It looks dark and gloomy. I love it.
Screens didnt do it justice. In motion this game looks amazing.

Gold seems really inflated. Maybe it's just accelerated for the beta, but the one guy already has 1,000+ gold.
It'd take hundreds of thousands of gold for it to be worth anything. Compared to WoW at least where the gold is deflated in comparison. Just a different system of economy I suppose. As long as it's balanced...

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Save it for when you actually start playing ♥-Mikey- said:

I like the buff shrines. Powerful buffs, but you only get them for two or three minutes at max.
And just noticed the first unpolished thing: on the Wizard stream, they don't have an icon for the background of the head on the Wizard in the equip screen. It's just a pink square that says "I need an icon". Most unpolished beta we've seen from Blizzard in awhile!

In the one stream with 3 people, one of them is playing a DH. Streamer is a Barb who doesn't know how to play very well, unfortunately. Wizard stream doesn't have commentary though, so it's kind of a tossup.

The sound makes me happy. Some of the monsters have great creepy audio.

I admit this crow that I am digesting is very tasty.
Game looks AMAZING, all my doubts regarding art style (and I had tons of them) *poof* disappeared.

Guy playing the Wizard finished. Took him 2, 2.5 hours at most. He's starting a monk though...
Skeleton King looked pretty awesome. Didn't seem like too difficult a fight, but the abilities and animations were fantastic. Hopefully Inferno and the other later difficulties really pump things up. It only took the guy 2 minutes or so max to kill him, which is kind of disappointing coming off WoW dungeon and raid bosses. He's only really a sub-boss though I guess.
That's one thing that has kind of worried me - I know it's only the first few hours of the game at most, on the easiest difficulty, but I haven't seen anyone even get close to dying. I'm sure it will be tuned the further you get/the higher the difficulty though.

I cant believe that the haters could not have been more wrong.
The game looks beautiful. Yes, even better than in Blizz trailers, surpriiiiise!
The atmosphere looks and feels creepy. What? Did you really think screenshots will be enough to judge this, and a few trailers?
The engine is amazing. Yep, it is not outdated, it is not horrible - it is awesome.
The music is mind-blowing. No Uelmen. Guess what. He is not alone in being genius.
I have some crow prepared. Sit down, eat it.

I never really doubted that it would look good in the end, though I still want to see some things in person on my own screen - the streams lose a lot of the little details that I would like to look at.
Physics are amazing though.

Also, I'm starting to get why they're only going to allow 4 people per game. Just watching 3, there's already sometimes a lot of visual clutter. 5, 6, or more could get insane, especially at higher levels with flashier (and more) abilities.
Not that I was completely against a small limit anyway. Would be nice if they could sneak 5 in there though, so you could have one of each class in your party.

I have died in the first 10 levels of WoW before (though that was pre-Cata, so I don't know what it would be like now, especially with all the experience I have.) But I totally get it. I'd just like to see a bit more of the difficulty curve - too excited for this game.

I just watched that Barb stream for a solid 40 minutes. Game looks AMAZING. He was playing with a wizard + demon hunter friend and got to
where like 50 skeletons came at them all at once. Barb is jumping around sending bones flying everywhere - projectiles from the other two flying all over the place. This shit is fucking glorious.
