I know there is another thread on Diablo 3 but I though it would be best to post this on a separate thread.
Blizzard decided to make a open beta this weekend to stress test their servers, the open beta starts today from 21:01 CEST until Monday at 19:00 CEST.

Had a ton of fun as monk. It really seems like the class for me. Tried Demon Hunter and Witch Doctor, but I didn't like them too much.

The demo is too short

Cleared with a Demon Hunter and my friend (Wiz).

Cleared it with some Awalor newbs. Was kind of a fun night, plus leaping over gaps/into enemies as a barbarian is epic.
Doubt I'll ever buy or play the real thing though. I'd get bored too easily.

Loving the game so far, the co-op system is diamonds!
Since from Amazon it costs a measly 35€ compared to the 60€ in every Portuguese shop I'm considering pre-ordering with some mates.

At first I was kind of dissappointed because it didn't feel like Diablo II at all. The maps we're all one narrow path which is the total opposite in the first act of D2 where you have huuuuuugeeee fields. Then when I entered the Cathedral it started to become much more fun.

Weeping Hollow field and the Cath are procedurally generated places with certain fixed points. Up until then you're kinda in tutorial mode still.
Anyway i had a lot of fun. My monk is lvl 11 right now and i'm really loving him. Dashing around and combo hitting enemies is a lot of fun. I feel like a porting swirling tornado of death. Going to see how far i can get him during the beta. Lvling is already pretty slow but i have a slot of friends to play with so i hope i at least get to like, 15.

Played as both a Barbarian and a Demon Hunter.
Had fun with both, but definitely wanted to see it past lvl 13.
I was never a diablo player, and i was hoping that this would give me a chance to get into the game.

So after playing the classes, definitely loving Barbarian and Demon Hunter. Monk was good, but not my favorite, the WD was fun, but i got a little sick of throwing so many spiders, and i didn't enjoy the Wizard much.
