I thought the same. What Rhykker does on his channel is fine, but he is no host outside of that. I still like his channel and content on YT.

How dumb can you be … like seriously? Pathetic
Not at launch. No plans to implement it at this time.
Absolutely based decision! I applaud the devs for this one.
i dont like him, i hate his “hey folks this is rhykker” … you dont say sherlock when i am on your channel, its like he thinks you were expecting someone from DuckTales
I dont like how he talks, they way he talks … i dont watch him … i dont find him very smart. He often talks about useless boring stuff for a long time.
Maybe why no one watches him. Rarely he has 100k views.
There are other and bigger diablo youtubers with better understandings and like a sense to disect problems, offer solutions … which is something thats suits me better … smarter people
If you actually listened you would know they said not at launch and maybe later down the line depending on feedback (currently only a few people even ask for this.), then gave their reasoning for not using it that I personally agree with. Blizzard often does talk around some questions rather than being direct but they did a good job in this stream and directly told us no (keyboard on console and two people on the same PC.), or maybe at a later date depending on feedback from the player base after launch with some of the other asked for features.
Overlay maps suck, they ruin the fun and flow of PoE, D2, and other games. I prefer the setup we had in D4, it works and I can actually see what’s going on and focus on combat rather than just the map. It helps that the world is well made and more unique rather than copy and paste rooms like in D3/D2 so you can actually learn the layouts and better understand the locations you are in without needing an overlay map.

Rhykker did good, nice touch of Blizz to host him according to me, dunno why all the hate. 
Why the hate on Rhykker?
He did well for the live stream.
I don’t think him expressing disappointment in Rhykker’s involvement being nearly 0 in dev stream constitutes as ‘hate on Rhykker’. If he wasn’t a fan, he’d not have been disappointed to see that Rhykker wasn’t more involved in the stream in the first place.

Hopefully they fix the map zoom level resetting every time you open it, that was annoying. Otherwise it’s a good map
cus ryker wont expose weakness he cant ask practical shift
Fact is that however small his role was he did good. He let the devs speak and we all know that devs have/had interesting things to say. Rhykker was “exposed” to more diablo as player and did not steal priceless stream time with random BS. I appreciate that. On that stream devs did talk a lot and that was great. Rhykker did not decrease quality of what was presented.

He did nothing but follow a script, a retarded monkey could have done his job. He stat there like a yes man and ignored all the issues people had.

I have no idea who Rhykker is. The stream is the first time I ever heard the name or saw the person. From what I gathered he’s must be a Diablo enthusiast and twitch/YouTube content creator.
I’m guessing his involvement was more fan service than anything else. He had a sheet of paper in his hands, probably had a list of acceptable talking point/question guidelines to follow and in which order to address or bring them up.
I used to have respect for Rhykker. But being that he was invited, it is clear to me that he is a yes man…they would never invite anyone they knew would bring up controversial opinions or point out flaws to actually represent the community.
I thought Rhykker did a wonderful job but looking at the paper on his leg I’m sure he was versed on what he could and could not ask. I think he was there for PR and to put a familiar face to make folks feel more at ease.
Another reason I think he was selected was because out of all the mainstream Diablo 4 content creators not only does he appear in his videos unlike Open World Games (which is actually my favorite) but also because he was the only content creator that had full gameplay from start to finish on most if not all the classes.
What issues that no one brought up at some point in the steam?
Every single big issue was talked about.
Druid/Barb he tested them and they are his favorite classes now, and going by CBT leaks they would do very well at endgame and with enough talent points to make a proper build as everyone expected.
Necro summon nerf? He said he’s not a fan of the playstyle but that they work well for the vision devs wanted for the class.
Map overlay? Was brought up and devs said no, at least not before release, maybe later depending on how popular the idea is (currently it’s not very asked for.).
M&K on Xbox/PS? Was brought up, and they said no.
Couch co-op on PC? They said no, too many issues for that, not to mention how few people would use it.
The popular issue with dungeons (Rhykker even said it was one of his biggest issues with the beta.) are fixed and no longer an issue.
People complained there was too little power tied into levels, Devs proved them wrong by showing how much power you gain from the paragon system.
People complained about the paragon system being too simple and having only stat boosts and that was also proven wrong.
Lack of WSAD like all the popular games of this genre, they said they might add it after launch.
What are all of the other issues people have that have not been brought up in the stream or beforehand that are not ridiculous and obviously not going to be changed?
Who is Rhykker 
some streamer ?
