https://www.wowhead.com/diablo-4/news/managing-expectations-is-key-to-improving-diablo-4-rod-fergusson-interview-with-334696






In an interview with GamesRadar, General Manager Rod Fergusson owned up to negative sentiments surrounding Diablo 4's first Season, acknowledging the team moved too fast and failed to manage expectations, despite feeling like they were doing the right things.


Fergusson states that "one of the things we recognised early on was that we had made some sort of mistake in managing expectations. It was hard because we felt like what we were doing for the game were the right things to do."

"But there were other parts that needed to go along with it," the Diablo franchise lead continues. "We were trying to move a little fast, we were trying to be very responsive and agile. So we were like 'hey, we have two-thirds of a solution. So let's give them the two thirds, and we'll do the other third later.' And that didn't work out in our favour."

Diablo 4 enthusiasts are only worth 2/3 of a solution. How does this make you feel barn bros?

does that mean we should get 1/3 of the cost of the game refunded?

I'd like to know what, specifically has been 2/3 solved because I feel like that's a gross overestimation.

They are talking to Microsoft, not you. Rod is explaining his management decision so that he can keep his job when Microsoft takes over. Welcome to business 101
