Global Community Development Director Adam Fletcher jumped into a reddit thread related to the Season 2 livestream announcements to clarify a few things.
Season 2 will be bringing QoL improvements both at launch and throughout its duration, as Fletcher explained in response to the perception that changes might only come later in the season. Let’s take a look at the full quote:
There is a line in the blog that I’ve seen some questions on that I want to clarify:
“The Developer Update livestream also details many quality-of-life updates arriving throughout Season 2.”
This was being interpreted as if we have quality of life changes coming throughout the season only and not at the start. I will say we have a significant amount of changes coming at the start of the season and we will be talking about that on October 4th. But we are also committing to a bunch more in subsequent updates all throughout Season 2 as well and will share the first one of those on October 10th with that stream and more at BlizzCon.
