Whether To Add Loot Filter Function In Diablo 4 Season 7 Has Caused Controversy

As we all know, the harvesting and use of loot has always been a very important part of Diablo 4 game, because whether you are roaming in Sanctuary or farming dungeons and bosses, you can find a lot of loot. But like other games, you can get more garbage, which may only occupy your inventory and bring you little benefit in Diablo 4 Gold.

Therefore, many players call on developers to add loot filter function in the game to help us better organize loot and avoid filling our inventory with some junk items.

Developers Value The Voice Of Players

To be honest, since the release of Diablo 4 Season 1, most players are not optimistic about its subsequent progress, because its poor basic content and poor quality of life functions have made many people give up it and turn to POE. However, fortunately, there are still people willing to express their concerns about Diablo 4, and the developers are also happy to accept these constructive opinions and make a lot of class balance overhauls and quality of life changes to the game. This is also an important reason why players have much better feedback on the current season update than when Diablo 4 was first released.

However, perhaps not everything can be achieved as expected. There are also players complaining that the developers have not seen their voices calling for the addition of a loot filter function to the game.

Reasons For The Lack Of Loot Filter

In fact, it is not completely unanswered. Aislyn Hall, one of the core designers of Diablo 4, once expressed his views on whether a loot filter mechanism will be added to the game in the future in an interview. To everyone’s surprise, Aislyn Hall did not directly answer yes or no.

Aislyn Hall said that their original intention of not adding loot filters was to allow every player to use the loot they found. Especially when players find some Legendary Items, even if you don’t need them, you can choose to recycle them at Blacksmith, or trade them with other players to earn D4 Gold, so that they can flow back into the economy.

In short, the developers hope that all items in Diablo 4 are meaningful, regardless of their role and background. The addition of loot filter may cause many players to reject some items that are not valuable to them, which is not what the developers expect. But this does not mean that they will say no to the loot filter function. Perhaps as the voices of players get louder and louder, the developers may change their views.

Developers And Players Have Different Attitudes Towards The Loot Filter Function

In fact, the developers are not opposed to the addition of the loot filter function, but the developers believe that every loot has value and hope that players can explore their value. If the loot filter function is added, players will empty their inventory by discarding loot they think is useless, which leads to the economic situation of players becoming worse when there are fewer items to sell and recycle.

However, players hold a different view. They believe that the addition of the loot filter function will bring them great convenience. By screening more valuable loot, every space in the inventory will undoubtedly be fully utilized.

So far, players’ desire to add the loot filter function is still strong and has a trend of intensifying. I believe that developers will not ignore this phenomenon. One day, a loot filter function will be added to Diablo 4.
