there will be 5 classes still which you can choose your gender now ^^ but necromancer may been replace with witch doctor.... not sure tho they could add more classes later on

still alot to look foward to if your a diablo II fan  

woah nice

Cannot wait omg lol. Friends used to always say "there'll be a d3!!! BE OPTIMISITC" and it really did come XD. I doesn't look like a d3 imo.. Looks more like a revamp of d2 with better graphics which is still really cool :d

I wanna play it nowwwwww xD

nah doub't it'll be next year. still lots of testing and development. but i hate the direction they're going in, art/graphic wise. it's like a softcore version of diablo series directed towards 14 year olds. they totally lost the dark gothicness of the first 2 diablo games. still, it doesn't stop me from playing it.

Even my sister wants to play it and she pretty much doesn't play games at all :ehehe: . Yes I agree, it looks too bright and colourful now.. Looks more and more like WoW :.....: but still can't wait to play it. Would be so fun trying new builds and maybe itll be more versatile now.. I made a frost nova synergy sorc with energy shield and telekinesis for fun haha... 900 dmg frost nova at 200fcr is pretty cool :P

dunno, ill probably be too busy to play it.

I've been waiting for this..for so many years..lol
The new graphics remind me of Warcraft III, only better. It does seem to have lost its look, but as long as the content is there, I'll be happy. I loved the first two, maybe this one will be even better ^.^

I wonder if they'll keep the grinding and repetitive mf + baal runs to lvl and find gear or if they'd do something liek wow and give each level range content to lvl up in.

How cna you say it stoo bright O.o
The first game was a frigging dungeon full of evil critters! and a fat bastard!
Then the boss in the open world area ATE one of the characters during the fight!

And besides...we only saw two lvls lol xD

I'm hoping grinding and mf, because if its anything like WoW..I'll just go back to D2

D2 one could get 1-90 in 5 hours at uber tristram, 90-99 was maybe a week's worth of hell baal runs.

D3 will probably follow something along the same lines.

Of course this will be tried out, I've got 5 level 99s in D2 so one can probably tell that I like that game :$

Once this game is released, I will stop playing any other MMO and will go full time on this. Maybe we can start an Aeth there xD

i wonder if they will bring more of the old classes back to d3...Hammerdin anyone? :game:

But we can wait for a looonggg time for this. Despite the trailers and movie, I bet Blizzard will only release it in year 2010. So try not to get too excited over it so early.

My hope for this game is slowly dieing. They take one step forward, and three back.

They released the Wizard class a few days ago, looks awesome. It still has some of the old skills, but the new ones look pretty cool too. This was the step forward.

The steps back?
1: Max players in a game went from 8, to 4.
2: Smaller groups = even more limited PvP
3: Stats are auto-allocated.

Seriously? Auto-allocation? This kills the customization of characters. It kills re-playability. What was more fun than customizing a character the way you wanted? Having a sorceress as a tank, having an Assassin built for Whirlwind instead of her normal traps/arts, that's what made this game so fun. This just throws the characters into stereotypical builds that, other than skills, have no uniqueness to them.
Also with auto-allocation, this basically makes gear class specific. You can't have a sorceress wearing plate mails anymore. Each type of weapon will be limited to either physical or magical builds.

I'm not looking for another Diablo II, but I'm sure as hell not looking for whats slowly coming to be called Diablo III

O.o hmm i dont like the Max players 8 to 4 ...........

But i love Auto-Allocated........ this way the GAME WILL be Balanced and no need to screw up ur build 10 times before u get it right ;P.

I really hate manual located stats in any game....... every MMO that had it... made me hate it... :P expect Diablo 2 it was only one O.o that had good enough story for me to ignore it.....

O.o and i dont play Diablo series for PVP i play it for PVE x) but that just me..... i never liked Duels in Diablo cause their was always a hacker/glitch/ or some way for player to lose ur items or try to steal ur items.......

that just my 5 cents... no more Locating STATS points YIPPY!!! it a Happy Day O.o

(i am quiteing every other game for a 3 weeks at least to play this)

Me and my brother agreed, we'll try it, but it isn't living up to the its name yet.

I'm just the opposite with the manual stats. I can't stand for a game to do it for me. I would rather build it myself, skills and stats. With auto-allocation, every time you play as that type of character, you'll end up with the same stats, just different skills. I prefer having the choice of more strength...or maybe more life...or more mana because I'm using too many potions. I don't want a game deciding how I should have my character.

As for the 8 to 4 players in a game, that seriously blows. Just you and 3 other people at once...seems like it will kill the social aspect a bit.

ya i defently agree with 8 to 4 thing...... Maybe O.o they put it higher again....... i think it be very easy for them to upgrade to 8 players again later on... :P so if it only 4 players in release they make it 8 or maybe even 12 to 16 in a patch?

thats what I was thinking, that they should have doubled how many people could be in a game, not halfed :(

this game is crack.....I still can't get off D2! This one will make me go insane aswell!
