The latest (last?) interview with Jay Wilson from Leipzig has been posted by VideoGamer.com, and it’s a juicy read. Jay talks about the improvements to make the multiplayer portion of the game more fun, overall loot/item functions, the art direction (briefly), the importance of co-op play, the early design of the Barbarian (with a different class name), showing games while they’re works in progress, his other game faves/influences, and more.
At one point Jay talks about why they brought back the Barbarian but not the Necromancer, and drops a hint about the next character class to be revealed:
A new class quite similar to an old one? Most players think we’ll see a pure mage type character, could that be what Blizzard’s going to show us next? Time, and BlizzCon, will tell.
