ZiggyD Dev Interview

ZiggyD uploaded an interview with D3 developers Kevin Martens and John Yang to his youtube channel. In the video he gives a summary of content coming Patch 2.3, with the interview starting at roughly the 3 min 40 sec mark. We've also put together a quick summary of the main points below. Check it out!

• Devs think the item hunt is in a good spot, and that it's more varied than ever - specially with the changes to Bounties and tuning of Adventure mode.
• They are always looking for ways to improve the Item Hunt game.
• Rift Bosses were tuned so that players don't have to "fish" a better boss. They are trying to match their power level.
• They have no new systems so far along development for them to announce right now.
• Regardind group experience leeching - they are gonna wait and see if it becomes a huge issue or if it's a matter of player preference. It also comes down to whether the actual gameplay of that style is boring.
• On the Paragon problem (for leaderboards) - instead of removing the benefit of Paragon levels for everybody so that the top 2% have a better competitive environment, they spent a ton of time tuning high GRs and higher difficulties.
• They'll discuss a system (suggested by Ziggy and the community) that can limit Paragon influence on the higher GR levels of competition (for instance, by capping mainstat influence).
