In the latest developer stream for Diablo 4, Blizzard shared important information about Season 4. However, one of the developers present left a lasting impression on the community: Colin Finer. The likeable game designer completely won over the players with his open nature.
Who is the developer?
This is why “Colin” is so popular: Finer speaks quite openly in the developer stream about what is changing in Diablo 4. The fans’ impression is that, unlike the other devs, it doesn’t seem “rehearsed”, but rather natural.
The players feel understood and see Finer as one of their own: “I understood after just three words that he was really a Diablo player.” (via YouTube)
One of the topics Finer talked about was the improved crafting system of Season 4. According to fans, this now respects the players’ time and you no longer have to grind so much pointlessly.
There are dozens of comments praising Colin Finer on YouTube and Reddit. Some are even calling for him to be given sole control over the future of Diablo 4. Finer understands what people want, you can only go right with him.
You can find the full update here on YouTube. In the video below you can see the changes from the PTR to Season 4 in summary:

Season 4 fundamentally changes the game
The stream was generally about changes that are supposed to make the game feel better, such as the rewards dealer, where you can now buy the best items in the game. This change was also presented by Finer.
In order to make the game more accessible, values are reduced in many places – both in terms of the number of affixes on items and in terms of the properties themselves. Armor, for example, should be easier to understand; you only have to remember a number for the most important value.
Together with Colin Finer, Live Class Designer Adam Jackson, Associate Game Director Joseph Piepiora and Lead Seasons Designer Deric Nuñez spoke about Season 4 in the stream.
MeinMMO was even able to conduct an interview with Nuñez in advance and delve deeper into the subject. Together with lead game producer Timothy Ismay, we talked about the content of Season 4.
