Demon Hunter Cinematic Intro and Gameplay Footage

Posted 2 April 2012 by Flux

IGN has posted a 3:15 movie that appears to be the start of the Demon Hunter’s cinematic intro, followed by a bunch of new gameplay footage. New areas, new skills, new rune effects, and new monsters are shown, after the opening in the storybook style 2D artwork that we’ll see introducing all of the classes in D3.

Three questions:

  1. Are we going to get all the class intro movies released pre-game? There’s no way I won’t watch them if they come out, but I’d kind of hoped to see them for the first time May 15th.
  2. Why must gameplay videos released by developers always show essentially random action and haphazard play? Can’t they ever just show someone who knows what they’re doing, using skills properly and efficiently, for 30 seconds?
  3. Anyone know who the narrator is? I like his voice; he’s no Bastion guy, but it’s pretty good.

  • yeah… i really wish i had the self control to NOT watch this before my first DH character….
    must… not… click… play…
    oh whatever *click*
    ^_^ 

    • Does anyone else wish it was the “Bastion Guy” as well?? Man, that guy had such a great voice for narration…

  • Don’t think too much of this is from the class intro – just a few shots so not as spoilery as you’d think

  • Brace yourself. I am coming.
    If you know what I mean. 

  • i will just watch it one time so untill may 15 i will have forgotten it :D

  • Eh, if this is the intro video for the class im not all that impressed. It dose everything wrong in terms of setting up a story or even pulling you in. Felt more like a commercial then a intro.

    Also would rather see it voiced in first person.

    EDIT: NVM, read that wrong, i guess this is not the actual intro, just some of the footage is from it. Its 6 AM, my bad.

  • Bad voiceover is bad

  • I doubt if this is in game intro. It seems more like something like races overview for SC2 in Blizz site.

  • WOW Shadow Power, Didn’t see that coming.
    But honestly, after seeing this, I am crossing DH from the first to play list. ****s to easy with her ranged attacks.
    Barbarians RULE>>>>!!!!!
    Eye of the Tiger…:-)
