Very true. The Monk is like the new-and-improved version of the support class from Diablo 2. I like it: all these new characters, replacing the old ones and bringing new exciting material to the game. It's been a long time since Diablo 2 came out, so I am waiting for what cool new material Blizzard is bringing in with these new assortment of characters and their skills.
The Witch Doctor is not a Necromancer, he's a Witch Doctor: A jungle dweller, who relies on ancient tribal magics and powers that originate from deep in the jungles. The Necromancer is a darker, deathlier character who uses the dead and undead to do his bidding, including fighting and summoning. He's very different, being more towards the macabre. The Witch Doctor is just that: a Witch Doctor. He's like the spooky old man living in the forest, using nature for his poisons and ancient tribal rituals for his spells. Two very different classes, if you ask me. I personally love the fact that all the classes are new in Diablo 3, except the Barbarian. That's a whole different story. The next unheard-of class should be different and new as well. Out with the old, and in in with the new.
As for the Barbarian returning, it makes great sense: It's been many years since the destruction of his homeland, and that battle was the greatest of all battles because of the Worldstone and the power it held inside of it. The Barbarian has returned to avenge his dead comrades and the evil that destroyed his home, so bringing him back into the picture is an excellent move by Blizzard I think.
As for the other classes, I say bring the new ones in! Get some diversity in there, make them cool and exciting, make them different from eachother, and get some cool new spells in there at the same time as well. I can't wait for the last class, I'm hoping it will be something wild and new.
I'd be hoping for another Amazon type archer, but if it was an Arcane Archer who came into being the last class, I could go for that. I loved the ranged combat in Diablo II, and a return of the Amazon or some other archer or ranger would be nice.
