Overview

• Diablo 4's Lunar Awakening event, celebrating the Lunar New Year, has been criticized for its short duration, with some players completing it in less than a day.
• The event has faced backlash for cosmetic unlock restrictions, requiring players to create new characters to claim class-specific rewards.
• Misleading information about free rewards has also been a point of contention, with discrepancies between promised and actual available cosmetics.
• Despite the criticisms, the event offers highly praised free cosmetics, including a player cosmetic and a horse, considered among the best free rewards since the game's launch.
• The event's issues come as Diablo 4 struggles to recover from a poorly received Season 3 launch, with the Lunar Awakening feedback adding to the game's challenges.
