Diablo 4, Blizzard\u2019s beloved ARPG has had a bit of a rocky history. Releasing as a fantastic return to form, the game went a bit off-track when transitioning into its seasonal model, with many players not happy about the Season 1 offerings. The following season managed to restore a bit of faith in players, hinting at a potential turnaround for the title. However, this comeback was shortlived with the Season of the Construct, which has been critiqued by players. The same can be said about Season 3\u2019s newest content, the Gauntlets. Gauntlets are a new competitive fixed non-linear dungeon that has players fighting for the highest score. This new content has been slammed by the player base right out of the gate as being another disappointment in the new season. But it seems that some Diablo 4 players have come forward to defend the mode, claiming it does exactly \u201cwhat it set out to do\u201d. Diablo 4 players defend Gauntlets amid backlash from community Gauntlets arrived on March 5th, being a fresh new piece of content for players to partake in. However many considered the content to be boring straight away, serving as a re-skin of activities they\u2019ve done before with \u201cboring\u201d loot to boot. Although some players have come forward expressing confusion at the outrage the community is having. \u201cI\u2019m confused: The gauntlet is good\u2026 It\u2019s content for a specific activity, to test yourself against the best players in the game\u2026 I like it, it does what it set out to do, it was never for gearing, so it doesn\u2019t feel compulsory,\u201d one Redditor argued. Others agreed, claiming that many players are only outraged because they aren\u2019t able to accept the content for what it is. \u201cPeople are complaining that it\u2019s not random map\/AoZ\/GRs\/whatever else they have in mind catering specifically to them and don\u2019t just accept it for what it is: A competitive leaderboard,\u201d another player pointed out. \u201cEvery player now demands that every single part of every single game should cater exactly to their playtime, playstyle, and skill level.\u201d another agreed. With Gauntlets being relatively new to Diablo 4, only time will tell what the mode may mean to the player base, but it certainly seems to have the community split.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Diablo 4 players defend Gauntlet mode amid Season 3 controversy BlizzardDiablo 4 players have defended the new Gauntlet mode amid controversy in Season 3 of Blizzard\u2019s ARPG.
