Diablo 4 developer Blizzard has been revealing a little more about its post-game now that fans have had a couple of weekends getting to grips with how it will play and what to expect on release.

For the more dedicated players out there, that probably won't matter too much, especially since participating in each "seasonal journey" will get players most of the way there naturally. For the more casual player, that time sink
