Each day that passes is more likely that we'll be getting some major Diablo 4 announcement. And, considering that The Game Awards is now only a few days away, the announcement may occur at Diablo 4 Gold the show. While there hasn't been any official confirmation from Blizzard numerous sources appear to be quite certain about this.
As per Insider Gaming, "this is continuing to be the case, with over 100 journalists getting the opportunity to see the behind-the scenes presentation as well as the chance to experience hands-on playing the game. The embargo on the event and hands-on experiences will lift on December 7.
"During the presentation, Rod Fergusson invited all presenters to view The Game Awards as they'll be [making] some announcements."Blizzard confirms that Diablo 4 is still getting Set Items, though you'll probably have to wait until after launch to play with them.
Game Director Joe Shely explains during a recent roundtable interview that the reimagining of sets in a manner that fits Diablo 4 properly wouldn't be feasible for the launch of Diablo 4 in the first quarter of next year, even though the team is thinking of the possibility of incorporating them into it's live services.
"As we've been building the game, we believed that we could create sets in a different style that's similar to what we've seen from Diablo 3. However, we've needed more time to integrate them into the game in such a way that they would fit perfectly with the rest of Diablo 4, so you won't be seeing sets when you first start into the game." Shely explains. "We believe that sets are very cool and want to do them right - so we're looking into for the live services we're planning to offer."
"There's a staff legendary in the demo that turns the spell's fireball into three fireballs," ex-game director Luis Barriga told Polygon(opens in new tab) back in 2019. "The distinction could be due to the fact that, you know it's a set that's available in the live version of Diablo 3 gives you bonuses more in the thousands. We're thinking of designing the game at present to be a bit more limited to prevent becoming caught up in that growing Power Curve."
If you're unfamiliar the term, Set Items are typically strong pieces of gear that offer greater power when fully put together. They're "set" as they're always offering the same benefits, and also they're part of an entire set. They first came into play during Diablo 2, though it was 3 that they became extremely dominant. It remains to cheap Diablo IV Gold be seen how they'll impact what happens to the Diablo 4 meta should they arrive, though we have no doubt that their impact on the growing fashion scene will be greatly felt.
