Diablo III: Reaper of Souls

I thought they were regularly 8 hours. It was suspect that we didn't have one at all this past Tuesday though. Sure doesn't help the server instability.

Interview discussing some small details about seasons and tiered rifts.

• "You have a timer to finish a Rift (kill enough monsters to draw out the boss and slay the boss) and the better you do, the more challenging the level that you get to tackle. For example, if you finished a Tiered Rift in just a few minutes, you’d get to jump ahead to a much harder rift. "
  
• Seasons (Ladders) and Tiered Rifts will be the major features of the 2.1 patch
  
• Seasons will have Leaderboards and Legendary items that drop only within the Seasons games
  
• When a Season ends everything transfers to your normal roster of characters
  
• Tiered Rifts will let you unlocked further Rifts as you beat one, which become progressively harder
  
• There are Leaderboards for Tiered Rifts as well as vanity rewards
  
• The PlayStation 4 version of the game will launch with everything up to patch 2.0.4
  
• Most of the Diablo 3 development team is still on board with Reaper of Souls

Season only legendaries seem a bit iffy. They'd have to be pretty good to be worth rerolling each season, and they'd have to be relatively common or else there'd be no point in doing it. Hopefully, they're not gamebreakingly good since I don't want to have to reroll every single class per season to get some. I'm expecting two, maybe three classes per season, depending on their length. Especially since I still haven't touched my Barbarian and Wizard yet post-expansion.
