If they were as good people might of liked them more.
Assassins were good solo, its just that their damage didn't scale with the increased difficulty in 8 player hell boss runs, resulting in a character that contributed significantly less dps with most builds. Add item grabbers in the mix and the fact that you killed far slower than say a javazon resulted in a character that did not have the fanfare it deserved.
I had several Sins, one in each build. but I still spent 90% of my time with my javazon and sorc hunting items to complete them, because they were faster.
Druids and Assassins were my 2 favourite classes aside from Necromancer, heh. I didn't really like any of the other classes.
They were you favorite because you suck at hack and slash. Diablo isn't all about sitting back and letting everything else do the work for you... The assassin was all about laying traps and running in circles avoiding everything. The necro was cool, but the WD is replacing him. So enough said.

I don't think we'll see a second summoner class until the expansion.
There is only room for 5 classes for now, I'd hate for them to tread into each others territory.
I agree i would not want another summon class to push out a mage/ranger/knight.

Those will be the next 3 classes.
I highly doubt they are going to stick to that archetype

Kenzai: about your signature
hellfire expansion pack was made by sierra, not by blizzard. So everything from the monk to the asian items dont necessarely have to be remembered by blizzard, but it can change with the new island on the map, xiansai
just a thought
now on topic: i dont like the face of that druid
i hardly belivie druids are gonna make it to diablo 3 that soon
I for one really like the assassin, but I can definitely understand how other people wouldn't. She seems physically weak, but I really like her skills. The martial arts helps make up for the physical disability, especially with traps and a shadow warrior/master who can essentially double all that. Also, Fade helps a lot, as well as Cloak of Shadows. I could go on, but I think you get the idea
Besides the possible druid that's been talked here I'm pretty sure the mage class is also featured. Check at 3:00, if that guy isn't a wizard I don't know who is.
ROFLMAO
Thats Deckard Cain >_<

Starting at 3:12 there are 2 elemental type of creatures... one looks as if it has humanish legs, thats something I thought another class might be... also I thought the mage was at 3:24

Hmm, yeah you're right. Well I was right also he's a wizard isn't he?
Indeed. He does look like a mage, or how about the guy at 1:16-1:17. The costumes aren't the same color but they do look sort of similar and we've seen many barbs dressed differently.
Yeah I saw that... I was like HOW BAD ASS, I would totally love to play as that dude lol. There has to be a reason why blizzard didnt put any of these images up on the concept art page of thier site =P

Oh don't get me wrong guys. I totally agree; druids were terrible. The only decent druid was nado/hurricane but even then everyone else is pumping out far more damage than you.
As for the assassin, I liked it. I liked the idea of traps n such. The assassin will never replace my lit sorc build though
Although I will say from a single player aspect, the assassin was by far the easiest class for me to beat the game with.
I just realized the mage that I posted is already on the blizz site but the dr00d isnt =)

Scosglen and the Amazon Islands have been turned into desserts, so if either of the Druid or the Amazon classes return in D3 I don't expect them to look like nothing they were in D2.
The beardy guy could be the new mage yes. but the woman is probably a art of a barb woman nothing to do with the game design of her
Why on earth would a barb be holding a staff, and have a pet snake?

Br33ng back me duridz! I'd prefer it to be integrated as a separate specialization for the barbarian, instead of as a separate class entirely though, so you don't lose the marksman-mage-paladin archetype. (Maybe have the shapeshifting in the talent tree.)
That was most definately an NPC, they were showing her during the npc bit. If not it was either, a Barbarian concept sketch, they're not bringing back the god-damn druids because they sucked and they said so that the the barbarian is the only class coming back.
