    Is there something wrong with me in that I don't find walls of zombies to be an odd idea? I mean, they're zombies, so they're sticky, right?

    That dude who won the laptop at blizzcon for his speech? He's the next vessel of Cain's immortal soul. He is undying. We will stay a while and listen clear through Diablo four, when the suns are dead and the skys are cold.

    I'm intrigued, what was the speech?

    Oh, I used speech in an awkward way, sorry! He took part in the sound alike contest and rattled through Cain's script about the horadric cube. Dead ringer.

    This is everything I want in a game, and Blizzard knows it. I think the new art direction is good, and fits the mood perfectly.

    Also, near the end of the gameplay video
    the boss rips off the head of the male barbarian and eats it, and throws the body away D:

    It's difficult to make something like that sound better even with the proper application of punctuation.

    It's a shame you can't get the old manual for the original anymore. So much great information.

    Replacement docs has it, and Blizzard authorized them to offer all of their manuals, so it's legit.

    No, no. Not that chat transcript. I'm talking about an actual transcript of the questions asked and the answers given.

    well, they also have a video of the session if that works.

    Otherwise I'm not sure.

    Wall of Zombies is a perfectly rational idea.

    Where do the zombies first come from? The ground. So these chumps just happened to get stuck in the ground.

    But they are in a line you say. That's not weird, many dead bodies are put in a mass grave, or maybe they are cheerleaders that died during a routine.

    I suppose it's a reasonable assumption that the necro has been replaced, as they have similar actions

    but only two classes have been revealed?

    I think it's cool that they are continuing on with the way classes changed from Diablo to Diablo 2.

    For instance, the Rogue became the Amazon, the Warrior became the Barb/Paladin, and the Sorcerer became the Sorceress/Necro.

    Basically, I like that the classes continue to evolve into something different, but they are still rooted in the older games.

    I hesitate to link, because though as far as I know it is perfectly legal it is one of those kind of iffy things...

    but if you google "replacement docs" and go to the first link, you will never ever lack old game manuals again.

    I personally like the doc better than the necro. He has more character.

    EDIT: And by more character I mean he's like Brother Voodoo.
