Please devs rethink this system!!

people moaning about a wipe system. loads off games have it. look at rust that wipes

rust give you the ability to host your own private server and never reset it.
your point ? completely unrelated situation.

rust official server wipe so does this game.
if one human had unofficial server then they will not wipe.
my answer was completely related.

lets bring another game up. Diablo 4 reset every season and you have to start from fresh.

OMG! I just found out about this. I haven't been so hyped for a game for years and not this! I didn't experience this in any of the betas I have played so it comes as a surprise. Good that the game will be free. I just have to see how many wipes I can take before it becomes to much.

Once Human is fun, but farming to reset your progress nonstop. NO! And don't even get me started on a pseudo-island that's just going to serve as a prestigious place to 'wank' about the seasons that have been completed... I couldn't care less.

That's one of the things I hated about Diablo, I played two seasons, uninstalled the game and never played the franchise again.

So if the OH developers don't change their strategy, I won't be there. And the game will quickly lose its generalist community.

I wish good luck to those who decide to stay.

Wipe system sure makes this game die very fast. I already did made ask about this topic and people are very likely hating this included me. Wish this game had dedicated servers with own rules.. or just start their base decaying after like lets say half month. or give us second character where u can have everything ofc with every season late. but i think this game dont have such a lot of content to be able to do it rn... there is rly massive map that sure never be finished cause of wipes... or if they do wipes just for while until map and char progress tree have actually more stuff.. i probably wont mind that. but if ever this game made it to the end of finishing whole map.. How the hell u want make this to have wipe system.. Every year or 2? Well better will be own server hosting... at this case. Also i love they dont want to make it p2w only skins...but its just promises also sure wont make lot of money of it.. which is sad but p2w sucks so its big + from me but there we go again ... dedicated servers.. would be handy xD bcs if not wipe people makes mad... then no money for hosting the game by it self..

Diablo 4 offers persistent servers and seasonal servers. Diablo 4's failing is in that it rarely offers new content on the persistent servers beyond balance changes and bug fixes, and instead reserves the bulk of the new content for seasonal characters. And that is part of why its popularity has suffered.

But season 4 is rated as it's best season yet by many, all theyv done is add quality of life with the aspect codex and loot tweaks. Like pretty much all arpg's players rise when a new season starts then lowers. rinse repeat. I think what's concerning here is that it's a 6 week duration and not so much a wipe.

Well that's the thing. Using D4 as an example, its seasonal content is always paired with quality of life changes, balance updates, and fixes that are applied to both the seasonal and persistent realm. So even if you're not a fan of of participating in a season there's something there to draw your interest back in.

That's why it doesn't make sense to attribute all of the population boom at the start of each season to the actual seasonal gameplay. I would argue most people are not excited by the prospect of leveling up a new character solely for the purpose of fighting malignant mobs, vampires, or whatever the theme of the season is. Most of them are excited about changes to loot, balance, and fixes.

Is it any wonder the one season with absolutely no gimmick and only quality of life improvements, loot changes, etc., ended up being the most popular? It's like for the first time Blizzard realized they should give the people what they're actually interested in.

I'm sure they'll go right back to having everyone rolling new characters to fight not-zombies next season, though.

Progression wipes? Yeah no, my interest in this went from sky high to basement levels. Hard pass. Enjoy ya'll.

It's weird the way people are acting like this is some crazy idea. Blizz has been doing this with Diablo for more than a decade. And many people continue to show up for season after season to play that game.

d4 is a ghost town stop the lies lol.

Think the qol should of been how the game released tbh, then after all seasons mechanics would of just been a bonus.

only reason I think 6 weeks is too short is because people play multiple games and casuals don't put many hours in, it most definitely will be a turn off for them. They are the ones to keep games alive. We will see.

[DEVILDICE]

Man..I was so hype for this game for a whole year until I found out that it's just a infinitely repeating grind of the same stuff every few weeks. Can't we just have a normal game?

[swefpifh]

I almost wish I'd bought it at the normal price so I wouldn't have this ridiculous wipe system. :(
