oops sorry! didnt see the other thread

 

[JSt0rm]

I know a chunk of my life will be lost to this game and I'm not depressed about it

video of the monk in action

Looks like a fun class to play and an improvement upon the assassin, whose martial arts skills always seemed kind of awkward.

 

[FallenHero]

Looks like I found the class I will be playing.

 

[Kalmah]

Awesome to see. I imagine the shortage of replies has do do with people just wanting to see a freakin release date.

 

[Daishiki]

I got to try it out. He's pretty fun, but I will still probably start with the wizard. Like they said, he is more fragile. I definitely could not take hits like the barbarian.

 

[Sylvanas]

Can't wait to play a monk

 

[TBSN]

Cool, I like the idea of a monk. But wait, there is really only one class that can fight in the traditional hack-n-slash manner (barbarian of course)

I really don't like how they are making everything dependent on the skills. When I played D2 a lot of the time I just bashed through with my sword. Now there are essentially 3 types of wizards...

 

[TBSN]

oops, I didn't watch the video...

Much more awesome gameplay video, with some 4 player action (11 minutes!): http://www.wegame.com/watch/Di...lass_Trailer_Diii_net/

Looking good!

On a side note, does anyone think that the Barbarian looks very similar to the Force Commander in Dawn of War 2?

Large Hammer/Mallet/Maul, a bash attack that smashes a line in front of him.... with a jet pack, a jump/smash attack, a run-through them attack too....i know, huge generalisation but I could not help but think of it when I saw the boss fight videos for the first time.

 

[damage424]

Loving that gameplay footage. Looks freaking awesome. On a bad note they said not to expect D3 in 2010, but sc2 and wow expansions for 2010.

 

[Lumathix]

This game is gonna be so badass.

Kinda, yes. But that's still good!

 

[Appledrop]

oooh, I had expected D3 to stray from the isometric style viewpoint and go with a wow style view
sooo glad they haven't .. iso rpg's > all

and idd.. that gameplay footage looks pretty damn cool!! although...slightly street fighter ish

 

[blurredvision]

I wish D3 was coming before SC2.

 

[zebano]

ohhh. I'm salivating over the thought of spending hours of my life playing D3.

 

[KMFJD]

But it will have drm and will not have lan play, no sale!

It will come before SC2 is complete that's for sure, perhaps not Wings of Liberty, but the remaining two other "chapters", I would bet my soul on that.

[Gothgar]

[Baked]

I don't even know what I'm looking at. Everything's too busy.

 

[DukeN]

Any guesstimates on release date for D3? I want it to come out and at the same time don't want it to come out (afraid of losing sleep to it lol)
