“‘Diablo 4’ is a full-price game built for a PC/PS/Xbox audience. We’re committed to providing an incredible range of content post-launch, and will continue to focus on cosmetic items and full storylines for years to come. It is fixed around the extension.
Rod Ferguson, the head of the ‘Diablo’ franchise, personally came forward and nailed the ‘Diablo 4’ billing model to a flat rate. Rod Ferguson, the general manager, said that the sales model consists mainly of cosmetic items for character appearance transformation, and he plans to sell the scenario as an expansion pack in the future.
The reason Rod Ferguson nailed it seems to be because there are unreasonable observations about the ‘Diablo 4’ billing system. The background goes back to ‘Diablo Immortal’, which was released on June 2nd. With the release of ‘Diablo Immortal’, a partially paid model was adopted. Charges were applied to in-game legendary gem farming, etc., and excessive charging models such as the addition of a battle pass were criticized by gamers.
As some people are paying attention to the possibility that such a charging model will continue to ‘Diablo 4’, it seems that Rod Ferguson is directly evolving.
On the other hand, despite Rod Ferguson’s announcement, users are still in the stage of sending a voice of distrust. For example, ‘Diablo Immortal’ also said that it would not use an excessive charging model before its release.
Regarding this, a game expert said, “From the point of view of PC gamers, ‘Diablo 4’ is like a work of last resort. He explained, “In order to prevent the application of partial payment in the first place, it is close to the action of gamers to create a controversy and send a warning message to the developer.”
Meanwhile, Rod Ferguson succeeded in the ‘Gears of War’ franchise in the past and became a producer representing the game industry. He is a person who has previously produced games with outstanding quality such as ‘BioShock Infinite’, ‘Infinity Blade’, and ‘Mafia 3’. His main role is as a ‘salvation pitcher’, he is put into the development of problematic works and is known as a producer who leads and makes decisions so that it can be transformed into a high-quality game. He was also recently reported to have been involved in ‘Diablo 2 Reason Luxurious’. As a producer who is running on a winning streak until now, he will be involved in ‘Diablo 4’ this time.
