I was iffy at first, but got to watch the dev panel and see the vids and I think it looks like the monk will be a solid class. Remember too that we don't even know the trees yet, like we have gotten from the other classes; so we can't really know how the building process will work. I imagine one tree will have to do with combos, maybe one a combination of defensive and AOE stuff, the third no idea.

Well, from what I saw of the live feed, looks like the monk uses weapons and hand to hand. He is super friggin fast, there was one skill where he hit like four or five enemies in a second. Another one he was volleying fireballs back at enemies super fast. Seems like he might have a lot of AOE spells to use. Looks like it might be cool to me.

Awesome, thanks mockery. That sounds so cool that just random events, like that little girl, will happen. Also makes me happy that the entrances to dungeons will change; even if most of the outdoors are static. Then people can't just run right to the same location. The new Witch Doctor skills sound awesome, can't wait to see those in action.

Yeah, that's true, so it can't be that easy...maybe they didn't start out at level one either; you know maybe level 5 or 10 or something.

Hmm don?t you guys have a feeling that game seems sometimes "too easy" ?? Like on that 3rd video when a guy was fighting at the end of the bridge there was many monsters there and lots of fireballs hitting him but the health was barely dropping down 8/ just seems little overpowered.

Yeah, I noticed that too, but they might be making it easier so it is more accessible to everyone. If I'm not mistaken they did for the last playable demo, can anyone who played the demo last time confirm this?

New layout looks tight guys...awesome job!!!

Awesome, awesome, awesome....everything I read and see is only strengthening my resolve that D3 is going to kick ass. Man, what a treat, even before blizzcon. Thanks all.

That pin looks sweet. I like how they made the layout look like an old map. I second that it's nice to finally see a sections for Diablo....ahhhh.

I did do the PPV order, I figured what the hell; I'm out of work right now anyways would be nice to see things as they happen.

Anyone notice on the schedule that they have a Gameplay panel on the first day? Hopefully that means a new gameplay video. Here is the schedule on MMO Champion....

edit: looks like they changed it

Well...comes as no surprise to me...I figured it would not effect the other franchises. Nice to have a confirmation though.

Don't forget to mention that there are going to be rebroadcasts during and directly after the show for those who order the stream. Yay!

I can say that none of this really bothers me. Bashiok stated that they are more or less going to give us enough option to where a class can use some weapons other then their archetype. On top of that, if that is going to expand character build possibilities I'm all for it.

I think another thing people need to think about is that they are not going to put specific modifiers on weapons to force people to use them. To me this translates to either weapons being more generic or possibly that they will be left more "undefined " for the use of some type of crafting or other system that can modify how the weapon functions (and no not talking about runes, since those seem to point to being on the character). Though maybe not as much variety can be used by each class, but that in no way in my opinion means they will be A) useless unmodifiable or C) not appear different when modified.

Awesome job on the main page by the way! Looks really good and I like the layout.

Yeah, I know I haven't contributed in forever, but I have certainly wanted to...just time constraints right now. I think I have a few monster pages that I was working on for the D2 bestiary, I just have to finish them. Anyways, thanks for the update.

Well at least something has come up again about the patch. Hope you are right Seth that maybe Bashiok is covering his tail from the comment last time. Yeah, I think most definitely this patch has to be a major one...if it isn't they know that they will get hell from the fans (no pun intended)

I'm 100% for bags...the inventory system in D2 sucks..big time. As to how they are obtained; I think the suggestion by level might be a good one, but I think that would make sense as something that is part of the character not an item.

Say you reach level 20 you get a bigger bag (permanently) 40,60, etc. That's a system that I think might make it something less menial. Otherwise if they're just dropping or a quest item I guess I'm fine with that too.
