Just wondering what part of the new 12 minute Monk gameplay video you guys were most impressed with ?? For me, I think its :
[6:06-7:19]
You wanna talk about action personified -- This Is It !! :cool:
If that doesn't get your Diablo juices flowing .. nothing will !!
By the way, is the new Wizard Shield spell (or whatever Wizard spell everyone says looks different now) shown anywhere ? Dont think I saw the original, so I have nothing to compare it to.
Well... the trailer for the monk class looks total crap compared to the previous trailers. Not only the graphics were horribly bad, it focused only on animation and not on actual gameplay.
The new class is the monk, and that name is nothing original. However when I see the monk plays, I realize this is not a monk. This is some kind of barbarian/mage that just blow up stuff. In a way, this game is like what Mythos should have been.
But let's recapitulate: We have the barbarian which is your typical warrior, a witch doctor which seem a bit original, a wizard which is like an elementalist, and a monk...eh... can I guess the next one? It is going to be archer/ranger and this game is going to have the same class as Guild Wars 1 with random dungeon on flat land.
I played the Diablo 1 and 2 since the day it comes out and for many years. But after seeing the trailer of Guild Wars2, I will buy that latter game over D3. I seriously hope that Diablo3 is only 10% done. If they are like +50% done, then the game has quite a high chance to be a disappointment.
Good luck all.

Monk isn't a terribly original name... but to be fair, none of the classes have original names... Amazon, Paladin, Barbarian... etc.
It is a Shaolin warrior monk, not a church monk. A holy warrior, if you will, which would explain his martial arts (Barbarian aspect) and magic (Magic aspect)
The cinematic trailer's graphics were... a disappointment. But it was amusing, to me, at least.
But the OP wasn't talking about the cinematic trailer, but the 12 minute long gameplay trailer.
I'm not quite understanding how you're comparing Guild Wars, an MMO (Sort of), to Diablo, an Action-RPG, but to each his own.
Although I can't, nor shall I attempt to dissuade your current opinion of Diablo III I hope at least give it a chance instead of ditching it before it comes out, if only for the fact that you were a fan of the first two.
Yes4me, I hate to say this bro, but if you don't like the way Diablo 3 is looking thats your opinion. You really don't have to play it, and its not going to break any of our hearts to hear that...
On a more serious note, I think this guy fits a monk pretty well. He mixes the martial arts of an Assassin with the Holy Magic of a Paladin. Hes got some debuff action going on in some new ways. Maybe he will have some party buffs? Who knows. I just personally think they really stretched the image of what a Monk really is. Its not like they just yanked it from DnD and said "here we go", I think they really did a good job of bringing out what a monk would be in the Diablo world. Super sweet, imo, it will be my first class if the ranger sucks.

There are no stupid questions, just a bunch of inquisitive idiots.
To the one who msays this looks horrible. If you for one second thought thes graphics were worse then the first gamplay graphics et your eyes checked buddy they enhanced the graphics. I seriouslly hate ppeople who base a game of graphics. If Diablo 2 was gunna come out tomorow with the same graphics and it had th best gameplay in any game ever (IMO it does) I'd buy it cause your pying to play a good game not to show off flashy graphics. it is just a bonus we expect as of now. I bet you when the game comes out its gunna be way more polished. First of all they haven't put AA on it yet. Second that was probably run in 1280x720 Res with most qualities on medium to low because they didn't want it to lag up when you spammed everyskill in the game at once. This is just a base line for what to expect. im sure when the game come out itll have either 4 8 or 16 xAA with a max ress of 1900x1080 and all setting on high to give the guy with an ultimate gaming rig of a 5k alienware running dual 4870x2's in CrossfireX on a 62 inch LCD. Just think They are only around 50-70 percent done they are probably finishing up stuff on the third act and puttin up concept art for the fourth act. they still have to finish up the fifth class which should be in the animating stages by now with a plan to build it. Then after they finish that stuff they goo back to square 1 and look over se if its balanced give it some more detail and then send us a beta then we find the bugs and thye fix them then they patch it all up and ship out the real game. It will look probably look much better when it is a final product and if it doesnt i really dont care im going to play it cause i know when i play a blizzard game the gameplay is the best of any game in the world.
EDIT: sorry bout the long post it just isses me off when people don't understand.

you say a LOT of a crap here... :confused:

what do you want? if blizzard put a original name in the Monk, you'll complain that too... i know that.
second. Guild War? please, Diablo game is one thing and Guild war MMO is another...
you guys will complain about diablo 3 until game debut... i know your type
never content with nothing

Lets all respect the guy's opinion. Right now, he is not satisfied with the current state of the game, and said so.
As for his points, the only one I can really argue with is "the trailer for the monk class looks total crap compared to the previous trailers" ... I happen to love it, and know its not the final product and will only get better in the coming months. This is where they are right now in the devolpment cycle, it is not the final product.
As for the other stuff, well I guess it has relevancy. I mean the classes are not original, and the 5th class will most likely be a ranger of some sort ... but then again, this is why we love the series. So ... meh ...

I don't have the video on this computer, but those two parts are most definitely my favourites.
I think there is a mana shield and a stoneskin spell. The Stoneskin was the one that was revamped, I think, but I don't have pictures of it.
Where can I even start?

Also, you can't compare an MMORPG to an ARPG..

Stay awhile, and listen.
And since Blizzard doesn't release crap, he'll jump on the fanboy wagon and claim to have been on it the entire time.
Sigh...
