Blizzard updates WoW Forever gameplay and Diablo 5 scaling

Players participating in the beta for WoW Forever are experiencing various gameplay developments. In the Classic Plus version, rare mobs have been updated with new loot, including set items that provide movement speed bonuses to help players during the early leveling stages. However, the presence of large streamer communities causing chaos in major cities has led some players to seek refuge in Roleplay (RP) servers, sparking concerns among the dedicated RP community about potential disruption.

Separately, Blizzard is addressing feedback regarding Diablo 5. Game Director Joe Shely stated that the developers intend to move away from the controversial automatic level-scaling seen in previous titles. The goal is to ensure that players feel a tangible sense of power progression when leveling up or acquiring better gear, rather than having enemies scale in strength at the same rate as the player.
