I''m not a troll, I''m an Ogre!

Ogres like trolls, Me thinks dey taste great BBQ''ed!

Looks like it's only going to be 2.5D and not 3D, looks like it will be fun, but I was really hoping the whole game would be 3D, still looks nice I'll play it when It's released.

Diversity is what we need, not cloned Conformity!

Yeah it still looks isometric.

They could be using a 3D engine but render it on a 2D platform to give it a 2D feel though.

It's kinda meh for me really. There are other games out there that I'm looking forward to... original concepts with huge resources backing them up to ensure they get appropriate polish. If Diablo 3 were announced 2-3 years ago I'd burst with excitement but now I think I'll pass.

Grinding mobs for gear is soo last tuesday. A step back from WoW really.

 

Agreed, totally.

A blast from the past and that's about it. There's nothing new to the game (even the fixed camera angle is identical!), aside from the updated graphics.

C'mon, Blizzard...eight years since D2 and this is the best you could come up with?

It is full 3D, just the camera is locked on isometric., you can zoom in and out.  watch the gameplay video will show you. http://eu.blizzard.com/diablo3/index.xml

To be fair we have seen a short game play video, 2 enviroments, 2 classes we dont know that much yet. I think its too early to dismiss it as same'old'same'old.  We dont know how the story will playout, the multiplayer options etc.
