I think it depends on the monster in question. Do I think golems need boobs or a penis? No, not really. Succubus, or more human-like demons? Yeah, it adds to authenticity, I think.
I voted For the last option, let the little demons have thier manhood/femininhood i just dont want to see a cinamatic with a GIANT wang on it when my kids wlaking past my comp to get a drink of water.
all in all if it makes the Rating go up better for us less kids to deal with.
Edit: sorry i am abit buzzed forgot where i was going with this when i started ^ ^. i do think it would inhance the gameplay, it adds a certain freakyness to the game to realize that these things, are that close to being human. with that said.
This thread will give me nightmare :P. This is such a weird topic to talk about. I have seen 'Are you sleep naked ?' thread on other forum, but this seems more weird.
If they really have genitals, I can see a plot that Leah, the girl in cinematic trailer, is kidnapped by demons to Azmodan --I think lord of sins will be handsome-- and we need to help her. Then in the final cinematic we see her rub her belly with worry and say ' Help! I think I am knocked up.' and the message appear 'To be continue' :O.
So in short, for the people who don't like reading much..., genetalia for demons is a good thing. Because they distract, frighten, arouse and much more, precisely what you want from demons in a horror game...
Arouse ? Are you sure ?
If scary monster running toward me, I will not be aroused. They are not succubus, right ?
Skohsl! What a great post! I totally agree. I was never able to put it into words as you have. There is just something especially terrifying about completely naked demons - male or female. Its just so raw and confronting because it goes completely against our moral values.
Obviously we don't want to turn it into a porn fest, but with the right balance I believe it can be an effective element.
The Succubi in Diablo I were a lot more naked than the Succubi in DII, unfortunately.
Never mind how much more naked the first one was, I'm amazed by how much better it looked overall. That's crazy.

It's part of the understood anatomy of angels. Demons, being angels, are also inequipped.(Haven't you seen Dogma? xD)
I don't know where Dogma derived that notion from. Paintings, sculptures, engravings, and etchings of demons have always had genitals, very often with perpetual erections (a feature Christian demons derived mostly from Celtic gods) or hermaphroditic features (derived from several other pantheons, including Greek and Hindu).
Even more to the point: the Diablo universe's demons are not fallen angels as you say they are. Angels and demons were spawned simultaneously and separately by the Void. Furthermore, humans are the result of angels breeding with demons.

That picture, Elfen, is very stupid.
Oh. Well, that settles it, then.

‘I'M NOT LEAVING UNTIL WE ALL HAVE AIDS!’—The importance of calling them ‘mercenaries.’
I think only minor un-intelligent demons should have genitals, as if they were like animals. The demons that can talk think the intelligent ones shouldn't have them.
i think they should
cause sometimes the great evils are female ...
like not just diablo but look at other games like starcraft the great evil against all the races was female ... if you remember at the end she says " IT IS ALL MINE AT THE END " !

All the mammal beings should have the genitals in Diablo. Nobody will notice. Andariel's breasts are visible and clearly detailed, yet that's the last thing someone would notice in Diablo 2, so there would be the justification for it. It's all about keeping everything subtle, so nobody makes an ordeal out of it.
From a realistic standpoint demons have no gender thus have no genitals. I've said this a thousand times before: Demons are fallen angels.. "Angels are inequipped" - The movie "Dogma" thus they don't have genitals. Demons breeding is not done through sexual intercourse.

Diablo universe Demons/Angels are not Biblical Angels/Demons. Demons and Angels are as separate as canines are from felines. (That is, the first angel wasn't a graduated Demon, and the first Demon wasn't a fallen Angel.) They had to reproduce to become as numerous as they are in the current time of the Diablo universe. Also; we've seen the female Demons, where are the female angels now? Are they hiding in the High Heavens?

Auriel is an Archangel of the Angiris Council as described in The Sin War trilogy. Because of the physical nature of angels (being made of mostly light and sound energy), its hard to tell the sexes apart, but Mendeln 'gets the feeling' that Auriel is female. She is very sympathetic and caring.
One of the other Archangels of the Angiris council actually appears to Mendeln as 'oddly asexual', as in neither male nor female. His robes and armour are also coloured grey, and in voting he was pretty undecided. He clearly has a strong neutrality about him.
I still dont think demons should have penis's though. It just would look weird. Just dangling when they are walking and fighting. How gross would that be, and what if they got cut off somehow. Would that not piss the demon off?

‘I'M NOT LEAVING UNTIL WE ALL HAVE AIDS!’—The importance of calling them ‘mercenaries.’
If they're reptilian or clothed/armoured/furred: no visible genitals.
Seems pretty simple to me, and exactly what has been done in the past.

Specially if they bring back the witch from the D1, with better graphics can you imagine?:thumbsup:
I do not mean an unnatural calmness.
On that note, I now vote yes.
