    Will strength and character supremacy dictate how a monster dies? (The stronger the character, the more the monsters explode, fly off the screen, etc.)

    Acid, they have stated that when you get a critical hit on a monster, it has a different death animation. Also i'm pretty sure they have multiple regular death animations for the same monsters.

    4. What sort of base customization (other than female) can we look forward to?

    They have stated that there will be none other than picking male or female at the start. As to whether there is going to be anything other than getting different gear, I don't know. I'm pretty sure they also mentioned they weren't going to let people dye things (though they did kind of in D2, with gems)

    Question 1:
    Is powerleveling going to be as viable in Diablo 3 as Diablo 2? Powerleveling (Baal or Cow runs etc) has given Diablo 2 a much higher replay value since one could try out different builds fairly easily. If Diablo 3 doesn't allow for a complete respec, and leveling is really hard, it could be difficult to try something new.

    Question 2:
    Are classes going to be pidgeon holed into two or three different specializations (a la WoW), or are there going to be mostly viable sub-builds like a Charged Bolt or Enchant sorceress? Weird builds like this is part of why Diablo 2 is fun, and synergies helped make them viable.
