17 years ago TES Oblivion blatantly demonstrated how bad of a feature 'level scaling' is, seeing Level 1 bandits spawning in wearing expensive end game gear and hitting harder than bosses, while still begging for 5 gold coins. Leveling up made your character feel weaker.
I tuned in to a couple D4 streams today and both of them had similar comments by the streamer, "the bosses were much easier when they rushed them on a low level toon". That said it's still beta and can possibly be delayed again to give them time to fine tune things.
Good way to sum it up and I agree. I struggled kinda hard with one mid Act I boss then watched my buddy on stream many levels below me just kinda...walk through the same boss. Was very frustrating.
That said, I am largely enjoying the game overall and consider it a big upgrade over D3. That's just one gripe I have thus far, months out from actual release.
