Trailers: Diablo 3: Demon Hunter

[Smooth Operator]

Well as long as they don't pull another fast one like they did with SC 2 campaigns, can you imagine they split it up into full priced 5 games, each coming with it's own class

...actually I'm hoping Activision guys aren't reading this

 

[Sareth]

I wanna play this... so badly
Great Trailer, Blizzard knows how to entertain the crowd

 

[Vortigar]

And thus they definately ditched the class I was hoping they'd actually fix. This trailer is the nail in the coffin for a spearwielder. Yay, Thus I get to look through the skill-lists and try to get the game to do something it wasn't meant to do again. This oddly makes me both happy and sad at the same time.

Come on, why isn't there a viable polearm in any of these fantasy games?

Sure, I'm going to buy D3, but this class is going down on the bottom of my to play list. I was never interested in the bow amazon or the trap assassin. Seeing them combined makes the choice for first character 1 pick easier. Probably Monk as I don't think they're going to put a Bard in there ^_^

Also:
Sylvanas? I'm just seeing a woman from the school of generic hot chicks. You're mistaking high cheekbones for an entire character.

 

[Count Igor]

Phwoooarr.
Some kind of head-exploding-rope.
I'm so pre-ordering it now.

 

[antipunt]

Oh my...

My brother's going to freak out

 

[Gabanuka]

Looks awesome. Still think mage/monk look better, but still.

 

[Lord_Kristof]

I'm not impressed.
The first video they published of the Barbarians and Witch Hunter gameplay filled me with doubt, but I thought 'Oh well, we'll see what they do next'.
They added the Wizard, which was ok even if waaaay over the top.
They added the Monk at which point I grabbed my head in despair and asked aloud "What the hell are they doing to this game?"
And then this... See, when Maiev from Warcraft 3 had the Fan of Knives ability, it was cool because you could actually count the knives and it did look as if she was throwing them. Here, a friggin CIRCLE of knives appears immediately and for as long as the ability is being used...
I don't mind the grenades, though the Uzi Crossbow is very silly. I never liked the fact you needed Quivers in Diablo 2, but Diablo 1 did archery very well - equal parts realism and fantasy, which made for a gritty game.
Diablo 3 looks very grim (and I don't mean the graphics and atmosphere). Sure, I'll play it, but I keep asking myself why they are doing this to the franchise...

 

[Master_Corruptor]

Oh noes... thay did not make it like a simulation... her crossbows shoot like uzis without reloading... This is so stupid because it don't work like that in real life!!! ZOMGWTFBBQ

Haters gonna hate is all I can say.

Since when did demons and monsters roam your town? Who cares if the characters wear armored high heels?
It all looks damn cool and that is the point. Too bad if you don't like it. There will probably be some other game that suits you better then.

 

[Mathak]

Shitty writing in Diablo?

It seems those terms are....*writer explodes*..unacceptable! *cackle*

Nothing new to see here, not that i mind a side-order of hilariously cheesy dialogue with my demon-butchery.

 

[StrangerQ]

NIIIICE

but still doesnt beat the good ol witchdoc

 

[Doctor Panda]

Like the character model, hate the voice actress. Maybe I'll prefer the male voice better?

 

[Abedeus]

It scares me how many people post "OMG HIGH HEELS" or "ZOMG CHEESY DIALOG" or "AMAGAD HOW DEY RELOAD CROSSBOWS".

Who the hell cares? Diablo is about killing thousands upon thousands of monsters at the same time. That hasn't changed.

 

[Skeleon]

I like her recruitment methods.
Anway, somehow this looks like a ranged variant of the D2 LoD Assassin, sort of?
It also strongly reminds me of Median's (Laz' mod) Crossbow Necromancer.

 

[PurplePlatypus]

Talk about cheesy, and yes high heels and self loading duel crossbows and all that.
The high heels are about the closes thing to actually bothering me. The crossbow I can deal with but high heels are just silliness, there isn?t enough magic in the world to make them comfortable enough to jump around in. At least the rest of the armour looks decent and believable.

Besides I think duel crossbow wielding has enough of the cool factor to disregard that they don?t need to be loaded.

 

[CrazyMedic]

ok I now have my favorite class, I was looking at what appears to be the most op class(the witch doctor) but now I have fallen in love with cross bow shotgun and explosive bolos, in fact I am watching the trailer again.

 

[Retributionx]

Oh look! It's world of warcraft meets diablo.
Fucking rage Every ounce of my hate.

 

[WarpGhost]

That looked rubbish

 

[Nocta-Aeterna]

Looks cheesy awesome, but her credibility is somewhat harmed due to those 7 inch STILLETO HEELS. How does she run, let alone perform acrobatic in those things?

 

[Big Phil]

So Crimsonland it is, then.
