The first Diablo 3 gameplay footage... the Barbarian in action.

11:27 CEST
Whirlwhind's back...

11:29 CESTMore on that armor--treasure chests won't give full sets of armor but the armor shown is really cool.
11:28 CESTOkay...stupid WiFi gave out. Here's a recap of what we missed: custom lootthat looks hot as H-E-L-L, whirlwind skill is in effect for Barbarians,environments are interactive (you can use walls to take down enemies),and they just showed the quest giver from Diablo II. Same voice actortoo!

11:30 CESTNew class: Witch Doctor. Control over disease, summon pets, and control minds of enemies.
11:30 CESTBarbarian now in a dungeon area, where cultists are summoning nasty fat demon who blows away the summoners as soon as he appears. Barbarian using ranged an close attacks to take him down, as well as charge attack. Nice bloody finishing takes down the fat guy.

11:32 CESTFirst pet is the Mongrel... can cast locust swarm on them to give them attack bonus.
11:31 CESTNow we have the Barb and the good Witch Doctor together, Witch Doctor casts locust swarm that devours enemies. Swarm consumes bad guys and spreads automatically... Good tactic against mobs.

11:33 CEST
The Barbarian with a new class: The Witchdoctor.
11:33 CESTEvenwithout pets, Witch Doctor is capable of dealing with surprises...Horrify skill will cause enemies to run like little scared girls.
11:32 CESTWitch Doctor is reminiscent of Necromancer, not in visual design, but in ability to summon pets (like skeletons for Necro).

11:36 CESTDemo is almost done... one more fight to see... Quartet runs into area with living trees. Fire bombs going off everywhere from the two Witch Doctors; Barbarians are cutting things up like crazy. Could we see a boss?
11:35 CESTWitch Doctor and Barbarian working together now. There are many things dying on screen. Now they bring female versions of Barbarian and Witch Doctor. About time the ladies get their chance!
11:34 CESTYou've seen walls of ice and fire... but how about a WALL OF ZOMBIE. Oh God the Witch Doctor rules.
11:34 CESTMass confuse spell will turn enemies against one another.

11:37 CESTThis enemy looks to be about 10 times the size of Diablo from Diablo II. Really nie sense of scale to enemies and the action.
11:37 CESTYES. Huge quadraped demon wearing massive spiked gloves over his hands erupts out of a wall.

11:42 CESTOn-stage hosts are doing shout-outs now to folks from various countries. Hrmm, not much of an ending...
11:39 CESTSo there you go, an amazing demo of DIII. Any other surprises left?
11:38 CEST

后面还有！

11:46 CESTMore dancers, more fire. Music sounds just like the theme to Diablo II, with more percussion to give it some movement.

11:44 CESTAh the finale. A fire dancer takes the stage, performing to what sounds like the theme to the just-announced Diablo III.

Remember, don't try this at home.
