It will be end of 2023. Summer at best, won’t be early.

Mark my words. I been saying this since last year.

Awesome, never liked D3 necro, liked D:I necro… so might start with necro in D4 as there is no DH :vulcan_salute:

So Diablo 4 will be released at 2023? That’s kind of earlier than I imagined, and way late for some hype train conductors hoping it will release next week.

My thoughts were alpha/beta this year, and release late 2022/ early 2023, not that far off… was there even an alpha this time? Beta soon, that is so cool! Finally

I’m no longer able to get hyped for games, but I’ll say this cinematic is as on point as the other ones.

I kinda agree. But Microsoft claimed they only showed games that will release within 12 months. So officially D4 will release no later than June 2023.
I would not be surprised if there was a delay of course.

i got trauma from DI hope my wounds can heal from this immoral curse

well screw me, not a class for me but GZ to all the necro lords

I already had my First (not to be confused with Primary, as I dont play that way) class; since that will basically always be the Pure Spellcaster, aka. Sorceress, when given a chance.

Also like pet classes though, and glad to see Necro. Much more so than seeing a Paladin class.

I’d probably rank the announced classes (based on themes/fantasies);
Sorc > Rogue > Necro > Druid >>> Barb

Good art, of course, but, oh look! It’s another strong, independent female character. With half shaved head and hair hanging over the other eye. Will she have a deep Elizabeth Holmes voice to go with it? Every other freaking character in D:I is the same trope. I guess they’ve played Xul out, so he’s getting replaced.

Does Blizzard even make alpha male characters anymore? Or do they all have to be betas? They’re either the fat lovable oaf (ie the Homer Simpson motif), or they’re skinny, weak, emotional. And all eagerly taking orders from a woman, or they’re the bad guy. And for that matter, do they make feminine female characters anymore?

I think I’ve said enough to infuriate half the people here. Fire away.

Is it $0.05 for every skeleton you cast?

If you view the developer showcase you can see they provide an extensive amount of options to allow you to pick the role of your fantasy.
There are very clearly options displayed there for the heavy set broad shoulders male and options for more petite female models. So you don’t have to worry about not being included, they have thought of including you and the options you would like.
