New Class

Can't wait for the images update.

Monk. I don't know if it's because I'm getting Hellfire nostalgia or if this is just too awesome, but I think I've got a new favorite.

Hopefully Blizzard will have more information on D3 as the day goes by, would a projected release date be too much to ask?

quote Diablofans Blizzcon Coverage

Mike just said on the live stream that of the 2 games expected for 2010, SC2 and Cataclysm are the ones expected. That being said, we will not be seeing Diablo 3 in 2010 until further notice. 2011 it is then, lets just hope they can make it the best game possible!

I'd say that the push-back of the new Battle.net system has it tentatively scheduled for 2011. Starcraft 2 was slated for holiday release and was pushed back for the new Bnet development as well. Chances are they could deliver us a polished product sometime by late 2010, however, don't be too keen on it. Blizzard prefers quality over schedule. Also don't forget that while the game looks very polished and complete, we're only seeing the progress they've made thus far. The Acts and Characters shown in demos are near finalized (and even then, not entirely) while some of the later acts haven't even begun rendering stages yet.

I know that when they started rendering the 3d models of the Monk and creating his skills, they hadn't even decided on a fifth class yet, straight from the mouth of Bashiok. Just because the game looks ready doesn't mean it's even close.

Once D3 comes out it'd be interesting if someone made a mod for the Monk to make him like

Looks pretty badass.

Does look pretty awesome.

Something akin to an Assassin/Paladin by the looks of that?

YES!!!!! Now all we need is a playable demo so we can test this shit out!!!!!

I am so excited for this game.
