Diablo III: The Monk's Cinematic Debut

damn it´s not up yet 

Second!

O_O
Okay that was awesome! Now I really can't wait for Diablo III!

good stuff!

Graphically, that didnt look like a typical Diablo cinematic.  Was that all in game engine?

Pretty crappy trailer for a Blizzard game, I prefer their CG trailers.

These graphics are ridiculously bad. You'd think a company as huge as Blizzard would be able to hire some better programmers for a game as huge as Diablo 3... 

Game is still two years away.  It's just something thrown together for blizzcon, or a placeholder.
 
I don't even care what the next class is.  Monk all the way.

@Tarsier:
Some people are just idiots.  
 
That was obviously a Trailer done in the World of Warcraft engine, which is not even close to what Diablo 3 really looks like. 
  
Do some research before you start jumping on Blizzard dude, because they really have programmers better than you and me.

I said, "DAMN".

Dope.

That looked awful, bad graphics, horrible animation.  If it was that bad why even show it?

I don't care what engine it's running in and why. I don't care if the game is not comming out for 2 years... 
 
Crappy trailer was crappy.

Wait... was that Phil Lamarr? Awesome.

Another Ingame-Graphics trailer, ugh.

A little disappointing that they decided to use the in-game WoW-looking models to make this video.  Blizzards CG videos always impress me but I guess they're trying to hype the gameplay with this trailer.

You guys realize that the entire game is birds eye? It's like rts games, even the best graphic wise are really crap models up close. It's all special effects that make these games,and diablo 3 will be no different. I think from we've seen from the monk gameplay, and remember that this game is not only being worked on, but being blizzard, it's still two years of fine tuning. I think the gameplay looks fine. But blizz really needs to stick with their original cinematics.

That was horrible.

Did the Monk kill the demon with the open palm technique?

say it's crappy and shitty or whatever,  
by the end of the day when the game comes out, you're all going to be sucking Blizzard's dick and swallowing. 
Bitches.

That was pretty cool!

People are going to rip on anything Blizzard does simply due to the popularity of WoW.  This was an in-game cutscene, so obviously it doesn't look as good as the normal cutscenes that take Blizzard years to make.  Surprise: when you zoom in that close to Diablo 3, it doesn't look like Heavy Rain.

Game needs to just come out already.

Even for in-engine, that was pretty weak.

You are all whores. Graphics whores, that is.

Yea I agree, that was pretty bad.  I'm wondering if the Monk is the actual player character and that would look different I the Monk was wearing the Red Robe or something.  But Jez, after that Starcraft 2 video my standards for Blizzard CG were much higher. 

 I'm 100 % sure that they re-recorded the last sounds of the trailer until at least 70 % of the listeners got shivers down their spines. :)

Wow, it looks so incredibly archaic for a cutscene, especially for Blizzard.

If Diablo II came out in 2000 and had the cinimatics that it did, then this trailer must have been produced during...1994?

This is insanely bad. How could they even release that for public viewing?

Oh come on, even I knew he was leading you into a trap.

the in-game cinemas look real shitty!!! but the game looks good.

I thought the trailer looked cool.  I don't care if it was in-game or low-poly or whatever.  The game looks awesome the way it's meant to be played, and you know the prerendered cinematics are going to kick ass.

Reminds me of the Ringing Vale from Anathem. Who wouldn't want to be a warrior monk? At least, who wouldn't want to be a warrior monk after the lifetime of training and sacrifice?

crappy ass trailer... hope they get around to turning everything to cg before the game comes out

Substandard Blizzard trailer right there. Even for an ingame engine, its below average compared to what we have today even on consoles.

Does not feel like Diablo at all.

I understand catering to the lowest common denominator but I had no idea D3 looked this PS2-ish. Hell even the console Baldur's Gate games were more technically sound. And those came out at least 7 years ago if not more. Now I know Blizzard makes fun games, having rocked my socks with Diablo 1&2 so I'm confident gameplay will hold up, but come on with the graphics.

Yer all spoiled graphics lovers damnit. Looks good enough for me in the graphics department as long as the gameplay is good

"Does not feel like Diablo at all. "

I really don't care how the game looks. It's a diablo game. I wore out my mouse with the last one...im ready to kill countless hours of time with this one for sure, regardless how the graphics look.

Meh, Monk seems similar to an Assassin.
