I've enjoyed the occasional season in Diablo 3 (and I've taken years long beaks), and I do enjoy leveling up just for the sake of trying new things, but while I play a lot I'm still pretty casual. Every three months seems a pretty quick cadence to have to start new characters. My highest character is only level 60 I and I haven't even seen tier IV yet. I'm going to spend all my time chasing after rewards that I have no time to enjoy. Not the battle pass stuff - I'm just talking about trouncing the endgame with massively overpowered characters, which is really what I've played Diablo for since the first one was released.

I generally only play seasonal to enjoy the new mechanics, but 3 months makes it feel more like a job than fun. Obviously I'll give it a chance and see how it goes - maybe it won't be as bad as I fear. Anyone else? Is this just me? Is someone afraid they'd get bored with 6 month seasons?

I'm really excited for the first season, especially that they'll start us with the altars and map cleared. That's always annoying to do on a new playthrough. Now I just need to get my current character to tier 3 and finish hunting down the rest of the altars.

I knew all along the season was coming, but I don't feel "done" with my main. I really don't want to start leveling all over again.

But yes, ecstatic that they keep map and altars!
