Diablo Season 4is set to be a soft reset for the game’s seasonal content, and so far, the community is optimistic about the future of the loot-chaser.
Since Season 1 of Diablo 4, many fans have expressed frustration with the seasonal themes only being temporary fixtures, with the loss of Vampire Powers after Season 2 being the main example. Season 3’s Construct theme failed to capture imaginations quite like the Vampire threat did. Season 4 abandoning traditional seasons brings some players hope that popular themes won’t go away, but be absorbed into the game as permanent mechanics.
Talking optimistically about Season 4 onReddit, one poster said: “Actually can’t wait. This season is a new beginning for the game. Should it have taken the 4th season to actually feel like the game is launching for real? No. But it did, and we’re here, and I couldn’t be more excited about it.”
Others said: “Gonna be a blast. Then later this year we get an expansion! The expansion should make this game really take off!”, and “May 14 is not coming fast enough”.

Some spoke about Season 4 renewing their interest in the game, saying: “Same!! I skipped S3 as I didn’t like the pet mechanic, but I’m pretty hyped again!” and “So stoked!! I’m goingdouble-swing Dust Devil Barb. Haven’t tried Barb yet can’t wait!”
Others were more cautious about Diablo 4 Season 4, saying: “I hate to say this, but mark my words, this sub is gonna be toxic within a week or two of the new season.” However, the commenter was mostly referring to Diablo 4 fans being hard to please rather than Season 4 itself not living up to expectations.
