I am going to apologize for posting a link to this terrible Youtube rap about Diablo 3. Apologies!

EDIT: Just removed one sentence.

See I think the male demon hunter just looks extremely agile and ready to jump at a moment's notice. A lot of people just think he looks like he has spine problems! Lol! I just think they were going for a more comic book type of posture for him.

The male DH still share some animation of the female DH. I don't know the story of the male... I wonder if you play with the male or with the female some dialogue changes.

I can't remember off the top of my head, but I'm pretty sure all character dialogue is unique based on class/gender.

You can't stop listening to this? It's stupid... not even catchy or clever.

Thanks for all the replies.

Another question as I didn't get a chance to do any beta stuff and the free beta weekend I was actually out of town ...

How long can I expect to play a character till i get a good feel for that character. I have no idea what I want to play. Is there a good level or a certain amount of hours to where I can say "Okay, this is how the character plays, now I can try another class"?

Did anyone else find the Witch Doctors spider attack extremely annoying in the beta? I still plan to main a Barb, but the witch doctor would be so much more tempting if I didn't have to listen to that constant vase crashing sound.

Also, I know he has other primary attacks I could use, but the spider one was so awesome.

Level 11/12.

Ive been in the Beta for months, but with the latest skill changes this is the best estimate. By this level you have enough skills to know how a class plays.

Play it for like an hour or two. Once you hit somewhere around level 7 or 8 you get a bit more choice in your class and you get to really see more of what it's all about.

I completely agree with you. It's just the voice in the background that I find funny. Sorry.

Hm ... I don't really know. There's a lot of diversity via the runes but I'd wager a lot of the core concepts of most classes are pretty static. By Level 6-7 or so you should have a decent grasp of many of the very basics of most the classes; maybe up to 10-ish but I can't see that really changing things drastically for any of them.

 

[LowParry]

Well that was a neat short animation. Sounds like a short story from the past. Is that all that Titmouse did?

It's a cartoon of some sort. Was released the other day but unlisted so it requires a link.

"Long before the creation of Sanctuary, the Eternal Conflict between angels and demons raged on for untold millennia. Blizzard Entertainment teamed up with renowned director Peter Chung and acclaimed animation studio Titmouse to create this unique vision of a fundamental moment in the battle between the High Heavens and the Burning Hells."

Angels kicking ass.

Taking a lunch break now, but I just uploaded a bunch of finished graphics and tested them and the OT is shaping up to look pretty damn good.

 

[TUSR]

went to my local chapters and they had 2 books in, one was damaged so i got the other.

really happy with the quality of the whole book.

Diablo 3's OT has it's own teasers.

Epic indeed.

And Imperius not caring about others opinions or even debate if what he did was right.

I liked it.

Question to all those that have now watched the video? Anyone else now desperate for a Action Adventure game based around the Arch Angels? Like a reverse God Of War.

honestly, I'll be a little mad if I can't beat up some angels. We've beat up enough demons.

Edit: haven't watched the video, so I'm not biased in that regard. Can't watch, at work.

I'm actually yearning for a tv series akin to mighty max.

hell who am i kidding i'll take anything diablo related.

If Blizzard did the game, sure. I don't think anyone else could do it. Hell, ya know what would be really cool is if they offered some side quests that lets you play the Arch Angels in past events through D3. Instead of telling you the story through Deckard, you play the story out.

Spoilers or not? Is it meant to be watched as a hype-video?

Naw, it's worth the watch. Doesn't really spoil anything. Just a revelation of the sort.

 

[Kalnos]

I doubt that it will be considered spoilers. Seemed to be a prequel to everything and introduction for angels.

 

[yukonrye]

Spoilers or not? Is it meant to be watched as a hype-video?

I think it's purpose is to introduce the Angiris Council.

Thought that animated clip was pretty bad. I like the lore and everything, but the syle of the animation made it look like a shitty saturday morning cartoon.

Quick Update:

Seem like the Sigils are unlocked for those that may have missed the Class Banners in previous weeks. So says Twitter.

They said they specifically wanted to address an audience that might not normally be into Diablo.

Diablo voice seems like the asmodan voice in the black soulstone cinematic...

I don't think that's any sort of excuse. They should've gotten Madhouse or some other studio to do it. It looks too cheap to be affiliated with a modern Blizzard game.

I enjoyed that video. Itherael is a badass.

 

[kyubajin]

Hmm, interesting video. Finally something about the Angiris Council after years and years of demons.

 

[HenryHSH]

I kind of want that animated short to be a series. I enjoyed it, even if the animation wasn't all that good.

Edit: Mark of valor page loads fine using an IE tab but not natively on chrome. Anyone has the same problem?

It's such a silly complaint considering how awesomely fun the class looks and all but ... I just can't get over how much I dislike the WD's voice and dialogue. :|

Really? WD voice and dialogue are by far my favorite. Female WD has my favorite voice in the game.
