Diablo\u2019s all-new Gauntlet endgame content went live alongside the launch of Patch 1.3.3. Blizzard developers designed The Gauntlet as a non-linear dungeon meant to test every D4 player\u2019s mastery and skill. Time limits keep things interesting, too, adding extra pressure for those chasing high scores on the dungeon\u2019s leaderboards. Suffice it to say, The Gauntlet was intended as a way to spice up the endgame experience. However, the Diablo 4 community seems miffed by the latest addition as many label it yet another Season 3 letdown. Diablo 4 players disappointed by The Gauntlet, so far Discourse about The Gauntlet has taken over the Diablo subreddit. One Reddit post gaining lots of traction reads, \u201cGauntlet is straight garbage change my mind.\u201d Another post mocks the new Gauntlet mode for feeling like little more than a sleep-inducing affair. Players wanted leaderboards but don\u2019t like how they\u2019ve been implemented through a mode whose dungeon layout, mob density, and rewards leave much to be desired. \u201cThis is probably the worst addition so far,\u201d said one user who went on to call out the glitches and \u201cjunk loot\u201d rewards. The user also shaded the number of times the update was delayed. Harsher critiques label Diablo 4\u2019s Gauntlet a glorified Nightmare Dungeon reskin, with one person commenting, \u201cOk, I am glad to see that I am not the only one who thinks gauntlet is just another lazy reskin of something we have done 100x.\u201d Others who were looking for a reason to return after Season 3\u2019s unsatisfactory rollout said this won\u2019t bring them back into the fold. \u201c\u2026I\u2019m already done with the season. Gauntlet is way too boring to bring me back, just like AoZ was last season.\u201d \u201cSeason 3 continues to disappoint,\u201d wrote someone else, echoing the thoughts of a contingent of players who\u2019ve tried the new endgame update. For now, it seems most are just hoping Diablo 4 Season 4 delivers. And said hopes remain pretty high, given previous promises of itemization changes arriving in the fourth season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Diablo 4 players bash The Gauntlet for being another Season 3 disappointment Blizzard EntertainmentDiablo 4 players have already had enough of The Gauntlet, which many think represents another disappointing Season 3 addition.
