Barbarian Amnesia? - Page 2

Why, at first, did they only let the Barbarian be the only continuing class when he wasn't the only class going through it all?




Keep in mind that this ISNT the same Barbarian from Diablo 2, and to take it further, the Barbarian wasnt originally going to be returning. The Barbarian we know in Diablo 3 started as a whole other class entirely, but the Devs kept calling it a Barb instead of what ever it was meant to be because it resembled a barb so much, that they just said screw it and ended up calling it a Barbarian. Originally the class that we know now as the Barbarian had nothing to do with Mount Arreat or Diablo 2 as a whole.|||Quote:








Yea, I get what your saying there Flux. I actually didn't intend to give off the impression that I thought that 500+ players were defeating Diablo and Baal all at the same time, in the same world and universe and only being able to see yourself and no others. I was thinking more like...parallel universes. Where each user is the hero in their own game/universe.

However, each race (or class) still contributed. Yet, amongst all the Hero's of the 7 classes, they still choose the Barbarian. Insinuating that he was the only race that had any previous involvement. They could have just as easily chose the Paladin, The Sorceress, or whatever..take your pick.

The question is, using my parallel universe theory, who's to say which universe, with different races being the main hero, is the real one? My answer being, they all are. Which is why it's confusing.




The same could be said for Diablo to Diablo II, why the Warrior from Diablo was the one they chose to have defeated Diablo for the story, and went on to become the dark wanderer. Those classes also became unplayable, but didn't just disappear from the world, so I imagine we will see cameos from the other classes throughout the story line.
